Hi BoB Jenny,very interesting blog I only live 25 minutes away from Sandringham beautiful part of Norfolk,but be aware you have to pay now to park at Sandringham wear the cafe and shop are think poor old girl is getting hard up ,I used to go there a lot to walk the dog and we would use the cafe but that’s but a end to that ,lol most enjoyable till next time take care keep safe John,🇬🇧🇬🇧🥵🥵🥵👀🍺🌹🥂🥂🥂🦮
Nice drive around the roads to Sandringham Estate park with you guys. Would LOVE to own a motor home myself. Maybe when I retire I will invest in one and travel the UK/Europe.
Nice one again Bob - great tip ref the RaB on A17/A15 - we are going to York from King's Lynn at the week-end so will avoid it, as looks dire no matter what way you hit it. You are right ref going down to Peterborough and approaching KL on the A47; though Highways England are also updating the Guyhurn RaB - so looks as bad as the A17 at the mo! After York we move onto Exmoor C&MHC. Found your approach Video very useful thank you!
I was at this site 2 weeks ago and really liked it other than rubbish internet and TV reception. It was well maintained and the staff were very friendly. Shame I missed you both
We live close to Kings Lynn and often take the motorhome to Hunstanton for the day. Rest assured Bob, Lynn is an absolute nightmare and we leave home at 7am to get a good passage. Things have got steadily worse over the years.
Glad to see the weather has improved in Norfolk since we were at Cromer, a few weeks ago. In fact it looks like a different country! We also got caught up in the traffic around the Kings Lynn area - as did everyone else, judging by the comments here. The Sandringham Estate site does look enjoyable - must give it a try.
Great video Bob and Jenny our friends are off there in September, we're currently in Moreton in marsh at 31° absolutely boiling hoping to go somewhere today but if it's to hot it'll be 4th day under the tree in the shade! Enjoy your trip try to keep cool take care x
Oh dear, that’s the norm for Kings Lynn I’m afraid. I have to use that roundabout everyday as I work near the hospital and it’s nose to tail rush hour. And weekends on hot days, it ques all the way to Hunstanton. Sandringham cmc is a lovely site though.
Nice wee video Bob and Jenny and once again many thanks for sharing all your adventures, look forward to seeing them. The roads around Kings Lynn have been absolutely horrendous for years and when you look at it its generally caused by roundabouts, roundabouts where there should really be flyovers to allow the main routes to pass through without stopping. Probably no money to improve them as is generally the excuse. Enjoy your travels and stay safe. 👌💖
Sorry we missed - just been there this weekend! Did wave as I saw you leaving :) Super site with the most friendly staff! You even have our Bailey Autograph caught on your walk
Just back from a week at Sandringham …again ….lovely , always quiet. The A17 at Holdingham is closed for various weekends now, so keep an eye on out when planning your route. Going northbound a17 to Newark was closed so I went through Cranwell and rejoined the A17 there. That was fine towing. Kings Lynn….well always terrible ☹️
We stayed near to Sandringham estate (self catering) about a month ago visited Castle Rising on a Sunday morning with the intention of having a picnic but by 10:30 am the temperature was 29 degrees and too much for our Westie so walked around castle then straight ‘home’ and yes the tail backs around Kings Lynn were a night mare as some of the lanes were empty as there were not much traffic using them and my first thought was that the highways department need to re assess the roundabouts . Enjoy the rest of your trip.
School boy humour but why did I want to go "Ahhh" when you were emptying your gray water. Love the weather, I think everybody is a bit frazzled. We worry about our dogs in this heat, a blessing in disguise is that we lost our 18+year old a month ago. We even had AC added to our Estoril in case she was still with us.
Don't dissappear into a puddle, hope your next leg of the journey is not too hot the dogs get a bit grumpy in the heat, looks very nice there, supposed to cool down a bit tomorrow. Have a lovely time & I'll see you all at your next destination xx
Hello lovely melty people. Hope you managed to cool down. Your motorhome is amazing - looks very comfy. I am glad that we didn’t see all 10 minutes of water emptying hehe. Look forward to seeing your next adventure.
Thanks for the video. Saw our van on your walk around the site, left this morning in the heat. Happy to pass all the traffic heading the other way up to Hunstanton for a day at the seaside. Lovely quiet site but your right the phone reception is terrible. EE non existent. The site WiFi also patchy. Used to not worry us but now that we are leaving our 18 and 20 year olds at home becoming more important to have a reliable signal. Thoroughly enjoyed our week though.
Long Sutton has a lovely church with a wooden steeple and a lovely little village, use to live in Gedney outside Long Sutton. Hope you enjoyed your stay x
Awesome! We were ment to be staying in March this year for my Mum's birthday, but had to cancel sadly due to restrictions. We also had a Sandringham Tour booked and Garden Tickets. I best get back on it! Happy Travels!
Lovely video thankyou both and well realaxed pups. Looks a great site, so another to add to the list. I have finally got all I need now to start my own van conversion, so looking forward to getting on the road. And also great details on your videos, the routes you take and planning etc. Cheers 👍
Another great journey in video. Love it. Thanks again for sharing your trips. That Coddington is the old A17 and a good alternative. Sadly roads in Lincs and into Norfolk are always slow going. Enjoy and take care.
Hi Bob&jenny good video as usual.When you was walking round the toilet block you pointed out the waist bands,would you be able to demonstrate how you snuggle into them.lol Regards Mark &Shelia.
Hi Bob, Jenny Poppy& Tara , sat navs are funny :) great hot weather for you , typical we go this weekend coming to Heredfordshire and forecast storms it is a metal detecting w/e too :) What do you think to not wearing masks as of tomorrow? i will still be wearing mine in crowded supermarkets etc untill i see figures, cases seem to be rising more. Have fun all of you.
You have two dogs? Watched your series of stops in Hampshire/Dorset recently and only remember seeing the West Highland Terrier. Another great informative video.
What sat nav do you use, Bob? Seems to be pretty good even on the more minor routes? We're hoping to get our first motorhome in the next few years and your videos have been really inspiring and helpful as to what to expect when using sites, travelling etc. Thanks for the effort you put in on these vids!
Hi Bob,yes it is Sunday,but can I ask you about black water disposal. In our motorhome the toilet goes straight into a tank (similar to grey water tank) we find it harder to find emptying points even on motorhome club sites. Do you know any way this can be converted to a cassette toilet ( no access from outside) or is there something other than a bucket you can buy to collect waste to empty in chemical disposal points. Cheers 🐧🐧
I love the music that was being played in between the toilet blocks

