Named after a striking freshwater loch in the central Scottish Highlands, you'd expect the 2-man Tay Tent from Eurohike to be pretty impressive. And it is.
Engineered for fuss-free camping, the funnel-style Tay features easy-pitch gear to make sure you can get stuck into your adventure, rather than fumbling around with poles and pegs.
Flysheet-first pitching means you can take shelter in an instant - preferably before that looming rain cloud spills whilst a large porch area gives you ample room for all your gear.
Storage space and pockets are aplenty - keeping the tent looking sharp whilst fibreglass poles make light work for the camper carrying the load.
Got one of these the other month to use while Leading D of E groups, Great loads of room for kit and spare stuff i have to keep to hand, but it very heavy so im glad i dont park the car far from it, will be using it next month for a 3 day trip to snowdonia with a bunch of mate if the weathers good someone can bag the porch to
overall 3.5 out of 5
SUMMARY: At £20, the Tay represents a small investment for a lot of space. The layout is good and 2-men (and 1 dog) weren't too much on top of each other. The generous porch is excellent for storage and hiding from the rain, and once packed it's nice and compact. BUT the odd fit of fly vs inner, the irritating zipper and the flooding porch mean I have to mark this down.
