In this UK vanlife vlog, we visit Dorset and the Jurrasic coast. The Jurrasic Coast is a UNESCO World Heritage Site & stretches 95 miles and starts at Old Harrys rocks which was our first stop. We also visit the iconic Durdle Door and its neighbours Lulworth Cove & Stair Cove. We are so happy to be back to vanlife in our T4 Camper and this was the perfect first place to come since we got the van fixed.

⭐ About Travel Beans:
Welcome to the official Travel Beans TH-cam channel! On this channel, you’ll find a variety of travel and vlog content, in which you’ll see us in places like Thailand, Japan, USA, Slovenia, and more.
In 2017 we left home with just £500 in our bank account and a dream to make a sustainable travel lifestyle happen! We are now living our dream as digital nomads and want to inspire you to create your own story, whatever it may be!
After 5 years of aimless, yet enjoyable, backpacking around the world we found ourselves in New York City battling with depression. At this point, we decided to go home and confront this problem head-on. After 6 tough months at home we decided to go away again, but this time with a goal in mind.. to turn travel into a lifestyle.
Our time spent battling depression has influenced our outlook on life dramatically! We are now traveling the world in search of what makes us happy. In our vlogs, we talk openly and honestly about our travel experiences, the digital nomad life and depression. We hope our videos can help to inspire you to create a life that makes you happy!

Knobless Beans, thanks again for making me smile, while the 2 of you crack yourselves up!
That's definitely a peregrine, we have them nesting in the church tower 100 yards from our house ( Preston)
Glad you got it fixed! I know what you mean about smells. Sent my Daughter an old shirt worn by my Grandson, when he was a baby, to be given to my Great Grand son to wear. She stated it smelled like my house, which due to Covid she hasn’t been able to visit from out of state. And the smell made her cry. Good to see new videos! ❤️
Aw... I can completely relate to that! I love visiting my family house.. the smell of home is so special 🥰
Love you both, in or out of the uk, as an israeli who lives in France ill be happy to see you exploring those places , in your own style and your love to life that is very authentique and totaly addictive ! keep on vanning, fanning and laughing !
Love you two in the old videos and the three of you in the new ones.
You two!!! What are you like! Emma, so happy and content and giggly all the time, Alex, smiling even when you're annoyed! 😂 so refreshing 💜 P.S. After traveling all that way, why didn't you buy some plain biscuits to go with the rather delicious looking cheese!?🤣🤣🤣💜💜💜
Those beaches were just so STUNNING! Thanks for capturing it for all of us to see
The steam train from Corfe Castle to Swanage is well worth a revisit to Dorset. Great video guys. Had a fantastic holiday there a few years back 🥰
I laughed so much at the end of this vlog - you two are a tonic! :-)
😂💛 so happy to hear it!
Absolutely love Dorset and it’s a good thing you didn’t go for a swim in that water or you really would be knobless 😂
Bitter and cold…🤣🤣🤣 you had me in stitches with that
🤣
Cracking up at the cheese saga and the awkwardness of buying something, as it was a small shop! 🤣 Beautiful scenery!! Love UK… my favourite place on earth; really looking forward to all the van travels there!!
I still have never been to the UK and I've been dying to as of late!
The pigs a great idea. Travelling beans & bacon. Sounds yummy.
😂
Happy you're back on the road! Dorset is gorgeous.
Thanks Susan! 🙏
Hilarious as always, enjoyed immensely! 😆
Ah thanks Chris! 🙏💛 so glad you enjoyed it!
I was kinda buzzed to see you guys nibbling on a Dorset nob with stinky moldy cheese :-p But a crusty delicacy cracking between Alex's teeth while his face clearly signals to be in heaven... will do. I also loved Emma knocking on a Durtle door which was already open :-)
Good to be Happy... Wherever you go! ❤️
Yay! Glad you got your van fixed. Gosh so Beautiful 💙💙💙 truly thank you for sharing your Country's Beauty
Thank you!
Whats weird, Thailand was beautiful, but I really like your broken old van adventures more! 💗 Glad the beans mobile is now fixed! 👍🏻😂
Aw 🥰 that's great to hear! We love variety when it comes to travel.. so we are so grateful to have our lovely old van to help us explore the beautiful UK when we're here 💛
If you guy's are going to Norway and Finland, please do all the services in Poland before you leave! Change engine oil and filter, transmission oil, timing belt and water pump change (its cheap) check the dust covers of the driveshafts, and remember to grease the bearings if you do not have any noise yet.. And if the brakes are about to need a change, do that in Poland also.. Then you will have a worry free vacation 💪
And a last thing you can do, it's a preventative thing to put a diesel additive in the fuel tank.. Take a bottle and put it in the tank, fill it full and way you go...
