    Well done on a great video Rick and heather great to see the campsite again used to work for Lichfield Council and helped out with the site inspections there have been to the theme park many times my boys love Thomas land at the moment but it gets so busy in summer some lovely places all around there and walks and Tamworth with all the shops Great for a short break! Good to see you out and about in pearl shame about the overzealous wardens totally understand where you mean that’s some distance back to the pitches hope they have lots of dog bins

      Thanks Daniel, maybe he was just having an off day, I understand some people don’t clean up after dogs but that’s not me.

    The rats made my skin crawl. The men’s loos were lovely and colourful. Take care Gill

    Lovely Jubbly, let's hope the defibrillator doesn't gets used by any one on their holiday. You brave souls getting out and about in March though.

      Yeah there’s a few everywhere now though in old phone boxes etc, we’re out all year round to be honest but usually only 1 or 2 a month.

    Da Plane, that brought back memories😂No beer no treats with a brew, I'm off to watch Graham & Ellie. Rats, yuk although you did sound a bit camp Rick. Looked a nice site and I wouldn't want to be on that pitch when the playground was in full swing, prices are crazy, if our van ever arrives I intend to be off grid or CL's as much as possible. Nice to see you can put your hat on straight 🧙‍♂😂 Cheers K.

    Looks a nice spot , I am pretty certain I have been that way on my parents canal boat . They are passed now but lived on it for 40 years 😂. I was worried when you said you were not going to the pub - who are you and what have done with Rick. We are just catching up on the video’s we have had a week with the grandkids ! . Heading to Europe next week looking forward to it. Best wishes H and M

    Beautiful walk from site. Yay bonus footage…. Maybe. Sounds a good idea Rick. Wish I thought if it. Back to the action 😂. Nice round there. They were big Gerbils. People camping there 😩. Our dogs wouldn’t wait to get to the “dog walk”. Agree the prices are silly nowadays. Thanks guys.

      We’ll find out on Friday, in fairness if it helps who knows but I thought it might add a little to the channel. We liked the site but we’re definitely only using them in winter I think… we’re going more off grid in future

    Nice site and a lovely walk for the dogs. I’ve never had anyone complain to us that the dogs aren’t in the dog walking area when we’re walking them on a site. I thought you were going to say she wasn’t on the lead. Crossing that field in the dark before bed or in really bad weather for our dogs to pee would put me off staying there. Ours always go in hedges or on the grass and obviously I always clean up after them. To be honest if there’s other dogs on the site mine would probably sprinkle every 10 feet, I think it just natural behaviour for a dog. Thanks for sharing another interesting video.

      Exactly! Maybe I just caught the warden on a bad day…. Hence me moaning

    Looks a nice site and the canal walk looked nice. I’m still haunted by my last visit to the hotel there though 😂 (bit if a misinterpretation on dress code for a work evening event)
    It’s surprising how much things have greened up in the past few weeks.
    Nice to walk to somewhere to get refreshments.
    Plenty of rats there, the population seems to be growing.
    £20 a night was the rate a few years back, gone daft now hasn’t it. I’ve told Rachel she will have to stay at home soon if it keeps going up 😂
    Have a fantastic Easter, all the best, David & Rachel 👍

      I’m sure Rachel will happily go abroad 😉 yeah rats ewww! And the whole thing with us doing rally’s is because of the stupid prices these days. Thanks and have a great Easter too 👍

    Hi Rick and Heather, I have been thinking about going to the Drayton Manor site but I wasn’t sure about it. It looks nice though, you are right about prices going up but let’s face it if you want to go places we have no choice but to pay. I agree with you about our dogs toileting, I’d love to see anyone try to make my dog wait until she got to the ‘ designated dog area ‘ before did her business. I’m looking forward to seeing the van you have chosen.

    • @RickandHeather
      @RickandHeather  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Glad we’ve helped you by filming it, it was a decent site and yeah prices are just what they are I suppose 🤷‍♂️ same as van prices…. Next Monday 2pm for the reveal 😊

    Great little video Rick and Heather, do you get a discount for Drayton Manor theme park with the camp site?

  • @vanandcountry
    @vanandcountry ปีที่แล้ว

    I think because we're new to it the rates don't shock us too much but we are looking at more cheaper options to make the money go further. Possibly only one more Concierge Camping this year...
