  • In this video we make our final visit of the season to one of our favourite sites - The Camping & Caravanning Club site at Hayfield in Derbyshire. Surrounded by woodland, and with a backdrop of fantastic Peak District hills, this site is a pleasure to visit at any time of year, but an Autumn visit is pretty much an annual fixture for us.
    Many thanks for watching!

    Ey up.
    This is exactly why I want a camper van *for those times when you just want to chill. 👍🙂

      Ey up! Yes, great for chilled weekends... and more energetic adventures! 😁 Thanks for watching & catch you soon👍

    Weather that forces a little to adapt. Traveling by campervan changes the pace, we often discover that inactivity is not unpleasant and that a less grey sky quickly becomes very encouraging. 👍

      That is very true! When you are out camping, you appreciate the little windows of fine weather on changeable days! 😁 Luckily Saturday was a beautiful day for a walk in the woods anyway! Many thanks for watching & see you soon👍😊

      Hi Ceri & Kat! The leaves were just starting to turn. In another week it will be even more amazing. The funghi were out in force though! Loved the purple one....I was thinking they were Amethyst Deceiver, but I'm not too hot on mushrooms!
      All the best & take care👍😊

    Loved seeing all the campervans lined up there. Thank goodness the rain stopped enough for ya'll to get out and walk around. Cheers. The pub looked nice and so did your meal. Love your flip skillet. You got several nice walks in; even though the weekend started off really wet. Never seen purple mushrooms before. Nice.

    • @DesGreene
      @DesGreene  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi there! It is a lovely little site. But the access road is very tight, so best for fairly small vans and tents. I think nearly every van uses one of those flip skillets! 😁 They save an awful lot of splashes from your sausages! 😁 I loved the purple mushrooms too. Don't think I'd seen them before!
      All the best and see you soon👍😊

      Hi folks! Yes, the weather turned out better than expected, so we were able to get out for a few short walks etc. It's nice that this site is within easy walking distance to the village, but still has loads of options for longer walks in the hills. Just wish it stayed open over winter! 😁 All the best and see you soon👍

Loved the rolling green hills there and also that walk in the woods you did where there seemed to be so many mushrooms was also great to see. That church was beautiful and you had some nice visits to pubs too! Really enjoyed this, thanks for sharing :) ~ Anna 👍
