Thanks for letting us know and for the excellent high rating 👍. It’s great to be so appreciated. This 30 minute video contains 194 clips 🎥 . Just thought we’d mention it 😁. We enjoy our little hobby and sharing our adventures. Thanks for watching and very best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Hello Morag, thanks for joining us again and for your continued support 👍. You can’t beat fish & Chips at the seaside can you 😋. Another great holiday and we really enjoyed staying at Haven. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Teresa, We stayed on the touring site at Haven in our own caravan, hence £25 / night. A stay in a static caravan will obviously cost you more. Hope this helps. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi there Julie, You’re probably right as we saw quite a few folk go in as we were filming. Papas is certainly in an eye catching great location. Thanks for dropping by 👍 and take care, Rob & Gail 😀
Another amazing video Rob & Gail, as ever informative and entertaining. I like how despite the weather you both have the get up and go to see what’s around you and to give us a in depth update on the site and it’s amenities. Loved this video and how cool to have a train to take you in to town. 10 out of 10 🎉
Hi Tony, Many thanks for such a positive comment, your perfect score has put a smile on our faces 😀. We had a great time and enjoyed filming this one very much. Returned home today from another seaside holiday. Lots of editing to do but one for you to look out for soon. Thanks for your support 👍 and all the best, Rob & Gail.
Great vlog, thanks for showing us your stay at a Haven Site. Something we have considered during term time but not been brave enough! We stayed in Cleethorpes last year on the Showground campsite near the train station however you look like you had much more space than we did on your pitch. Might give this a go once the school holidays are over. Safe travels Melanie and Adrian
Hello Melanie and Adrian, Hope you’re both well. It’s almost a year since we both met at Cayton Village CAMC. We walked past the Showground caravan site a few times and it looks a peaceful site. We did notice pitches weren’t very generous though. We had a lovely stay at Haven and would happily return, like you, during quiet periods. Safe and happy travels to you both too 👍. Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Rob and Gail, as always your video was perfectly perfect❤. We absolutely love watching them, we wait patiently for your next one and get excited when it arrives! Thank you to both of you for keeping us informed, smiling and entertained, you are and always be our favourites 🥰 ps Gail you always look so perfectly gorgeous, I’m starting to wear necklaces more often 😊 Warm regards Angie and Dean❤
Hello there Angie and Dean and thank you for a perfect score 👍 We are both flattered and appreciative and it’s wonderful to also be top of the tree ! 🍌We do our best to please 🙂. Gail is tickled pink by your compliment and pleased to hear you are following in her footsteps 😁. All the best to you both, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Rob & Gail another great vlog we always look forward to that notification , what a great site lots to do & you always make the area interesting lovely beach too we're off to Barmouth soon hope this good weather lasts ,look forward to your next caravan trip 👍
Thanks very much Yvonne it really is a good feeling knowing people look forward to watching our videos. We enjoy putting them together and sharing what we learn about the area along the way. The beach was really lovely there and it was good to get some sea air again. We remember driving through Barmouth heading home from Harlech, hope you have a lovely time whatever the weather👍. Not long until our next trip. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Rob & Gail, Went to Cleethorpes last year when staying on Caister Lakes site, it's certainly a lot better than our last visit many years ago, The site looks nice & good price, we have only done one Haven site back in 2015 (Blue Dolphin) - worst stay we have ever had, kids screaming and running round, adults shouting ETc after midnight, so vowed never to go on a Haven site ever again, you may have just changed our mind 😊
Hi Andrew & Karen, We remember your Caister Lakes and Cleethorpes videos 👍. We do like the east coast and a subscriber recommended Haven Cleethorpes so we thought we’d give it a go. No regrets and we had a lovely stay there. Would recommend weekdays during school term though but we guess you know this after your Blue Dolphin experience. All the best to you both, Rob & Gail 😀
Pleased to hear you had a great time in Cleethorpes, specially as it’s our home town. We live just round the corner from Haven in Humberston. We really enjoy your videos and look forward to your next one 👍🏻 Take care! Ash.
