Family tents - how big is too big? 4-Apr-2014 At 10:18:57 PM martym

So at Xmas, we put up our "bigger" hiking tent (4kg!) next to our friend's minarets and various other flys etc. (no one else had kids)
Wandering around we noticed all the other families and actually most other campers had these massive Taj Mahal's with ensuite showers and stables...

So now my wife has said - if we're going to go camping with two babies; we need a bigger tent.
Here's my question to anyone who has a big arse tent:

Is a low ceiling a major pain in the arse?

The Blackwolf Mojave seems to get the best reviews, but the vestibule (where you'd actually spend most time standing up) is just 175cm high at it's highest.
No problem for the littleuns, but I don't want stoop the whole time I'm in the tent... I can do that in my Coleman!
Thoughts?
