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!
..., both can be tied back individually. The 5 man inner also has ties for a seperator sheet to turn it into a 2 man and 3 man space, though not fully enclosed.
Living in it
As you can imagine, a tent this size is pretty comfortable for a normal size family. With table and chairs, everyone can sit down in comfort and still leave a kitchen area. If you had the number of people in it Wynnster says it can hold, then it would get a little cramped around a table. Most tent manufacturers are a little optimistic about the number of people a tent can accomodate and this is no different. However, 6 or 7 people should be OK. The three of us and a dog can spread out in glorious comfort, though.
Like any other tent, it can get cold at night and pretty warm in direct sunlight. The ventilation the tent has works well, but it does need to be fully open...

...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...

I remember well watching this in my early teens, and a lot of the time getting all weepy with a friend of mine after school. I can remember watching this on TV on a Thursday after school was over.
I'm sure most of you have watched or heard of this... more