Hi Ash, Hope we did Cleethorpes proud, we really did have a lovely time there. Great to hear you are a regular viewer so thank you for your support 👍. We go away again very soon, not long until the next video. Thank you very much, Rob & Gail 😀
Good evening to you both 😊. Cleethorpes, wow, we stayed there many moons ago. Looks like they have made some improvements. We didn't think this would have been your kind of site 🤔. The pitch cutters how annoying 🙄. Nice to see you had a nice time and enjoyed it. That chippy has got to have the best name ever 😂. Looking forward to the next one 😀. Take care and enjoy as always 😊. Paul and Joanne 😁 ❤️
Hello there Paul and Joanne. We’ve only ever been to Cleethorpes for the day and that was years ago. This site was recommended by one of our subscribers so we thought we’d give it a go. Despite the cool weather, it turned out to be a great holiday 👍. Wouldn’t visit during school holidays though, even more pitch cutters with a full site !! Anyway that would mean us taking up a valuable family pitch when we can go anytime. ‘Meggies 📣’ was the best as I shouted out just for you 😁 Not long until the next coastal holiday🍦. Thanks for joining us on this one. Best wishes, Rob & Gail 😀
@robswiseways5697 Thankyou for a wonderful personal reply. We did a double take with our ears on the fish bar name 😀. Thanks again and enjoy. One day we might all share a flask and a biscuit 👍 P and J ♥️
Thanks for coming along with us Marian and for your compliment 👍. It was lovely to be beside the sea again and apart from it being chilly we didn’t do bad at all with the weather ☀️. Next trip booked for July, not long now. Thanks for watching and best wishes, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Rob and Gail nice to see you out and about again. I'm off to Whitby next month and Lincolnshire for four week's August to September. Look after yourself keep on caravaning.
Hi there Steve, Thanks for tuning in again and hope you’re keeping well 👍 Great to hear of your travel plans, we like Whitby area and Lincolnshire, have a fab time. We’re all booked up for the rest of the year and looking forward to them all. All the best to you, Rob & Gail 😀
Thanks very much Glyn & Carol 👍. We had a happy time and enjoyed our stay and it didn’t break the bank. Good to get some sea air too. Nice to have a hot cuppa on that breezy seafront ☕️ 🍪 . Cheers, Rob & Gail 😀
Hello there Shaun and Sally, This is definitely one to try. We enjoyed Cleethorpes too and loved it at Haven as you can tell by our video. Cheers for watching 👍 and best wishes to you both, Rob & Gail 😀
Stayed there in our touring caravan several times, it's only about 45mins from home and 20min from.my work at the time. My mrs loves, Cleethorpes, Scarborough and Blackpool bearing in mind she's from an inland city in Thailand so any beach resort has appeal. Cleethorpes has quite a lot to.offer, the haven site is well equipped and a great base. Shower and toilet blocks are spotless and endless of hot water. Great family holiday
Hi Fred, Nice to know our video brought back memories of happy family holidays. We enjoyed our first holiday there and wouldn’t hesitate to return sometime. The site is so handy for the beach and what a lovely beach it is too. No wonder your Mrs loves Cleethorpes. Thank you very much for watching and for your comment 👍. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi ya Rob and Gail. Brilliant vlog and that's no surprise with you. One of my pet hates people with no respect cutting across your pitch. Had that in Skegness on a commercial site. Looked a great site at a great price. Nice trip to Cleethorpes. Hey Rob you did the trains again, well done your almost a train enthusiast. I gave you a shout out on my layout Update vlog because quite a few of the model train nutters have vans and motorhomes. Thanks again buddy. Love yours and Gail's vlogs. Stay safe guys. Thumbs up thumped 👍 ....Pete and Su....
Hi there Pete and Su, Thanks for coming along on the ride with us 😂 and thank you for the compliment and shout out 👍 - will take a look. At least the pitch cutters walked diagonally and not straight past the window like we experienced once in the past. Still annoying though. It’s a site we wouldn’t hesitate to revisit during quieter periods as we had a brilliant time. In June last year on a seaside CAMC site we paid almost double per night ! so yes very reasonable. Take care both and best wishes, Rob & Gail 😀
“The world revolves around Cleethorpes” 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I laughed a lot when you said that! It was really windy last time we went to the Fitties beach. We just went for the day as it’s only 90 minutes from home.
