    Hi Helen and Dave a great video as ever and what a lovely area I remember driving past kessingland when we went to Southwold we are hopefully coming down next year so definitely going to pay a visit the beach looks amazing such lovely sand and everywhere looks so clean the site as well looks lovely and spotlessly clean!
    Hopefully next time you will fall lucky for the waterfront it looks a great spot! Well done Dave on the cooking it looked great hope you had a few ghost ships to enjoy with it! All the best to you both Daniel

    We had 3 nights here on the beachside in our campervan in March. It was lovely and quiet. The sun shone and we sat outside the van. Our dog loves the beach. There is a bus service that goes to Lowestoft and Southwold. Also to Norwich - we went as far as Beecles. Nowhere tempting to eat nearby so we took some lovely food instead

    Hi both, well blimey that took me back in time. I was the village Bobby ( Heartbeat) at Kessingland in the late seventies. The old Police House still exists but as a private dwelling. I’ve not been back there for over 40 years so your VLOG has made me consider a trip in the Caravan next year 😂. Safe adventures and all the best to you both.

      Well, well, well, what have we got here then? An old nostalgic copper? They sound like the good old days. Never saw sight nor sound of a Bobby and we would love to see more of the old village Bobby’s. You should give it a go, people say it’s not changed in donkey’s. Nice little site, lovely sea views and a short walk to the pub. Thanks for watching. Helen & Dave 👍

    Hi Dave and Helen. It's been many years since we were at Kessingland, and it doesn't seem to have changed much.

    Have you ever stayed at Jaydene or at The Hollies, both on the A12 in Kessingland? I lived in Pakefield for 20 years so I know the area well. You brought back lots of memories. My daughter had a weekend job as a waitress at The Waterfront and I walked my golden retriever, Sadie, many a time along Kessingland beach when I picked her up from work. Shame about the frosty reception! We lived near Pakefield Cliffs and we could hear the waves on the beach at night, also, the foghorn some nights. Strangely soothing. I certainly miss living next to the sea.

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi Carole, our eldest son lives at Pakefield also right by the beach and we lived by the beach in Caister On Sea and in the 79’s those fog horns would blast out regularly and get what you mean about the soothing sound. We haven’t stayed at Jaydene but passed it lots, it looks nice. Don’t know The Hollies, will investigate further. Take care, Helen & Dave 👍

    Although it's a great site and handy for Lowestoft and Yarmouth, the entrance and village are so tight it's crazy to get into. On our departure, (around 11:30 ish) we were met by lined-up caravans waiting to get onto the site, Little did they know that the site didn't open for arrivals till 1 pm, so a lot of frustrated drivers and queues making it an ordeal for us to get out . That kinda spoiled our visit there and we haven't been back since. You can walk along the beach to Lowestoft but when we visited (just post-Covid) it was hot and the pebbles were making it a slog, instead of a nice leisurely stroll. From our pitch we could hear the music from the pub, and it didn't stop till 10 pm, too late for some younger kids on site.
    Although you paint a very different picture on your vlog, ours was not a successful staycation overall. On quieter days I could imagine it would be a totally different experience, Ours wasn't, as it was very busy and the village was bustling with visitors.

      Hello, thanks for watching and sharing your experience, we can imagine your scenario and the roads are narrow just before you arrive, we had to negotiate a parked van on double yellows.
