I honestly think you've picked the perfect van for a couple touring the lanes of Britain - everything you need in a size that can easily go anywhere......and of an age where the purchase price would be sensible. Something I've noticed a lot over the years is how it's often the older campervans that really get used as they should be - and not spending most of the time parked on the drive! Enjoy your travels!
Hi Robert…You are so right! Yes, we love the size of our van, it’s perfect for us. We’re currently in it right now in North Wales (keep an eye on our channel for our Wales videos). Some of the driving we’ve done across the Snowdonia National Park we’d daren’t attempt in anything bigger/wider!
Love watching your "NATURAL", not "made for subscribers / likes" videos. Just a thought, as you use a lot of EHU at sites, have you thought of using a twin electric hotplate type thingy for cooking? (saves on gas !!! ). Keep the videos coming. Have you thought of doing a walk around van tour ? - i like being nosey. hahaha.
Hi there….thanks for your comment! Glad you’re enjoying our videos. That’s a great idea regarding electric hot plates, I guess the only problem we might have there is space in the van (for storage), but definitely worth thinking about! With regards to a van tour, yes that’s something we might do! We’ve just got back from a couple of weeks in Wales (stay tuned for some videos of that trip coming soon), but after that a “van tour” video is definitely on the cards! Nothing wrong with being nosey…we’re the same! 😉
We had caravans for 20 years, and soon realised that if you are paying for EHU, you might as well use the FREE electric, rather than gas. We also had electric fans and heaters too. Looking forward to the Wales and "van tour" videos.@@theealesadventures
Some great videos you've made guys. Have subscribed in support! We know how hard it is to make good content and get your TH-cam channel off the ground. Going through it ourselves. Keep up the good work!
Wow….thanks guys, this means a lot. We’ve just subscribed to your channel to as we like going on walks in picturesque settings. We look forward to watching your videos. Thanks again! 🙂
Hi…Thanks for the comment and we’re glad you’re enjoying our videos! Those thermal blinds/shades are great, aren’t they? Here’s the link where we bought them from: www.leisureoutlet.com/10680-nova-boxerducato-thermal-tailored-interior-blinds?gclid=CjwKCAjw2K6lBhBXEiwA5RjtCcFVow9NHM5TE3WF3PTlT0OlvaBJp4nvYztlNVdu_FnMmMR1tvEB9RoCCz8QAvD_BwE
My home county born and bred in Newquay, we used to go land's end it was free then, just the first and last pub and of course the sign post, but now it's very commercial, and I think ruined the raw beauty of Land's end, safe travels.
Hi…Thanks for comment. Yes, they have commercialised Land’s End a bit (very similar to The Needles/Allum Bay on the Isle Of Wight). We’re still glad we went though. You’re very lucky being born and brought up in such a beautiful county 🙂
Hello from Dublin 🍀🍀💚💚😺😺🍀🍀 I've just recently joined your channel. You are really showing the beautiful English countryside in your adventures. What type is your camper. ? And could you recommend a company in the UK that sell these. Or would you know of a company in Northern Ireland who are reputable ? Thanks again for sharing. ! Hugs 🍀
Hello!! Thank you so much for subscribing, we’re glad you’re enjoying our videos. Our camper, Basil, is an Autosleeper Symbol (2000 model, so getting on a bit). We bought him from JMT Leisure near Weston-Super-Mare. We know what we wanted so looked at fearless in an 80 mile radius from where we live to see if anything came up….and there he was 🙂 Not sure where is good in Northern Ireland, because we don’t live there. Perhaps have a think about what type/make of camper you’re after and then go from there. Good Luck! 👍🏻🙂
Thanks so much for getting back to me. It was really kind of you both. I will have a look at that company and you never know I might be go to England to visit friends and do some some camper searching. I would like to try camping in Ireland first and when I get brave I might try future afield. Hope your weather gets better for Devon and continues. Hugs 🍀🍀😺😺💚💚🍀🍀
We hope you find your perfect campervan….It truly is a lovely way to explore and travel (great for day trips too!). We’d love to take Basil to Ireland one day 🙂

Hi you two van-lifers, lovely videos thanks! Where did you get your thermal blinds/sun shades for the windscreen and side windows? Must get some.