Hi Barbs, Our holiday was better than we thought it was going to be. We ended up really enjoying it at Haven and for £25 per night you can’t go wrong 👍(except perhaps when the schools are off 😂). We very much liked Fitties beach with its vast golden sands. Glad this video made gave you a giggle 😂. Best regards, Rob & Gail😀
Hi Rob & Gail! Looks like you were away the same week as us; we were also on the East Coast but much further down on the otherside of The Wash. Oh those 2p machines, once the "prize" falls into the hole, you can ask the man to get it out for you, those sour belts were yours! They always seem to put prizes in that are too big to fall down! Glad you had a nice break! 😊
Hi Lily and Bruce, Hope you had a good holiday too, we do love the East Coast and Norfolk too. I did think about asking for my sweets but decided to leave them for someone else 😁. Thought I would save myself for the fish & chips and ice cream. Thanks very much for joining us again, Rob & Gail 😀
Love watching your vlogs with a view as to where to try next. Being based in Cheshire, we are definitely a Lamb Cottage couple (twice), Plassey (twice) and looking forward to trying Bridge House Marina. TBH, Haven will not be on our go to list. If you're in Cheshire again, have you tried Blakemere?
Hello there Andrew, Pleased you are continuing to follow in our footsteps and enjoying the sites we’ve previously enjoyed 👍. We do like to stay at and showcase different sites and we were actually pleasantly surprised with this one (out of school term of course). We’ve just looked at Blakemere and the first thing we spotted was the red notice asking folk to respect other people’s pitch space and not cut across. Well done Blakemere and they have gold pitches too, shame there are no photos around site. Thanks for watching and all the best, Rob & Gail 😀
Nice video. We stayed here last year, we were on a pitch just outside the toilet block on your video it has a camper van on it (68). Everything got covered in tree sap, meaning everything needed a good wash when we got home including the awning and caravan roof, that was fun! All we heard whilst away was the men’s toilet door banging as people entered and left. The chemical emptying point was also the most disgusting thing I had ever seen or used. Also we found like you, people would walk through the pitch. Saying that we did book a return trip for this year and were due to go week after next, but we have since cancelled it for one reason or another.
Hello there, interesting to read someone else’s thoughts about the site. We had a look back at our video and saw where you were pitched. Maybe the annoying toilet door has been fixed now as we never heard anything. My car was covered in sap too and it did take some washing off. We do like a leafy site though so I suppose it’s to be expected. The toilet emptying point wasn’t too bad actually but a good clean wouldn’t have hurt. The site definitely needs a few signs up asking folk to respect other people’s pitch space. Hope you manage to return at some point 👍. We would definitely return during quiet times. Thanks for watching and commenting. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
@@robswiseways5697 sounds like they might have improved things since we were there then. We did complain about the toilet door and the next day it had been propped open. The sap was awful for us, everything needed a really good clean. Yes I think signs asking people to respect peoples pitches wouldn’t hurt however I don’t think anyone would take any notice. It’s a shame we aren’t going back as I liked the little railway and thought the world’s smallest pub was really quaint! With my son starting school this year there is no way we will be able to go back during quieter times and no way am I going there during school holidays. So will have to find a cl or similar near cleethorpes. Look forward to your next video!! Stuart.
@@shinkins6702 Hi Stuart, We don’t mind a CL, there’s some really good ones out there. We’re limited though as we like a fully serviced pitch. Good luck with your search and thanks for your support. Cheers, Rob& Gail
Hi Rob & Gail, lovely looking site, many of the Haven sites are doing away with touring sites which is a real shame. Plenty to see and do on these complexes. Looked a bit windy on arrival, did you get a wobble on? We had to slow right down recently when we got caught in the wind. Another great vlog. ATB, Helen & Dave
Hi there Dave & Helen, We’ve just had a look and only 17 of Haven’s 40 sites offer touring and camping. The money is in the statics and we saw this last month at Bosworth Lakes. Like you say it’s a shame Dave. Our journey was rather breezy and I too eased off the pedal from the metal 😁. Gail doesn’t like towing when it’s windy. Disappointing early June weather but at least we didn’t get rained off and we had a really good holiday. Best wishes to you both, Rob & Gail 😀
Hello and welcome Peter and thank you for the sub 👍. We’ve only ever been to Cleethorpes for the day before but we had a smashing time on site and exploring. Thanks for watching and all the best, Rob & Gail 👍
There are such things as hotels. They have comfortable beds, toilets, bars and comfy lounges, and the people that frequent them aren't an added danger on the roads.
