THIS SEASIDE TOWN HATES CAMPER VANS

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ก.ย. 2024
- A town in Cornwall has permanently banished camper vans and motor homes from parking over night on the seafront and other beauty spots. But have these restrictions just moved the van life community to the streets outside the million pound houses?

Don’t forget to subscribe for more videos about CORNWALL and Falmouth I sometimes visit St Ives Cornwall and Padstow Cornwall too. Come here for everything from travel recommendations to beach reviews such as Perranporth Beach Cornwall. I also LOVE EXPLORING Cornwall’s coast line and the South West Coastal Path. Thank you for watching and commenting and liking the video.
Here is the article these statements were taken from. It’s worth a read as there was no mention of littering or anything in the article
www.cornwalllive.com/news/cornwall-news/parking-falmouth-seafront-roads-overnight-8062795?int_source=amp_continue_reading&int_medium=amp&int_campaign=continue_reading_button#amp-readmore-target
I’m a Falmouth uni student who was born in Cornwall and living in a van now full time because student accommodation is 12 grand a year. It’s great when even the uni car park won’t let you park overnight in the Penryn car park which is open 5pm-9am for free anyway 🤦♀️
We're campervanners and live near Falmouth. Another friend with a van actually saw someone emtying the toilet cassette from their van on the verge at Maenporth Beach one evening last winter when they thought no-one else was watching. These are the people who give the rest of us a really bad name and are making wild camping very difficult in many places.
Hate those people who do that cause they ruin it for others and make us locals angry
Its an issue van lifers/ free campers face, i have seen a toilet emptied into a bin bag and put in a public bin,
Too many of us are not being responsible , and here we are with the backlash and restrictions,
There are no excuses for some of the entitled behaviour,
I hope it settles down,
Don't mean to be conspiratorial, but create the problem and then come up with the solution, like the plan demic.
@@charlesdeakins2546 I would argue that the large majority of free campers are very protective of their environments and do not display such behavior. But one spoiled egg ruins the entire cake!
Can't punish everyone for the actions of a few. els we would all be in prison because some one committed murder its discrimination to say a type of person isn't welcome against the law in this country yet we are banned because Weare explorers
Van lifers are governments worst nightmare, can’t control people who take their home with them. Unsurprising they’re going to make van life as difficult as possible now it’s gaining traction.
Luckily I have all the faith in my fellow free spirits to find creative solutions to still live how they want to live (peacefully and respectably obvs!) 💪
100% accurate ^^^
I am doing a video on the aversion and disapproval towards vanlifers. Your theory is an interesting one. I need to investigate that further. If you have any supporting sources... feel free to send them my way.
@@TheCampersChronicles bit of a rabbit hole and joining dots but look at the plans for 15 minute cities, LTN’s, ULEZ etc -they all add up to restricting the freedom of the majority of the population (the super rich seem to be exempt) -ultimately it makes us plebs easier to control if we’re herded to only where the authorities want us.
@@TheCampersChronicles hopefully you saw my reply before YT deleted it! Interesting that something so matter of fact would be deleted -Must be over the target huh 🤔
@@vickyb6588 no, unfortunately I did not see your reply. You must have been very naughty to get deleted! Now I am even more curious what you said!😂
If you pay Road Tax you are entitled to park on any public road...period !
It's unlawful to restrict parking area's or make drivers pay.
Anyone who disrespects by bad and dirty behaviour by leaving rubbish then that counts for penalties on their driving licences.
Most people who have campervans, cars or vans who park up are very clean and respectful.
So one shoe fits all remit by Councils are wrong and should be rectified.
Absolute rot! Who told you that? I write the following as a retired highway engineer of some forty years knowledge. The public highway exists to allow vehicles, animals and foot passengers to pass and repass - there is NO right to park. Indeed, if anything is placed on the public highway so as obstruct passing and repassing, it constitutes an obstruction and may be removed by the highway authority, regardless as to whether there are yellow lines, etc. or not.
