paulo999 Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 Could be useful to add roughly what type of tent you're after, and your location (in case suggestions might be for places you can take a look see). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizzie0682 Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 A good tent review website is: ukcampsite.co.uk - it has a section on tent review. I find towsure is a good shop to go to as they are all up and pitched so you can have a good look around, then I check the reviews and then get one off ebay! I've got 2 sunncamp ones, and both been really good tents in ALL kinds of festival weather! Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulo999 Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) This is the best one that fits my criteria so far... http://www.outdoorworld.co.uk/sunncamp-ela...der-p-3154.html Basically 2/3/4 man that I can stand up in, so with a living room bit would be helpful Edited February 10, 2010 by paulo999 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucanesque Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 As someone else mentioned the UK Campsite website is an excellent source for tent reviews. Others that are good are Buachaille, and Outdoors Magic (both also have reviews of every other outdoor thing you could think of). I ended up going for a Vango Omega 350, pretty much based on the reviews I'd read as well as size to weight ratio - 3 person and under 5Kg so fits in my backpack; 1 bedroom and 1 reception room so plenty of room for any bits, bobs, and muddy stuff. Got it from Complete Outdoors I found them really helpful and patient in answering some of my stupid questions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

izcuje Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 Hi, just wondering, is there any option where I could rent a good affordable tent instead of purchasing it? I'll be travelling from south east asia and would rather not have to lug a tent and stuff through check-ins; especially with the baggage limitations etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenish Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 I'd be interested in a rental as well. Also coming in internationally and it really doesn't make much sense to buy one at home, nor to ship it back home after the festival.

izcuje Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 both millets and joe bananas have stalls on site, and in previous years you have been able to order camping gear in advance, to collect on your arrival at the festival. definately cheaper than hiring, and as the poster above says, you can donate it to charity afterwards. http://www.millets.co.uk/home.html http://www.joe-bananas.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kat_ Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 (edited) Hi guys. I'm also looking for a new tent this year. Ideally I want one that you can stand up in and has plenty of room for 2 people and for not too much money! I've found this tent Does anybody have one? or used one before? My only concern is the lack of porch. Any views/advice welcome Hmm, don't think that link works?
