    I can certainly see the appeal of the Basecamp and the adventures it enables. Stunning scenery. Looking forward to the next one.

    Another brilliant run away in The Basecamp and a pity you only had a few days….You have only scratched the surface of Scotland and hopefully you return for a longer exploration. I could watch your exploits for hours…Bravo

      @FlyCampCaravanNorthWales My wife and I have toured/walked (where possible) the entire Welsh and English coastline whilst using a Gobur (folding caravan) over the last 3 years.
      We thought we may need to get a motorhome to do Scotland, but your videos have convinced us to get a Basecamp 2.
      Random question: Did you fit the TV bracket?

      @@mickjohnson3769 impressive👏👏👏 I’m slowly on a similar journey. Depending on the year, Basecamp’s are supplied with the TV bracket installed or prepped ready for one to be fitted. Mine was already installed. We have been to Scotland in a Motorhome and found we couldn’t explore much and spent our days driving. I prefer going to Scotland now with a caravan and basing in a particular area for a week or so and fully exploring with the ease of a car. The Basecamp is ideal for its compact size yet very comfortable and practical.

    • @FlyCampCaravanNorthWales

    Nick what can i say i’ve been looking forward to this one and you certainly didn’t disappoint an absolute cracking vlog. A 10 hour drive is no mean feat towing the basecamp. I stayed in Inverness last month at the Culloden caravan site and had a day trip to Skye drove past the Morvich Caravan site visited Eilean Donan castle then headed up to Portree. It’s a jaw droppingly stunning area of the Highlands dripping in History. That looked like a nice wee site a great base for Skye and the surrounding area. Your Drone footage is spectacular mate. An absolutely stunning vlog and you cracked it with the weather.
    Which way did you go did you go through Fort William ? How did your car manage?
    Look forward to your next one mate 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    • @FlyCampCaravanNorthWales
      @FlyCampCaravanNorthWales  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thanks John. I shot far too much content so left lots out as I try to keep my vlogs to the 20mins mark. Yes I went through fort William and then Glencoe. It’s the best way to go! On the way there the car drank the petrol averaging 25mpg. I usually get 32 to 36 with the BC on the back but it’s uphill all the way from Preston on the way out. The car performed well however I wouldn’t want to put a heavier caravan on the back. I think the Audi would start to struggle. We were very lucky with the weather it has to be said. Amazing trip…. Already want to go back. There was loads I had planned but we just didn’t have the time to do it. Scotland is absolutely awesome.

      Hopefully you get that sorted soon mate id love to see more pictures. We were wondering where to stay up around there so Morvich is a good base for us not far from Glen Shiel also where the battle took place in 1719 stopped there on the way back from Skye a few hills though for towing

      Hi Nick ive just watched this epic vlog again and noticed your drone charging under the tv. What make is it? Is it a DJI as i also noticed what looked like a controller for it 🤔. I have a lager drone that has its own controller and screen but i thought all the wee drones were controlled by Hooking up a phone to the handset.
      I have a mavic pro my phone connects to the handset which i don’t like.

      @@johnstewart2507 Hi John. the Drone is the DJI Mavic Air 3 Pro. It’s awesome. I upgraded from the Mavic Air 2 which had the controller hooked to the phone. I’ve been blown away by the performance of the Mavic Air 3 Pro. Expensive upgrade which has transformed the quality and possibilities of the aerial content. However, I would only recommend that level of investment if you were significantly into filmmaking.
