Hi Boo (Sorry don't know your name lol Embarassed )

Don't know if I can help, but I'll try if you like!

Firstly, how much do you want to spend?
Do you want a frame or dome tent? Or Tunnel?

Look at this eBay seller - this is where we got our tent and delivery was really fast! They also have a website so look a good company.

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/World-Of-Camping

We got this tent http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Sunncamp-Stratus-8-tent-Brand-New-Special-offer_W0QQitemZ8767259071QQcategoryZ82292QQcmdZViewItem but this may be too big for you. We are having to start from scratch so I know where you are coming from! lol

Hi Sandy

Firstly
1. How much do you want to spend?
2. Do you wnat a dome tent?
Here is a link for a dome tent
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BRAND-NEW-GELERT-2006-SATELLITE-6-DISCOUNT-C AMPING_W0QQitemZ8788969184QQcategoryZ16041QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
or do you want a tunnel tent like this?
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SUNNCAMP-VARIO-6-MAN-TUNNEL-TENT-2005-MO DEL-BARGAIN_W0QQitemZ8791284309QQcategoryZ16041QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

These are just examples but show the difference.

You need something which doesn't come from Argos as they are 2 flimsy but good makes are Royal, Outwell, Sunncamp and I'm sure other people will be able to suggeat good makes can't remember a lot of them.

It needs to have a hydrostatic head/watercolumn of 3000mm as this is the pressure of rain it can take if we get a very heavy downpour which in summer can happen.

I usually go for the size by how many people are going plus 1 or 2 e.g 2 adults =3 man, 3 people = 4 man etc....... for adequte space.

I had a dome tent last year but didn't particularly like them so just bought a tunnel tent but it is individual preference.

Need anymore help you can PM me Sandy as at the mo I can't think of anything if I do I wil add or PM you. Very Happy

Hi Sandy

This is the tent I have got but maybe too big for you. I do camping throughout summer so needed to invest and keep a cou[ple of years before changing.
