Well, I'm glad you explained about the elastic bands for the toilet. At first I wondered whether you were given them to use if the toilets were all busy. It brought tears to my eyes just thinking about it!
We used our own facilities all the time so never really needed to use the bands.
You guys get everywhere.
Love your little dog to.
Great video guys 😊 my dad lives just down the road in New Ollerton.. all his family live there and areas close by. My sisters and I have very fond memories of the area.. we used to walk from Ollerton to clumber park and Sherwood Forest on many occasions. 💕
Thanks for watching, we enjoyed it there.
Did I hear you mention that there’s a lock up for bikes or did I miss hear 🤔 x
These videos are very good and informative, I go passed the entrance every other week and wondered what was through the archway. We will have to visit this place, didn't realise how big the place is.
Thanks
Nice to be seeing you on my turf. Castle Rising and Castle Acre and well known to me. I do hope you have a great trip. I shall be looking forward to watching these vlogs.
I’m finding your videos very informative, we are considering buying a van so all your information is very helpful, thank you
Bob and Jenny,
Thank you for making the correct decision not to come to Ireland during the epidemic. Unfortunately many campers have decided to flaunt quarantine rules. Hope next year you will be able to enjoy our scenery and more importantly our hospitality both Northern and Rep. Of Ireland. Looking forward to your travel vlog of your trip.
Love your channel BTW.
Don
Tough but honest reality , vast majority have Bob and Jen's common sense
Nice review guys I shall be visiting this site ..iv booked 5 nights and callow top over Easter so I'm looking forward to that 😊
Sounds good.
Hi Bob, nice site at Clumber only just down the road from where we live, thank you for showing us around the site. Lovely walks through the forest. Agree the loos need a face lift. Enjoy Sandringham. X
Thanks, yes enjoying Sandringham at the moment.
Thank you so much. I really didn't know there was a Sherwood Forest. I expect Robin Hood and his merry men to pop out any minute. That is so cool. What a beautiful place.
Yes it is, well worth a visit, not sure about Robin Wood, but there is most definitely a Sherwood Forest!
Our favourite site this Bob. Zero phone signal, zero internet.
Not great for uploading TH-cam videos though. Great to get off the social network for a while.
Absolutely, kids not so keen for the first hour, then the ipads go down and then their off exploring.
Looks a fab site Bob, it's a pitty about the loos/showers being abit dated but we all can use our on board facilities if needed, looking forward to sharing this tour with you both, have a great time and take care.
Bob and Jenny.
Firstly thank you for not making your planned trip to Ireland during this pandemic. Unfortunately many campers have decided to disregard the quarantine regulations. Hope your plans for next year will bear fruit and you can enjoy the scenery and more importantly the friendly hospitality you will receive both in Northern and the Rep. Of Ireland. Looking forward to the Irish travel vlog.
Love your channel.
Don
Thank you, we hope to make it over there next year, looking forward to it.
Brilliant site we went there for our very first caravan weekend break it was much smaller then.
Nice to see you comming to my part of the country. Norwich Cathedral is one of the best in UK. Only thing is no dogs. Hope you have a great time.
Thank you both for another interesting video, will stay at Clumber Park when we travel south again from the Isle of Man. Stay safe. Best wishes to you both xx
Norfolk is where I'm from. Holt is lovely as I'm sure you're aware. Enjoy your trip looking forward to watching x
Looking forward to watching 👍
Nice video Bob. This is a site we’ve been looking to stay at, looks lovely. Good tip about the cycle problem there. Thanks for sharing. 👍🚐
Our kind of site and great for dogs. Was just watching Poshcats latest and did walk was a postage stamp, bit of a cheek calling it a walk.
Hopefully the weather holds out. Great videos to look forward to
So far, so good.
Hi Bob ,Jenny and Poppy , we had a invite to do our hobby with a friend down Norfolk this w/e but the campsite was fully booked. Didn't want to do wild camping. Interesting to see how they closed the other one of in the shower block you would think a cubical be safe, when i go off i love not having internet or phone signal really refreshing:) you be suprised how so , i know you need it for videos etc stay safe have fun and enjoy freedom best wishes .
Yes, it was good to be off the social grid for a day!
Have you ever been to Long Sutton ? There is a church there with a wooden steeple. Use to live in Gedney just outside Long Sutton . There is also a old bridge as you leave Long Sutton towards Kings Lynn.
Can't say I have, we went over the Sutton Bridge though.
Fantastic 🙂 We're so glad you coming this way. Did think the Norfolk tour was was off but so pleased. Hope you guys have a great time and we can't wait for your views, experiences and footage on this tour whoop whoop 🙂🕺👍🏆
Thank you very much!
Thanks for the video we are travelling there tomorrow so it was nice to see what to expect
Looking forward to seeing Sandringham was there when it first reopened, my first trip it hardly stopped raining lol hope you have better weather stayed at c&c club site they were really friendly and helpful, hope you don't get a pitch under the pine trees, the cones made a really donk on the roof when they fall off the trees, made me jump at first in the middle of the night defo would stay there again though
Have a nice few days Bob and Jenny, safe travels
Not sure Poppy appreciated the site tour. We did. Looks like a great site with many trees. No internet, no problem. I'm all for it
Keep washing those hands
Never been to Clumber Park, looks nice, thanks for the tour.
