A muddy covid friendly day out at Manley mere in a T5 VW campervan - any weather

Struggling to find places we can go with covid restrictions we headed to manley mere to do their adventure trial, on the wettest day ever!!!
What an hilarious day we had.
Worth every penny and fantastic fun.
As their changing rooms are closed it was super handy to have the T5 campervan to come back to for a heated changing room and free cup of tea.

❓ Who we are?
We are a family of 4, escaping city life for adventures in the countryside. We use our van as a daily drive, to extend a day out and for family holidays.
We have a T5 VW 2004 campervan ready converted when we bought it but have added lots since buying it.

Hi, just wanted to drop you a quick line to thank you for sharing your adventures. I am currently mid though a T5.1 conversion although been slowed a little due to covid. The delays are made easier by watching people already living the adventures we are hoping for. So thank you again for taking the time to share. I wish you all well, good luck with the channel, stay safe and keep sharing your adventures 🤘

[@vanlifegoodies]

Thankyou so much for your kind words .
There is not a day goes by we don’t feel hugely grateful for the freedom our van gives us - especially at the moment .
Before our T5 I had a work van that , before children arrived , we used to empty on the weekend and take a mattress and camping stove and escape our inner city flat !
I hope you can get away in your van before the weather turns and good luck with the conversion - it will be so worth it .
