My friend is looking for some advice. He is joining us for a festival at the end of July and needs a tent. His girlfriend would ideally like to stand up in one to be able to get changed comfortably! I wholeheartedly agree but I have an Montana 5 so easy for me to comment!
Does anyone have any suggestions. They liked the look of the teepee on the Argos website but I was concerned that it didn't have a sewn in groundsheet.
Any help much appreciated. Thanks

The Licata 400 is a lovely tent for 2 people - very easy to pitch, SIG, standing height, massive windows, good ventilation, measures 4.8m x 3m, bedroom can be divided with curtain. If you search the Net you can find it for less than £90 - BARGAIN!!
I'll second that good tent. The Nevada S is on sale at Towsure for £159 in the new Mocha colour. I rate this tent highly and it's my favourite one to take with me when I solo camp.

Hello fin36.
My wife and I had decided we needed a bigger tent.
The dome one we still use, whilst being light and compact, is fair for a weekender.
However my wife is not keen on dressing/changing whilst horizontal.
I did some research, and ended up with a short-list of 5 possible tents.
In June, we attended a Tent Exhibition and checked out the models.
My first choice, 'Coleman Waterfall 5' was not as suitable as I thought.
However, when I noticed the Outwell Virginia 5 was on offer, I checked out the Minnesota 4 which it seems based on.
This one ticked all the boxes for both of us.
Full SIG (Bathtub type)
Detachable bedroom pod, also with Bathtub SIG
3000mm HHP
2 metre head height (I'm 5ft 14ins), and still I can stand fully erect in the pod.
Sufficient space in the pod for our 2 mattresses and kit.
I did purchase King Poles to use the door as a canopy.
Can be assembled by one person. (Takes me about 10-15 minutes for main guying)
I have posted an image or two on this site.
Oh! It is nearly half the cost of the Minnesota.
So, one to consider?
Kind regards James
------------- In the beginning there was darkness.
Then I bought a tent.