Thanks for your reply Bob. Just googled earth. Sheringham seem to have a big car park next to the station. So Sheringham for us. PS we are at the Burr Valley rway on the 15th. nearer Wroxham. I think the best m might have been the Mid Norfolk - but it’s closed Enjoy your visit Steve and Harry
Not heard of that one, Bure Valley, looks interesting.
Bob Earnshaw Bure Valley( NR11 6BW ) is a narrow gauge running from Aylsham to Wroxham, I believe at Wroxham you can then get a good boat trip. Poppy might like it 😀👍
It’s not changed then, last time I was at Clumber a power cut took out the water, toilets, Elsan point basically everything if you remember.
lol. Yes, it's like that
except in theory you can use the toilets!
Rummikub is one of the most essential things in my baily haha great vidio bob
Liked the video. :) :)
Heard a lot about Clumber Park and it looks very nice. We noticed a lot more people leaving sites late this season and causing a bit of stress to new arrivals in the lanes approaching the sites. No internet sounds like a good idea. We struggled at Stover in Devon last week. 😃 Trev
Yes, I wish people would leave before the departure times and not arrive early either!
We’ve just come back from 2 nights at the Clumber Park site. I think all of the other entrances to Clumber Park have now been closed off. You can now only get in via Lime Tree Avenue from either the A614 or the B6034 from Carburton.
We are in your video, on our bikes leaving the site, towing a dog trailer, as you were entering!
We got no phone signal on either 3 or EE. National Trust was open but you had to book a day in advance to get in by car. We had no trouble getting in on our bikes though!
Thanks, I will have anither look for you there. We did enjoy Clumber Park, but don't think we could do too many days there, cutoff from a decent phone signal!
I think you need an electric scooter so you can get to the check in quickly when you’ve selected your pitch. It would also be handy to pop to the local shops for topping up on groceries and the local brew Abbott and Adnams 👍👍👍👍
Lol, yes, I keep watching those bike channels on about electric bikes. I'd have to get it passed by the Safety Coordinator...
You are coming to our "neck of the woods" Bob and Jenny. We live 5 miles from Sandringham.
Yes, 5 nights at Sandringham.
Great video as ever. As a tent user it's always interesting to see the toilet/shower blocks which I'm very greatful u always try and show on your travels. As you said it's looking dated, so sadly will be avoiding this site which is a shame as the setting looks lovely.
Thanks for that, I seem to get a fair bit of criticism for videoing the site facilities!
Whilst the facilities are a bit dated, I don’t think it’s that bad that you should avoid going.
Hi Bob & Jenny! Thanks for all the videos. Could you explain the differences between a hi line and low line Motorhome plea#e? We’re looking at an Autotrail Delaware. Thanks. Chris & Lisa.
The Autotrail Hi Lines have an overcab sleeping area, so are that bit higher.
@@BobEarnshawMoHo Thanks for that Bob, that's really helpful! Keep the videos coming please-they're fab.
Nice one at least the pitch bigger this time lol kev
Cracking video again 👍
I really like your videos and have subscribed. Have you ever been to Newquay, Cornwall? I'd like to see the sites down there.
Yes, but before we were filming. We stayed at a Caravan and Motorhome Club Site called Treamble Bay.
have you guys ever done the Scotland route 500 before? because we are worried about these certified campsites that have only like 20 or so pitches. Do you know if they are any good?
I've not done the NC500 in one go, but have been round it at different times. A Caravan and Motorhome Club Certified Campsite has only 5 pitches, I think you mean private sites. Have a look at my Highlands and Islands video. You could do the NC 500 using mainly club sites.

Clumber park is in Nottinghamshire
I know, did I say something different in the video? Probably... 😬
Good video again. I notice you didn’t take the car on the Tranquil tour but you’ve got it on this one??
Yes, we don't always take the car.
Hi you 3
We are visiting Norfolk from the 10 to the 19 th and are scheduled to visit the Poppy line on the 17 th . Do you know if it is best to park at Holt or Sheringham . Maybe our paths will cross ? Steve and Harry
We are going to the Holt end, so we can probably tell you about parking there when the video is out, likely to be Friday 11th.
Hi Bob,
Another random question,Do you like driving the Motorhome? I’ll watch the video now.😀
Congratulations on reaching 14k!
Yes, much prefer driving it to cars, I see over hedges and cars.
Bob Earnshaw
That’s interesting.
You channel has grown so much In the past few months!
Oh dear what is wrong with the UK, so many areas without a signal, we are in the year 2020
Hi Bob new to your channel and I have ordered a new swift kon-tiki sport 599 very similar to your Motorhome, can I ask what sort of MPG do you get and also what size TVs do you have and where the fitted by the dealer
I get 27.8 mpg on average. The TVs came from our previous motorhome, the brackets come with the motorhome. The one in the lounge is 21in and way too big. A 16 in like we have in the bedroom would suit me better.
Do you always take a car with you
No, we tend to take the car when we are staying longer at a site or if we need to explore narrow country lanes.
@@BobEarnshawMoHo it's what sometimes puts me off a motorhome. Currently have a static but want to get back to touring again. Motorhome caravan that's the issue
Those facilities look grim.
Not grim, but tired.
