- We wake up from our stealth camp in Criccieth and head into Pwllheli to buy some charging cables.
Breakfast is at Pwllheli Marina and then we head for Abersoch beach for a walk before a takeaway lunch from The Creel fish and chip shop.
We relocate to Porth Neigwl for the afternoon and decide to stay the night.

So can I. It’s a great Chippy. 👍🏴💖🇬🇧
Also, the Chippy in Pwllheli at the bottom end of the car park is really good 👍. Buy them and drive too the sea front on the right hand side!!!!! There’s no we’re better too eat fish and chips!!!!!!!!!
But, if your ever in the Yorkshire dales. Then there’s a Chippy just opposite the car park. The Petrol station has a spar??? Honest to God, they are the best Fish and chips!!!!!
We caravanned near the football ground. I went too get them!!! I still have too say, they are the best, for ages!!!!
The last year I had mum, on Mothers Day, all she wanted, was the fish and chips from Settle??!! Mum was Happy 😃, which was made me Happy. I didn’t have her around much longer🥲🥲
But, she did get her fish and Chips. Come on, they are really good. But, the only time (and I mean only time), mum put the rubbish away in the big ( can I take this opportunity, to say big bins ).
She dropped a £38.00 pound of gloves in the bin!!!! They were some really nice gloves!!!! Mum didn’t usually take the rubbish away!! I packed it all up, then let it go!!!! That was literally the one and only time mum went to a bottle a bottle at the recital Center!!!!!! Your all getting a Ticket tonight. ( done and dusted).
Lovely looking piece of fish that.
It was very tasty Bobby 😋👍
It did look lovely the fish and chips..could eat some now 😊
😁👍
I cycled a lot of the Llyn Peninsula last week. Based in a rented house in Nefyn. We sailed at Abersoch, sea kayaked at various places, and cycled for miles. The coastal areas were busy, difficult to quickly get food. Queues everywhere.
We were lucky the weather hadn’t got too hot while we there so it wasn’t so busy everywhere. Sounds like you had a great time with all the activities 🙂
Wow how peaceful your nights stay was on the car park..that fish and chip tea was the bees knees to 😀 ..i find your vlogs so chilled and relaxing I let myself wonder and imagine us in our motor home one day out and about doing the coast line 😀😀
Thanks nidge. Glad you like them ☺️
Love how you blend the drone in with regular camera. We get to see a lot more of great scenery that way. It did remind me of Hitchcock with all the crows around.
Thanks Larry. We like how the drone adds context to where we are 🙂
Watchya Ken x Carol Lovely vlog again 👏👍 To be honest before watching vid, I drooled at the still picture thumbnail for 5 mins 😂😂😜 #foodofthegods LOL Hugs x 👊👍🚐 Stephen….
😂😂😂 We know you love your fish and chips, Stephen. You’ll be licking the screen next lol😁 Stay safe. Not long now to your next adventure with Christine 👍😀🚐❤️
Love the drives along the roads it almost feels like I’m in the van with you. The fish and chips looked delicious 👋👋
Thanks Susan. Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Nice video as always nice fish & chips .
Thanks Robert 🙂👍
Another lovely video really look forward to them thank you
Thanks Raymond. Glad you like them🙂
Thanks for sharing - you are in Jane’s favourite part of Wales we are hoping you go to her childhood place in aberdaron next …. Sone great park ups and the little red van has the capability to stealth camp so easily …. Great drone footage
Thanks Stew. Jane will probably like the next episode 😉😀👍
We don't have a motorhome, but we cannot stop watching your channel. Yout choice of music is wonderful. In particular 'Ballerina' as seen in your latest video at the very end. I cannot stop listening to this absolutely beautiful piece. Thank you
Thanks so much for watching Graham and your lovely comment 🙂
Gentle winds, rippled ocean, peaceful coastline, enjoy the stay by the hills, green meadow, and the sea.
Glad you enjoyed it 🙂👍
I want some fish & chips now 😂👍
Been following you both all through North Wales as I live in Denbigh, loved how you've both captured and enjoyed our beautiful scenic countryside. Hope you enjoyed it.
