    Excellent idea keeping the awning separate, pain in the bum, we’ve decided to leave our awning behind for our trip to the Alps next week and just use a canopy, glad to see you back mate 👌👍

    Just got back from 5 nights at newberryvalleypark. Booked it based on this video and had a wonderful time. Location is perfect for our family of 4. Thanks Colin. Having spoken to a few others at the site and we weren't the only ones who booked based on this video 🤣

    Coombe Martin is my absolute favourite place in the UK - truly beautiful and I live in South Africa where we do not lack for outstanding scenery ! We have our own Branston ( Max ) Love your vlogs and your infectious giggles and irreverent wit. 🦋

    Looks like a cracking place Col. A real gem.
    I drove back down the country to home yesterday, and you know how we love to name our campervans, well my good lady and I spotted a very new campervan yesterday, looked like a decent build, and specification - but the owner had called it Jimmy - really in the current climate and world. - why would you?

    That’s one of my favourite camp sites. I recognised it straight away. Obviously the walk to the bay is amazing. The challenge according to my kids is to try all ice cream flavours from the shop!

      Hey buddy thank you! We do cook in ours but when it's nice weather we cook outside, it keeps the smells out of the van. We wouldn't be without our van hob as it's brilliant when the weather is horrible and I use it a lot when camping on my own too :)

    Hello col, first of all, brilliant channel! I’ve followed you and the family for a good while now (and I don’t even have a van)! You give great reviews on sites and places which does help choose where me and the family aim to go. Just a question about Combe Martin and surrounding area. Would you recommend it as a place to take what will be our 11 month old back end of July? TIA 👍🏻

    • @Yorkshirepoptopadventures
      @Yorkshirepoptopadventures  Рік тому

      Hey buddy that's awesome thank you...
      Having not had an 11 month old for about 12 years now 🤣 I didn't really look out for attractions to keep that age interested. However, I do remember when Liv was 11 months old and her not actually giving two monkeys about what we did as long as she had a snack, a toy and some sand to play in 🤣🤣🤣 you'll be fine mate, 11 months old is the easiest age to take on holiday, happy with a beer mat and an ice cube 🤣🤣
