When it comes to tents, there’s a lot to be said for the philosophy of “go big or go home”. And we’re not just talking about the dimensions. The phrase is an encouragement to be bold, extravagant and live life to its fullest, and the Queensdale 8PA is a superb example of an extra-large family tent that does just that.
It offers a combination of flexible sleeping and living accommodation and top-quality materials. As you would expect from the Danes, it’s also packed full of useful features designed to make camping more enjoyable.
So what makes the Queensdale stand out from the crowd? Well, in our view, its big draw is the impressive amount of flexible living space.
The tent’s three zones provide you with a wet room, a dry living area and a sleeping section. It can sleep up to eight people in four bedrooms, making the set-up ideal for families on long camping holidays.
The fourth room – an inner tent in the living area – can be used as a bedroom, a guest room for visiting friends or relatives, a handy storage area or a kids’ playroom. If it’s not needed, it can be removed easily to provide you with even more daytime living space.
Quick & Quiet Access doors use magnetic strips to provide silent, zip-free entry between the front wet room and the lounge, and the Queensdale also has Quick & Quiet doors on the bedrooms.
The darkened Premier Bedrooms are designed to keep out early morning sunshine, and have mesh ventilation to keep temperatures down in summer and keep condensation to a minimum.
The tent’s doors can also be rolled open to let fresh air flow through the tent. Other features include tinted windows, mesh storage pockets and the HookTrack System for versatile hanging lights and other items.