@@christopherisherwood4967 You sounded very angry there & clearly don't understand the culture to which you're commenting on... The OP's point was if you own a vehicle, it's roadworthy (MOT), it's Taxed and insured, then that gives you the right to use on public roads at your leisure, for any purpose that you are legally allowed to do...and yes, that means PARK. As long as I'm not obstructing the highway, I could park my van in a spot on the public highway the day I get my MOT and could leave it there without moving it for the next 11 months and 28 days or so until it needs a new MOT. That is fact. Maybe I'm being a little pedantic there in response to your observation, but let's be realistic here, no Stealth Camper or Van Lifer in their right mind is going to want to park somewhere to bed down for the night where they are causing an obstruction, risking both an accident collision, or being woken and moved on.
The problem in the UK is a culture prblem compared to mainland Europe. We seem not to understand that parking and camping are very different things . The problem onthe whole is people parking up then getting chairs and tables etc outside that's camping not parking. This will need in more restrictions . Lao remember alot of these signs are not traffic roads accordance meaning they are worthless signs but it's scares off 90 percent of people . The last factor is people resentful that they own land and pay council tax etc then get the same view they have . It's all a culture issuie in UK with no solution
I'm in Galloway and we are struggling with the amount of vans coming here. I agree that it's not the majority that misbehave but there are enough to make us not too keen on them for example filling up car parks on the coast for days and leaving a mess behind them.
They’re really unpopular here in Scotland now because of the number of them, they ruin every view, white boxes everywhere, parked up in every small car park so then signs have to be put up. You can see the seafront because of motorhomes end to end now
It's the usual. The folk that have abused the system have f****d it up for everyone. Parking in stupid places, littering, dumping their toilet irresponsibly, etc. All campers get a bad name from these people.
The article that this was based on didn’t mention littering or anything just how the locals felt uncomfortable
www.cornwalllive.com/news/cornwall-news/parking-falmouth-seafront-roads-overnight-8062795?int_source=amp_continue_reading&int_medium=amp&int_campaign=continue_reading_button#amp-readmore-target
Local authorities have enough of our stolen money to provide decent Aires for all.
Yes and to be fair this used to be a secretive and niche hobby to be a stealth camper as it were, however the internet and Covid played a large part in enticing people out in campers in their droves, people who may even watch videos like yours on TH-cam. so with more footfall in Cornwall you’re boosting the economy on one hand but sometimes attracting those unsavoury characters who weren’t brought up properly and leave their trace, too reflective of society in general sadly 🫤
@MyStonefish oh yes I know this too well being from Devon! The A30 out there is still busy as we speak 😯 I wanted to try a bit of stealth camping myself when I could afford a campervan, but sadly now I don’t think I’ll bother as it’s too much hassle, everyone just gets treated as nuisances now it’s been put on the radar.
I Concur i caught a Scottish Man and Woman Pouring Sewage down a Drain that absolutely STANK for over 6 days … When i asked them to stop they told me to Fu*koff and mind my own Business , And its my Street , very Respectful…..
I think almost every seasode town in the UK in now very anti Campervan/Motorhomes. 😢
Starting to happen in Brittany. (I blame the Germans.)
I have a micro camper and live on the south coast. Even I get fed up with the massive RV's claiming multiple spaces in residential streets.
You are a brilliant vlogger showing such beautiful places and parking spots.
You are a great example of how to behave as an overnight van camper...clean, tidy, mannerable and respectful to all areas you visit. 100%.
Thank you so much 🙂
Quite honestly, many of these “No overnight parking/camping/sleeping “ notices are to discourage the travelling community, who have been known to cause councils a lot of trouble.
We have a motorhome, and these are our rules when “wild camping.”
Don’t park outside someone’s house.
Don’t join a large group of vans.
2 or 3 vans are good for security.
Don’t stay more than 1 or 2 nights in any place.
Have a spare toilet cassette, in case you can’t find a public toilet to empty your cassette.
