This family tent from Debenhams boasts a modern look, protects you from the unpleasant weather, and provides a comfortable place for any adventure. Ideal for festivals, woodland camping or nights on the beach, this tent features an all-around waterproof design as it’s made from polyester with a PU coating.

It’s waterproof and wind-resistant, making it a top choice for camping trips in the UK when the weather can be unpredictable. The tent’s taped seams effectively prevent rainwater infiltration, while the heavy-duty ground sheet helps maintain a dry and comfortable interior, so you never have to worry about you or your belongings getting drenched in the night.

Armed with a detachable rainfly, which can be attached to the tent’s top for weather protection and privacy, this beauty offers good ventilation and mosquito protection, ensuring you’re protected from the elements as well as the insects. It features mesh walls that not only offer ventilation, perfect if this tent is used at full capacity, but also effectively keep insects at bay, ensuring a comfortable and bug-free experience no matter where you are.

This tent is equipped with an E-port for convenient electrical cord access. This port allows you to easily connect an extension cord from an external power source to your tent, so you don’t have to sacrifice charging your electronics, keeping fans or heaters running, or using plug-in speakers.

The tent is praised for being easy to set up and take down. Thanks to the highly flexible and lightweight fibreglass poles and the convenient pin-and-ring connection system, assembly and disassembly are a breeze, so you don’t have to worry about hours spent faffing around with instructions and difficult equipment.

Normally costing £736, this nine-person tent is now up for grabs for the massively reduced price of £184, saving shoppers a whopping £552.

Kirstie Allsopp and her co-host Phil Spencer are celebrating 25 years of the Channel 4 show this month – and they have put to bed any rumours of a feud once and for all

Kirstie Allsopp has admitted that she never socialises with her Location Location Location co-presenter Phil Spencer after he was notably missing from her wedding earlier this year.

The pair are celebrating the show’s 25th anniversary this year and have addressed the rumours of a feud between them. In a joint interview with The Telegraph they confirmed that they were “great friends”. Kirstie said: “We don’t socialise, because we work so much together.” Phil, however, affirmed: “But we’re very, very fond of each other. There’s no one else who’s been through this experience. I put Kirstie among the most important people in my life.”

Agreeing with Phil, Kirstie added: “Ditto. In the most significant parts of our lives, we’ve been there for each other. I think Phil was one of the first people I ever told I was pregnant.”

Earlier this year, Kirstie tied the knot with husband Ben Andersen in an impromptu ceremony. She told the Mail on Sunday in January: “On Thursday, Ben and I were married at The Grosvenor Chapel, where my parents and grandparents were married, and where we celebrated my father’s life in June.”

She explained that only a small group of close friends and family were in attendance as the event was kept closely under wraps. Wedding details like the flowers, catering, lighting, and the order of service were all done by people she had worked with over the years, and who kept it all secret. As the wedding was organised at the last minute “some beloved friends and family couldn’t be there”, she said, and this included Phil.

Previously, Kirstie had described herself as “happily unmarried”, saying in a column back in 2020 that she had “no problem being a middle-aged girlfriend with an even older middle-aged boyfriend”. She shares two children and two stepchildren with Ben, and the pair have been together since 2004.

To mark the 25th anniversary of Location Location Location, Channel 4 will dedicate a night of celebratory programming on Wednesday, May 14th. Over the years, Kirstie and Phil have helped nearly 750 people find their home, and viewed more than 1,800 properties.

“However many times I hear it I still can’t believe it has been 25 years, it is an enormous privilege to have the opportunity to travel around the whole country working with so many lovely house hunters and such brilliant crew,” Kirstie said.

Phil, meanwhile, said it was a “surreal” experience, and a “privilege” to be able to visit so much of the UK and support “hundreds of people in their home searches”. He added: “Although quite surreal, it’s also been fun looking back and seeing not only how we have changed through the 25 years, but also watching how our friendship developed and then strengthened across the years.
