We have returned from ten weeks away in a two berth caravan round France , Spain and Portugal and enjoyable as it was I would be much happier going back to a tent.
We enjoyed our Icarus 500 and found the Outwell Oakland a wee bit big and wondered if anyone had thoughts on Air tents for two with a bit of room ?
Thanks in advance.

After enjoying our new Vango Edoras 500XL Airbeam this summer we are now looking at getting a smaller Airbeam for just weekend/short trips (there are just two of us) an we are rather attracted towards the Kampa Brean 4 Air (2016 model).

I agree with the Kampa suggestion above lovely little tent. I would also suggest the Royal Portland 4 as an alternative for you to compare and contrast :)

The only Air Tent that I would consider would be a Karsten, all the others that I have seen have been toys in comparison.

As ever, you pays your money and makes your choice!

Darren,

Do you have any images of the tent as even the Royal website and catalogue only have one photo of the tent.

I hear if you've got 2 grand spare you can get a half decent Karsten

Getting old isn't fun but the alternative is much worse.

If you're after a good sized tunnel tent, with lots of windows - a Karsten isn't going to provide that. So there's room for all types.