So glad your home safe n sound , and so glad the van is ok ,great vid as always xx
These videos make me feel like everything is gonna be ok
Aw Angela! 💛💛💛 this is so sweet.. and you're right, everything IS going to be OK. The universe always has a way of balancing everything out 😊💛
Good to hear that it was relatively easy to get the van running again :-)
Hi Travel Beans - greetings from Australia. Glad your van did not become a “has bean”! Your experience reminded me of my first car, a Mercedes 170 (pictured). In the 1960’s I drove from Melbourne to Jindabyne via the back roads and broke a rod at the back of the gearbox (we treated the Merc like a Land Rover). I had no reverse and had to crash all gears for about 570km back to Melbourne. Enjoyed your van conversion videos.
We went to Bridport, and Westbay when we were in that area. Did laundry, and got ready meals we ate at the air bnb which was sooo cool a converted old bakery. The beaches were amazing. We got a hamburger in Westbay that was for sure sausage of some kind. Alex would have loved it. lol
😂
1. Clovelly
Drove a long way to get to it
It is good and one of those things that's on your bucket list and you've heard so much about it, so you got to do it but keep your expectations low
2. Tintagel Castle: It's ruin rather than a Castle
I missed that part of it while planning for it
Bring a strong bladder and knees with you
Hello, as you said, your in Thailand one day then back home in England?? I can't begin to wrap my head around all the traveling, crossing borders, customs, passport and all!!!!. I just love your experiences of your travels.. abroad... be safe and healthy 🙏 enjoy your adventures.💙
So glad it was just the linkage bushes! I mentioned that as soon as you guys said he sorted it with cable ties, since then mine have gone on my T4 too 😂 love how you guys are together. Really wish one day I will be there too ❤️ very sweet guys
So sorry to hear you didn't get any knob, hope you managed to get some eventually! ;-)
You had a narrow escape with not having any Dorset Knobs. They are SO HARD you could build a footbridge to Old Harry with them. We tried them once, and left one out deliberately to see if it would get softer as it went stale. It didn’t. It just got harder. (LOL) Just NO.
Beautiful beaches? You need to come down to Cornwall, never mind Dorset. Kynance Cove at low tide. Gwithian Towans - 3 miles of golden sand…..
Kettle’s on - see you when you get here!
Oh - and “When You Scan We Can” - National Trust members scan their membership card to get free parking all day - the place where you scanned it get a portion of your monthly membership fee to help fund and preserve that place. Membership for a couple is £10 a month , and considering it costs about £8 to park all day at some places it’s well worth it.
No, I don’t work for them 🤣 but yes we have a membership. 🤪👍🏻
Haha sounds like we were lucky then! 😄 We would love to take the van down to Cornwall! Perhaps after the school holidays are over 😁
Agreed, Dorset knobs are awful - definitely a lucky escape with the shop having run out!
I did not know what a nob meant in British English, now I get why you were laughing so much. The coast of England is so beauiful. Thank you!
😂 yes.. and thank you for watching! We're so privileged to be able to share so many beautiful places here 🥰
Great video as always, you two crack me up! 🤣 honestly your a great couple and it really comes across ......soppy moment over! Safe travels in the lovely t4 🤙
Aw thanks Colin! 🥰 that's so nice to say! We appreciate the soppy moments 💛🙏 thank you!
I love Dorset knobs too! 😋 Have the Dorset Knob tin and mail order Dorset knobs all the way from Scotland 🏴
Beautiful coastline.👍😊
Great video guys.I hope to see one day Old Harrys rocks and the rock with a hole.
"You might even spot some of the local wildlife before you leave".....I spat my vodka everywhere hahahaha
Nice to see a video from the Travel Knobs! 🤣
😂 the travel knobs.. it has a nice ring to it!
Stunning scenery vlogged so well. You guys capture the moments with a great sense of humor. The van back on the road brings you back to good karma. Love you guys'
Thank you so much! 🙏🥰
Pigs r great! Had them as pets as a kid, but traveling with one??? Love ur videos! God bless! I laugh more at ur videos than any others! Keep up ur great work!!
Knobless section was hilarious guys! Great video. I will definitely be heading to that coastline this year!
Durdle doooooooor! One of my faves
It’s a shame you missed out on your knobs but at least I got to have good ole laugh with you all!! 😂😂👌👍
The girl could be a tv presenter
She has such a gd voice & presence for it …
Aw thank you! 🥰
Wonderful video. Nice creation.
Great work friends.
Hello, I would just like to say a huge well done on returning to U.K camper holidays. Love Dorset and you should have tried Corfe Castle due to their cream teas… happy memories of slicing a scone into three, not two and applying oodles of cream and strawberry jam to each slice whilst watching a steam train pass by below - magnificent views too. Keep up the U.K. trips please….
Thank you! Such a beautiful area.. we will have to go back again sometime and visit what we missed!
