My daughter has decided her and her bf would like to invest in a tent. They are going away in a small 4 man tent (Lichfield Apache 4) that we were given a couple of years ago, which is okay, but they would like some living space. We went to Winfields today and they saw a Gelert Horizon for £200 which suited their requirements, just wondered if anyone could recommend anything similar, maybe a little cheaper.

Thanks in advance.

Hi there, we love our Hi Gear Voyage 6. There's loads of living space and the bedrooms are big too. With ours you have the option to remove a pod and still have two doubles.

If it is just the two of them I think a Vango Icarus 400 would fit the bill

Hi
You might like to have a look at the new Coleman Galileo 4 which is highly thought of by a uk campsite member
