Hi

I’m looking to buy a tent & wondered what people would recommend.

For 1 or 2 people so probably a 3 berth to allow a bit of space & relatively easy to pitch. Mostly UK & maybe some Alps use & although likely to be valley/campsite camping rather than in the high mountains I’d like something relatively stable in view of the high winds we get these days! Defo won’t be used for backpacking so weight not an issue.

Two friends have Khyam tents & say they’re great but I’ve not seen anything about them in the trade mags so don’t know what to think.

Anyway would appreciate any suggestions/recommendations please.

Sportpursuit has Jack Wolfskin Eclipse III for 75 quid which is quite good deal and it seems to be a bombproof tent (although very heavy!).

Fully Geodesic - perfect for two people to live in. Me and my Fiancee spent two weeks in Switzerland traveling about, carrying the tent and using valley campsites. Like your own little palace
