Brand partnerships are an essential part of being a full time content creator mate. I think you strike the right balance between entertainment and making a living 👍. 90% of the brands who contact me never make it to the channel, either because the product is crap or the brand is dodgy. I like to think long standing viewers understand that you need to make a living 🙂
Just remember if your body tells you to slow down and do it. Don’t Make yourself ill . I stay away from the shops and in my van now for full time and it’s too much for me very much stuff getting rid and making floor space so I don’t get really fed up and depressed with it .Take care 😊
Listen, we know that endorsing products keeps you making great content.....can't see why anyone complains......the world is changing, gotta make a buck where you can......keep it up.....xx
3 Cliffs holiday park down the Gower near Swansea has a fabulous reception and shop and cafe plus the most amazing shower block. Individual booths with toilet basin and showers with heated mirrors and underfloor heating plus the views are to die for 👌🏽🏴❤️ That’s definitely not the only one Daz 😉
Amazing journey you've been on Darran, and we have loved sharing it with you as subscribers. Who would have thought you'd be an author as well as a great bloke. We wish you every success with the book. Steve and Mandy
That site looked banging mate, always good to see a really well organised and well maintained site. The new Ecoflow kit looks awesome, love that little magnetic charger with the built in fast charge cable. Great vlog again matey🫡
Book now ordered too ❤. I'm a tad envious of all your space . I'm full time in a Merc sprinter LWB... Have to juggle what to take from storage every few weeks but it's worth it . Can't wait for your book to arrive .
WOW... fresh eggs, such a rare thing these days!! Who'd have thought a shop would sell them?! Amazing, keep up the groundbreaking reporting, Darran. we need you ! 👍🏻🙂
I'm glad I have an alcove motorhome... the large permanent double bed above the driver's cab is perfect for storing things... and you just need to close a curtain... and everything looks tidy... (except up in the alcove)🤗😄
Hi Darren, How amazing your book looks fab. I'm so looking forward to reading it. You are always so super happy and funny love your enthusiasm for life and all things motorhome. Was lovely to meet you and Tash and John recently at the NEC. I'm the other mad cat lady with 5 cats 😂. We are excited to be started our journey next year armed with many of the products you are working with that will suit us too.
Heya. Was going to mention this site even before your shout out, but if you haven't visited Sumners Ponds in Sussex well you should. Awesome cafe on site and three fishing ponds some of which you can fish from your pitch. You'd love it. Good luck with the book. Awesome effort.
Most supermarket wraps have not only shrunk in diameter and the number you now get in the packet, but they have also got so thin that if you dropped one on a newspaper, you would still be able to read the print through the wrap. They tear and fall to pieces even with a tiny amount of filling. I find Co-Op wraps are thicker than most, and can take a good amount of filling without falling to bits or tearing.
I stayed there recently and loved it there, shame the swimming pool isn’t open! If you’re still in the area there’s a great cafe near there - The Pig & Pudding! Great content, pre order done 👍
G'day Daz, another great vid mate, can't wait to get back over there and start touring again. Just a quick one, I noticed the fire stick over the door, any chance you could do 5 minutes on that? I remember something from Long ago that maybe John and yourself and a few others did as a comparison, and I've been telling my friends out here in Australia about it, but I can't find it again. If you could let people know about it and where to get it, that would be great. Keep up the great work bud, you would be surprised at how many things you have shown that now inhabit my van.
I fully understand where you're coming from and at the end of the day this is your life, I live in a house and I can stand clutter for so long then I need to tidy. Happy Christmas to you and I for one love your videos
Good video Darren. Some campsites do have really good shower, but most have shower cubicles that are too small and cramped, only one or two clothes hooks, no shelf or anywhere to sit, 30 second push button showers that are never hot,
Great video as always. What a lovely site will definitely try and book for next year. I think a large boot organiser would work inside the well to store some of your parcel especially if it had removal sections, could then be packed away flat when not in use. If using a freezer use zip lock bag to put meat or chopped chicken in flat that way you can layer these in the freezer. I would also recommend those deflated bags for storing clothes.
Hello my friend. As always many thanks for the video. With regard to the Campsite in Nottingham, would you know if there was a bus stop to the city centre, please? Or if anyone else reads this.❤
I didn’t use it personally but I’ve just thad a look and there does seem to be a bus that goes from the main road all the way into the city centre. I’m sure the staff at the site will be able to help you with this, they were really helpful 👍🏻😊
Another brilliant insightful video👍🏻, will be ordering your book on payday as well! Your advice is as you would say Game changing 👊🏻must say rocking that cap! I’ve almost finished my motorhome. Could you advise me who would be best to ensure it with please?
Dealing with Clutter - perhaps only do paid promotions for gadgets and appliances you expect to use while on the road and be selective when choosing your commercial partners . If you do need to get rid of items leave them at a camp site recreation room with a note and stickers inviting people to borrow or take for free .
