A large automatic family tent with one specification that stands out: an 8000 mm waterproof rating on the outer. Most family tents sit around 2000 mm, so this is built for genuinely persistent rain rather than a passing shower. The floor is 210D Oxford at 3000 mm, the inner combines Oxford with high-density mesh, and the whole thing measures 380 by 260 cm outside with 200 cm of headroom. It sleeps five to eight.

Product Highlights
8000 mm Is a Lot
Four times the rating of a typical family tent. Combined with a 3000 mm Oxford floor, it is specified for sustained heavy rain rather than the occasional shower.
Up in Minutes
An automatic frame means the tent largely erects itself, which matters far more on a big tent than a small one, especially when you are pitching in the rain with tired children.
Stand Up Inside
200 cm of height across a 380 by 260 cm footprint means adults can stand and move around properly rather than shuffling about on their knees.
Mesh Where You Need It
The inner combines 210D Oxford with high-density mesh, so you get airflow and insect protection without losing the structure of a proper inner tent.
Anchored Properly
Eight bold aluminium ground pegs and five guylines. On a tent this size, guying out is what keeps it standing when the weather turns.

Important Information
- Only the five to eight person size is available here, although the supplier range also lists smaller versions. Contact us if you want a three or four person version and we will check availability.
- A packed weight is not listed. At 113 cm long packed, this is a substantial tent to move, so plan on driving to your pitch.
- Check the pitch size before you travel. A 380 by 260 cm footprint plus guylines needs a generous plot.
- Use all eight pegs and five guylines. A large tent catches a great deal of wind if it is not guyed out properly.
- Automatic frames need care when folding. Follow the supplied instructions rather than forcing the poles.
- Do not use open flames, fuel-burning stoves, or heaters inside the tent.
- Dry the tent fully before packing it away. Large tents hold moisture and will mould if stored damp.

Five to eight, across a 375 by 255 cm inner.

Can I stand up inside?
Yes, the tent is 200 cm high outside and 195 cm inside.
How quickly does it pitch?
It uses an automatic frame, so the structure largely erects itself before you peg and guy it out.
