Hi now we are comeing to the end of 2014 and looking for a new weekend tent for next year we have been using a Vango Icarus 400 for the weekends and for longer stays we have a Kamp Filey 5 Air
And for next year we are looking for something in size between the two and quick
and light to pitch we go both types of camping with or without a EHU your thoughts would be very helpful and now there are just the two of us and one small dog

Id just take the Filey, seeing as its inflatable- you wont find much quicker to put up than that?
------------- March 2015 Aberford 1 night
April 2015 Skipton 3 nights
May 2015 Aberford 3 nights
July 2015 Lake District 7 nights
August 2015 Aberford 3 nights
I'd also just use the kampa that's one of the reasons we went inflatable so we only have one tent

May Peak District Duke of York
May Holland Delfse Hout
June Cotton Arms Nantwich
july/aug Cornwall Pentewan Sands

Hi thanks
for the feedback why my wife is looking for some thing in between the two size
tents we have, the Filey is 33.80 KG not a tent you can just pop up the attic
and chuck it in the back of the car on a Friday
night and it is a big tent to dry if you pack up on a wet dayhad it in the house wet for a week before we could
pitch it back up outside to dry
Our weekend tent is the Vango airbeam flux 500 its a super tent for three of us sleeping on wide camp beds.
It's mainly bedroom, but with a very small porch area - it looks so compact from the outside but feels quite roomy inside. I did a review on uk campsite + there's photos
There is also Flux 300 version which is narrower and not enough height for standing