We had a great time and are looking forward to going back to continue the journey one day 😊
I so need a little bit of this life style, so serene & lovely, Some of those fish & chips would go down nicely to. 👍😁🐡🍟🍺
Yes indeed. We thoroughly recommend it 👍😁
This takes me back, I used to go to Abersoch as a child. I'm now 38 and not been since about 1994 so my recolletions are vague but it all looks recognisable in this video
Glad we could bring back some childhood memories for you ❤️
@@LifeistooshortCK Thank you ❤️
That fish and chips looked proper lush made my mouth water
It certainly was 😋
We stayed near Abersoch in late May/early June - so I think just before you! We also had fish and chips from that chippy in Abersoch and ate them on the beach. We agree - they were delicious! Another great video as always. 😀
Haha, yes we were there mid June. Those fish and chips were great 👍 Thanks for watching 😀
Dear Carol and Ken, I enjoyed this as much as you enjoyed your fish and chips👍😉 have a good weekend
Thanks Anita, you too 😀
@@LifeistooshortCK thank you
Least we're not the only ones with technical issues. Places we've never been to. Still prefer winter beaches though, they're nice and empty. Beautiful scenery. Going to make a note of the places for when we get back to Wales.
We know what you mean. Much nicer out of season without the crowds and easier to get parking spaces 🙂
Abersoch is too peopley for me too…..fish and chips, then off to somewhere amazing. Another great vid, love the drone shots.
The car park there got really busy so it was good to get away after we had eaten our fish and chips of course 😊
Fish n chips with curry sauce, oh yes 👍, Enjoyed sharing your day out and I loved the drone footage again! Take care, Sue.
Thanks Sue, it was great having you along 😁 Thanks for watching 👍
Nice video Ken thanks for making it. 🇬🇧👍
Thanks for watching Dave 🙂
Very nice vlog. Drone shots are awesome. We’ve been caught out sleeping on the tilt too🤣. Amazing the difference it makes isn’t it? Beautiful scenery. Can’t wait to explore North Wales. E🧙♂️
Thanks Ellie and Graham, glad you enjoyed it. Hope you can get up to North Wales soon 🙂
@@LifeistooshortCK 👍😀
You always seem to score on the fish and chips.
We have had a few duds in the past but generally they are very good 😀😋👍
Hi guys the fish looked amazing loved the sharks head outside the chip shop another great video we off to Dorset next wed in the camper looking foward to filming some new vids all the best donny
Thanks Donny. Have a great trip to Dorset. Safe travels 😀
Love the Llyn. I thought your video captured it beautifully.
Thanks Alan. Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
We hate sleeping on slope, no matter how slight. So my husband always uses a small ball on the van kitchen unit to see if we r level. Works a treat, be it a bit annoying when it's got to be just so!we would have to keep moving till the ball kept still!!! Our young daughter used to say 'oh no not the ball'!
We were like that with the caravan and used a marble on the worktop! Unfortunately we can’t really get the levellers out if we are stealth camping by the side of the road 😁
Fish and chips look fantastic, must admit l always regret having them after, have that greasy, queasy feeling.
Sorry to hear that David but they do taste good 😋
@@LifeistooshortCK Yes don’t get me wrong l love them, is just after.
Ps congrats on 10k subscribers, always fantastic viewing.
Thanks @@davidc4988
depends what they are cooked in maybe? some chip shops arent so quick to change the fat/oil with fresh.
Hi Carole and Ken - love your videos - sorry for putting this. Here - but couldn’t work out how to do differently! I remember that Carole made your own insect nets with magnets - but cant find the relevant video. Grateful if you could le me know where you purchased the net and any tips for how to make up. It is for the back of our camper van - many thanks Michele
Hi Michele. We bought the midge netting online from www.totallyherby.com and just cut to size and fixed with magnets. There is a link to the magnets we use in our Amazon storefront in the description of the video. I can send you a photo of what it looks like by email if you would like to contact us lifeistooshortwildcamper@gmail.com
Wonderful as always, thank you, Jack.
Cheers Jack 👍🙂
The fish n chips are absolutely delish. I enjoyed them on many many occasions during my visits to Scotland. I always cleaned my plate 😋. Here in Wisconsin we have what is called Friday fish fry. Next time I go into town for one I’ll take a pic n send to you. Happy travels
Thanks Marie. We look forward to that 👍 Enjoy your fish fry 😀
Great vlog, very professional drone footage and editing. Real pros now keep it up.😁
Thanks Mick 🙂👍
Another great video ken.just brilliant really enjoying your tour.just one thing I know carol does still photography it would be nice to see them at the end
Thanks Dave. We keep meaning to include some of Carol’s photos and probably will in future videos 🙂👍
Great vlog, my husband retired yesterday and were off on our travels to Wales in September, hopefully it wont be so busy then. I've written a little list of places the little Red campers been visiting x
Congratulations on retirement. Enjoy your trip 😁👍
Great vlog Ken and Carol. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching 🙂👍
Another informative and enjoyable vlog Ken. You are showing me places I have never been to in my own backyard. All now in the grey matter for future rides out, thanks. Keep them coming. Andy.
