...my older son would like one to camp next to us on holiday (he's 11 and wants his 'own space'!) and it would save us having to put the big one up in the garden if just he and a friend want to camp out.

Can anyone recommend a decent spacious 1-man, or 2-man pop up tent which will give some reliable protection against the British weather?

Thanks

Decathlon have loads on their website around the £50.00 mark hope this helps.

Dance before the storm and don't look back to where you've been.

If you can keep your head when all around you are losing theirs, you obviously haven't grasped the gravity of the situation.

I don't want it I just need it.

Definately look at a double skin one - cost more but definately worth the extra money.

Friends of mine have this one for their daughter:
