I'm thinking of buying the Arkansas 7, but would like to find out some info on the bedroom configuration. Are the 3 bedrooms all completely separate or can the dividing curtains/walls be removed completely, or partially. The 360 view on Outwell website makes it look like a zip on the right divider, but not the left one..

Hope you can help (and save me £699)

We have the Arkansas 5, which only has 2 rooms which are separated with a zipped in divider.  However as it zips to the floor as well there is  a 'ridge' of fabric, which isn't too practical if you need the sleeping pods as one. 

We needed the 2 bedrooms anyway as its taken us 9 years to get DS into his own bed!.

Unfortunately I don't know about the Arkansas 7 third bedroom. Have a look under the tent review, there may be a bit more info?

Thanks everyone. Not sure where the nearest Yeomans to me is, but would like to go and see one erected

Hi there.  We have an Arkansas 7, and yes all 3 bedrooms have dividing rooms that can be zipped away; one goes up, while the other goes sideways, but both have toggle arrangements to keep them away.  We have 2 young children and wanted to see them at night, hence this was a big deal to us.  As they get older, you can always zip them back.  The bedrooms each fit large air beds (one queen size) and make lovely bedrooms. 

We purchased ours from Yoemans in Royston; Sarah and her team are briliant and gave us a deal on the whole package (tent, extra groundsheet, carpet and windbreak).

This tent is simply excellent, and dare I say is probably makes the best use of standard pitch size.

One more tip, use a bit of copper slip on the poles when you use it for the first time (be careful not to spill any); I have never had trouble getting the poles apart thereafter.