Great vlog guys. Beautiful footage and you made me cry laughing with your knobless biccies!! 😅 x
Yesssss the van is fixed, travel beans back on the road again (nice impression of Danny Mallin from Rate my takeaway 🤔)
Beautiful.
This past weekend!!! We drove a ridiculous distance to see some stuff that was closed, even though the websites said they were open... And this same rule also applied to EVERY SINGLE place we tried to eat lunch at, because I don't know if you know, but Sunday's in the Southeast US, most stuff (if it's even open) closes as soon as the church crowd finishes lunch. Unfortunately, we spent so much time driving in literal circles to places that were closed, we missed the lunch window for every place we wanted to eat at. I feel your pain. 😂
Oh no! That's the worst!! You must have been so hungry 😅 I hope you brought road trip snacks!
@@TravelBeans I’m chubby so there’s always snacks… 😂😂😂😂
Hi, Really pleased to see this channel. Love the humour and the innuendo and plus all the informative stuff too. looking forward to watching more of your stuff.
Welcome!! So happy yo hear you enjoyed it! 🥰
Vantastic.
Guys, we live in Somerset, 2 miles from the border! Hit us up next time and we will show you around with our sprinter too :-) would love to show you both what our county and Dorset has to offer
Excellent news!
Nice to have you both back 🍻😏😋
Great video... From Swanage to Lyme Regis is certainly a beautiful place to live!
Great news!
Nice to see you back in the good old UK Brilliant video beautiful part of the world
Thanks Kevin! 🙏💛
Last year on my birthday we drove 8 hours to Rakotzbrücke in South-East Germany to discover the lake had been drained of water and the bridge covered in scaffolding. 🙈 The take away from that was, don't trust Google maps when it says "open" ! Double check!!
Oh no!!! Haha yes Google has caught us out a couple of times saying things are open when they haven't been 🤦♀️
Definitely a peregrine. Quite common along the cliff tops on the Jurassic coast.
Nice! Good to know!
Do you two, ever not be happy x brilliant couple x
"As well as the activities on offer, if you are lucky, you might even spot some of the local wildlife before you leave."
(View of older English bather falling over backwards in the water) 🤣
There is no doubt who edited this footage... none, whatsoever.
A classic Beans vlog, not sure if it’s down to the editing or you were just relaxed and enjoying yourselves, maybe there were no sponsors involved so you didn’t have to try too hard. Whatever the circumstances it’s one best in a while, loved it.
I love a relaxed, real vlog. It's refreshing.
This was fun to watch! We want to learn more about the history of the Jurassic coast, now. Very cool rock formations!
The rock formations are always my favorite part of outdoor vanlife vlogs!
I live a few miles away from St Ives in Cornwall. Yes - it’s hell in Summer, but go before 8am and it’s so quiet. It’s a joy just to wander around watching the business getting ready for the day. In that sense it seems almost Mediterranean.
So glad it was after all an easy fix for the van.
About "getting out of my way to get something and ending in bitter disappointment", I once drove 2 hours to the Orval Abbay to get some of their famous trappist beer, hard to find in any store, but once there I found out the bloody monks were sold out! I ended up with a loaf of "homemade bread" that was hard as a rock instead
Good to see you back home in such fine form Beans. I’ve never been to Dorset so you give me some ideas so maybe a weekend break.
Emma, you have got such a filthy laugh!
It's a lovely area of the UK! The sea air is so nice down there.. well worth a visit 🥰
You are the happiest person in the world when you laugh. Makes me happy as well. We went to Bournemouth in the hottest July days, not far from old Harry.
Yayy!! Lets all keep spreading happiness! 💛💛💛🥰
Great ice cream in Lulworth Cove 😋🍦
Awesome! Loved the local wildlife and the knob less cheese! 👏🏻😂
😂 thanks Mara!!
Hi Alex Emma.so pleased you got you van sorted at not to bad a price it’s the labour that cost the money,what a beautiful cost line the Dorset cost did you go fossil hunting lots down there 👇,you two always look so into each other so nice to watch and listen to you two ,tell me how long have you two been together and on the road in your camper van ,just love the views and scenery thank you ,did you visit Lyme Regis it a beautiful bay and beach with a smell mariner you can walk round the wall witch is a sea defences hope you find time to go there ,till next time take care keep safe live life, John 😂👏🌹🇬🇧👀🥂🥰🥇🥇
Its a shame you didn't visit Tyneham. Its a abandoned ghost village since the Second World War. Well worth visiting.
We were so sad we couldn't visit there as it sounds so interesting! But it was closed 😭 .. next time! 🤞
Love the area of Purbeck. Be sure to walk the coastal path to see Dancing Ledge and Winspit Quarry. Great video shame we missed the knob😂
Hilarious - another channel I am glad I found- came here from the Endless Adventure guys
Great stuff , Sherbourne and ham hill
Popular for walking ,boating and water activities....you for forgot the miles and miles of rock climbing! and on some routes you can even see the exposed fossils whilts hanging off your finger tips
beautiful trip thanks for sharing
I mean a zip tie ? Wow glad you guys had a good trip and are safe!
