So Mrs Oakie and I have decided to do a bit of campiing next year and are looking for a tent. We won't be camping by bike so it doesn't have to be small. Parameters are:
> must be 1.85 metres tall so I can stand up in it
> two rooms plus a bit of a vestibule thing perhaps
> sleeping room just has to be big enough for two to sleep in with enough space to get in and out
> other room a little bigger, big enough for perhaps 4 people to sit around a wee table
Any recommendations as to what is good and what is not?
Oh yeah, to ensure comfort we're looking at tents that are ambitiously advertised as 4 to 6 man tents.
