Camping Tents for a Family of Five

Any views on camping tents for a family of 5 fair-weather campers? Perhaps camping 1-2 times a year, in the warmer months of NSW.

We're looking at this tent. -Wanderer Geo Elite 4+2 ENV Dome Tent

We're actually prefer a Coleman's instant up which we had before, but its size and the limited car space makes it prohibitive, hence the desire for a dome tent.

Open to recommendations.

  • What about still getting the instant up but investing in some temporary roof racks?

  • You don't want the kids to have their own tent?

  • We've already got a roof box on the car. Kids are a bit young for their own tent

  • Just make sure there’s enough room inside the tent for people plus clothing etc. a 6 person tent has a floor size for six adults lying side by side with no other room.

  • I have been looking at tent myself and have narrow down to below 2. I am favoring the Sundome because of price and seem to be much simpler to setup. I have a 7 and 5 years old so either will be fine for me. Issue I have is space in my X-Trail because I dont have roof rack and I dont have enough storage in my garage. My wife is also against buying sleeping bag because storage again. She rather pay $300 a night for Glenworth Valley
