- In this video we've traded our touring caravan for a static.
Well at least for the weekend!
We show you around the amazing Haven Holiday Park at Caister On Sea in Norfolk, which is just a stones throw from home for us.
Watch the video and all will become clear.
Cheers,
Dave & Helen

Awww Bella what a star 🌟 and a great blog as usual x
Hello Barbs, she’s a little love ❤️ hope you’re well and thanks as always 👍
Aaaa, lovely Bella!!!
Cheers Romeo 👍
Haven do have some lovely sites, pre motorhome we used to take the dogs to places like that x
Hi Ste & Suz, you’re not wrong! There used to be a touring site on this park but sadly it was taken away to make room for more statics. Hope you’re both well and thanks for watching. ATB Dave & Helen 👍
Hi
Dave /Helen .
Just a big thank you for all your vlogs , just over a year ago we invested in an old 21 yr old Swift for our first van due Mark being recently ill with Cancer, it gave us the freedom and flexibility we needed.
Our first trip in Sept 21 was to the Norwich CCC site( I did thank you previously for the reccomendation )
We've enjoyed evey minute of our first year with 16 weekends and 2 full weeks away in our caravan and of course watching and taking on board all your advice etc.
So, on the 26th Oct we picked up our new ( New to us ) caravan A Compass Camino 554 2019 and just returned today from a short tester trip in North Yorkshire.
Thanks to you both we've found the courage and confidence to grow and will never look back .
Hugs to you both , Gillian and Mark in Leeds.x
Hi Gillian & Mark, yes we remember you going to Norwich CCC. What a lovely story yours is and wonderful feedback, too thank you. Helen and I are delighted to have been of help. Your new caravan sounds just great and glad to hear the North Yorkshire trip went well. We are hoping to visit there next year. Here's to loads more happy trips. ATB, Dave & Helen 🙂
We have just had a two night stay at Clippesby Hall as recommended by you. Lovely camp and, yes pizzas lovely! xx
Hi Marilyn, glad you enjoyed it. It’s another of our faves! The pizzas are good! Thanks for following and supporting us, much appreciated. ATB, Helen and Dave 👍
A lot of people feel it’s the natural step changing to a Static Caravan from a Tourer as it’s more accessible and easier as we get older. But you can’t beat the freedoms of Touring ❤️
I can see why people are drawn to a static caravan, very spacious and well equipped as they are, however we are firmly in the touring camp because of the freedoms that it offers and it’s a lot more cost effective. Each to their own though 👍 thanks for watching and leaving a comment too. Merry Christmas, Helen and Dave 👍
Looks like a smart place guys , glad to hear you haven't traded you tourer , you are the Norfolk pathfinders for us , uncovering great sites glad normal service will continue. Best wishes Helen and Martin
Buenas Dias H&M,
fear not! it was only a weekend trade and yes normal service will resume very soon. We've been busy though so hoping to catch up on your adventures very soon. Judging by the fabulous photo's it looks like the three of you are having a lot of fun, long may it continue, thanks and ATB, Dave & Helen.
Changed a bit since the last time I was there, but it was back in the early 90's lol. Thanks for showing us around👍
Hi Mark & Coral, we have many fond memories of this place going back almost 50 years (that's scary). Hope you're both well. Cheers, Dave & Helen
Nice😃👍🏼, a bit of something for everyone even Bella, I bet the grandchildren enjoyed their time there. Great vlog guys as always.
Hi Mike and Donna, we all had a fab time, including Bella 😊. Thanks for watching. ATB, Dave and Helen 👍
Hi guys ! Thought you’d gone and really done it 😂 we love those statics , modern , double glazed and plenty of room , great fun looking resort thanks for the tour
Have a good weekend
Mike & kirsty 👍
Hi Mike & Kirsty, no don't worry it was purely a weekend trade! Great place though and lots to do there. Hope you're both keeping well and looking forward to Christmas, hope you can get out in your van again soon. ATB, Dave & Helen
Looks like a lovely well kept park. It was always statics with my parents growing up but much prefer the freedom of a tourer. Bella is adorable, her enthusiasm for the agility course :)
Hi Ashley, same, it’s touring all the way for us. Bella is a lovely little dog, brings us much pleasure. Thanks for your kind comment. ATB, Dave and Helen 👍
Nice for the occasional weekend but not for us, we like our home on wheels too much!
