The Kampa Croyde 6 Tent is a new excellent choice for families that don't want to spend too much money on their tent without losing out on quality. The poled structure is just as sturdy as its inflatable counterpart, the material of the poles are made out of fiberglass meaning they're extremely flexible for a versatile structure. The overall headroom you gain inside the tent is exceptional thanks to the 2.1 height that extends fully towards the rear of the tent until you reach the back of the sleeping area. The Fabric of the flysheet is Kampa’s Weathershield™ 68D, this polyester sheet is great at keeping rainwater out as it has a hydrostatic head of 4000mm HH.
The exterior of the Kampa Croyde 6 Tent is a stunning cobalt blue, combined with the large window panels, this makes for an eye-catcher at the campsite. Having such a large amount of space and a multitude of windows means that you have a bright and airy environment inside your tent. The front entrance is extremely large and can be placed in many positions, there is also a side door located in the general living room. This additional side door has a Wet Weather entrance that is designed to prevent water from dripping onto the floor, it also offers a small amount of protection from direct sunlight. Entering the Kampa Croyde 6 Tent from the front will greet you with the integrated porch area. This section does not have a groundsheet in place and is surrounded by large-crystal-clear windows. This section of the tent is ideal for outdoor living in water climates as you have overhead and side protection from sunlight, you could then fully open the main door to experience excellent airflow. His room is also perfect for storing wet kit and could also be utlised as a cooking station as there is no sheet to get dirty on the floor. Proceeding further inwards, you will come across the inner door which seals off the living area from any cold gusts of wind. Moving through this, you will notice the expansive interior that has an internal area of a staggering 11.8m². To the left of this area is the side door which has a toggleable mesh attachment. This acts as a flyscreen which prevents bugs from entering the interior, but still allows for excellent airflow, to aid in this effort, high and low ventilation panels have been implemented throughout the Kampa Croyde 6 Tent. Moving further through the tent will result in reaching the sleeping area, this space has a width of 4.9m which is spread equally between 6 campers resulting in roughly 68cm of width per person. The bedroom utlises Kampa’s Sleep Tite darkened inner tents, the material used can prevent early morning sunlight from piercing the fabric and disturbing your full night’s sleep. The structure is extremely reliable thanks to fiberglass poles, and the interior is protected by the polyester Weathershield™ 68D Fabric. Having a Hydrostatic Head of 4000mm HH means you can rest easy knowing that the interior is completely safe from heavy rainfall.
Overall, the Kampa Croyde 6 Tent is a great option for families that want a great amount of internal space, a sturdy and reliable structure as well as full waterproofing throughout. You really can't go wrong with the Kampa Croyde 6 Tent and we at Purely Outdoors think it’s an ideal choice if you want to save money by opting for a fiberglass-poled construction rather than an inflatable solution.
