Looks like a nice trip - how do the Dutch tents work for you?

I haven't got one myself but heard several complaints about folks sweating themselves to death. :D

To be fair they do have some faults but I really like them for the space that they give you. I used a low camp bed & could sit up o.k & I had room for my big bergen as well as my boots. :thumbsup:

When it rains you definitely need a tarp over it as they do leak but as for the overheating issue it was around 20c at the weekend & I was fine under the shade of that old oak tree.

I mainly car camp anyway so lugging it around at 4.5kgs & having to erect a tarp over it doesn't bother me at all & I think they look the part in a woodland environment.

For certain situations I wouldn't be without it but I can also see why people have bought them & quickly sold them on ! :)
