Our Review
The Outwell Parkdale 4PA is a great family tent, with many features in a small package. Being smaller than its big tent brothers makes this tent ideal for quick weekend camps, as it only weighs 21.6 kg with a pack size of 75 x 43 cm, making it more manageable. Plus, it's inflatable, and so relatively quick to pitch.
The Parkdale 4PA Tent Bedrooms
Inside the tent, you have two bedrooms, which are both darkened and fitted with Quick and Quiet magnetic doors.
The Outwell Pakdale 4PA includes the Quick and Quiet bedrooms.
The bedrooms are Outwell Premier, larger than many tent bedrooms, with a minimum length of 215 cm.
Living Spaces
The tent has a core living space. You can find a side door here.
The main living space is separated from the front porch with a doorway, which you can completely zip away if you wish to open up the tent.

At the front of the tent is a good-sized porch area, which you can enclose with a door, with a bug screen, or roll up and leave open.
