Well finnaly did it, we have bought a Bear Lake 6 this evening from Campingworld at a great deal (thanks Dave).
We have been gradually upgrading as funds allow and some times when they didn't lol, but for the last couple of years we have been longing over a bear lake 6 but realy felt we could not justify it for just the two of us or for one night camping trips, but on the way to Sussex we called into Campingworld just for a look as you do before going onto our camping site for four day trip in our Nevada L. On our last trip some very friendly children next to our pitch kicked a football at our tent a number of times and on arrival back one day we found the porch poles over the side door broken and also noticed a small rip in one of the windows so we knew even before setting up our tent we had a couple of problems but then as we put it up one of the arch poles broke yet again so we taped it over and spent the whole time worring the wind would blow it flat but luckily the weather was great and we had a lovely time , but it finnaly made our minds up for us that we wanted solid poles and canvas on any future trips, so this evening we placed an order and will recieve our dream tent on Tuesday now cant wait for our next trip in September (just two weeks away) then another in October and hopefully every month from then on.

Nice one Aaron that is the tent I want! No point me getting one though as id have to pitch it by myself, mrs wont camp kids are too littlle to help! Enjoy!
I now have a case of tent envy! We have a bear lake 4 and really wish we had gone the extra mile and splashed out on a BL6 for that extra bit of space you get.
Thanks for the comments, I am sure Mandy and I will be pleased, have even brought our trip away forward to next weekend as can't wait till the following week lol.
Going to show Mandy your reply Wrs100 as she was not to happy I spent an extra £60 to get the BL6, but felt the extra room would make a nice on suite wardrobe for her hee hee thats my excuse and sticking to it
Happy camping all
Aaron & Mandy

Congratulations! We looked at that tent, and it was infact that tent that swayed us into joining the 'lake' family end of last year. I was happy to go with the bear lake 6, but with 4 of us going away for 2 weeks at a time, we then got to thinking that maybe the boys would need a bedroom each of their own, so we opted for the wolf lake instead. OMG! Fab tent!! I'm really impressed with it. Only thing is, we have a small outwell colorado tent just fo wekends, and i no longer want to use that one now, as i am totally and utally in love with the wolf lake 7! I'm hoping that the hubby will agree with me in time to come and there for, i think i may start to look for that small 'lake' tent, just for the weekends!!!
Happy campign to you, as i am defo sure you'll love your purchase even more when you finally get to camp in it!!
------------- love shopping, love a bargain even more!

Topic: bear lake 6 yippeeeee
before going onto our camping site for four day trip in our Nevada L. On our last trip some very friendly children next to our pitch kicked a football at our tent a number of times and on arrival back one day we found the porch poles over the side door broken and also noticed a small rip in one of the windows 
so we knew even before setting up our tent we had a couple of problems but then as we put it up one of the arch poles broke yet again 
so we taped it over and spent the whole time worring the wind would blow it flat but luckily the weather was great and we had a lovely time 
, but it finnaly made our minds up for us that we wanted solid poles and canvas on any future trips, so this evening we placed an order and will recieve our dream tent on Tuesday 
now cant wait for our next trip in September (just two weeks away) then another in October and hopefully every month from then on.
