While they are great for families, they also make great tents for groups of friends, who need a decent festival tent for example. Size, layout, space The Hi-Gear Zenobia 8 looks more professional with the little rain canopies over the doors. These prevent rain falling inside the tent.The Zenobia 6 does not have this over its doors, so get an umbrella ready if you’d like to keep the tent as dry as possible. The Zenobia 6 is a tunnel tent design, making it easy to pitch (see instructions on pitching a tunnel tent). Electric cable access point, which is ideal if you need to run a heater (see our guide to Electric Hookup Units). Season rating: This doesn’t mean how many seasons it can be used in, but is a rating of its ability to deal with different weather conditions. A tent with a 1 season rating is fine in warm conditions and possibly a light rain shower but not much else, whereas a 4 or 5 season tent will keep a person and their gear safe from extreme winter conditions.

Weight: Obviously, the heavier the tent, the less portable it is. If you're going to a festival, you'll want to go for something 5kg or under. Bigger than that, you'll need a car and more people around to help you pitch it.Vis-a-vis family tents always focus on the sleeping space, rather than the living space. It’s the limitation of the design. The Zenobia 6 and 8 are for those who can accept that the living space is limited, and don’t mind that the family will have to spend most of the time outside the tent during the day. However, both Zenobia tents have a living room large enough for the whole family in case it rains. Size: All tents will say how many people can fit, but we'd recommend going up a size so there's also room for all your stuff. Saying that, plenty of the featured tents have a porch for muddy shoes, and some bigger ones have central areas where you can sit and chat or eat dinner together.
