    Great video. We really enjoyed our visit there a couple of years ago. A fascinating, and very pretty place. Just a word of warning to anyone considering staying at that campsite, the gate is not 100% reliable, it refused to open for us. A quick call to the number displayed at the paystation, and they were able to resolve the issue remotely, so no need to panic.

      Hi there, many thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave the comment. Ah, you beat us to Santillana, what a beautiful little place like you say.
      Many thanks for sharing your experience of the automate gate, this will be helpful for folks visiting the Camper Park. Again, many thanks for watching and all the very best, Tony and Claire.

    Hey Tony and Claire, lovely village you were in there. Hope Ian’s back is feeling better, still waiting on the good weather to come to Skye been wet windy and pretty miserable to be honest this summer, still plenty of tourists around though. Claire always has good information for us guys who watch your videos. The buildings were pretty special. As always take care and stay safe ❤❤

      Hi. Ah, so the sun still hasn't come out properly in Skye yet, a rubbish summer all round then, hopefully it will be an Indian summer and the autumn and winter will be kind.
      👍, yes, what a cracking little village Santillana is, simply beautiful and with lots of little roads and places to explore. We'll pass your kind words to Ian, thank you! Claire also says thanks for your kind words❤️.
      Hopefully the tourist aren't causing too much trouble on the island, we know exactly how busy it can get.
      You take care of yourself and all the very best to you as always. Cheers, Tony and Claire.....and Ian.👍💙❤️🚐🌞🤞

    Hey guys another amazing park up,Spain and France never cease to amaze me.
    My wonderful wife is always trying to organise my stuff into what she calls a much better system 😂. Now I would never dare argue with her( I'm not that brave).but truth is I can no longer find any of my stuff 😅😂. So I'm definitely with Claires dad.
    And a park up with no toilet,definitely not a park up for me and the Mrs 😅. I hope Freddie has forgiven you for what you said about the tip.
    Have a great week guys and drive safe 😎 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🕊

      Hi there Douglas👍. Yep, to be fair for park ups, France and Spain certainly have the lions share of good ones.
      😂🤣, indeed, us men think we are good at organising stuff and then the women come along and have to go one better.....and usually they're right😂, but trying to find anything after they've reorganised our lives is very difficult....thats why every man has a junk/battery draw somewhere👍😎.
      Yes, definitely not the campsite for us, a toilet is as important as a shower when you pay to stay somewhere.
      😂👍, Freddie's forgiven me for now👍😂. Have a great week also our friend. Take care both of you and all the best. 👍💙❤️🚐🙏

    wow, those cobbled streets and Roman buildings in Santillana Del Mar is absolutely exquisite (and the accompanying music is perectly suited too)
    The Pico De Europa looked splendid in the backgraound. Ironically, we had planned to stay there a couple of nights during our tour of Spain but we had a major change of plan at last minute due to weather at the time which was a good call in hindsight!
    Update on my new RidgeMonkey - awaome!! I dont know at 62 yrs old why i waited so long! Used it to cook an amazing fillet steak last night and it was just gorgeous!

      Yes, the Pico mountains are definitely a sight to be seen; you'll have to plan them into another one of your Spanish adventures and include Santillana, it's beautiful and the food is great, well worth a visit.
      Many thanks as always and we're glad your steak was tasty lol (a little jealous). All the best, Tony and Claire.

    Absolutely superb . Great photography and Claire's super commentary made for a great start to our Sunday evening entertainment . We've just had a week up in mid Wales , couldn't get in to the park up you stayed at near the Rayader dam due to engineering works but had a super trip up the Elan valley and down to Aberystwyth .
    Hope Ian recovers OK and enjoys the rest of his soirée .
    Hope all goes well in importing Freddie into France . He's many more adventures in him yet , he's been through too many trials and tribulations to cease the travels . Take care all , stay safe .

By the sounds of it you still had a great time, brilliant. Elan valley is very beautiful and definitely an area we'd like to explore more of. Thank you for the kind words buddy.
