Canterbury AIRE | St Augustine's Abbey | #Pilotevans
#Campervan #Campervanlife #Vanlife #Castles #Heritage #Coast #Pilote #Motorhome #retiredlife #solotravel #wildruins
On to my next and final destination for this 10 day south east trip.
I head to the outskirts of Canterbury and park up at the Motorhome Aire at the New Dover Road Park & Ride. You grab a ticket as you enter then are charged £4 per day (charging period starts at midnight). There are two motorhome sections, where if it is busy, you are really close together. No 6 metre fire gap here! Alternatively it seems to be permitted to park in the main car park area overnight. Almost no cars are left.
Then it is a short bus ride to the city and I then head to St Augustine's Abbey, which has been on my 'to do' list for ages.

Join me and my motorhome, as I travel around the UK and explore some, hopefully, fascinating places. I love castles, the coast, countryside, hillforts, and just being out and about.
After 4 1/2 years travelling in my Bessacarr E540 coachbuilt, I changed, on 2nd May 2024, to a panel van conversion. It is a Pilote V630J X-Edition. I hope you can follow me on my journey.

      @roaminginraymond It's a very good idea Helen and more councils should do it. However the spaces are tight. You are about 2 feet from the next van in the normal bit. It's 6 metre separation in both clubs!! For fire safety purposes. It was a cool Abbey, made better as the sun was shining. 😃

    I am seriously thinking of downsizing like you mainly due to width of a motorhome but also I think a van conversions are more robust. The only thing that puts be off is I love the motorhome and space once parked up. Is the van a much easier drive in your opinion.

    • @BentleyOnTour
      @BentleyOnTour 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @afmurph64 Thanks very much for dropping by and commenting. One of the main reasons for changing was the size of the outside. I have lost 35 cms in width, which makes it a pleasure to drive. No long wing mirrors either, just the short ones. I realise the space inside is reduced, but I now have a fixed bed which was another of my needs. If you get the Fiat auto 9 speed, it makes it even more enjoyable. I am about to do a review so far, so keep your eyes peeled for that! Cheers

    My zoom isn't great either! The weather looks lovely and cant believe the beach was so empty. Just think of the views if you'd have ran into the sea and got your foot impaled on one of those bits of wood😂😂 I jest of course.😁 Cool looking wood though. Think it was a comma butterfly. I love the sound of corn blowing in the wind. Can't believe they gave you a flexi panel. Cheapskates! Got my fridge comes on about every 5 minutes for about a minute.

    The house looked a nice style and the gardens were very pretty. That roman villa looks like it was a pretty expansive building in its time. At least it was quiet, arriving late. Nice views.

    Gorgeous blue seas but very windy. Interesting place to visit and really good views of The Needles. I'd love to go back to the IOW. Only been once and it was with my friend and the kids. I remember getting the chairlift and I hated it! I thought that was at the multicoloured chalk part of the Isle, which I can't remember where it was! Might have been at The Needles but it's been a very long time ago. Probably 20 years.

    • @BentleyOnTour
      @BentleyOnTour 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @roaminginraymond It was a gorgeous day, but so much wind. I think there is a chairlift at Blackgang Chine just down the coast (just edited that one!), so it could be that although I didn't do any of the kids touristy things. I thought it was very quiet for the time of year. Camp site owner said people are going elsewhere. Ferries are expensive unless you can get a discount. Cheers Helen.
