    I knew the site wasn't worth the price on your drive in past the industrial estate. Have you not tried PARK4NIGHT park ups yet. I've had a campervan for 3 years now. The only sites I will stay on ( when my girlfriend goes ) are haven sites at low season. If you don't have the app then I recommend you do.

    Have you tried the Unicorn hotel at lowdham. It's adjacent the river Trent. You can park directly opposite. Nice walks along the river. Either park opposite the hotel or they allow you to stay at the rear of the hotel for free. ( Just have a meal or some drinks ). I've stayed adjacent the river several times. No issues at all. Also it's just a five minute walk to LOWDHAMS so you can easily spend an hour or more viewing all the campervan and motorhomes. Most are open and you don't get pestered whatsoever

    Thanks for the reply. My partner carol is from mablethorpe and knows the kings head very well. It's where her father and grandfather enjoyed many a pint. The haven site in mablethorpe is cheap as chips if you don't go in the school holidays. We recommend THE BECK pub for a carvery. We went last October to the haven site. Mon/Tue/wed off grid less than £20. That includes toilets/showers

      Hi we would recommend rove they have a good range to fit all budgets not just the 50 plus grand ones but ones the average person can afford the van will be used regularly rather than sat on the drive saving miles. It is the right van for us a side sofa would’ve been nice if you follow our channel nothing is ever perfect for me I like to moan lol.Thank you so much for watching it really does help the channel.

    Currently watching this vlog on my TV. As for your U.S.B problem you will solve that with a power bank. The advantage of a power bank is that it's portable. I fitted my own sockets. It's quite easy to do and only minimum DIY skills.bi actually made my own power bank using two 135ah lithium batteries and a 2000w inverter linked to a self fitted solar panel system. It powers my kettle. Sandwich maker air fryer 500w heater etc. I've actually spent 7 nights off grid no problem. Any advice I can give you then just ask. Keep the vlogs coming. Il try cresswell crags soon

      I'd recommend you fitting an all in one diesel heater. Trust me they are not hard to do. ( Many installation tutorials on UA-cam). You can run them legally on cheaper red diesel. No need to pay more than £95. Also check prices on haven leisure sites. Especially when not school holidays. You'll pay @ the same for Mon/Fri than you paid for the meal. Believe me I've done it many times.

      Yes definitely get a diesel heater. I have a Chinese one. Honestly for the price they're great value for money. I wouldn't go without one as I wild camp and even in summer the nights can get chilly. Combine with window insulation. If not having a fuel tank fed heater and go for an all in one then you can run it on cheaper red diesel. Other than drilling through your van floor ( making sure there's no obstruction underneath) they're an averagely competent DIYer job.

      Financial crisis WHAT FINANCIAL CRISIS!!. I was a caravan enthusiast up to three years ago ( I bought a small campervan so I could avoid site fees by off-grid) so I knew the base prices of most mainstream manufacturers models. so when I see the base prices of the same models now compared to 3/5/7 years ago it baffled me how so many buyers have that amount of expendable income seeing as most people's incomes have dropped by default. i e the cost of living now compared to how little people's incomes have either increased very little or in my case non at all. when I see a caravan at beyond 48k I remember just 4or 5 years ago there was hardly any caravans at this price. Who buys them !!?