Hope you do one day, we love the life.
I always enjoy Bob and jenny's adventures 👍Woof woof to poppy and Tara 🐕
Love that part of the country, but why after a long time in lock down, they now decide to do road works LOL
Welcome to Narfolk :-) We stayed at Sandringham not so many weeks ago and Internet and TV signals a bit rubbish! :-(
Looks a nice site try and keep cool

Thanks, that's a couple of long trips.
It always seems to be busy round Kings Lyn . X
Off here in Feb to celebrate my birthday, was supposed to go this year but Covid ruined that, thanks for video, looking forward to going!

Yes, we found a nice shady spot at Incleboro fields, video tonight.

That looks a really lovely site, what a shame it was a short visit - enjoy the weather 😎 x

Yes, it desperately needs a flyover or by pass.
Sorry we missed - just been there this weekend! Did wave as I saw you leaving :) Super site with the most friendly staff! You even have our Bailey Autograph caught on your walk
Hi Bob and Jenny, another lovely site , hope you are a little cooler now. It’s just been much too hot the last two days. Thank you for sharing x
Just back from a week at Sandringham …again ….lovely , always quiet. The A17 at Holdingham is closed for various weekends now, so keep an eye on out when planning your route. Going northbound a17 to Newark was closed so I went through Cranwell and rejoined the A17 there. That was fine towing. Kings Lynn….well always terrible ☹️
Loved the vid…. Keep them coming 👍
I think you should look at having Truma air-con unit fitted on the roof. Been pricing it recently for my own caravan.
Except that it's gone cold now...

Another great video Bob and Jenny. We are visiting the Sandringham Club Site in October.

We worry about our dogs in this heat, a blessing in disguise is that we lost our 18+year old a month ago. We even had AC added to our Estoril in case she was still with us.
Yes, it's the only time I wished we gone for Air-Con
Don't dissappear into a puddle, hope your next leg of the journey is not too hot the dogs get a bit grumpy in the heat, looks very nice there, supposed to cool down a bit tomorrow. Have a lovely time & I'll see you all at your next destination xx
A bit cooler today, thankfully.

