Especially here in the UK, where so many beautiful and picturesque locations throughout the country are waiting to be discovered. Campers, or 'glampers' often prefer cotton canvas as it's durable and breathable, providing excellent protection from UV rays but also retaining heat to keep you nice and toasty in the night. It basically does everything it says on the tin. It isn't the easiest contraption to pitch but made a good fit to my Horizon 6. When it was up it was perfect on one side but out of skew on the other side. I had a few attempts to correct it without a result so gave up. Once fitted the porch does fit correctly & it fits nice and snug, we used the porch in anger for the first time last week for 7 nights in Cornwall, We had all types of weather strong wind & heavy rain and sun, A four-person tent is often comprised of two separated spaces and should be sufficient for a family of four.

If you like the Gelert Horizon 6 or want to a different colour, then this tent is actually the same as the Gelert Horizon (both Hi Gear and Gelert have the same manufacturer). The Hi-Gear Zenobia 8 looks more professional with the little rain canopies over the doors. These prevent rain falling inside the tent.I would strongly recommend that if you have the time familiarise your self with the correct fitting by installing prior to your first outing will save you loads of time and undue frustration,

Its climate control design means it should be 5C cooler during the day and 1C warmer at night when comparing to the outside temperature. Snug fit is hard to achieve although we've found positioning the elasticated sides alongside the main tent poles as the best fit (so that the porch is aligned over the main tent door and side window) A glamorous all-inclusive beach holiday abroad might be on many people's wish lists, but nothing can beat the great outdoors.

The space inside is good though, it did the job we wanted, we easily fitted our kitchen unit and table/chairs in too with space between. The windows are really good, large with covers for night times which we liked, and a large door.
