After leaving Castle Coch (previous video) we drove to Ewenny Priory and then Tommy Cooper and Caerphilly Castle.

Ooh nice new intro for Basil. He's spesh 😂 Great vlog of our time there, and it was gorgeous weather. It was a blooming long walk too. Shame The Mill didnt have a cafe or toilets. I would go back there again, BUT there is so much more to explore. Oh, and great company too 😊
Maybe we could have an annual meet up there! Like every year! Like the same time every year! 🤣🤣🤣
@blakes4ontour I know what you're saying, but happy to go nearer you or Helen. It's only fair
I don't remember walking around the church yard, but obviously I did! Nice windows in the church. Daint we walk far lol. Nice photos. It was a really nice campsite, a great weekend spent in good company, with lovely people.😊 I'd definitely go there again, it had a lovely relaxed feel about it.
It was well good wern' it! We walked around the church. There were those rusty metal grave marker thingys!
@@blakes4ontour oh yeah, I remember now lol. See, I'm forgetful too!
Sundials weren't the best thing for the UK with the lack of sun. Nice ceiling in the chapter house. I liked it in there. Another nice ceiling. Fireplace could do with a clean though! Ew, kids...get out of there 😂😂
Can't remember anything! The sundials might work if you shine a torch on them!!!! 😉 😜 🤣🤣🤣 🔦 🌞 ⌚️ ⏱️ 🕛 ⏳️
Rubbish when you can’t sleep at night - I get nights like that and then it becomes a habit Thanks for sharing
Could I not sleep? Can't remember. Will have to re watch it!!!!! 🤣
Looks a very nice place and somewhere we haven't been. Will have to out it on the list!
Why am I not getting notified when people are commenting? Anyway... Get there early. Got quite busy later! Xxxx
@@blakes4ontour I'm having my video descriptions disappear and then I'm getting copyright claims because it's saykng I haven't credited the artist. Chuffing doing my head in. It's happened on the last 3 I've uploaded. CZcams is a bumhole😁😂
@@roaminginraymond only ever had one copyright claim!
Silly Billy! 🤪
Yes you have!!!
Oooh! You've spelt Lacock wrong! 🤪
Yes. I know I have! 😵💫
lol this is the one we stopped out I just watched the other video Small world - lovely location
Wow! Yes. A small world. Stayed at the Sluice lots of times. That was the 2nd time at Parchey Bridge! Really like those ones! Ju 😁
lol we were just up at ward land a smaller car park not far away a week ago as a stop over down to Dartmouth
Ah. Right. Gotcha! Nice innit! Ju 😁
That hare statue ornament type thing was lovely. I knew that was a Turner painting cos I'm sad lol. I like his stuff so I recognised it.
Leon had to remind me what the hare statue was!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I liked it there even if I didn't end up overnighting cos those people turned up who wanted to party lol. It was when we were meeting you two and Karl was on his bike, and we ended up at Burrow Mump.
That is correct! I remember! Must do Burrow Mump again. It's part of the Michael Leyline. Including St. Michael's Mount in Cornshire, St. Michael's Church, Brentor, Dartmoor and also St. Michael's Church, Glastonbury Tor Xxx
Not a bad park up. I'd stay there, it seems nice and peaceful.
It was. Quiet and peaceful! Xx
😊

The Ogham Stone is actually a small Neolithic Standing Stone. During the colonisation of Kintyre / Argyll in the early 6th century AD by the Celtic Dalriadic people of Antrim, Northern Ireland, a few of these stones we’re engraved with Ogham script, a form of primitive Gaelic from which Scots Gaelic later developed.
Thank you Alex. 😊 Ju
The footprints are where St Columba preached in AD 561. He stayed 2 years in Kintyre and ventured north in AD 563. The footprint on the right is much older and is called the Fealty Footprint. It’s where the Celtic Ard Ri or high king and various levels of under-kings were sworn in by placing their foot in the print. Experts say it is Iron Age, but could be even older.
Aw. Thanks for explaining that. 😁 That has got to be one of my favourite days ever! Ju
Lovely Abbey so that’s now on my list - thanks for sharing
It was a good one! Thanks for watching! Ju 😁 🌞
👍
👍