Hello Lynda, Thank you for your comment. We used to do hotels back in the day but a caravan is something we always wanted. So 11 years ago we purchased this caravan and haven’t looked back since. It is indeed our comfortable home from home we can take anywhere. We have a flushing toilet, full size shower cubicle, Fridge/freezer, oven, hob, extractor fan and of course a kitchen sink. Oh and we take our own bar and like to lounge in the evenings watching TV 😁 . I consider myself a careful driver and you wouldn’t believe the times other drivers have held me up ! We can highly recommend this type of leisure but of course we all have our own opinions. Thank you for watching us enjoy another very happy holiday, Kind regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Looks a decent site. Had a group ride to Cleethorpes about 4 years and the area near pier was better than I remember from years ago. Bet the beach huts don’t fetch £250k like in some areas though!
Hello Andy, We thought the site was great and we were happy with our pitch despite the Sunday afternoon pitch cutters 😂. We would go again but in quiet times though. It’s a shame you can’t walk to the end of the pier because of the seating and storage area. A beach hut has just sold for £10,000 with 17 years lease remaining. Still a lot of money. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Georgina, Hope our video has given you an insight into what to expect. We had a great time, hope you do too 👍. Thanks for watching and commenting. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
Hello and thanks Colin, yes we enjoyed it all 👍 and we were very relaxed on our pitch. However we never went back to the entertainment complex but wasn’t it smart. We did hear bingo mentioned… We hung around to film the advertisement board but there was always someone there reading it. Bet it’s popular. Thanks again for tuning in and best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Rob & Gail good to see you both again as normal first class content must say excellent value for money always like the flask idea,can i ask you both due u spend all day cleaning because everything from your car,caravan and lovely home is immaculate credit were credits due all the best Keith and Helen. Just one more thing rob no luck with your email.
Hello there Keith and Helen, Hope you’re both well. Thank you for your high score 😁 we’re pleased you enjoyed our latest jaunt around Cleethorpes. Our videos wouldn’t be the same without an appearance from the flask would they 😂. Gail’s the one keeping everything ship shape except for the car, garage and windows which are my domain 😂. Did reply to your email and had no bounce back so thought you received it ?? Take care both, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Rob snd Gail been waiting 0:00 ages for you to appear 😂😂 me and hubby enjoy watching you both, that site looked quite nice i deffinitly wouldn't go in the school holidays though, we use to go to Haven sites with the children and stay in caravans they were always busy and quite noisy, we prefer adult only sites now although we have been to a few CAMC sites this year and had no bother with kids.keep up the good work. Thank you xx
Hello Julie, We had absolutely no idea 0*0’0” was going to appear on our walk 😂. We didn’t pay attention to the front cover of the map either 😂. Lovely to hear you’re still enjoying following our adventures. We too prefer quiet sites and we keep away from the coast during the school summer holidays. We have an adults only CL booked for August. We had a great stay at Haven and for a seaside site thought it was very nice. Thanks for your words of encouragement. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
No idea what 00.0 was fat fingers and small keys lol maybe it was an emoji that did not show 🤦 hope to see you both soon, by the way i have noticed you dont have a buy me a coffee or super thanks on your profile, we would love to send you a little something, we appreciate the time and work you both put into youtube . Thank you both xx
Thank you very much Steve 👍. We had a wonderful time in Humberston / Cleethorpes 😁😁and enjoyed staying on the old Thorpe Park site too. Thanks for watching and commenting. Best wishes, Rob & Gail 😀
Sounds a bit snobbish but didn't think that would be yours and Gail's choice of sites, still probably not so bad in term time! I'd have put a nice long wind break up Rob stop them cutting through so unrespectful! Great vid from you two lovely people as always!❤❤
Thank you as always Paul 👍. We wanted a seaside holiday on a site close to the beach and this one was recommended by a subscriber. We are glad we went and we really did enjoy it there. We liked the trees and shrubs there which broke the site up and it was well tendered. However we probably wouldn’t like it during busy times. Gail did yell at me ‘go buy a wind break’ but it quietened down soon after 😂. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Well fancy that Carol we really enjoyed our walk, It’s a nice part of Cleethorpes 👍. The country park and boating lake are lovely too. Thanks for watching and best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Great video as always. Can I ask, how have you managed to get the Colapz pipes to fit snug into your white plastic pipe? I tried connecting Colapz pipe straight to the pipe (32mm) but there’s no way it’s staying in / watertight.