Really want to go but to far for us Nice to c enjoying it and lovely seeing both dogs 🐶
Long Sutton has a lovely church with a wooden steeple and a lovely little village, use to live in Gedney outside Long Sutton. Hope you enjoyed your stay x
Awesome! We were ment to be staying in March this year for my Mum's birthday, but had to cancel sadly due to restrictions. We also had a Sandringham Tour booked and Garden Tickets. I best get back on it! Happy Travels!
That looks like a nice site, you have certainly picked some hot weather, say cool folks!
Lovely video thankyou both and well realaxed pups. Looks a great site, so another to add to the list. I have finally got all I need now to start my own van conversion, so looking forward to getting on the road. And also great details on your videos, the routes you take and planning etc. Cheers 👍
Love the music
Love this site and the walk from it
Another great journey in video. Love it. Thanks again for sharing your trips. That Coddington is the old A17 and a good alternative. Sadly roads in Lincs and into Norfolk are always slow going. Enjoy and take care.
Thanks for the vlog Bob; entertaining and informative as usual. Don’t know about you but my waist wouldn’t fit into those “waistbands “ (wristbands) 😁
If I can find the wrong word for them, I will. 😬😊
Thanks again for sharing Bob and Jenny booked in there for a long weekend end of November my last trip of the year
Should be nice and even more peaceful then.
Hi Bob&jenny good video as usual.When you was walking round the toilet block you pointed out the waist bands,would you be able to demonstrate how you snuggle into them.lol Regards Mark &Shelia.
That would be a snug fit. 😅
Either Sandringhham club sites are populer stop overs for us enroute to the Norfolk coast etc,.but as you mentioned media reception needs a boost👍
Definitely!
Hi Bob, Jenny Poppy& Tara , sat navs are funny :) great hot weather for you , typical we go this weekend coming to Heredfordshire and forecast storms it is a metal detecting w/e too :) What do you think to not wearing masks as of tomorrow? i will still be wearing mine in crowded supermarkets etc untill i see figures, cases seem to be rising more. Have fun all of you.
Hi Jenny and Bob. Lovely video as usual. Just wondered.....does your air-con keep all of you cool when you are in the van in the evening?
No we don't have habitation air con, only the air con on the van when we're driving.
@@BobEarnshawMoHo I see... Thanks Bob
In my neck of the woods :)
Down the road from me. It was hot today.
Great video 😁
You have two dogs? Watched your series of stops in Hampshire/Dorset recently and only remember seeing the West Highland Terrier. Another great informative video.
No, Tara is my sister's dog, who sometimes comes with us.
Next review then Bob...Truma/Dometic air con......
Have you ever visited Sweden or Norway, you can rent a motorhome for around £800 per week.
No, but I'd like to take my own motorhome there.
Do you use a dash cam or a different type of video recording device to record the journey?
I use a GoPro Hero 8 on a suction mount on the windscreen.
What sat nav do you use, Bob? Seems to be pretty good even on the more minor routes? We're hoping to get our first motorhome in the next few years and your videos have been really inspiring and helpful as to what to expect when using sites, travelling etc. Thanks for the effort you put in on these vids!
This one czcams.com/video/ezuzf1Ycc6I/video.html
@@BobEarnshawMoHo thanks so much!
Much prefer your your vlogs, than the very annoying travel trols. They really get on my nerves
I think I saw you yesterday about 1pm on the M6 or the M69? Did you have a cover over the front of the VW?
No, we weren't on the M6 yesterday and don't have a cover for the Up!
Kings lynn has been awful for a fair few years now. I do like the look of both those sites
We’ve not tried this site due to their warning re dog illness and deaths due to seasonal canine syndrome
It's a worry August to November.
Hi Bob,yes it is Sunday,but can I ask you about black water disposal.

🐧🐧
No I'm afraid I don't , UK sites aren't set up for the sort of black waste tanks they have in the US.
Diden't you revue the Sandringham Estate caravan/camping september relativly newly and got a coment and greating from them allsow?!🕊
We went to the Sandringham Estate last year.
Do you have air conditioning in your motor home?
No, it's these few days we wish we had.
You mentioned it’s been 10-12 years since you’ve been there....how long have you been doing this?
Since 2003
