    Good watch Steve. I think you fell on your feet with the pitch/destination. It's a lovely part of the country. It's around 2 hours from Newcastle, so it's far enough away to constitute a night away. Keep them coming. Thanks for sharing

      Hi Simon thanks for watching and subscribing, much appreciated. I must admit not done any new vids for a bit life sometimes gets in the way. Anyway the campsite was a pop up one I found by accident. If you have a look at the couple of other vids I did there I think I posted the details up, and there was a sign when I drove in I think if you pause it. ATB Steve 👍

    He will give you key if u clean up after u. I have pop up 5 litre with lid put a compostable bag and paper in it if ur stuck. U can buy a mini shower 25 pound is expensive if u don’t have use of facilities. Get a bucket bbq from b&q only £8 or ten we have a uv zip up beach tent to shade us. Get a solar powered usb power station. I’ve also got a power pack from Halfords better than the power packs u see I’ve got plug tyre pump usb light I got it for 75 in sale I always take my own shower spray and wipes before I use there toilets also if you get some none stick foil and potatoes and oil them wrap um up pop um straight on bbq. Take some fly spray and rub urself down with oil mix and lavender or citrus therapy oil that will keep flys away always stay away from water that’s where bugs are

The owner told me he owns most of the land round there, about 800 acres so any out of season wild camping trips to give him a call. Look forward to your next vid 😃👍 Ps I’ve just invested in a Drone DJI Mini 2 great bit of kit. Ordered off Argos clicked and collected, thought the box was a bit big?

  • @zjjdskjkfjkfkdsjfkjasbdfjkasbd

    I've got a normal van but inside it has a camping conversion, I'm a bit nervous about being rejected from campsites as I've heard they don't accept builders vans, apparently they need additional windows and a side awning / zip on tent combo? i've yet to sleep in it, it doesn't bother me, it seems to blow many peoples minds that you would want to, id just rather it was minimal and mobile rather than a convoluted camp simply to put others at ease that your not homeless, a criminal or a pervert... thoughts?

      To be honest the campsites I’ve stayed on I haven’t had a problem with, and other trips have been on the wild side. I’ve now sold The connect and I’ve recently purchased a new Transit Custom Campervan. Video on the way, enjoy your time in the Van just make the most of it. ATB Steve 😃👍