Thanks for watching and for your compliment 👍. I use a 32mm fitting on the end of the pipe. On this site I used an elbow fitting. The socket end of the Colapz fits snuggly into the fitting and the rubber O ring in the fitting provides the seal. Hope this helps. Cheers, Rob & Gail 😀
You surely are 1st, top marks 🥇. Hope you didn’t bake at Bala. It’s a beautiful area. Thanks for watching our seaside adventures. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Colin, The site will be full of families during the school holidays and weekends. It’s perfect here for them and there’s plenty of room on the beach for all. Like you, we both enjoy visiting this type of site during the quieter periods. It was a nice holiday but let’s hope the next one won’t be quite as chilly 🥶. All the best to you, Rob & Gail 😀
Have used the tourer site in Dorset that Haven run and it’s been very reasonable. Great for daughter, weather was awful though when we last went there. Good value though!
Hi Justin, Yes, Haven are great sites for families and they all seem to be in good locations. You can choose your location but you can’t choose your weather 😂. Thanks for watching and best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Great vid as always . We have been a few times it’s a lovely area shame about the pitches there abit naf and the problem with ants on the pitches at the back
Thank you Phil, pleased you enjoyed watching 👍. We would happily stay on pitch 64 again despite Sunday afternoons short cutters. We also noticed the ants had been at work. Block paved pitches with the sandy joints are always an attraction for ants and weeds 😂. That aside we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay there. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
Oh yes we saw the Oriental Express at the side of the boating lake. We didn’t go in but we enjoyed visiting the lake and feeding the birds 👍. Thanks very much for watching and best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
To be perfectly honest John I’m afraid I didn’t take note. Lots of fast food available there but apart from our fish and chips from Meggies and ice cream we didn’t eat out. Sorry I can’t offer any more info. It is a rather wonderful complex though 👍. Best Wishes, Gail & Rob 😀
It was a lovely holiday Paul and great to see the sea again and that amazing vast beach. We know what you mean about fish and chips at the seaside, can’t beat it 👍. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Karen, All the pitches looked pretty much the same as far as we can remember. Looking on Havens website for Cleethorpes Beach they list the pitch types but we cannot see any mention of xx size. I’m sure if you phoned the site the friendly wardens would be able to advise you. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Linda, Hope you’re well. It was definitely bracing but it blew the cobwebs off 😂 . The wind break idea did go through our minds but luckily it had all quieted down by Sunday evening. Next holiday West Coast. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Keep doing what you are doing me and the Mrs watch all your videos you two always put a smile on our faces and give us good reviews for sites. AAA+

Can I ask , what did you say your staying in . For £25 per night .
Sounds interesting
I am going soon in a few days. So we look forward to going.

Looked a great site at a great price.
Nice trip to Cleethorpes. Hey Rob you did the trains again, well done your almost a train enthusiast.
I gave you a shout out on my layout Update vlog because quite a few of the model train nutters have vans and motorhomes.
Thanks again buddy. Love yours and Gail's vlogs.
Stay safe guys.
Thumbs up thumped 👍
....Pete and Su....
Hi there Pete and Su,
Thanks for coming along on the ride with us 😂 and thank you for the compliment and shout out 👍 - will take a look.
At least the pitch cutters walked diagonally and not straight past the window like we experienced once in the past. Still annoying though.
It’s a site we wouldn’t hesitate to revisit during quieter periods as we had a brilliant time. In June last year on a seaside CAMC site we paid almost double per night ! so yes very reasonable.
Take care both and best wishes, Rob & Gail 😀
“The world revolves around Cleethorpes” 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I laughed a lot when you said that! It was really windy last time we went to the Fitties beach. We just went for the day as it’s only 90 minutes from home.
