If possible, scrap this price maximum you're placing on this purchase, and cast the net more widely on what tent ticks all (or most) of your boxes, otherwise I reckon you will find your choices ultimately being narrowed right down to two or three of Vango's low height tents anyway. Semi geodesic free standing are supeb refuges in windy conditions like moors and mountains, and they can be like getting inside a quiet drum tight capsule where all chaos outside ceases. They do, however, tend to be about 2.5kg plus and I doubt you'll find any unless second hand, for £150 and under. Over the years I learned that tents with a proper big porch space make life so much more pleasant in windy, rainy, muddy scenarios if you're out for fays, weeks, months in place, as are tents with enough height to sit up in and get changed in without houdini skills, but in doing so I had to accept moving away a bit from insta-grammy style wild camp highly exposed pitches on the edges of the likes of fjords and similar, to being more moderate in my pitching locations. For quick and dirty overnighters where living comfort is way less important, though, for years, I've used the Snugpak Ionosphere. If you're just doing occasional overnight camps, really nothing too palatial is required.
