    We only have a campervan (6.36m) & we try to use as much of the year as we can. We have an Ecoflow Delta & we also have the Ecoflow Alernator Charger (not directly connected to the alternator, if connect to vehicle battery & charges at 800w while travelling) & we love it.

    If you get a dishwasher,you will need extra pots and pans because you will want to fill it up before turning it on. And then there is the extra weight 🤔. Nice pub stop over 👍. X

    Got a dishwasher in the house we haven't used for over 12 months. In the motorhome however, consider the extra water use, the extra weight, dirty dishes may start to smell or even attract ants and cockroaches into your motorhome. all in all, easier and quicker to do them after dinner and it's job done.

    I think the biggest advantage of parking up in a pub stop is it’s off the road on private property and as long as you don’t get moved on, you could have a cheeky glass of cider and not worry about the police.

    Could not agree more Darren I see great clothes online especially fishing gear for the winter and at best it goes to 3XL I need a 5XL due to a medical condition never seem to find anything. But for everyday clothes timu and Ali Express have anything up to 6XL and they are a great fit and very reasonable bamboo boxers up to my size and £4 a pair that suits me sir 😂😂😂

    Dishwasher 😂 depends on how much water you want to waste? We've never had one and never will as wash while the stuff is still wet/moist and easy to clean. Use kitchen roll to clean messy stuff, then a bit of hot water to finish off.. no bits of food or waste going down the plug. We do this in the motorhome and at home...

Fantastic bit of kit though for sure

    This place looks lovely but would it suit?
    Our dogs are getting on a bit now but we have just started van life and where we go, they go.
    So this would be good information to give out I think on your channel.
    My van is almost converted now and I think my first trip is going to be York Christmas market (I live in Manchester).
    Can’t wait to get out there.

    Looks like a great pub stop over .The only problem is there’s houses around and this is what happened .I won’t mention the name . there was a lovely pub a nice big car park . plenty of space for everybody, but the local people started complaining because there was two many campervan parked up in the pub, so the council told the pub they were not giving him a license anymore for campervan to park in the pub, which I think is disgusting. That’s the only thing you’ve got to be careful. PS. I am very old school and I don’t do well with Internet stuff. I can’t copy your QR code for the book. I wouldn’t have a clue what to do with it.

      No advantage at all. They can arrest you for being drunk in the Motorhome - People fall for this thinking they are okay, especially on camp sites. Private land with public right of way is the danger, so no.. Best not to