Karl said when you changing your intro to pictures of Basil? I do like an Abbey. Nice market cross thing lol. What a beautiful archway around the doorway of the church. I think it's going to have to go on my list! I watched The Last Kingdom!
Have changed the intro but not out until we the vids of us in Basil are released! About 3 or 4 vids to go!!!!!! I learnt most of my history from The Last Kingdom!!!!! Byyyyyyyyye! Xxx
@@blakes4ontour lol, my ex husband was well into that time period. I used to get him to talk to me about it when we went to bed as it would help me fall asleep😂😂 I do find it really interesting though. I just didn't 25 years ago lol.
Bloody great tour of the site Julie 😅. And those photos of Bengali were awesome. Must get myself down there 😂😉
Fangs! He was gawjuss wern' 'ee!
Yes! Get yourself down there!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
@@blakes4ontour Will. DID 😉😂🍻😎
What a fantastic owl
Yep. There we were at the campsite. And this bloke comes walking through with an owl on his arm! Amazing!
What a nice area - be great in the summer Thanks for sharing
If summer is really gonna happen this year!!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
The owl was amazing if not naughty 😂 What a privilege to see that. Site looked OK too lol.
Just amazing he was! With the scary wet grass! Martin was supposed to dry it with his hairdryer!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 We got off in the morning ok though. No problems! Xx
That looks like a great spot for a wander. Gonna look it up now and save it.😊
Yes! Make sure it's a sunny day/evening! 😉 Xxx
Not a bad spot at the lake and at least the weather looked OK. Looked like a quiet road to overnight.
It was ok. Possibly could over night there! Will have to re watch!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Xxx
😊

Looks ok to overnight a cartgate may be useful to us when we travel to Dartmouth to see the brother soon Thanks for sharing Warminster
We've done that one several times. There's always other vans there so feel safe!
I love the name hunky punk and I'd never heard of it til you said it. That first church looked bigger on the outside than the inside. I do love a yew tree, they're so gnarly and have such character. Poor you having to sit through that singing lol. It wasn't the best. They need the practise 😂😂
I love that word too! There were only about 6 people singing down the front of the church. Not many. They all then walked up to the first church we went in and there was a big hymn singing thing outside there with more people! Byyyyyyeeeeee! Xx
Thanks - looks a good location - on my map now
Job done!!!!! 😉
I've been to Warminster (local'ish), but not done any of those churches. Good finds.
Fanx! We aim to please!!!!! 😉
I've just looked and can't see where you parked. Have you got the w3w for it Ju? I can find the farm shop tarmac car park but not t'other bit where you were parked.
///putts.salutes.eclipses On the map its not a car park yet! But that's where we parked. You can use either car park. They don't mind! Xx
Not a bad park up. Gonna look it up as we've never been to Dartmoor.
And free too! Lots of gluten free stuff in the shop!
Aw, I'm sure Leon found it a massive unfortunate turn of events having to go in the pub and buy a pint to get some WiFi 😂 Take it you've just been there beens you're in your posh van.
Yeah. That was this weekend!
He found it a hard task!!!!!
So did you enjoy Carefully Castle 😂😂 You crack me up!
Oh don't! Even now I have to think!!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Was just going to say "watch out for the coos😂". Another good one. Have you been to these two before?
Been to WitM a few times but not overnighted there! We were going to got to Grimspound enclosure which is nearby but the weather pit us off. Will try and do it next week!
@@blakes4ontour I've done Grimspound and Hound Tor by car. Ace places. Is it possible to stay there?
Oh forgot we were gonna go to Hound Tor Med. Vill. as well! Wonder if the Hound of the Basket Meals is still in the car park? And Kitty Jay's Grave as well! Grrrr! Bloody wea-ver! Cheeeeeers Marrrrtin for reminding me! 😁
@@BentleyOnTour You're not meant to overnight on any National Park unless its private land or you've got permission. Shame! People do though!
That is a good 'un. Loads of space there. And somewhere for brekkie too. Good find Julie 👏
Fangs! I do my best!!!!!! 🤣🤣
Loves it I dooooos!!!!
Yes! I agree! Magnificent video!!!!!
What a brilliant video! 👏
What a unique castle - lovely decorated ceilings - thanks for sharing
It was a nice one! Thanks for watching! Ju 😁
Looks lovely although we are not Caravan Club members - new van to lovely
Not sure if you have to members to go there. Don't quote me on that though!!!!! Yes. Our new to us van. He's loverly!
@@blakes4ontour Yes, it used to be a Caravan Club CL, but now they will let anyone in 😂😉😅😎
Some weird shizzle going on in that kitchen😮
Clever though! Couldn't really see it properly coz I couldn't zoom in!
Blimey, bit of sun on that trip! I would go to Csstle Cock but a bit too new for my liking. Ornate though. Did you do the stairway to heaven? 😂😉
No. But we saw the Cashmere carpet!!!!! (Had to look that up!) 🤣🤣🤣
It really is a cracker. So peaceful and away from the crowds. Nice one Julie
Soz. Wasn't notified that you'd commented!
@@blakes4ontour That's completely outrageous 😉
@@BentleyOnTour innit tho! Might put in a complaint to Esther Rantzen!
@blakes4ontour Crikey is she still going?
@@BentleyOnTour 🤣
