...we have the pegasus 6 which is the same tent as thye oswald bailey fiesta 6 by the way and its much cheeper at oswold bailey. our vesion as there are at least 4 that we have encounterd hasthe detachable groud sheet. we have had problems with one which the toggles came away from the sheet but we had this replaced by the retailer with out any fuss the problem with the sewn in groudsheet is its vey easy to trip over with all the big door. the doors are infact the bigest plus to this giviong the tent an open and airey feel. it is a joke to call this a 6 man tent thogh 2 adults plus two weeks worth of lugage and two kids is more than enough. The tent has the added advantage that if your a smaller group you dont have to hang the second inner tent (which are bothy bath tubs by the way)be warned though although this fits on to a standared...

Advantages: spacious family tent Disadvantages: fits 6 easily, 8 would be uncomfortable
...When my husband first suggested camping, I suggested a divorce, but I was amazed at just how much I enjoyed it.
Of course it does help if you've got the weather, but also perhaps most importantly a tent like this really helps.
The Wynnster Cambrian tent, is a real good family tent, When stating how many people tents will hold, I personally think these are a bit over the top if you want to be comfortable, If you've got a family with 2 or 3 kids, I would suggest a tent such as this 8 man tent, as the extra space is a good advantage.
Standing height in the main living area is 210cm, which is ample room for the average person.
Its weight is 25.65 Kilo so is quite a weighty item, and definatliey not one for the average backpacker, But I found fits comfortly in the boot of the car, after all it is a Family tent.
This is a dome design tent...

Advantages: Logical to put up, spacious to be in Disadvantages: Bit big for the odd weekend!
...you'd know... Vango, Outwell, Khymer, Coleman, and of course, Wynnster. During our previous visits we'd always seem to spend more time in the Mercury 9 than any other. We never understood why, but there you go. There were bigger and flasher tents around, but it just caught our eye. Maybe it was the shape. Or the layout inside, or the little touches that impressed us.
Obviously, we bought one, otherwise I wouldn't be writing this!! LOL!!
Just a note: We bought our's in 2003 for £300. They have updated the tent a bit since then, including a different colour scheme. However, looking around the later versions, there seem to be only minor differences between them other than colour.
What you get:
Actually, quite a lot. As well as the outer and inner tents, obviously, you also get a repair kit, all the guy ropes, a full kit of tent pegs, all...

When (if) you read the bible, you often come across characters that pop up only once, and are in the spotlight for a moment, and then disappear again... but you suspect they have more story to tell than is recorded. For example, the story of Joseph (and... more
They say you either love it or hate it. Le Mans, that is. Well I was there in June 2005, watching this race. I was also there in June 2004, and June 2003, and...... OK, OK, so I'm a Le Mans nut. 2005 was my 20th consecutive visit to Le Mans - every... more
