ce2011 Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Hello, I need to buy a new tent as the only one I've ever purchased and used on one camping trip is battered! It's a 4 person Regatta pop up tent and was quite surprised as I thought it was a good brand, plus I didn't use it much. I'm looking for something similar, min 2 person, for light use and no more than ?70. I've seen a few online at Decathlon site with good reviews and water column (I think that's right). Has anyone purchased one from here before? Good or bad feedback would be appreciated!ThanksCamille Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/157225-tent-advicerecommendations/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidKruger Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Cheap tents are a huge gamble when you're trying to keep yourself and your stuff safe/dry from the elements.I can't suggest cheap (or at least, as cheap as you advised) tents, but can recommend Coleman tents if you're after a 4man or thereabouts.

Seabag Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I just bought a Coleman 5 for about ?75 at CostcoIt's one of the super easy to put up things*apparently*I've also bought from Decathlon too, good service generally there.

ce2011 Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 Thank you both very much, I am having a look at Coleman tents now and hopefully the next tent I purchase will last a bit longer!

malumbu Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Force 10.20 years ago you could go to Blacks or the YHA shop and get great advice. Sadly they are no longer proper outdoors shops.Alternatively go to Decathlon or Halfords where you can buy a whole festival camping pack for two and six (pence) and then just leave them behind.
