Last updated 24 October 2026. Prices and ratings checked on Amazon UK that day.
Looking for the best family cabin tent with a porch in the UK? This guide compares eight family tents with a porch, living area or screen room, using Amazon UK listing data, priced from £100.00 to £367.80 on 24 October 2026.

What to look for in a family tent with a porch
The listings describe these tents differently, so compare these details:
- Porch, awning or screen room: the Eurohike Sendero 4 and 6 list a porch for storing gear, the Vango Apollo 500 a large porch living area, the Portal Luxury tents a living area (the 5-man also an extendable awning), the Berghaus a vestibule and a separate porch accessory, the Vango Purbeck an enclosed porch and double living area, and the Coleman a floorless screen room.
- Size and sleeping capacity: listed capacities are 4 to 6 people, with the Berghaus, Portal 5-man and Vango Apollo listing 5 and the Purbeck 6 with three queen-size bedrooms. Listed pitched sizes run from 390 x 290 x 170cm (Vango Apollo) to 700 x 380 x 207cm (Purbeck); the Coleman lists 11 x 9 feet rather than centimetres.
- Waterproof rating: the listings state 2,000mm (Eurohike), 3,000mm (Vango and Portal), 1,500mm (Coleman specification) and 6,000mm (Berghaus).
- Bedrooms and darkening: the Berghaus lists darkened bedrooms with a removable divider (six windows in the bullets, two in its manufacturer text), the Portal Luxury 6-man a dividable bedroom, the Purbeck three queen-size bedrooms, and the Vango Apollo three rooms in its specification only.
- Weight and pack size: listed weights run from about 8.91kg (Vango Apollo) to 22.5kg (Purbeck), leaving aside the Sendero 6’s conflicting 5kg specification figure, and the Sendero 4 packs to 61 x 23 x 23cm.
- Warranty: the Vango Apollo and Purbeck list a 2-year manufacturer warranty, the Sendero 4 a 1-year warranty and the Portal tents a 1-year warranty.
- Tent shape (cabin or tunnel?): if you are searching for a cabin tent, note that none of the eight listings uses that word. The Sendero 4 and 6 are described as tunnel tents, the Vango Apollo lists both a tunnel and a dome form, and the Coleman lists a hinged door and a screen room. Compare the listed pitched size and photos rather than the label.

How we chose these tents
We compared eight family tents from Amazon UK listings that describe a porch, living area or screen room, across a range of sizes and prices. None of the listings uses the word cabin, so we compared tents by what the listings say. We took prices, ratings, sizes and features from the Amazon UK listings on 24 October 2026 (titles, feature bullets, descriptions and specifications), and the figures here are the listings’ own claims. Where a listing gave two different figures, we show both. We chose our pick by weighing the listed living space, rating and its sample size, so it is a judgement made from the listing data. Ratings are shown with their sample size: the Vango Apollo has 19 ratings, the Berghaus 60 and the Portal Luxury 5-man 76, so treat those as early signals. Sellers vary: the Eurohike and Berghaus tents are sold by Blacks and the Portal tents by Portal Outdoors. Listings sometimes contradict themselves (the Sendero 6 weight, season and person count, the Coleman dimensions, shape and waterproof rating, the Vango Apollo shape and room count, the Berghaus window count and the Vango Purbeck height), so confirm details with the seller before you order. Prices change often, so use the links to see the current price. We may update this guide when prices, ratings or availability change.
Family tent with porch FAQs
What is the best family cabin tent with a porch in the UK?
Our pick, based on the listings, is the Coleman 6-Person WeatherMaster (£247.39, 4.5 from 2,667 ratings), which lists a separate floorless screen room, a hinged door and room for two queen-size airbeds. Its listed waterproof rating is 1,500mm, against 3,000mm for the Vango and Portal tents and 6,000mm for the Berghaus.
Are these cabin tents? What the listings call their shape
None of the eight listings calls the tent a cabin tent, so we use the listings’ own words: a porch, living area or screen room. Most describe a tunnel shape, and several specifications give a rectangular or dome form for some (including the Coleman and Vango Purbeck). If a cabin tent is what you are searching for, compare the listed pitched size and photos for each tent.
What size family tent do I need?
That depends on your family and your gear. The listings here are 4-person (Sendero 4), 5-person (Vango Apollo, Portal 5-man, Berghaus) and 6-person (Sendero 6, Coleman, Portal 6-man, Vango Purbeck) tents. Check the pitched size and the sleeping area on the listing.
What is the cheapest family tent with a porch here?
The Eurohike Sendero 4 at £100.00 on 24 October 2026, then the Eurohike Sendero 6 at £130.00 and the Vango Apollo 500 at £133.77.
Which tent lists the highest waterproof rating?
The Berghaus Adhara 500 lists 6,000mm. The Vango and Portal tents list 3,000mm, the Eurohike 2,000mm and the Coleman specification 1,500mm. These are the listings’ own ratings, so check the manufacturer’s information.
Which tents list a warranty?
The Vango Apollo 500 and Purbeck list 2 years, and the Eurohike Sendero 4 and the two Portal tents list 1 year. The Sendero 6, Coleman and Berghaus listings do not state one in the text we read.
How much does a family tent with a porch cost in the UK?
The eight Amazon UK listings we compared were priced from £100.00 (Eurohike Sendero 4) to £367.80 (Vango Purbeck 600XL) on 24 October 2026. Prices change often, so check the current price on the listing.
Which family tent with a porch has the most ratings?
The Coleman 6-Person WeatherMaster, rated 4.5 from 2,667 ratings. The next highest count among the eight is 241 ratings (Eurohike Sendero 4).
Verdict: the best family tent with a porch in the UK
Check the pitched size, waterproof rating and warranty first. The Coleman WeatherMaster (£247.39, 4.5 from 2,667 ratings) is our pick, based on its listed screen room, hinged door and the rating sample, though its listed size is smaller than several 6-person tents here and its waterproof rating is the lowest listed. For the lowest price, the Eurohike Sendero 4 (£100.00) and Sendero 6 (£130.00) list a porch at 2,000mm. The Vango Apollo 500 (£133.77) lists 3,000mm and a 2-year warranty, the Portal Luxury tents (£199.98 and £249.99) list living areas, the Berghaus Adhara 500 (£250.00) lists 6,000mm and the Vango Purbeck 600XL (£367.80) lists the largest pitched size.
