Product Information

The Vango Castlewood is based on the classic “vis-à-vis” design that campers have known and loved for many years. With sleeping compartments at either end of the tent, this layout means that you should hopefully get a better night’s sleep with the kids/guests as far away as possible! Ultimately you also benefit from having more privacy as everyone needs their own space sometimes, especially when camping. The Castlewood is available in two sizes, a 4 berth is ideal for smaller families or even for festivals whereas the 8 berth suits more the larger families or scout/guides who want to accommodate a large amount of people in one tent.

A central living area brings everyone together and because there are doors on both sides of the tent you can pick and choose which is your main entrance depending on what the weather is doing. The main doors also feature a mesh panel which can be covered by zipping up the privacy curtains allowing you the option to increase airflow without having to allow inspects to join the party. The doors can also double up to be a canopy by buying some king poles and pulling it out. If more space is required, then an optional TA003 side awning can be purchased and often creates an area to cook or clean off before entering your lovely new tent.

Vango have made a big improvement to their Sentinel fabric for the new season. This latest material has been dyed in a different method which not only increases the colour retention of the fabric but also the process uses 60% less water making it more eco-friendly. With a waterproof rating of 3,000mm HH, it is armoured with more than enough to cope with the typical British weather. The tent has key features such as dark ‘Nightfall bedrooms’ which enable you to have a longer and better night’s sleep as you won’t be waking up when the sun does. Inside the bedroom there are also storage pockets to give you an easily accessible point for storing items like phones or torches so you can find them in the middle of the night. Other important features include cable entry points, privacy curtains, mesh windows internally and low-level panels externally; one of our favourite features is the drop-down doors. Unlike previous years Vango have added extra toggle points to the lip to decrease the chance of the wind from coming in.

Whether it is for a big or small group of people, the Castlewood from Vango will certainly tick the boxes. Not only can you pitch the tent yourself but it is clear that the small details have been thought about: colour co-ordinated poles or hanging points for lanterns and all of these features make the tent what it is.
