Does anyone have any experience of these two tents, can't quite decide between the two. Is there any problems with the groundsheet in the Mallard 6 only covering the living space and not going under the bedrooms. we are a family of 2 adults and 2 children (8 and 11) and want to use it as a weekend tent. Just keep swaping and changing our minds!

Thanks for any help

No problem with the groundsheet only covering the living area - this is normal.

Personally, I would prefer with that style of tent a complete groundsheet (SIG) and hence would go for their Anglesey model (same design, just more comfort).

Both look really nice weekend tents, only thing I noticed that might make a difference was that the venus 5 is slightly taller.  If it was me it would just be a case of which one can I get cheapest!