Hi Barbs, Our holiday was better than we thought it was going to be. We ended up really enjoying it at Haven and for £25 per night you can’t go wrong 👍(except perhaps when the schools are off 😂). We very much liked Fitties beach with its vast golden sands. Glad this video made gave you a giggle 😂. Best regards, Rob & Gail😀
Hi Rob & Gail! Looks like you were away the same week as us; we were also on the East Coast but much further down on the otherside of The Wash. Oh those 2p machines, once the "prize" falls into the hole, you can ask the man to get it out for you, those sour belts were yours! They always seem to put prizes in that are too big to fall down! Glad you had a nice break! 😊
Hi Lily and Bruce, Hope you had a good holiday too, we do love the East Coast and Norfolk too. I did think about asking for my sweets but decided to leave them for someone else 😁. Thought I would save myself for the fish & chips and ice cream. Thanks very much for joining us again, Rob & Gail 😀
Love watching your vlogs with a view as to where to try next. Being based in Cheshire, we are definitely a Lamb Cottage couple (twice), Plassey (twice) and looking forward to trying Bridge House Marina. TBH, Haven will not be on our go to list. If you're in Cheshire again, have you tried Blakemere?
Hello there Andrew, Pleased you are continuing to follow in our footsteps and enjoying the sites we’ve previously enjoyed 👍. We do like to stay at and showcase different sites and we were actually pleasantly surprised with this one (out of school term of course). We’ve just looked at Blakemere and the first thing we spotted was the red notice asking folk to respect other people’s pitch space and not cut across. Well done Blakemere and they have gold pitches too, shame there are no photos around site. Thanks for watching and all the best, Rob & Gail 😀
Nice video. We stayed here last year, we were on a pitch just outside the toilet block on your video it has a camper van on it (68). Everything got covered in tree sap, meaning everything needed a good wash when we got home including the awning and caravan roof, that was fun! All we heard whilst away was the men’s toilet door banging as people entered and left. The chemical emptying point was also the most disgusting thing I had ever seen or used. Also we found like you, people would walk through the pitch. Saying that we did book a return trip for this year and were due to go week after next, but we have since cancelled it for one reason or another.
Hello there, interesting to read someone else’s thoughts about the site. We had a look back at our video and saw where you were pitched. Maybe the annoying toilet door has been fixed now as we never heard anything. My car was covered in sap too and it did take some washing off. We do like a leafy site though so I suppose it’s to be expected. The toilet emptying point wasn’t too bad actually but a good clean wouldn’t have hurt. The site definitely needs a few signs up asking folk to respect other people’s pitch space. Hope you manage to return at some point 👍. We would definitely return during quiet times. Thanks for watching and commenting. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
@@robswiseways5697 sounds like they might have improved things since we were there then. We did complain about the toilet door and the next day it had been propped open. The sap was awful for us, everything needed a really good clean. Yes I think signs asking people to respect peoples pitches wouldn’t hurt however I don’t think anyone would take any notice. It’s a shame we aren’t going back as I liked the little railway and thought the world’s smallest pub was really quaint! With my son starting school this year there is no way we will be able to go back during quieter times and no way am I going there during school holidays. So will have to find a cl or similar near cleethorpes. Look forward to your next video!! Stuart.
@@shinkins6702 Hi Stuart, We don’t mind a CL, there’s some really good ones out there. We’re limited though as we like a fully serviced pitch. Good luck with your search and thanks for your support. Cheers, Rob& Gail
Hi Rob & Gail, lovely looking site, many of the Haven sites are doing away with touring sites which is a real shame. Plenty to see and do on these complexes. Looked a bit windy on arrival, did you get a wobble on? We had to slow right down recently when we got caught in the wind. Another great vlog. ATB, Helen & Dave
Hi there Dave & Helen, We’ve just had a look and only 17 of Haven’s 40 sites offer touring and camping. The money is in the statics and we saw this last month at Bosworth Lakes. Like you say it’s a shame Dave. Our journey was rather breezy and I too eased off the pedal from the metal 😁. Gail doesn’t like towing when it’s windy. Disappointing early June weather but at least we didn’t get rained off and we had a really good holiday. Best wishes to you both, Rob & Gail 😀
new subscriber here - love Thorpe Park (now Cleethorpes Beach) used to be an owner there
Hello and welcome Peter and thank you for the sub 👍. We’ve only ever been to Cleethorpes for the day before but we had a smashing time on site and exploring. Thanks for watching and all the best, Rob & Gail 👍
There are such things as hotels. They have comfortable beds, toilets, bars and comfy lounges, and the people that frequent them aren't an added danger on the roads.
