Tent Waterproof Ratings<\/h2>\n

Waterproof ratings for tents are measured in millimetres and will usually be between 1000mm (the lowest level considered waterproof) and 10,000mm. The higher the rating, the more waterproof a tent will be. Ratings are measured using a hydrostatic head test but these ratings don\u2019t take into account wind driven rain.<\/p>\n

Over time and with use mud and dirt can cause the water repellent coating to break down, which will result in water being absorbed into the fabric rather than running off. It is recommended that tents are periodically \u2018reproofed\u2019 with a tent reproofing spray<\/a>. This will restore the water repellency whilst maintaining the breathability of the fabric.<\/p>\n

Pop Up Tents<\/h2>\n

As the name suggests pop up tents<\/a> simply \u2018pop up\u2019. You might also see these types of tents described as instant or quick pitch tents. They are\u00a0ideal for people\u00a0who have never pitched a\u00a0tent before. The poles are already assembled and fitted into the tent fabric and once the sprung frame is unleashed they just pop up by themselves. Pop up tents are especially popular for festivals and as kids play tents as they are so easy to pitch. Pop up tents are not suitable for windy conditions due to their flexibility.<\/p>\n

Family Tents<\/h2>\n

Family tents<\/a> are those which have been specifically designed for family camping holidays. They will\u00a0often be large enough to stand up in and have\u00a0separate bedroom compartments so the kids can have their own space.<\/p>\n

Backpacker Tents<\/h2>\n

Backpacking tents are some of the most technical tents you can buy. They are designed to be carried by backpackers and hikers<\/a>, so are\u00a0lighter and smaller (compact when packed too) than a standard tent. The lightweight tents are often weatherproof and wind resistant offering stability in open areas such as fields. It\u2019s likely they will be put up and taken down frequently so are generally easy to pitch.

Dome Tents<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A dome tent has flexible poles which cross over the middle of the tent with the ends fixed to webbing straps or tape at the base, forming its domed shape. In windy conditions, they are much sturdier and more reliable than a pop up tent but generally the bigger the tent the less stable they are.<\/p>\n

Single Skin Tents<\/h2>\n

Single Skin tents\u00a0are made from a single layer which is waterproof. They are often made from breathable fabrics to aid ventilation.<\/p>\n

\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Pros<\/b><\/td>\nCons<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Often more Lightweight<\/td>\nHarder to deal with condensation<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
More internal space for size\/weight<\/td>\nProvides less insulation<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
More Affordable<\/td>\nLittle protection from the elements if the \u00a0skin is damaged<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Double Skin Tents<\/h2>\n

A Double Skin tent will have an inner tent that isn\u2019t waterproof and usually made partially or entirely from mesh, and an outer tent, called a flysheet, that is waterproof. The outer tent protects the inner tent from the elements and provides a space between the two to help insulate and reduce condensation.<\/p>\n

\n

Tent Sizes (2 Man, 3 Man 6 Man…)<\/h2>\n

The size of a tent is generally described by the maximum number of people that can sleep inside, for example you will see tents described as 2 man, 2 person or 2 berth. To find the best tent for you, you must first consider the number of people in your party.<\/p>\n

As a rule if you plan on keeping kit in your tent too, choose a tent that is one person bigger.<\/em><\/p>\n

If there are two adults sharing a tent, space will be limited in a two man tent. A 3 or 4 man tent will allow you plenty of space to sleep comfortably and store your gear. For families, a 6 man tent and upwards will provide enough space so you won\u2019t feel like you\u2019re sleeping on top of each other (which can be testing with kids!). Bigger tents are likely to have separate \u2018rooms\u2019 so the kids can have their own space. It\u2019s possible to get a 10 man tent or even a 12 berth if you have a big group. Remember though, the bigger the tent the harder it will be to put up and the more space it will take up in the car. If you will be walking to the campsite a bigger tent will also be heavier to carry! A one man tent is generally only suitable for single backpackers or hikers who need a lightweight tent and don\u2019t have much kit with them.<\/p>\n

\n

Anatomy of a Typical Tent<\/h2>\n

\"Tent
\nGroundsheet <\/strong><\/p>\n

A groundsheet is essentially a waterproof barrier between you and the cold, wet ground (you\u2019ll need an airbed<\/a> or sleeping mat<\/a> still if you want to keep warm). Unless you have a traditional A-frame tent chances are the groundsheet will be sewn onto the walls so there is no gap to let insects\u00a0or drafts in. You may also choose to lay a separate groundsheet under your tent to protect the bottom from dirt and tears. These can be purchased individually. A separate groundsheet is also useful to lie in the living area of larger tents or between a group of smaller tents to make a communal living space.<\/p>\n

Flysheet <\/strong><\/p>\n

If a tent is described as \u2018double skin\u2019, this will have an inner tent and an outer fly sheet designed to protect the inner tent from getting wet. The flysheet is suspended over the inner tent but should not touch it, as this will cause condensation and rain to penetrate through to the interior.<\/p>\n

Guy Ropes <\/strong><\/p>\n

Guy ropes are cords attached to the outer tent or flysheet which are pulled away from the tent and pegged in the ground to stabilise the tent. The guy lines should follow the seams of the tent and not overlap. There will be an adjuster on the cords so you can tighten and loosen the lines, as they get wet or dry they may shrink or slacken so you should check regularly.<\/p>\n

Inner Tent <\/strong><\/p>\n

The inner is the main living and sleeping area of the tent.<\/p>\n

Porch<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many tents will have a porch attached to the entrance. These can be very short, making a useful area is useful for storing kit you don\u2019t want in the tent but want to keep dry, or quite large, allowing you space to cook. It\u2019s also possible to buy separate porches (normally for larger tents) as well as canopies.<\/p>\n

Zips <\/strong><\/p>\n

Double zips are useful and allow you to open the door from the top or the bottom.<\/p>\n

Tent Pegs <\/strong><\/p>\n

Tent pegs can be made from plastic, metal or wood. Most tents will come with basic steel hooked pegs which are fine for firm ground and fair weather. If pitching in soft mud you may wish to buy T-shaped heavy duty plastic pegs which will not twist around. V or X shaped pegs are recommended for sandy ground. Always check what the terrain will be like prior to camping to ensure you have the correct tent pegs<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tent Poles <\/strong><\/p>\n

The poles are essentially the skeleton of the tent and provide structural support. In basic terms there are two types of poles, bendy and rigid. Bendy poles are generally made from fibreglass or aluminium and are linked with elastic cord. They are flexible and lightweight. Rigid poles are sturdier and are more often used in traditional and trailer tents.<\/p>\n

Air Vents <\/strong><\/p>\n

Breathing, wet clothing and general humidity can all cause condensation to form inside your tent (try not to touch the tent fabric as this can also let water on the outside come through). Air vents are designed to help reduce condensation by letting vapour in the air escape. Doors and windows also offer ventilation, so it is best to keep these open when possible. Look for doors and windows with mesh insect nets to keep out midges even when open.<\/p>\n
