About this deal
The tent is waterproof in heavy rain, with a 2000mm hydrostatic head and fully taped seams on the flysheet and groundsheet. This would be a bit tight for 5 adults – 60 cms per head – and I don’t recommend the Rydal 500 as a 5-person tent.
Tunnel tents are an excellent option for camping enthusiasts who require a spacious and comfortable shelter.
The tents feature multiple entrances and windows, providing excellent ventilation and natural light. On the other hand, even with 3 kids you have plenty of space – parents sleep on one double mattress, kids can sleep on the other one, but side ways.
The Eurohike Sendero 6 Tent is a spacious and durable tunnel tent that can accommodate up to 6 people. The Eurohike Ribble 200 Tent is a lightweight, 2 pole tunnel tent that is perfect for 3 season camping. The Eurohike Ribble 3 Tent also features Eurohike's Interactive door which can be used 4 ways: as a sun shelter, a porch area, rolled up, or fully closed.Also, when you walk on it, minor stones can crack through the groundsheet, and then water will easily seep through. The Vango is slightly bigger, and slightly pricier, but there is an option to attach a bespoke awning to the Vango Icarus 500 which increases versatility as well as improves weather protection. With fully taped seams and a sewn-in, waterproof groundsheet, it is completely waterproof, making it ideal for couples or small families. There is one large side door and one main door, so be mindful of the wind direction when pitching the tent.