Hello Lynda, Thank you for your comment. We used to do hotels back in the day but a caravan is something we always wanted. So 11 years ago we purchased this caravan and haven’t looked back since. It is indeed our comfortable home from home we can take anywhere. We have a flushing toilet, full size shower cubicle, Fridge/freezer, oven, hob, extractor fan and of course a kitchen sink. Oh and we take our own bar and like to lounge in the evenings watching TV 😁 . I consider myself a careful driver and you wouldn’t believe the times other drivers have held me up ! We can highly recommend this type of leisure but of course we all have our own opinions. Thank you for watching us enjoy another very happy holiday, Kind regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Hello Rob, new subscriber (or possible not) I’ll watch later from one of my three channels when TV is free to watch via Chromecast
Choices, choices Andy, I await in anticipation to see which one you choose 😁. Cheers Rob & Gail 😀
Looks a decent site. Had a group ride to Cleethorpes about 4 years and the area near pier was better than I remember from years ago. Bet the beach huts don’t fetch £250k like in some areas though!
Hello Andy, We thought the site was great and we were happy with our pitch despite the Sunday afternoon pitch cutters 😂. We would go again but in quiet times though. It’s a shame you can’t walk to the end of the pier because of the seating and storage area. A beach hut has just sold for £10,000 with 17 years lease remaining. Still a lot of money. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
we goin there next june-looking forward to it
Hi Georgina, Hope our video has given you an insight into what to expect. We had a great time, hope you do too 👍. Thanks for watching and commenting. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
Another fine video. Sounds like a decent place to go. How did you find the entertainment cemplex ?
Hello and thanks Colin, yes we enjoyed it all 👍 and we were very relaxed on our pitch. However we never went back to the entertainment complex but wasn’t it smart. We did hear bingo mentioned… We hung around to film the advertisement board but there was always someone there reading it. Bet it’s popular. Thanks again for tuning in and best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Rob & Gail good to see you both again as normal first class content must say excellent value for money always like the flask idea,can i ask you both due u spend all day cleaning because everything from your car,caravan and lovely home is immaculate credit were credits due all the best Keith and Helen. Just one more thing rob no luck with your email.
Hello there Keith and Helen, Hope you’re both well. Thank you for your high score 😁 we’re pleased you enjoyed our latest jaunt around Cleethorpes. Our videos wouldn’t be the same without an appearance from the flask would they 😂. Gail’s the one keeping everything ship shape except for the car, garage and windows which are my domain 😂. Did reply to your email and had no bounce back so thought you received it ?? Take care both, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Rob snd Gail been waiting 0:00 ages for you to appear 😂😂 me and hubby enjoy watching you both, that site looked quite nice i deffinitly wouldn't go in the school holidays though, we use to go to Haven sites with the children and stay in caravans they were always busy and quite noisy, we prefer adult only sites now although we have been to a few CAMC sites this year and had no bother with kids.keep up the good work. Thank you xx
Hello Julie, We had absolutely no idea 0*0’0” was going to appear on our walk 😂. We didn’t pay attention to the front cover of the map either 😂. Lovely to hear you’re still enjoying following our adventures. We too prefer quiet sites and we keep away from the coast during the school summer holidays. We have an adults only CL booked for August. We had a great stay at Haven and for a seaside site thought it was very nice. Thanks for your words of encouragement. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
No idea what 00.0 was fat fingers and small keys lol maybe it was an emoji that did not show 🤦 hope to see you both soon, by the way i have noticed you dont have a buy me a coffee or super thanks on your profile, we would love to send you a little something, we appreciate the time and work you both put into youtube . Thank you both xx
@@juliegough350Hi Julie, Others have mentioned buy me a coffee on other videos, will have to look into it 👍Thank you, Rob & Gail
Great vid, love Cleethorpes although technically, I believe Thorpe Park is actually in Humberston.
Thank you very much Steve 👍. We had a wonderful time in Humberston / Cleethorpes 😁😁and enjoyed staying on the old Thorpe Park site too. Thanks for watching and commenting. Best wishes, Rob & Gail 😀
Sounds a bit snobbish but didn't think that would be yours and Gail's choice of sites, still probably not so bad in term time! I'd have put a nice long wind break up Rob stop them cutting through so unrespectful! Great vid from you two lovely people as always!❤❤
Thank you as always Paul 👍. We wanted a seaside holiday on a site close to the beach and this one was recommended by a subscriber. We are glad we went and we really did enjoy it there. We liked the trees and shrubs there which broke the site up and it was well tendered. However we probably wouldn’t like it during busy times. Gail did yell at me ‘go buy a wind break’ but it quietened down soon after 😂. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
I live next to the golf course. 😊
Well fancy that Carol we really enjoyed our walk, It’s a nice part of Cleethorpes 👍. The country park and boating lake are lovely too. Thanks for watching and best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Great video as always. Can I ask, how have you managed to get the Colapz pipes to fit snug into your white plastic pipe? I tried connecting Colapz pipe straight to the pipe (32mm) but there’s no way it’s staying in / watertight.
