Product Information

The breathable inner fabric allows for condensation to pass through, ensuring that you stay dry and comfy.

Just back from a very wet week in Cornwall and only a few drips of rain in living area, because front guy rope came out overnight. Erection with the highly tensioned poles needs to be practiced, but OK in the end, and a very solid tent as a result, especially when its unique tension straps system is used.

Since owning ours she has done 3 x 2 week trips to Spain and Cannes and is ready for the next adventure this August.

For optimum comfort, whack a tent carpet in the living area and line the sleeping area with blankets before lying sleeping mats on the top. Maybe it’s worth mentioning, that the Vango Icarus 500 dlx is erected ‘flysheet first’, meaning that the bedrooms, that are not waterproof, stay under the protective and waterproof flysheet.You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. I bought this tent off someone on Facebook market place including front universal medium awning and a eurohike Buckingham elite 8 footprint that fits tent and awning together , if just using tent then we fold the footprint back to fit.

The 4000mm HH polyester flysheet is both waterproof and durable, ensuring that you stay dry even during heavy rainfall. We used it every year in Ireland and for the last 3 years it also served us well on our trips to France.A side mesh door allows for insect-free airflow, and the parallel-zip front door can extend out as a canopy using awning poles (not included). We woke in the morning to see a few tents collapsed and huge puddles onsite but all we needed to do was repair one guy line that got ripped. The groundsheet is fully sewn-in and has a 10,000mm HH waterproof rating, which is outstanding even among other Vango tents, yet alone compared to other manufacturers. It is still okay for a family of 5 though, and of course, the space on offer is more than generous for any group less of 4.
