Really enjoying your tales.... we have been binging on them for a few days. Really loving the chill, laid back approach.
Cheers Gary mate, great to have you onboard 🥰👊🏼
The smiles, the tonic! 😀
Cheers Chris! 🥰😁
Wow!!! What a journey! Instow is so dear to our hearts, as you know my family and I used to staycay there for about 4 years consecutively. The place is stunning! You've treated us to some stunning scenery in this one! The stone shop lady was do knowledgeable and we got to witness Lyndseys true energy learning about that stone type. The White Spring was just magical! Beautiful cinematography in there and the sunsets in Instow. Amazing stuff! Thank you for that big adventure ❤
Thank you Chris, we thoroughly enjoyed making this one…🫶
Loved watching this, can absolutely feel all your positive energy through the screen 😍❤️xx
Thanks lovelies, appreciate that! Hope you’re good and have a wonderful Christmas…🎄🥰🥰
Smashing vid. You two are the best hat wearers I've ever seen - loving your work
That’s so funny & thank you! 🙏🏻🤭🥰🙌
You two are well funny :-) Just discovered the channel and your videos have a warm happy vibe to them, also very real and honest. We've also camped and visited a lot of places in this VLOG so super interesting to get your take on places. Happy Christmas and look forward to watching your adventures in 2023!
Cheers Johnny mate, glad you found us! Have a great Christmas 🎄 👊🏼
Absolutely brilliant love this
Cheers Steve 🙌
You lot are adorable! I love the vibes💚🫀
It’s great having you onboard 🥰
Another great video Andy , hope you guys are well
Cheers Andy, we’re great thank you mate…Been a busy few weeks so we’ll have some new content in edit & coming real soon 🫶🙌
Ah guys, that was awesome stuff. great to see you both surfing, and Lydnsey, you looked great. Haven't been to woolacombe in years was great to see the massive beech again. Cheers and merry Christmas to you two✌🏻
Thanks Paul & a very Merry Christmas to you too mate! 🥰🙌
That was Amazing! Never felt drawn to visit England before but now I do! Loved everywhere you went!❤️🙏
Thanks Veronica, what lovely words…Let’s hope you get over here and have a wonderful time! 🥰🙌
Just come across your channel, what a lovely couple you are. Love the van and the fact you both surf together 👊
Cheers Jonesy mate 🫶👊🏼
At Tintagel is a carpark next to King Arthur's Inn, where van dwellers can park over night for £5 a night. There's also a back packers B&B which is cheap hidden down a little side street. Every weekend during winter, in the local village hall, is a record and CD sale which is HUGE and just full of wonderful music and again so cheap. The crystal shop is so much cheaper than anything you'll find in Glastonbury. In Glastonbury and Tintagel it's well worth checking out the charity shops, I've found some real bargains in them. Near Tintagel is a beach called Trebarwith which I think is one of the best beaches in the world it is possible to walk there from Tintagel using the coastal footpath. Two other beaches worth visiting is Tregardock and Strangles, both wonderful but it's a bit of a walk to get to them. Just up the coast from Tintagel is Boscastle, just a peach of a place to visit and has a fabulous museum of witchcraft.
Thank you Ari for some great tips there! We’re often in Cornwall so we’ll check ‘em out. Boscastle is one of our favourites 🥰🫶
Have a merry and peaceful Christmas!, best wishes from Bruce and Linda from Edinburgh.
Ahhh thank you Bruce & Linda, we really do appreciate that and hope you guys too, have a fabulous time over the festivities. Much love 🥰🙌
Hello Andy, Lyndsey and lil bleu, great video , lovely part of the Island, Glastonbury is my most favourite place in the world. I would usually stay and sleep on the Tor for about a week. Next time you're there, take a trip to wearily hill , it still has the thorn that Joseph of Arimathea put his staff into the ground when he arrived. Lyndsey, I think you looked like a lady ninja in your wetsuit and hood, hope the hood kept out the cold. Take care, safe travels.
Hey Darren, thank you, appreciate your kind comments and recommendation. We have so much more to see and experience in the area it would seem. Great news really coz we love it so going back is always a pleasure 🥰🙌
Fantastic video guys, going to have to get myself some Libyan Tektite, I need's me some of that right now. Anyway, it's always a pleasure to watch. Keep them coming. Neil.
Hey Neil, cheers mate, yes, go grab yourself some and manifest some magic 😉🥰
I'm a distance healer through Angelic Reiki and have just started my own online business, so bring on the manifestations of health, happiness and success 😁
love watching your vids, great content, great locations! we've just got our van lwb t5.1 poptop, and are planning for next year so will be going through more of your content with a notebook, ps we love lidl too, she gets the food and i get lots of tools i don't need!
🤣 Good ol’ Lidl 🫶🙌
If you want onsite camping near Newquay go to Trevella Holiday Park, Crantock, their hardstanding with shower pods are fantastic we were there in October!!! Great video as always, thank you!!
Nice one, top tip…Cheers fella! 🙌
Wishing the coolest guys on CZcams and blue a very merry Christmas 🎄