Thanks Andy, will do 🙂👍
Stunning scenery looks so peaceful, stay safe both of you. x
Thanks Linda 🙂
@@LifeistooshortCK you two are brillian🥰👍
@@mattlawton4715 thank you 😊
Ahoy Pirates! .) Thanks for sharing this with us, hats off for the tremendous effort from both of you! Bear hugs, Captain of the good old Blackthorne
Thanks Captain Kata. Stay safe out there on the old Blackthorne 😀👍
Very enjoyable video again you two. You do find some lovely places to see and stay at. Always a joy to watch
All the best from Mal, Dave and Sally the Lab aka The SilvertopMotorhomers x
Thanks Mal and Dave. It is such a joy to be free to explore and find these places. Best wishes to you and of course Sally 😀
What a relaxing day. Lovely music and scenery. Great filming. I didn’t get to Abersoch but did visit Aberdaron a little further along. Very pretty little place. There is a National Trust car park there next to the beach that I used, so free as a member.
Thanks for watching Michelle. There were lots of beaches we had to miss out on. Not enough time to visit them all 😊
enjoy the outing it was great food yummy 😋
fantastic views.
stay safe and enjoy the rest of your day.
Thanks Moira. Have a great weekend 🙂
I see why you live traveling this way, the scenery is breathtaking, the food looks delicious! We are getting our first pull behind camper tomorrow. Let the good times begin! Mary
Great news Mary. Soon you can be on the road. Safe travels, have a lovely time 😀
just curious what is a pull behind camper? Obviously it doesnt have an engine.
@@mariataif you are correct. We will pull it with our Ford truck using a ball hitch.
Hello both! New subscriber here, I’m really enjoying you’re vlogs, I find them relaxing in what can sometimes be a crazy world! Don’t take this the wrong way, but I enjoy watching them before I go to bed, it’s a nice way to clear the mind and just look at lovely views! Although the fish n chips have made me hungry 😂 They looked fabulous! We used to holiday in Abersoch when I was a child, brought back lovely childhood memories, my late dad used to walk down to the beach with our rubber dinghy on his back & we would think it hilarious that he looked like a tortoise 😂 happy, carefree days! Thank you for the memories and keep being wonderful 😘 x
Thanks for your lovely comment and welcome to our channel. We had a chuckle about your dad looking like a tortoise. What great memories to have. We are happy to help you relax at the end of the day ☺️
Wales just keeps on giving. Amazing landscapes lovely beechs and great camera work by you guys.
Thanks Thomas. There was so much amazing scenery and we didn’t have time to visit all the lovely beaches 😀
Lovely easy living, so nice
Thanks Matthew 🙂
Sometimes nothing else hits the spot like fish 'n chips 🍟 🐟 🐠 mmmmm
👍🐟🍟😋😁
As always a really nice enjoyable video. Cheers 🍷🍺
Cheers Chris. Glad you enjoyed it 🙂👍
good vid on your travels stay safe lee
Thanks Lee, will do 😀👍
Yummy fish & chips! The location you stayed at looked perfect 👌
We were lucky it was nice and quiet at that park up the night we were there.
I hope the two of you are vaccinated. The Delta variant really has me on edge. I get nervous when I hear you saying you're not feeling well. Stay safe and well.
We are 👍
Very nice carol and Ken 👍
I am subscribed to you with notifications turned on and blow me down there are two videos I have not seen. I will be watching them soon 👍. Hope you are well.
If you are still touring Wales can I recommend borth,aberystwyth,aberaeron,newquay for west Wales and tenby area for the south I promise you won't be disappointed 💯🙂otherwise enjoy where you go
Thanks Leon we have made a note of your tips for when we visit those areas 👍🙂
Hate to ask this, and sure you may have covered off in earlier vlogs. How do yo manage for the toilets? So you have a portaloo? Love the vlogs, just binge watching:)
Have a look at our van review video which explains that 👍
Beautiful.