Don’t use chemicals in toilet cassette, so you can empty into any toilet without harm. Cesspits and septic tanks can be rendered non-operational by chemicals, there are “green” alternatives, or just use some bio-detergent.
Obviously, never leave rubbish.
Don’t necessarily obey notices; you can always move on if asked to do so (we have never been asked to move in 10 years).
Have secure locks on doors, and keep windows closed and blinds down after dark. If hot, open roof vents.
HAPPY VANNING TO ALL.
Love it... thank you... LoveSundays videos (particularly this one) have actually discouraged me to travel and take my money to Cornwall. I am now taking it to the competition 🙂
It was well known a few had parked up for months infront of houses, others dumped toilet waste in bushes along the front,even tho there are pyblic toilets close.
The few spoiled it for all.
I loved being in Falmouth
Love your videos Shaun...apologies for my daughter in the Chain.......Liked your collapsible mugs...now on the hunt.
Don’t be silly she’s lovely
Love the videos as always!
As someone local to Falmouth, there was some absolute sheds that used to park there and I wouldn't want that outside my home / business either. I love vans and vanlife, but some of them in Falmouth look like they shouldn't even be on the road.
To be fair to the people that did used to stay there it was never dirty with litter or smelly with urine and if you passed late on a night it was always quiet. But if you paid good money to stay at that hotel or any of the apartments down there, and you got there to what looked like a scrap yard parked right in front you'd be a bit miffed.
And before people have a go at me saying "well maybe it's all some people can afford" I TOTALLY get that! But a wash doesn't cost much, to clean the moss and green algae off the side of your van costs just a few pounds at the local fuel station or something like that. I always really liked Falmouth and we never got chance to stay there once our van was finished as this ban came into place.
It is really sad how against campers the UK is compared to the rest of Europe and its sad this has been ruined by the minority for the majority.
Hello shaun,
Just been doing a major catch up on your videos having fallen behind by a year so have been watching your videos everyday for the last few weeks, i have to say watching your videos is such a wonderful form of escapism away from the dreary news of the day. Loved the van build thing which I have just got past. Also i have sent a £25 thankyou as i know it is Charlies birthday, so you can get him something. Great to see you still getting good view figures.
Tony Roberts
Thanks Tony really appreciate that mate
It's the few vanners that spoil it for ever else by not following the correct procedure disposing of their toilets and rubbish. Depends what type of van it is also. If its an old hand painted Transit with rust and general grot you can understand it. Residents will fear new age travellers. However, if its a fairly new vehicle in good order they probably wouldn't care so much.
It was only a matter of time before 'the man' came for you! Boat dwellers are feeling it too!
Great video Shaun Two Vans! My Sunday morning guilty pleasure.
Good to see you using the old van again pard, it's like an automotive Swiss army knife. 😉
She’s still going strong
The problem isn't van dwellers but those who holiday for free! We live in our van and we have witnessed first hand the people who are on holiday don't care because next they can go home. We now work on a camp site and these same people will sneak in here to empty rubbish, the loo and shower or whatever they need. These are the free loaders who need to stay at home or pay their way!
Great video Shaun, me and dexter have missed these videos you do, he loves looked at the scenes around you and the sea.
Great content like usual tho ❤️🙏🏼
I genuinely believe that talk of motor homers/van lifers emptying their waste is mostly propaganda. I am not saying that it hasn't happened, but I believe there is a resentment among certain people who have jumped on this narrative, to further fuel a contempt for alternative lifestyles. In my personal experience, most Motor homers/van lifers are good natured, respectful humans who love nature, and extremely respectful of other's surroundings; even, actually cleaning up litter, that locals have deliberately dis-guarded, including black plastic bags of dog poo!
We have lived in our moho for 3 years now and we have NEVER witnessed toilet emptying or such like. We have seen people setting up camp which is bad. The mess we have witnessed is people pulling up in cars. They are far messier and more noisy.
