STW Campers, I'm looking for a smallish tent with 2 sleeping compartments, ideally one that I can stand up in (am 6'2") but a bit of hunching is probably inevitable.

Something 4 berth would be fine, it'll mostly be used by just me and my teenage daughter.

Happy to go 2nd hand, whilst a light one would be nice it's not critical as this is primarily for car-based camping.

There's plenty with a single bedroom but we want one with 2 sleeping areas.

I've been looking at a Vango Fireline 500 which seems to meet the brief, any other suggestions?

I have this one  https://www.decathlon.co.uk/arpenaz-family-42-id_8378238.html

I'm 6ft and can stand up in the middle, you'll have to hunch a little bit but it's not too bad.

Both sleeping compartments are decent sized.

Millets half price

Currently £200 with room divider .. room for bikes...

I got the 4 man because its me and mini me..so privacy not a concern.. but that doesn't have separate rooms.

It's not that bulky for packing, it keeps water out., doesn't take long to put up.. etc.

Blow the budget - Helsport Valhall

Vaude Badawi (was given one of these from STW that now sees regular service with local Boys Brigade)

Get yourself on Ebay - there will be loads and loads and loads of them for next to no money.

Thanks folks, am currently searching Ebay & Gumtree but having a name for a tent to search with makes it a lot easier.

@mattoab

That Vaude one looks excellent