Thanks for watching and for your compliment 👍. I use a 32mm fitting on the end of the pipe. On this site I used an elbow fitting. The socket end of the Colapz fits snuggly into the fitting and the rubber O ring in the fitting provides the seal. Hope this helps. Cheers, Rob & Gail 😀
@@robswiseways5697 excellent thanks.
Surely I'm not 1st!! Just back from our own Bala short break with Mrs Snacklofter.👍👍
You surely are 1st, top marks 🥇. Hope you didn’t bake at Bala. It’s a beautiful area. Thanks for watching our seaside adventures. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Rob & Gail another week away in the bag. Not sure I’d like the site in the school hols, could get very busy.
Hi Colin, The site will be full of families during the school holidays and weekends. It’s perfect here for them and there’s plenty of room on the beach for all. Like you, we both enjoy visiting this type of site during the quieter periods. It was a nice holiday but let’s hope the next one won’t be quite as chilly 🥶. All the best to you, Rob & Gail 😀
Have used the tourer site in Dorset that Haven run and it’s been very reasonable. Great for daughter, weather was awful though when we last went there. Good value though!
Hi Justin, Yes, Haven are great sites for families and they all seem to be in good locations. You can choose your location but you can’t choose your weather 😂. Thanks for watching and best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Great vid as always . We have been a few times it’s a lovely area shame about the pitches there abit naf and the problem with ants on the pitches at the back
Thank you Phil, pleased you enjoyed watching 👍. We would happily stay on pitch 64 again despite Sunday afternoons short cutters. We also noticed the ants had been at work. Block paved pitches with the sandy joints are always an attraction for ants and weeds 😂. That aside we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay there. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
The Chinese buffet in cleethorpes is the best one Iv ever had 😂
Oh yes we saw the Oriental Express at the side of the boating lake. We didn’t go in but we enjoyed visiting the lake and feeding the birds 👍. Thanks very much for watching and best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Gail, was there any gluten free in the Haven complex please?
To be perfectly honest John I’m afraid I didn’t take note. Lots of fast food available there but apart from our fish and chips from Meggies and ice cream we didn’t eat out. Sorry I can’t offer any more info. It is a rather wonderful complex though 👍. Best Wishes, Gail & Rob 😀
@@robswiseways5697 cheers mate
We like Cleethorpes too, nice peaceful place for sure. Glad you both had nice time. And some special about fish and chips at seaside....
It was a lovely holiday Paul and great to see the sea again and that amazing vast beach. We know what you mean about fish and chips at the seaside, can’t beat it 👍. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
What would you say an xx size goes up to please
Hi Karen, All the pitches looked pretty much the same as far as we can remember. Looking on Havens website for Cleethorpes Beach they list the pitch types but we cannot see any mention of xx size. I’m sure if you phoned the site the friendly wardens would be able to advise you. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
@@robswiseways5697 sorry I think this went to wrong person . It should have gone to a M&S u tuber whoops sorry
@@karentoynton8948 No problem Karen😀
Had a comment from Joe Cox but it will not display. If you’re reading this Joe, Thanks very much 👍
Yes, it's East Coast so need a jacket!
Id put a wind break up to stop that cut throughs
Hi Linda, Hope you’re well. It was definitely bracing but it blew the cobwebs off 😂 . The wind break idea did go through our minds but luckily it had all quieted down by Sunday evening. Next holiday West Coast. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
What was that fly doing on your chips again? 😂😂😂
Haha you have to watch the little blighters 🤣. Great fish and chips though 😋. That fly had good taste. Thanks for watching Harry. Cheers Rob & Gail 😀
Did you just swear at that poor little innocent fly Robert?😂😂
Haha, at least I didn’t eat him 🤣. Made Gail’s day this one 😁
