Tent advice

Hi
Looking for some advice on purchasing a family tent.
Not sure what to look for, it will be used by 5 people so I assume 6+ berth is what I should be looking for.
Halfords have this in offer at the moment
http://www.halfords.ie/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductMobileDisplay?catalogId=15551&langId=-1&categoryId=299604&productId=1312809&storeId=11101

It looks reasonable and the reviews are good. I don't want to spend too much to start off with. If it works out I would look to upgrade I in the future.

So... Is that tent a good start?

Thanks

I have a Jack Wolfskin Ocean View 6 man tent which we've used about a dozen times max, kids grown up now and it's available. Great quality equipment.

Two doors, two bedrooms, alloy poles, full roof venting etc.

I have the Halfords 6 man Air Beam & love it. It is very spacious & myself (Lady) & teenage daughter pitch it. We often have a few dogs with us too.

Something like this might be best place to start, assuming its priced reasonably.

Thanks all.
Ended up going for a Skandika Multispace. Got it on Amazon for 200

Piggybacking on this.

Any thoughts on Outwell Drumond 7?
Saucy enough. Ticks a lot of the wife's boxes (fnarr) though

Or is there a competitor I should look at?
