Capri 400 Poled Camping Tent (4 Person)

The Vango Capri 400 Poled Tent gives families a straightforward entry into camping without the complexity of air beam systems. This four-person dome tent uses traditional Powerflex fibreglass poles that thread through sleeves, creating a stable structure that's lighter than inflatable alternatives and doesn't need a pump. Villa-style construction with upright side walls delivers full standing height in the living area at 195cm, whilst the pre-attached front canopy extends your usable space without requiring separate groundsheet arrangements. Two queen-size bedrooms provide 60cm width per person, and there's a toggled divider you can remove to create one master sleeping space. The Lights-Out bedroom fabric makes a real difference during summer when early sunrise would otherwise wake you at 5am. Vango's Sentinel Essential fabric carries a 3,000mm hydrostatic head rating that handles sustained British rain including prolonged downpours, with fully taped seams preventing water ingress at stitching points. The sewn-in groundsheet eliminates gaps where draughts and insects typically enter, whilst the TBS II (Tension Band System) braces poles at three points to reduce flex when wind picks up. You'll find Diamond Clear windows and AirZone ventilation combining high and low-level vents to manage condensation, though proper overnight ventilation remains essential. Pre-angled poles create more internal volume than standard curved designs, and there's a cable entry point with tidies for electric hook-up on serviced pitches. Two people with basic tent experience can pitch this in 20-30 minutes once familiar with the pole-sleeve system. The Easy Pack carry bag offers 50% more volume than standard bags, which genuinely helps when packing away in damp conditions. At 14.7kg, it's designed for weekend trips and short breaks rather than extended touring, with all fabrics meeting EN5912 fire safety standards.
