Elan Valley, Rhayader and Wyeside Camping and Caravanning Club Site - Part 5 Wales Road Trip
Join the Othen Family on Part 5 of their Road Trip of Wales.
We've left the lovely seaside campsite of Ymwlch Farm Campsite in Llandanwg www.campingandcaravanningclub.co.uk/campsites/uk/gwynedd/harlech/ymwlchfarm/ . We arrive at the Elan Valley visitor centre www.elanvalley.org.uk/visit/visitor-centre and have fun in the play area, before exploring the valley itself. We then spend two nights at the Wyeside Camping and Caravanning Club Site www.campingandcaravanningclub.co.uk/campsites/uk/powys/rhayader/wyeside-camping-and-caravanning-club/ in the town of Rhayader www.rhayader.co.uk/.

    I just replaced the fuel filter on my T5. Here's what happened when I tried to 'prime' it: 1. I turned to key to ON, went to the engine and I could hear a tick tick tick coming from the fuel filter. When I turned the key off the sound disappeared. I did this 3 times. 2. I then turned the key to ON for 30 seconds, then START and the engine fired up, no problem. Then after about 1 minute the engine cut out. 3. I turned the key ON for 30 seconds, then START and the engine cranked for 10 seconds without starting, then the engine fired up. I left it to idle for 5 minutes and no problem so I turned it off. I believe what happened was the engine cut out when the air bubble reached the engine. Then when I tried to start it a second time it took 10 seconds for the fuel filter to fill up, clear the air bubble, so the engine could start. I actually don't think turning the key to ON, put any fuel in the fuel filter.

    This video brought back so many memories of days spent at this site in Llandanwg. We first stayed there in the early seventies & continued until 2020 when the virus arrived. We are both in our eighties now so will not be camping any more having reluctantly sold our caravan. However we hope to return again & enjoy our favourite place & stay in a B & B. We first stayed with Ned & Mair using a frame tent & graduated to various caravans. So many precious memories of days in the sun (& rain). Thank you for refreshing those memories of days, first with our two sons & later with our three grandchildren. A place dear to our hearts.

    Such a beautiful place... We recently visited Snowdonia and its stunning... Laughing at the pronunciation of the Welsh names, exactly what I was like. Gutted the 1st castle was closed 😭... So amazing that the little ones can explore like this!... 🙌💙

      Thanks for watching. It wasn't till after I'd booked the holiday that I realised I'd have say the place names 😂. The boys really enjoyed it here. Don't worry we did get to visit a castle or 2.

      Thanks John. We found that out when we were looking at staying here. With direct access onto the Long Mynd you can't go too wrong. 👍

    That was a pretty perfect pitch. It had everything and it was lovely to see you are your boys enjoying family time. Take care Gill

    Sending hugs to you both, what I see is great parenting in these videos. I have experienced something similar 23 years ago when my daughter was 2. My elderly neighbour came round to find out why she was crying, she was throwing a proper tantrum, thankfully my mum was with me and sent her packing. We moved to our current house not long later as her nosiness put me on edge. Looking forward to more of your trip and more stones being thrown into water. Take care Gill

      Thanks for the kind words Gill. Fortunately we were moving on anyway, but could have ruined our holiday if we were planning on staying longer. Soo glad we have great neighbours at home, as not so easy to move home as you did. There is certainly more stone throwing to come 😄 Thanks for watching 👍

    Thought we recognised Harlech Castle in the intro. Eating a doughnut on camera shouldn’t be permitted (want one, or two now 😂). A lovely old truck you passed and then (for a petrolhead like me), a new Toyota Yaris GR 💪 The stream across the road was low but I would have driven my Transporter slow too 😊 we do love our country walks but if we ask our kids if they want a short or a long walk……… I think it’s wonderful to be able to make memories with kids now with filming it. So sad to look back in my day only to have a few grainy pictures. Lovely video. No one should say something like that to you. They don’t know you. It is a small snapshot of life. There are adult only campsites (or areas on campsites) if they don’t want to be near. All the best.

      Thanks for the nice reply. Making films of or trips seams to be better than just pictures, as you're likely to watch a edited film rather than look at pictures or even the old camcorder films my mum used to make. It was a lovely little site right by the Long Mynd and couldn't really fault it. Shame about this lady and first time we've had anything like this. Yes I think we pushed it with a 4 hour drive and the boys (Edward especially), took a couple of nights to get over the change to their sleep patterns. We try and keep our travel to under 2 hour drives and this normally works ok. Rest of the trip made up for this and met lots of wonderful people and yes Harlech Castle is to come. Thanks for watching 👍

    Oh dear, Edward sounds like my granddaughter. She is very vocal, and we sometimes worry that people think the worse. They’ve obviously never been in contact with a child with a mind of its own. Lovely video, look forward to Wales….

      Thank you Teresa. Fortunately it was a one off incident and the rest of the holiday was fine. It just put a downer on the end of our first campsite stay of the trip.