Hello guys. New to your channel, but I’m binge watching with the mrs. We’re picking up a T6 in a few weeks and your vids have inspired us to take our little’un to some of the fantastic places you’ve visited……not just Lidl.

wow, that brought back some memories. Hidden valley was the last site me and mum stayed on in our motorhome before she passed. we had been to pentewan a few days before where , for the first time since she became ill, she managed to get from the van to the water and was so thrilled.Something I'll always remember. It was a lovely site. Loved your video. Some amazing scenery and I just loved your enthusiasm. Bessy regs-Kenny.
Awe, so glad you have the beautiful memories. Much love 🥰🙌
Great video guys..
Cheers Daz mate!👊🏼

@@OurVanTales Many thanks xx
Another ace trip. My daughter and i went to Tintagel in August. Was so busy. We walked down, around and back up. Was shattered back at the top, was a hot day. Did you get the Landrover back? Great as always, keep them coming.
Thanks Lee, nah, we ended up walking back up (did it the wrong way round really in hindsight 🤭)
Great place but can only imagine how busy in the Summer sunshine ☀️
Hope you guys have a great Christmas 🎄
bed research lab! love hidden valley, stayed quite a few times, love the energy, divine timing too, happy days, gonna check your insta xx
Hey, many thanks 🙏🏻 Great to have you onboard & have a great Christmas 🎄 🥰
So glad you like savoury croissants like moi
Oooh yeah! 🫶
I know it's annoying to have to pay to go into places like the Abbey at Glastonbury but think about where the money goes... quite a few people get employment there, that costs and there isn't many jobs in the area, the gardens in the grounds need looking after, the place has to be maintained, there are people on site (not all the time), who are dressed in costume who tell the history of the place, the place is kept clean and tidy, and included in the ticket price is a museum that gives one a lot of history about the Abbey. If it was open to the public there'd be graffiti everywhere and litter too, not to mention vandalism of the ruins ..... so which would you prefer ? The Abbey looked after and protected or a total mess ????
Hear what you’re saying Ari & appreciate these sites need looking after but most other historical sites in the area are free (or donation run) It just a shame it was SO expensive compared to everything else locally 🥰
Looking stunning lyndsey 😂 🦭
Thank you guys & Merry Christmas to ya 🥰🙌
@@OurVanTales You too… both of you 🎅🏼
Hi guys love the video can I ask what the red square sticker is in windscreen thanks
Hi Chris mate, it’s The English Heritage parking permit. We joined so we could use their carparks for free as much as seeing all their amazing sites across the UK
Hi guys, love your channel, just wondering if you live full time in your van or if you have a base somewhere?
Hi Peter, thank you & great to have you along mate! I’m full time in my van but Lyndsey has her own base for work & family commitments 🙌
U went past near me in barnstable im on the military up there
Hello mate, lovely area, I hope you get the chance to enjoy it 🙌
A good surf beach head for Llangennith gower pernisola and rossili beach my fav beach in south Wales worms head to the right and burry holmes to the left a 5 mile beach in between
Top tip, for sure 👊🏼
We definitely need to return to Wales next year in the Spring! 🥰🏄♀️👊🏼
Do you have a van tour ? New sub
🫶
How did you find the right van
Hey Julie, great question as in fact, we couldn’t find ‘the right van’ for us as such so we worked with Trekk Vans in Carlisle with the design and had our panel van converted for us. We couldn’t be happier with it 🥰🙌
😎🍷🚍⚓️🇬🇧👍
Cheers Roger 🫶
If you need a recharge /top up let me know. Pl28
Thank you, that’s very kind 🙌
@@OurVanTales I have many friends in Cornwall so if you get stuck give me knock knock x
