Hi Alan good to see you both back again did you get fixed up with another job ? You need to get away more if possible that site at bedale looks good all the best for now

Hi Guys Firstly it’s wonderful that you are back , I hope that things have got better for your both. We are now 6 months into to owning our Brindisi after watching your reviews and like you we love it , we had the Avtex WiFi fitted to ours . ? For you , we were on a site in Cheshire over the weekend and it was the first time with this van on a fully serviced pitch , I have a long hose / pump that you can just plug into the side of your van so no barrels , I’ve heard people say that you should still use a barrel to avoid flooding , what do you do on serviced pitches?

Glad to hear your first years experience is a good one. We have a pegasus grande bologna, so similar layout and love it. We have had the van two and a half years now and towed it 8,000 miles across some very bumpy roads and we have had no problems, with the exception of the two blinds to side windows in the lounge coming loose. Soon fixed though.

Ally and Alan thanks for the update great to hear your loving your van. 😁👍

You're right to say a good dealer makes all the difference. We have the same van a year older which came with so many faults its too many to list. Basically every screw in every blind had been stripped at assembly, which I fixed myself with better screws, along with cupboards, shelves and a cutlery drawer installed at a crazy angle. Rock bottom was 1st service and a damp rating of 99%!!!! Fortunately our dealer, Teesside Caravans, found it was was a poorly installed hatch, took the van for 3 weeks, dried everything out and renewed flooring, and we sailed through the 2nd service recently plus everything I fixed has stayed fixed. Since we got it we've been to Scotland, Wales, France, Spain and Portugal as well as many short breaks locally, so it's working for its keep. Now it's settled down we love it and intend to keep it for a good many years. One thing I would recommend is the fitting of Al-Ko shock absorbers, which improves towing greatly and, frankly, should be standard at this size and price point. But a little quality control by Bailey wouldn't come amiss.

Great to hear it's all going well with the van 👍

Great. Thanks I can now fix my dodgy blind

Hello Ally and Alan, Great news to hear you’ve hardly experienced any problems with your wonderful caravan. Wish we had room to store a Pegasus Grande. Saying that our 2013 Bailey Olympus has caused us very little grief over the past 11 years. Hope you have many happy adventures in your home from home 👍. Take care, Rob & Gail 😀

Thanks for the mention, and for your true opinion of the caravan. Also would just like to say thanks again for the information you gave us on preparing the van for the road. Hopefully see you both soon so we can have another fantastic weekend and good laugh, you made the weekend 👍👍

Always enjoy your videos, keep up the great work.

Good advice. How long do you leave your battery before charging

You need a tripod.

Hi to you both. Have watched a few of your vlogs and found them really helpful. We are thinking of going to this site later this year and judging by your lovely accent you are also from the North East like us. It's a long way to tow a van so wondering if you managed it with one stop off ?? Also was there any public transport near the site ? Thanks again Pat x

Thanks for this. I have the exact problem except that I'm not aware of how the ring got threaded - I certainly didn't knowingly turn the burner. Anyway, new part ordered and hopefully that will be problem solved.

Thanks - very helpful video 😁

Hi Ally and Alan hope you're both well. Wow looks like a lovely site. Have a grast time. Paul and Sarah

We love the Laurels, Sally and Neil the owners are fab , it’s local to us but we still go there. They had an amazing ABBA night last August was absolutely fantastic! The munch box food is great, we have stayed on the CL and lakeside like both . You did a fab video of the site xx

Hi what caravan did you have in this video cheers

I too have a bailey Brindisi 02022, do you have the jockey wheel under the A frame or at the side of the A frame when in the raised position. I have had issues with the wheel rubbing against the brake mechanism. Thank you. Graham

Thanks for the tour Alan and Ally, nice looking site 👍. Been on their website and noticed they have fully serviced pitches so made a note for future reference. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀

How did you get the blind off?..

We do the same then spray cadac cleaner on an leave for 2 mins the wipes off lovely an Clean

Went for a look around this morning and had standoffish reception with a scowl “ where have you parked?”. No greeting, just a brochure thrown at us when asked if there was a map of site. Was told grumpily to “look in there” when I asked the tariff. Asked if we could look around, “ as long as you don’t infringe on anyone” came the reply. Unfriendly. Cafe closed “due to unforeseen circumstances”, toilets closed for cleaning and no entry for some people to toilets on different plots. V v quiet, plots not private or separated with hedging at all , and close together, too scared to cough. Rules everywhere. Not for us at all, made to feel a nuisance. Looked clean though but grotty elson points

DO you know the vango sonoma ll 250 porch door,im wondering how big it is as yours is i think bigger than the porch door one?..great vid 😀

A brilliant clear explanation - thank you so much!

This is a brilliant site. I can’t believe it’s only £20 night. We’re now considering stopping here. How far do you think the pub is - walking distance?

This looks like a great site and a brilliant review too!

Great looking site, will add to our list of sites to visit, and its not far for us just being the other side of the Humber Bridge. Thanks for showing us around Julie & Andy 😊

Hi Alan & Ally, Lovely waterside pitches and very reasonably priced too. Rural and relaxing. Nice review 👍. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀

The site doesn’t look to bad for levelling did you book direct and what was the pitch price per night thanks.