👍🙂
Eating out on holiday appears to be a general problem, we had a similar problem on holiday last week, a combination of more people staying in the UK and a lack of staff in the hospitality sector. 🧶🌈🍓
I think some restaurants and hotels are struggling to find staff and probably have a lot staying at home because they have been "pinged" by track and trace.
@@LifeistooshortCK I also read that, due to lack of public transport in rural areas, youngsters can’t take up holiday/Saturday jobs unless they can drive. 🧶🌈🍓
I have the same non-slip tray:-) Fish and chips look delicious.
Those trays are good and so was the fish and chips 😊
@@LifeistooshortCK :-) I love fish and chips too. My friend loves your channel and recommended it too me.
My husband and I won’t be able to retire , so we love that we can tour and camp “with you”, and it doesn’t cost us a cent !😂❤️Thank you for the beautiful videos! What are your ages ?
I am 62 but as for Carol I couldn’t possibly say 😁👍
A group of Ravens is called an Unkindness.
A group of Crows is called a Murder.
A group of Owls is called a Parliament.
A group of politicians is called an incompetence.
What do you get if you cross a sheep with a kangaroo ? A wooly jumper.
Boom boom.
I'll be here until Tuesday. You should try the veal. It's vealy good.
and a clattering of jackdaws 😀👍
@@LifeistooshortCK But a gathering of humans is banned.
Another lovely film - thanks. Just a quick question, do you use an app to tell you when and where you can / can’t fly your drone?
I know that common sense would normally apply but I will be looking to get myself a drone next year too but would never want to fall foul of what can be important guidance.
Thanks Nick. There are two apps I like.
First is Drone Assist by Altitude Angel.
Second is UAV Forecast by Matthew Lloyd
Both apps are good but Drone Assist seems to have more warnings. Be aware they both need an internet connection to work so it pays to check before you arrive.
@@LifeistooshortCK That’s great… just what I needed.
Another great vlog. Do you take the drone shot and then choose the music, or do you think that will be a lovely piece of music to accompany a video of waves. Regards AJ
Thanks AJ. The drone shots are taken and edited and then a suitable track of music is found to convey the right emotion for the shot.
Looks .ike they need a visit from Worzel Gummage round there with all they blinkin' crows 😬 Porth Neigwl sounds like Welsh for somewhere for me to moor my boat. If I had a boat that is. I'd take the Llyn peninsula over the likes of Blackpool or Southend any day and fish and chips in Abersoch would be an added bonus. I thought your drone was going to crash that chimney for a minute. Do they they have sensors built in to stop that sort of thing happening? I must say you both look well on the nomadic life. As per usual I got the "ping" for this one when I picked up my tablet from the bedside table for my bedtime 30 mins read. Couldn't open the kindle app until I had seen what you two had been up to could I?
Thanks Nigel, we appreciate your dedication 😁 We’re with you on preferring the more remote places, so nice to be away from all the traffic. The drone does have sensors if you are flying directly towards an obstacle it would try and avoid it. Maybe you’ll get that boat one day 😉
@@LifeistooshortCK I reckon I'd rather have a campervan. 👍
that's a lot of crows! the most i get in my garden is 4
👍
If you have not passed by now, a visit to the old granite mining village of Nant Gwythern is worth the time. It is now the Welsh language school and has much to see.
Thanks for the info Dave. I have looked at it on Google Maps and it looks like an interesting place. I have made a note as it would be good to see next time we are in that area 👍🙂
@@LifeistooshortCK I should have added, a very nice cafe. It’s a place we go to for a day out.
Could you please tell me what drone you have. I’d like one for our holidays too :)
DJI Mavic mini 2 👍
Hi another great vlog guys thanks. Ken could i ask what editing program you us
Thanks Alan. I have just started using Final Cut Pro on a MacBook Air M1. Uptil now it was LumaFusion on an iPad.
@@LifeistooshortCK thanks ken is there any reason you us Mac
@@alanmerchant1815 I have a long history with both Windows and Mac. I love iPad more than anything else but I need a little more capability for my editing and so made the switch.
Please Carol could you cook some of your wonderful meals? These takeaways are very naughty.
Sometimes the chef has to take a break 😂
Perhaps someone could develop a self levelling bed for camper vans 😀
Now that’s a great idea. We would definitely buy one of those 😀👍
Lovely video as always. How long are you guys away ?
Thanks Michael. This trip was 24 nights in total.
