Join me as I leave the picturesque Point of Ness campsite to explore the beautiful island of Orkney! 🚐
First stop: Kirkwall! I park at the motorhome-friendly spot opposite Tesco and take a stroll through the charming town. Discover the historic Kirkness & Gorie, a cheese and wine shop founded in 1859, where I snag some delicious local Orkney cheeses. 🧀🍷
But the main quest of this trip? Finding wild puffins for my nephew Liam! 🐧 I head to Birsay on the northern tip of the island, cross the causeway, and hike around the rugged coastline with my friend Dave. The views are stunning, and guess what? I spot puffins on the cliff edges! They’re even smaller and cooler than I imagined. I capture some amazing photos and videos to share with Liam, making his day. 📸
After an incredible day, I wild camp at Birsay. However, the next morning, strong winds and bad weather force me to seek shelter elsewhere. 🌬️
Don’t miss this episode full of exploration, nature, and heartwarming moments.

Dirty dirty old man you need help boy
Fantastic time you had in Orkney makes me what to see the puffin’s and unbelievable scenery.
You must see great places in your motorhome 👍
Yay! I remember when all chip shops used to cook the chips in beef dripping, they tasted great.
This looks a amazing trip and balmoral is such a nice place your videos are just amazing keep it up Darren
It was nice to meet you at Birsay - and thanks so much for pointing me in puffin direction, and making room for me so I could see the cute little fella!
yep love surf shark
Love the videos brother!!!
What a great uncle you are! You got great pictures of the cute little puffins.
Chuffin puffin😂 look up the sound they make, it's great. I am there in 2 weeks so your video is so good. I will seek out the cheese and wine shop. If you can find parking I should be able to. Reassuring. Hoping for better weather though.😮
Fabulous video x
Ah those puffins 😍 what a great uncle finding them for Liam, that’s a stunning place and a great park up.
Can’t think of any rare animal experiences in the camper/MH but we’ve had a couple of funny ones while in the New Forest, a donkey poking his head right in and resting it on the table and a pony that stuck his head right in a pinched a pear out the fruit bowl 😂
Those sausages would have been even better with Heinz mayo….just sayin! 🤣
Great Vlog, it was lovely to see all the fantastic views again 👍
Thanks guys, ahhhh I’m really missing it, can’t wait to get back there
Your new microphone is amazing Daz, you cant hear any wind noise at all. The wind was blowing a hooley & you can't hear it at all, result👍
I know it’s brilliant ain’t it, loving it. Don’t know about you but I’m missing Scotland hard!
@@TheUrbanMotorhome Yep, us too. We'll have to arrange another visit soon 😁
great vlog Daz, loved the puffin shot catching the fish. The Island looks amazing but what a change in the weather 😮. I bet that cheese tasted awesome too
Fantastic video mate 👏
I love watching your videos, have done for years now. I really enjoy seeing you rip into some meat, sausages, burgers, chicken.. knowing these animals are grown just for us to rip apart to fill our bellys! Yummy yummy yum yum 😋 keep exploring Dazza 😎👍
Hi Daz I know you like your Heinz mayonnaise. Have you tried the Heinz ' Seriously Good' mayonnaise its terrific.
Fantastic vlog 👏 👍
Great vlog again daz
Great Egrit at Croxdale Durham supposed to be neighbour with Wildebeast not me!
“What’s the wildest thing you’ve seen on your travels?” The Mother in Law at 8am going to get the paper 🙈🙊
Need more content bro'.
Or has this become a part-time gig?
Vegan Chippie 😂😂😂🎉
What's the cheapest ruin please ?
Wrong ‘they’re’ on the thumbnail! Keep the content coming bro!
Pepsi max or Diet Coke? I finally tried Pepsi max and I now can confirm it’s much nicer!
7.00 Vegans cant even eat chips here!😂
Hi mate, no rods? Looks lovely.
You could have had a nice haddock, not sure Smoked sausage has much meat in it .
Stop in the cairngorms before you leave Scotland. Saw wild Reindeer, black grouse and of course the lovely little red squirrel. 🤗
@@MotorhomeMums did you know that the Red squirrel is alive and well living on Mersea island Essex
@@tonydean1262 no I didn’t. That’s such good news. 👍❤️
Puffin BBQ Wings?!
What is Red Pudding?
Is that the same as Black Pudding but a different stage of processing?
I should just google it.😊
Did you know Black Pudding is illegal in the USA as is Haggis
Ain’t emigrating to there then ! Thanks for warning
So are Kinder eggs.
@@KarenG.-qs7wc why Kinder Eggs 😧
@@pageant1fd I believe it is because toy inside chocolate egg, chocking hazard when you bite into it 🥴
