As family camping specialists, WM Camping has been helping campers find the best family tents for over 45 years. We know what makes a family tent work for real family camping: large living areas with standing head height, darkened bedrooms that feel comfortable, porch areas for muddy boots and cooking in, and canvases that can handle the unpredictable British weather.
Our family tent range brings together top UK camping brands including Vango, Outdoor Revolution, Holawild and Easy Camp, with family air tents and fibreglass poled models available. Whether you are planning weekends away, school holiday trips or longer holidays, you’ll find the best family tent for your needs.Â
Large Family Tents at WM Camping
After more than 45 years of helping families choose tents, we know that the best family tent is not just about sleeping space. It is about how the tent feels when everyone is inside. It is the space for breakfast on a wet morning, the bedroom layout that gives everyone somewhere to settle, the porch area that stops muddy shoes spreading through the tent, and the living area that becomes the heart of the trip.
That is why our family tent range includes designs built around proper family camping. All of our family tents offer large living spaces, flexible bedroom layouts and darkened bedrooms to help reduce early morning light. Sheltered entrances and porch areas give you extra covered space for boots, coats and cooking gear, while waterproof fabrics, taped seams and sewn-in groundsheets help keep the weather outside.
From smaller family tents for shorter breaks to larger inflatable family tents for longer holidays, our range is selected to give you the space, comfort and reliability families need.
Family Tent FAQs
Why buy a family tent from WM Camping?
WM Camping has been selling family tents for over 45 years, with a carefully selected range from trusted brands including Vango, Outdoor Revolution, Outwell and Easy Camp.
What layout works best for a family tent?
That depends on your needs. If you spend more time indoors, look for a larger living area. These types of family tents tend to have the bedrooms at the rear and living room in front.
For families who prefer separate sleeping areas a vis a vis tents might be the best option. Vis a vis tents have bedrooms either side of the living area for better privacy.
Is a porch or covered area worth having?
Yes. A porch or canopy is ideal for keeping wet gear, shoes, and outdoor equipment separate from your main living area. It can also provide sheltered space for cooking and sitting outside in light rain.
How waterproof should a family tent be?
Look for a tent with a HH (hydrostatic head) rating of above 300HH and taped or seam-sealed flysheet. These features help keep you dry and protect against wind-driven rain.
Do you sell inflatable family tents?
Yes, we stock inflatable family tents as well as poled family tents, giving you a choice between quick-pitch air models and traditional poled designs.