Darran, did you know you can get an adapter to add another table arm to your table so you get two table tops. The only way to deal with clutter is be tough and find a charity shop. Good video about the site. Thank you.
I stayed there the 3rd day after it opened in June. I'd just collected my motorhome from Oaktree and spent 2 nights on that site to get to grips with it. Definitely a lovely place! "Back of Beyond" near Ringwood by the New Forest is the nicest campsite I've ever stayed at. Expensive but great. Adults only, a garden bar and a terrific shower block! It's part of the "Tranquil Parks" group. Have a look mate! 😊
Morning Daz. Just wanted to say thanks for your recommendation of The Beefy Boys in Hereford. Went yesterday. Well worth it. The Blue Boy with a side of poutine was amazing. 👍👍👍
You have the right balance over showing us what it's like on the road and having brands on the channel . I watched another van life couple video last night and switched off 5 mins in as they had 2 sponsored slots and 2 yt ads in that time! Stay safe and warm
Hi Darren, I enjoyed the video and have ordered the book :-) Is there an option to get your book in electronic format for a Kindle or similat ? Keep travelling. J
I was there on Thursday 29th when we're you there? CCC took this year they only opened up in June. CCC rewired and updated site but the toilet block was already there
Great Video as always & thoroughly enjoyable on a sunday afternoon. You know i never understand why motorhomes don’t have underfloor heating. I have it throughout my house & it basically costs pennies and uses very little energy, actually negligible it really is. Even in the summer i don’t turn mine off it’s on 24/7. I don’t wear slippers and it’s a god send for me. If your looking for something to watch i’ll give you two you’ve probably never heard off & both first class. Mr Mercedes is the first & no it’s not about cars lol and the second is Love Hate which is an irish dram both superb. Keep up the good work mate and seriously keep an eye on your mental health. I work in the oil industry and i’m always away from home living in hotels on my own & it can get to you at times. Take Care
Nottingham site looks very nice, will investigate further. Can you please polish out that long vertical scratch on your side window! Might make a good diy 'how to' episode, we've all caught a branch or bush lol. Carry on the great work.
Is it worth you having one of those storage places in the Midlands for example where you can have stuff sent to and they put it in your storage container for you, and you could head there when passing though.
Very interesting video Darren it must be so difficult to find room for all the things companies send you and some of it must be so bad that it must be difficult to sat what I know you will you are always honest what you think about an item if it’s crap then it’s crap. Talking about clutter we have just had solar panel fitted by our local council. But the worst thing was the 2 days of the scaffolding going up then the solar panels took 5 hours to put up then it will be 2 days to take the scaffolding down and the noise is horrendous I will be glad when it’s finished. I am so great full for the Council to fit us Solar panels for free but no one tells you about the hassle that goes on to get these things done also when the panels are making extra electricity it is sent to the national grid then a couple of times a year they send you a cheque for the electricity you have sent them but ours will go to the council. Anyway that’s the moan over thanks again for another brilliant video ❤
@TheUrbanMotorhome Darren, You look like you just lost your VIRGINITY holding that solar panel the charger and the little power Bank 😂😂😂😂 Can you charge the little magnetic phone charger and charge your phone at the same time without it burning out all getting hot? Many thanks CELER ET AUDAX
Further to my comment about leaving your stuff for people to take free at a campsite .Let people know on your channel as you leave that you have left free stuff. Do it after you leave so your exact whereabouts is protected .
Honestly a few reasons, I’ve done competitions in the past and they can only fairly be run on somewhere like Instagram or facebook which annoys a lot of people. Secondly shipping them costs a fair whack and UK only. I’ve just never had much positive success from giveaways unfortunately mate 🤷🏻♂️
£38.50 for night in freezing December at Nottingham, bargain🤣, well done uk for sending all motorhomes to mainland Europe and they take all business, 10y forward all camp sites empty even in season, towns and villages empty off tourist ant there u have it 👏👏👏
Daz what about a live Xmas giveaway with the products your asked to promote Come on Daz share the wealth lol like urban vanlife do with their promo's Great vlog nice site will wait for the live vlog night in a couple of weeks 😊

Cracking video!
Further to my comment about leaving your stuff for people to take free at a campsite .Let people know on your channel as you leave that you have left free stuff. Do it after you leave so your exact whereabouts is protected .
Why don’t you give them away for free to your viewers on competitions, whatever instead of moaning about where you gotta put them somewhere?
Honestly a few reasons, I’ve done competitions in the past and they can only fairly be run on somewhere like Instagram or facebook which annoys a lot of people. Secondly shipping them costs a fair whack and UK only. I’ve just never had much positive success from giveaways unfortunately mate 🤷🏻♂️
Looks ama,ing, better than being stuck here in Rlow , just wanna sit round that fire
Dude, please check out Eye Kettleby Lakes by Melton Mowbray, absolutely a 5 star + experience.