Loved this vlog, classic beans content not giving a shit how the companies getting free promotion will feel. Cheesy knobs and old men falling over classic! Also loved the UK beach description so true 😂
😂 Happy to be of service!
My locsl pub in Poole was called the Dorset Knob. It's since been turned inot a Co-op.
Another thoroughly enjoyable video guys. It was great to see you on the Morton motorhoming program the other day. X
Aw thank you! We were a little nervous about being on the show but glad we plucked up the courage and did it.. it was a fun experience 😊
What a great video Durdle door is amazing I go most years as always stay in weymouth on holiday.great job guys stay safe
Thanks so much Neal! 🙏 😊
Alex's comments about the Dorset Knobs had me laughing once again! You two are just too much! 😅. Even though Thailand is my favorite place, the UK is beautiful too!
Thailand is #1 on my bucketlist for travel. It seems so different than anywhere else in the world!
You guys are awesome 😍
Glad to see you make Cheesy Knob gags - the beans are back :)
😂
Glad to see you back on the road again 😁 Looks like Dorset/Devon etc are full to bursting!! Great vlog.....sorry about your lack of biscuits though!!🤣🤣
Thanks Linda! 💛
yep that's a peregrine 😍
Lol. I lived in Dorest so loads of beautiful areas. Enjoy
I knew that was what it would be with the gearbox, work for VW and we used to do them regular when these were the current model. We call them pickled onions because thats what the bush ball joints look like. Glad it was an easy fix
Maybe Durdle Door means more than just ‘drill’ from the olde English. If ‘door’ is a corruption of the ancient British/Welsh word ‘dwr’ which means water it would be a hole drilled by water🤔. There are many names in Dorset derived from olde English and I found some older text from Victorian times, concerning Celtic words and meanings that suggest the name Dorset is derived from the Dwr Sett or place of the Water people, in much the same way as we say that the country set are the people that live in the country.. The pre Roman name for Dorchester in Dorset is Caer Dwr, Caer meaning ‘fortified settlement’, Caer still being in common use in Wales. The ancient people of Dorset were also known as the Durotiges.
You two are very entertaining
I had to laugh at the blue cheese bit. As a kid I remember my Grandfather loved blue cheese and used to have some every day. Most of my time spent with him and Nanna was camping with them in their little 12 foot caravan. Yep that blue cheese definitely used to smell the van out. I always teased him that it smelt like rotten socks.
It looks like a lovely bit of the countryside. One day when we can go overseas again, and get safely back into Australia, hopefully hubby and I can get to see it ourselves.
Should’ve visited Lyme Regis instead and Arne. Maybe a boat ride to Brownsea Island. Lulworth and Durdle Door are overrated. Pop into the Ship Inn, Wool, we will feed and refresh you. PS, love your channel. Alex….you and my partner have the same eating habits….Emma….love your enthusiasm for life xx
I see you get the old fella falling over on the beach!! Very nicely done Alex! and Talking of world famous you came to my home town and had the WORLD FAMOUS ellys pork pie! because i would agree tastes like the contents of a hamster cage! We are Emma & Steve on our channel and we love yours!!
Haha oh don't remind Al of that pork pie.. he'll be off on another rant 😂
Thanks guys 🙏
Emma’s laugh 🤣🤣🤣
Gorgeous coastline!!! ❤ Pity about missing out on cheesy nobs though 😆
Gutted! Next time.. 🤞😂
Highly recommend Wales. The green bridge in Pembrokeshire is quite similar to this. Also a very curious seal is living near Worm's Head (Rhossili Bay) at the moment.
We LOVE LOVE LOVE Wales! We've only been on a short trip to Pembrokeshire so would love to visit again.. and the curious seal sounds like a new friend we didn't know we needed! 🤩💛
You are Both Stellar people
Aw 🥰
Watching this I was wondering how early you got there. Amazing the difference a couple of hours and a bit of inclement weather makes! I noticed you passing the massive queues as you drove from Corfe to Studland. You missed the best beach too at Shell Bay. Other places you may have missed… Spread Eagle Hill is worth a stop if you’re driving through Dorset.
We arrived just after 8am.. perhaps around 8.15
We spent about an hour at Durdle door before walking across to Lulworth cove.
Thanks for the recommendations for our next trip down that way! Very useful! 👍
Another great video, always loved Lulthworth Cove as a kid…..something I miss now living in Australia.
Thanks Laura! Hope you can make it back to visit again sometime 😊
@@TravelBeans you guys are awesome, stuck in bed with the flu so have been watching your channel to keep my spirits up 😊
Nice one Beans :-)
