Hello all, I know there have been quite a few posts about lightweight tents but I would appreciate any further advice if possible from you lovely people. My friend is going on a camping tour of Holland on his bicycle in a few weeks time and requires a 2 man tent. It needs to be lightweight, small pack dimensions, and preferably around the £40 mark or less if possible, as money is a bit tight. Can anyone offer any advice?

Cheers

Thanks so much for your reply. That does look like a great one, although as you say a little bit more than £40. He's found a few others too which we are looking into;

All the best lightweight tents around 1Kg plus. Such as Hilleberg .Terra nova are top class tents . " But very dear "  Out of most of our price reach .

So I suggest you look at the Vango range .

As I bought . A Vango Alpha 250 Tent to go cycling and camping out . It cost me £30. Its got plenty of room as a two man tent well made .

Unfortunately . It Is 3:6Kg . But If you want comfort . Its good value .

How about this......similar to the Vango Banshee 200 which I have. Good little tent and within budget.
