Just like to put this post up regarding our first camping trip in our newly purchased Hypercamp Eldorado tent.  Despite the bad weather reports for Keswick at the weekend we were eager to try out our new purchase before our main camping trip to Cornwall very shortly.  What can we say, the weather was terrible - very strong winds and driving rain however our Eldorado stood it's ground well and remained bone dry inside (without the need for weathering it first).  Brilliant tent for two people, fantastic price, excellent customer service from Obelink, I can't see any other tent on the market which offers such quality for this price.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

That's an excellent recommendation. Bet you're pleased with your decision. I've been tempted by the Hypercamps for ages. Did you find it cramped inside during the bad weather?

There was only two of us and so there was ample room... we also purchased a tarp from Obelink but never took it with us but intend to use it for extra outdoor living space in the future.  The tarp is also excellent value at only 48.00 pounds

Eldorado or Rosa4, they are both excellent value for money. I've yet to hear of a dissatisfied owner. Only slight downside is the number of guying points. On the plus side though, that tent is going nowhere no matter what Mother Nature throws at her17
