The Vango Soul 200 offers a straightforward approach to weekend camping for two people. Built around a tunnel design with two PowerFlex fibreglass poles, you can have this tent standing in under seven minutes, which matters when you arrive at a pitch after a long drive or want to grab those last hours of daylight. The Protex 70 denier polyester flysheet carries a 3000mm hydrostatic head rating and comes fully rain tested to EN ISO 5912 standards, so you're covered for typical British weather conditions. The inner-first pitching system means you set up the bedroom pod before adding the flysheet, and in warm summer conditions you can actually use just the inner on its own.

Inside, you'll find a breathable polyester inner that handles condensation properly, with mesh panels on the door to keep air moving through without inviting midges in for the night. There are lantern hanging points positioned in both the small porch area and bedroom, plus inner pockets for phones and torches. The tent includes a sewn-in PE groundsheet that extends throughout, protecting against damp ground and reducing the overall pitch time. High visibility guylines come as standard, which you'll appreciate when you're navigating back to your tent after dark at a busy campsite.

The fast pack bag deserves specific mention because it genuinely makes a difference when you're breaking camp. The oversized opening accepts the tent without the usual struggle of forcing fabric into an impossibly small stuff sack, while compression straps let you tighten everything down once it's inside. The entire tent weighs in at a manageable amount for backpack trips, though it's sized more for car camping or short hikes rather than multi-day trekking. This tent suits festival-goers, new campers testing the waters, or anyone needing a reliable two-person shelter that won't demand half your camping budget or an engineering degree to pitch.

Frequently Asked Questions


How long does the Vango Soul 200 take to pitch?
The Vango Soul 200 pitches in under seven minutes once you're familiar with the setup. The tunnel design uses two PowerFlex fibreglass poles that thread through sleeves on the inner tent, then you peg out the corners and add the flysheet. First-time users typically take 10-15 minutes while learning the system, but the inner-first pitch method is straightforward compared to dome tents with crossing poles.
What's the waterproof rating of the Soul 200 flysheet?
The flysheet is made from Protex 70 denier polyester with a 3000mm hydrostatic head rating. This rating handles moderate to heavy rain without issue. The tent is fully rain tested to EN ISO 5912 standards, meaning it's been laboratory tested for water resistance and structural integrity in wet conditions typical of UK camping weather.
Does the Soul 200 have a porch area for gear storage?
The Soul 200 includes a small porch area at the entrance where you can store boots and small items. The space is limited compared to larger family tents, so plan to keep rucksacks and bulky gear either in your vehicle or under the flysheet at the tent ends if weather allows. The porch fits two pairs of boots comfortably and has a lantern hanging point.
Can you pitch the Soul 200 without the flysheet?
Yes, the inner-first pitch design allows you to use the breathable inner tent on its own during warm, dry weather. This configuration provides maximum ventilation and reduces the internal temperature on hot summer nights. The mesh door panels and breathable polyester fabric work together to create airflow while keeping insects out. You'll need to add the flysheet if rain threatens or for overnight dew protection.
What type of poles does the Vango Soul 200 use?
The tent uses Vango PowerFlex fibreglass poles in a two-pole configuration. Fibreglass poles are lighter than steel and more affordable than aluminium alloy options. They provide adequate strength for the Soul 200's tunnel structure in normal camping conditions. The poles are shock-corded for quick assembly and come pre-attached with elasticated cord running through each section.
Is the groundsheet sewn in or separate on the Soul 200?
The Soul 200 features a sewn-in waterproof PE groundsheet that's permanently attached to the inner tent. This bathtub-style groundsheet rises up the walls to prevent water ingress from ground level and eliminates gaps where draughts or insects could enter. The sewn-in design also speeds up pitching because you don't need to position and secure a separate footprint or groundsheet.
How do you pack the Soul 200 into the fast pack bag?
The fast pack bag has an oversized opening that accepts the folded tent fabric without excessive compression during initial packing. Fold the tent loosely, place the poles and pegs in their storage areas, then use the compression straps on the outside of the bag to reduce the overall pack size once everything is inside. This system is designed to reduce the frustration of forcing a tent back into an undersized stuff sack after a wet camping trip.
What fire safety standards does the Soul 200 meet?
All fabrics used in the Soul 200 are fire retardant and exceed the European EN5912 safety standard for camping tents. This standard tests how tent materials react to direct flame contact and measures flame spread rates. The certification means the tent fabrics will resist ignition from common camping accidents like sparks from fires or cooking equipment, though you should always maintain safe distances from any heat sources.
