The Vango Avington 600XL has a great layout for the family campers.
The Vango Avington 600XL has a layout I really like on a family tent, with the large front porch that’s so useful for camping in the British weather.
At the back of the tent are two bedrooms, each triple-size. Yes, you could put three people in each bedroom, but actually, getting a three bedroom to use as a double makes a lot of sense, as it gives you more space to move around, get changed, etc.
This additional space is just what you need on a family camping holiday when you stay for multiple nights in the tent.
There is also a side door on the Avington. This will help create a pleasant breeze through the tent when it is hot, though note that there’s no bug mesh screen on the side door. You will find a large vent at the back of the tent too, which is designed to help reduce condensation, especially in the sleeping area.

Great tent for the price.Ample room for a family,and the ability to select your own sizes for the bedrooms.Large porch for keeping the wet out,lots of pockets,lantern hanging points,cable entry point.Strong inner groundsheet ,found it easy to erect and same for repacking.Inner(lights out)keeps the sun out of your face when you want a lie in.Strong front and rear storm anchors,not needed yet but handy to know they are there.This is probably the best tent we have bought over the years we have been campers,recommend it fully.
