Tents for WHW need advice

[wilkie]

Planning on doing the WHW in the next four months with the wife, just looking for advice on a good tent preferably £100 or under if thats not too unrealistic

[nzt2011]

My advice would be look for a really good tent, shop online and try and find it for the cheapest price possible....then there is a certain "outdoors" website which is pretty popular who will price match + 10%.....I managed to get a semi geodesic tent which RRP's at £270, for £90.....result!

WHW, anything double skinned...single skin and leaks and you are game's a bogey.

Hey Wilkie, I actually recently started a thread in Gear & Equipment for the Best Tent Under £100...I was looking for a 2 berth just to have extra space for my pack and went for the Coleman Cobra 2 in the end, £64. For under £100 the 3 berth version may be a good call, under 3kg in weight, sets up flysheet first and water tight from the sound a lot of reviews...
