Hi,

I think I posted in the wrong forum yesterday :-) I'm after any recommendations for a 2/3 berth tent, under £70 realistically. I already own a SunnCamp Invader 600 which is our family tent however I'm going to be taking my eldest son (3 years old) camping just the two of us and the SunnCamp is far too big and far too difficult to put up by myself.

I have noticed a Vango Sigma 300 at my local shop for £52.95 and there is a Lichfield Apache in Argos (340/2241) for £37.49. Does anyone have any views on these or alternatives?

Thanks :-)

Hi

I don't have either, but have the Vango Alpha 400 which is very similar to the Sigma. You can get a Alpha 400 for £49.95 on eBay

We just fit a double and a single airbed in ours, could probably fit 4 in if on mats. I can put ours up in half hour on my own, so will be easy enough for you to put up on your own. If you have a look on my gallery think there is a photo with my son.

Thanks...I'll have a look at that one.

I liked the look of the Gelert Rocky 4 which I can get for £50. 

What about the Coleman Rock Springs 4 with SIG and rear entrance and secondary storage area (so you use the front porch for relaxing in). Doesn't have covers for the windows though and its work making a condensation catcher to suspend over the mesh roof of the inner. Otherwise a nice little tent - £62.99

There's a 3 man version too.
