Hi I went camping with some friends last weekend and now my 10 year old daughter is hooked.  I want to buy a decent sized tent for the 2 of us with storage space under £80.  \

Can anyone recommend a tent was looking at Vango Alpha, and Coleman Bi-space 

Help!!!17

Not sure about which tent but wanted to say hi as I'm new to camping too...my sons are outside now in my partners smallest tent.  He's got us into it and I'm becoming obsessed!

I'll ask him tomorrow to recommend a tent but hope you get some replies from seasoned campers soon.17

Welcome everyone to UKCS

Tent suggestions are bound to follow (sorry I only do 'big' ones or Canvas) but many are off camping for the weekend so if it's a bit quiet you know why.

Hiya, if its just the 2 of you how about the Hi-Gear atakama 5. Its only £79.99 in Gooutdoors and I saw it in the flesh and looks a great little tent. I know its a 5 man but that is literally 5 people lying down side by side. It would easy fit you and daughter, 2 beds and all your gear in the bedroom and then the living bit would be clear for your chairs etc in bad weather.

You may well end up taking a friend for her one day so still space??

Any help??
