I stayed here last weekend. Met Chris and his dog Cooper. What a top guy he is. Had some lovely chats with him and he was so kind and funny playing with my children winding them up a bit. Haha!
I’ve got the self inflating 5cm mattress for our kids. They never complain in the pop top. I can pop the pop top down without deflating the mattress. One of my best buys since owning my van.
Another great video Colin. Great to see you never removed the bit about your torch and phone. Sort of thing I forget, and then be to afraid to admit to!! 😅
I have watched everyone of your videos and you keep on making me like you. I go to the Lakes many times a year and this time one of my regular haunts, The Queens Head, and mention of one of my favourite beers too, Loweswater Gold!
Hi Colin I've enjoyed your videos keep it up I've camped for 50 years more try go out doors for a wind stopper for cooking I got one it stores easyly happy camping hope to bump in to you one day camping you have a lovely family great stuff
Great vlog as always Colin, I’ve binged all your vlogs and it’s been a great help to me as a novice campervan owner. Out of all the many camper vlogs out there, your channel is my go to channel, you are a natural presenter and I could even see you on a tv show! I look forward to your upcoming productions , keep it coming mate 🤘
I tried one of those thin mattresses but it was useless for me. I e just bought an Outdoor Revolution Camo Star King one....made for our vans. 100cms thick and 112cms wide, same as our beds. It's damn nice.
Great vlog Colin Paul and yourself are hardcore. I stayed on that site donkeys years ago camping and took the mountain bike to Grizedale we lasted a hour went to the pub instead good old days.Give it a go again pal.
Great site again - the Lakes is lovely and you’re right it’s all ups and downs with very little flat! Have a great bank holiday weekend - all the best, David & Rachel 👍
Great video Colin, I hope you have patent pending on ‘Colin’s Bombay beer buffer’ design every campers must have for their fridge! Made me chuckle you going back to your van twice, it’s something I’d do 😂 All the best 👍👍
Hi Colin, a new subscriber as I take ownership of my dream on Wednesday. Great video and as a cyclist and photographer really enjoyed your video, I done the Fred Whitton Challenge a few years ago , that's a beast of a sportive. 🙂👍
Hi Colin great meeting you last week just to let you know they laid a new path to the village after you left, apparently there was a chap who kept forgetting things that much he wore the path out. Cheers Chris.
Been to Hawkshead hall several times and love it there. watched a fair few of your videos now, and noticed your folding camping table, do you know what make it is?
Great vlog Colin ! Defo deserved a few beers after that bike ride .what camping table do you have as we’re looking for one and the one your using looks exactly what we are after ? Tia …
Thanks so much Irene.... I loved the surf board table but it didn't fit with the rest of the look of the van so I changed it... I still have it though and have another use for it in a future video ;) 😊
@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures good morning Colin, that’s the last time I watch your video before bedtime! I dreamt that you cleaned my van and charged £8.50 - I looked this morning and it’s still dirty! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 you and your family (and Branston) have a great weekend! 💕🐾
Col, Why did you use a gas single cooker (flames blow out) and not your induction hob??? Also, Amazon do the push-button shower holders. Ok, £13 but a game-changer.
Ages ago we bought LOADS of the gas canisters for those burners so it's kind of my Yorkshire man saying "use them they cost you money" 😂😂! I'll be using the induction hob too (mainly) once the burners run out of gas ;) Thanks for the message re: the shower push button thing, absolute legend!
@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures No probs matey. Those shower push buttons do my head in……top top…attach a cord and hang shower gel off. Makes you remember to remove it or some other bugger gets it!!!!

Hi Colin, we use the hard plastic box the gas stove sits in standing upright and it keeps the wind out 🙌 your welcome 😊
Another great video Colin. Great to see you never removed the bit about your torch and phone. Sort of thing I forget, and then be to afraid to admit to!! 😅
Good to see somebody use a Kiravan’s swivel seat without whingeing how hard it is! Great video as always 😊
Haha I have my moments, but it's totally user error... 😂😂

Great vlog Colin. I use the case of the gas stove opened and put on its end around the stove, to stop the wind blowing the flames out 👍🏻🍻
You always stay at the loveliest sites 👍🏻
Hi Colin I've enjoyed your videos keep it up I've camped for 50 years more try go out doors for a wind stopper for cooking I got one it stores easyly happy camping hope to bump in to you one day camping you have a lovely family great stuff

Love your videos, the campsite tour and joining you on your bike ride the scenery was amazing, and agree about the hot water bottle can’t beat it 👋👋
Wow Colin epic one again and brutal ride 👍🏻👍🏻

Can't beat the Lakes, we're lucky to have it so close. So so many fab sites to chose from. Love watching your reviews and the outtakes lol! 😂😂😂

We all had a good laugh this week Col, great episode 👍🏻

Have a great bank holiday weekend - all the best, David & Rachel 👍
Great video Colin. Have to get that campsite on our to visit list. Love the weekly videos 👍👍
Thanks for your video. We often cook outside when on EHU and use a cheap IKEA induction hob - no probs with wind!
Love your videos Colin!
Hope you're well Colin hope to see you on another vw show this year. Our first one is next week at Vanwest at Taunton racecourse in Somerset. 😊👍
Another great looking campsite in a brilliant spot. You certainly earned the beers after your epic cycle ride 👍
Looks like a great trip! We will have to get back out for a ride some time?
Mint vid, great bike, brill outtakes!😂😂❤️🏁🏁
Great video Colin, I hope you have patent pending on ‘Colin’s Bombay beer buffer’ design every campers must have for their fridge!

Hey buddy, its just a high gear one from Go Outdoors mate, we bought it ages ago but I still think they do them for around £30 ish

Haha im 100% an over the line chap with my pot noodles 🤣🤣
Really should pay more attention to comments just noticed your reply to Irene 😬
You changed the top of your swivel seat table
Yeah, it matches the rest of the van now! I have plans for the other one though :)
As always great video - but happened to the little surfboard table? 💕🐾
