This vango 6 birth tunnel tent design has been very popular over the years. We bought one two or three years ago (Avington 600) when it when it crept under the £200 mark using a couple of voucher codes at Blacks I think. It works very well for our family of 5 and being a tunnel tent it's easy to put up. We bought a foot print from eBay before our first family camping trip which I think was a good idea because the field was very wild (rough/stones/nettles). Extensive rain was not a problem. A couple of double air beds and a single air bed (individual air beds would be too tight or may not fit. There is a partition I the middle of the sleeping area that can be rolled up away too. Being able stand fully upright and still have a lot of overhead room is great and the front covering/porch area is a great idea - some camp sites charge extra for a separate sun/rain shelter covering or tarp. Oh and we bought a tent carpet from eBay or Amazon which made it more comfortable - not specifically for the Vango tent which were expensive - but big enough to cover most of the min area inside. This deal is hot - this tent in its many guises/names has been posted lots of times over the years and hardly if at all at this price so voting hot

Regardless, amazing tent at a rediculous pride!

Just to reiterate, I'm gutted! :confused:

but it's sports direct

Is that the maternity version, or did predictive text get the better of you? :-)

good price and should be a good tent, but had to laugh at the 6 birth (does it come with a sealed groundsheet?).

Wow, very very good price...

Gutted :disappointed:

Blimey, sportsdirect and not auto cold. :confused:

Nice to see for a change.

A lot of tent for your money - only 4000 HH, but that waterproofness will handle the most awful British weather. As ever, take 2 off the number of berth unless you enjoy sleeping like sardines. Sports Direct do have some decent deals tho' they seem to treat their staff like s***.

Good video here:

5 man at Aldi next week for £79.99: https://www.aldi.co.uk/5-man-tent---green-blue/p/093365032565200

Our camping days are well over but we'd have loved this. Good spot OP

Great price. Ordered thanks op

4000 HH is great for a tent at this price, and more than adequate. As you say, it will handle awful weather so not sure why you said "only 4000 HH"...:confused:

Not sure people should support a trader that pays staff less than min wage and won't let it's staff use the toilet unless on a break.

Thanks OP, ordered for a couple of festivals this summer. They also have the footprint on sale at £21.99.

Cold. Sports Direct.

great tent great price....get the footprint as well saves a hole in the groundsheet

cold from me, would rather pay the extra from gooutdoors. They are great if you snap any poles or have problem.

Ordered .. thanks .. also got the £21 footprint,, so £196 delivered.

Nice work OP, perfect timing !

Most price matching will only match companies that offer similar after sale support etc so sports direct might be excluded and I'm not sure gooutdoors have the exact same product but it's definitely worth a try.

Thanks..... Purchased

21.17 Kg ?!?

You won't get 6 airbeds in, just 6 people in a row. That said, this is a hot deal for a good quality tent that will keep the weather at bay in all but the worst deluges.

How in Hades did someone get a SD deal so hot!!!

I'm so impressed!!

Don't know if I'm able to click though, will have to abstain.

HOT: Just brought the tent, ground sheet as well as a carpet sheet all in 221, not been camping since a kid but now I have 3 thought we would experience it - christ what have i let myself in for??? :disappointed:

Anyone recommend a good quality sleeping bag 2 adults and for 3 children - no idea of the most appropriate for this tent - any advice welcomed.

Thanks, purchased the tent, footprint and carpet 260 x 360 for £225.99 delivered. Carpet comes up as Vango Pem Carp on order receipt from SD so hopefully best size

OK tent at a good price. Heat from me.

Thanks op, fantastic price. I'm not a fan of Sports Direct, but at that price I have to take the plunge.

Was watching the equivalent at millets / blacks, but that's only gone down to ~250. This is 226 with the footprint and carpet!

Got one as its too good a bargain to miss.

Fab deal but out of stock.

anyone wish to sell me theirs?

I ordered one late last night but had the order cancelled as it's now out of stock. Shame, but my own fault for dithering about deciding whether it was the right tent for me or not.

Next time I'll know just to buy it as these deals don't hang around!

Annoying when the pages get removed when out of stock. Especially if you have ordered one and want to check the page again.

Ordered the tent Monday early morning 00.02 Then ordered sleeping bags that evening 18.20. Confirmation the sleeping bags have been despatched but nothing on the tent so also looking doubtful

Not had a dispatch email either

I've had my confirmation email that its with the courier. ordered Monday night.

I got mine today and put it up ...great tent!

I called Vango to find out the difference between this tent and the Vango Anteus that Go Outdoors sells for £319.99. They said its the same, just a different color.

Furious mines been cancelled. Mickey Mouse company.

Now I'm getting a vango carpet for a tent I'm not going to get. What a joke. I'm steering well clear of this company in the future. The best part is that I have to pay postage to return the item.

​I ordered on the 19th at about 10pm

the carpet and the extra groundsheet is worth it

the carpet and the extra groundsheet is worth it

I've ordered from yeomans but with 5% off and a £50 voucher it's only £30 loss. No fault of the OP but I wish companies would only take orders when stock is confirmed as available.

Mine is with yodel.

Yeah I ordered the tent last night for about £252 after the code then first thing this morning I got emailed the £50 voucher to use again. It's £100 spend but it's still worth it. Decent company too.

​you ordered 2 tents then?!

ignore. you have a spare voucher.
if you have nothing to use it on let me know :smile:

They've obviously over sold their stocks - i ordered mine sunday morning and it came on friday, their stock ordering / replenishment system must have a delay meaning they sold more than they had in the warehouse - very frustrating for those who didn't get it. You could ask to be informed of any returns (there will always be some)

mine delivered so will pitch and make sure all bits are in place as don't trust SD but great price and thanks OP:)

Received mine today ordered Monday 20th 00.20am if that helps others. Thanks OP for the heads up

got mine yesterday morning.

Received mine, thanks op. Got the extra groundsheet, now wished I bought the carpet aswell :disappointed:

Should this be expired now? I just clicked on the link and ordered before I read all these comments. No idea if I will be getting the delivery or not now! Fingers crossed as the link still works. If you go to sports direct website and search for the tent, it's not there...

I think it was in stock briefly. You might get lucky..

It arrived! Think I may have got the final one as the link is removed now
