I am looking for a tent which would be suitable for one person to erect. The tent should be large enough to store equipment inside whilst I am away. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Unless backpacking look for a suitable 2-3man tent, you will find that no matter how much extra space you have got you will end up using/ being glad to have it!

I would second that, if you're car camping a 3 or even 4 person tent can give that extra usability, I'm on my own & use one of these.
I won't bang on about it now, I'm sure everyone is all too well aware of how much I rate this tent

Nutgone I'm looking forward to your review too. I see it's big enough to put both a double and a single airbed in, which makes it a sizeable tent really.
I'm looking forward to my review as well! I've only given it the most basic of tests, it looks like it's going to be a baptism of fire, in France, for my Regatta 4 man! (Fingers really tightly crossed!)
God I hope it works! Otherwise I'm going to look pretty silly . I will review it either way though, probably from wherever I can get free wifi in France
For car camping on my own, the Vango Force Ten mk 5 is perfect: lots of room for one, it's cotton and pitches in ten minutes.
For backpacking I've found the Crux Storm to be surprisingly good but as it's a geodesic, it takes a bit longer to put up and it's a bit of a struggle to get the poles into their mountings but I've got the ghang of it now.
Take care

I am a solo camper and have a Khyam Chatsworth, the quick erect system and can get the tent up and everything in it within an hour. I love it, its a four berth so plenty of room for everything, me and my dog.

I used to use a Khyam one touch 2 man dome tent, some years ago (I think the system was quite new back then), it was advertised as being able to erect in a minute, which could actually be achieved. Fantastic tents. I think I will put one on my wish list for when my finances improve. But for now the Regatta will do fine, it's nice & roomy & very easy to put up.
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
