Which two person tent?

[flounder_al]

I'm looking at doing some wild camping/fishing later on in the year around the north coast of Scotland. I'm looking at getting a two person tent (purely for the space) and just wondered what you guys n gals would recommend?

I've got about £150 to spend and like the look of the Vaude Terratrio 2 tent. Any others i should have a look at? Idealy i would like one that goes up 'outer sheet' first. Just in case it's raining and i don't want to get the inner wet.

Wild Country Zephyros 2 pitches all in one with inner inside.

I would also consider a SilMinipeak or SilHexpeak made by Luxe Outdoors

I have a vaude Taurus, excellent tent for three season backpacking. bomb proof. They know how to make a tent.

edit: just googled terra trio and it is a Taurus, just a new name! so yeah, buy it

Have a look at Vango 2 man tents. They are all decent tents at around the £100-£120 mark. Coleman Cobra is a bit cheaper at £70-80.

The Snugpak Scorpion 2 is a great tent and is Fly first. Might be a little above your price range but you may be able to find one for the 150 mark if you shop around a bit.

The Wild Country Zephyros 2 gets good reviews and can be had for around £120 and a fitted ground sheet is available for it too

They are indeed Dave, but very often when someone gives a budget on BCUK for kit its totally ignored so I thought I'd just go with the flow.

Personally I'd go with a Vango or Coleman if in the market for a small tent.

a pyramid tent. Or something with good headroom.
