Product Information

Camp in comfort with family or friends with this spacious five-person tent, complete with darkened bedrooms, a spacious storage area and an easy-pitch design. You can also use the divider to separate a storage area, but obviously, the 3-berth master bedroom is only suitable for a couple.

Unfortunately when I did go to put it up one of the poles was broken which I did manage to fixed temporarily, also the bedroom did leak drops of rain. The bedroom was already attached when I put it up which was strange as everytime I've bought a tent there separate which made me think the tent has already been set up and returned.Other manufacturers would not recommend ‘frequent use’ ie. more than a few weeks across the whole year. UV light of the sun can (will) break down the waterproof coating, so if you pitch the Rydal 500 in your garden in May, it is likely that it will lose some or most of its waterproof coating by the end of summer. Eurohike Rydal 500 Porch The material the product is made from is often a sign of the quality for 5 – 6 Person Tents. Take a look at the product details over at Go Outdoors to get a feel for this. Polyester is lightweight but not breathable if there is a coating applied, so condensation is going to be an issue especially with a sewn-in groundsheet.

The Eurohike Rydal 500 is a spacious five-person tent with ample storage room, designed to provide a comfortable camping experience for you and your family or friends. We’re really pleased to have scored Eurohike Rydal 500 5 Person Tent so highly, givimg it 9.9 out of 10, making it well above the average for all 5 – 6 Person Tents. As for pitching, the bedroom is pre-attached and the tent is ‘flysheet first’, which means that the bedroom stays dry even if you pitch the tent in rain. What’s not so great – Eurohike Rydal 500 issuesIf you are up for a bit of DIY instead of hassling with customer services, you can seal the seams yourself. I touched on it already, the Rydal 500 offers a decent amount of space for an entire family. Sleeping area There is one large side door and one main door, so be mindful of the wind direction when pitching the tent. The windows are quite small and there is no window on the sidewall, which can make the living room a bit claustrophobic when the it’s cloudy, especially with this dark blue flysheet. The Eurohike Rydal 500 is quite lightweight and easy to carry in its carrybag. It weighs only 14.6 kgs, and the carrybag is not bigger than 75cm x 33cm x 33cm, so it fits into the smaller boots too, or you can put it in the roofbox if you’d like to.

We bought this as 2 man because we wanted a tent tall enough to stand up in, space for our suitcases, a double airbed and floor space for when you're getting dressed. All of which this is perfect for. The Vango Icarus 500 is very similar to the Eurohike Rydal 500 – detailed review of the Vango Icarus 500 can be found here. The Vango is slightly bigger, and slightly pricier, but there is an option to attach a bespoke awning to the Vango Icarus 500 which increases versatility as well as improves weather protection.Planning a family camping holiday?

Needless to say, a 5-berth tent these days is not for five grown-ups, but rather for a family of five where the children are under 10 years or so, but hey ho… Eurohike Rydal 500 Review There is a toggled divider if you’d like to split the sleeping area 2/3, but bear in mind that the smaller bedroom would be 120cms wide, so you would not be able fit in a normal double mattress. But you could go for a narrow one by all means. There isn’t a bespoke carpet for the Rydal 500, but it is compatible with the Eurohike Medium tent carpet– again, not expensive and helps a lot protecting the groundsheet. Eurohike Rydal 500 Pole Repair Kit The sleeping section has a detachable separator down the middle of it so you can have two sleeping areas if you want.