Same here Richard, just not for us! We love touring too much. Thanks for watching. ATB, Dave and Helen 👍
Hi Dave and Helen. Wow looks amazing crazy golf is a must 😆 father Christmas is that you 🤔 wow that accommodation looks really nice. Have a great time and don't drink to much 😉 Paul and Sarah
Hi Paul & Sarah, we always try not to drink too much but how much is too much 😂😂 We had a fun weekend. Thanks for watching. Cheers Dave and Helen 👍
Thank goodness for that, thought you’d both lost your minds 😂. Great vid guys 👍
Don't worry Steve, we love touring too much! Thanks for watching, appreciated as always. Dave & Helen.
Great weekend, comfortable stay. Haven has it all 👍
Completely! A fun time had by all.
What a fantastic family holiday park Dave & Helen, it’s a big place. Statics are plush these days especially the Gold or Signature ones. BTW you could have walked to work 😂 . All the best Rob & Gail
Thanks Rob & Gail, yeah this place is really geared up for families. Our granddaughters enjoyed it and so did we but, touring wins every time for us. ATB, Dave & Helen.
Shame they pulled down most of the clubs and I remember the chalets and caister beach caravan park past the bingo hall now swallowed up by haven.I remember caister and seashore in the mid 70s onwards until I took up touring
Agreed Karl, Neptunes Palace was amazing, saw so many big names there over the years. Fond memories to cherish forever. Can’t beat touring 👍 ATB, Dave & Helen 👍
MY Mother and father had a static in the Lake District. .Not a great fan as they gave the same view every time LOL
Couldn’t agree more Dave, it’s the touring life for us every time. 👍
Looks great for families. Lovely to see the sunshine, we haven’t seen anything for 4 days through the fog here in Somerset
Hi Sandra, they have it geared up well as a centre of fun for all but we are devoted to touring and waking up to a different view each time. We have been lucky with the weather so far this Autumn/Winter but got a feeling it's all about to change. Thanks so much for watching and leaving a comment and hope the fog lifts and the sun shines down your way very soon. ATB, Dave & Helen
@@HelenandDave we’re definitely fans of touring like you. Daughter, son in law and grandchildren would love the static site though
Phew I thought I might have to unsubscribe.
Keep on touring
Ha Ha....fear not Graham, touring is deffo for us. Thanks for watching and staying with us :o). Cheers, Helen & Dave
Happy Christmas and all the best for the new year
Thanks Paul and a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Yer to you too. Thanks for watching, cheers, Dave & Helen
It's great to see the retro "holiday Parks still going strong... brilliant fun for the family on a budget with young ones , countless teenager's have meet their first love and had their heart's broken at a holiday park over the decades...was that you in the Santa clause suit??🤔💕🇬🇧🇺🇦
Helen and I met on a holiday park and my father was the general manager at this one in Caister from 1972 through to the mid 80's. Great fun as a kid growing up there! I was behind the camera but could easily have been mistaken for the guy in the red suit lol.Thanks for watching, Cheers, Dave & Helen
We looked at one but no contract and no rights. Best of luck with it. Bought a Moho instead.
Hi Shaun, we didn't buy one, we traded a weekend in the tourer for a weekend in the static lol. Cheers, Dave & Helen
@@HelenandDave phew, glad to hear it. Oh and thanks for the Clippebsly Hall review, going next week
@@HelenandDave we've had a silver caravan with a washing machine and dishwasher in before it was amazing
@@theoddjobcentre6686 Have to say, it was home from home in many ways. Thanks for watching, ATB Dave & Helen
Nicest static ive seen….if only they would take a cat….
Thanks so much for watching and leaving a comment. It was a nice static, I'm not sure if they take cats or not (sounds like you do though) but they did allow us to take our dog. ATB, Dave & Helen
@@HelenandDave its a nice resort,im tempted to give them a tinkle…
Hi Both, great vlog as always! Is there touring facilities at this site? Cheers Andy
Hi Andy, sadly the touring site was removed last year to make way for more statics 😔 Thanks for your lovely comment. ATB Dave & Helen 👍
@@HelenandDave thanks for the quick response, such a shame as the beach and facilities looks fantastic. Can you recommend a site close by that would be good with our 3 young kids? TIA
That statue dog to Bellas right is not to be trusted, those eyes haha... Nice place, but I hate how they are packed in. The beach looks great... enjoy
Now where have we seen a dog like that before 🤔. Hope you’re keeping well Bry, not really our sort of place but we did mix a bit of business with pleasure which was good. Thanks, Dave & Helen 👍