It's really quite discriminatory and I feel something of a 'false flag' to accuse Moho/van lifers with such claims. My daughter nearly, almost completely lost her sight when she was around 6 yrs old. It turned out to be Toxoplasmosis (via accidental ingestion of Dog or Cat faeces.) picked up whilst playing in a park. And yet, no matter where you go, dis-guarded black plastic bags of dog poo can be found, hanging up on a fence post, or up on a tree branch; and litter strewn about the place.. Part of the problem is that local councils will not take appropriate responsibility for the supply of waste bins, and therefore, deflect blame by pointing to our door!@@ArianneAvalon
Lol I just came back from Falmouth and so many beaches have signs saying No overnight stays or no motorhome or campervan
The problem Cornwall has with campervans and vanlifers is there are just far too many of them rocking up. Some of them are frankly hooligans, with no respect for the area or the people who live here.
Great video and great tip on folding cups just bought some.
I was car camping in the Isle of Wight recently. Some good car parks, expensive during the day, £2 from 6pm to 8am. Big signs up everywhere though, no sleeping in vehicles. I ended up parking in quiet residential streets. ilona
so true Shawn only takes one council to kick up a stink or a van lifer to spoil it hence loud music and left rubbish ect as we seem to be tarnished with the same brush it's just not fair tbh 😮😮🙄
The weather definitely wasn't good for snorkeling but me,my daugther and dog was in cornwall for 7 days the surfers definitely loved the waves while we chilled on a beach or two. You,Kate and Charlie are so lucky to live there. 😊
Thanks 😉 we (me & my husband Karl) love watching you. Cornwall is our favorite place ♥️.... We hope you get the van on the road soon 😊 x
Thank you so much
Hi Shaun, it's just the same problem as people not picking up after their dogs.. there will always be the few that spoil it for the majority sadly 😖. Hope you get your van sorted soon and next weekend is looking better for weather so hope you get to do some snorkeling 😁🙏🍀👍
Very true
I ❤these simple videos budd, no crap just pure joy 👍
Thank you
Haha, you law abiding citizen you !!
Not much fun being knocked up in the night & having to drive off half asleep so might as well make life easy for yourself & be discreet as you did. Too many vans/motor homes etc now so they're more obvious to miseries who feel threatened by them, only takes one or two to leave a mess (or be blamed for it) to get everyone up in arms.
Hope you get the parts sorted soon & can get out & enjoy the new van.
Thank you for taking us to the 🌊 .
Hi Shaun x I practise trigger point therapy here in NZ x you may have tendonitis from all the manual work you have been doing - but also it may be Golfers Elbow. If it is - active trigger points in your triceps ( muscles in the back of the arm)may be the cause and it's an easy fix. Pain at the front of the elbow that you are describing is the classic symptom. Try putting your other hand(thumb) into the painful inner elbow and use your 2nd finger to explore and see if there is an area of tenderness x if you can find a tender spot try pressing on it (Ischaemic pressure) for 90 seconds at a 6/10 in pain and see if that brings relief x repeat 2-3 times a day. Also a soft ball on your kitchen bench top and massage the muscles in the back of the arm. Inner elbow can also be TP's in the chest muscles. Again a ball on the chest muscles and gently roll around using 2 hands and see if there are tender spots( trigger points) xxx hope its an easy fix - if its tendonitis you may need a cortisone injection.
Thank you so much for the advice Debbie x
@@LoveSundaysI've had tennis elbow do not get cortazone injections as your only allowed a couple and the pain is bad from the injection and it can eat flesh ,best option if you do have golfers / tennis elbow is an op, mine was caused by power tools mainly a jig saw and using it loosely by that I mean not clamping the wood down like when cutting paneling etc
Love The Chain Locker . And that part of the Harbour has a good atmosphere 👌
Hi, this is not only a british issue but an european one in general as you might probably know. In december 23 we actually planed to travel to the UK this early summer but - sad to say - we decided not to. Here in Germany - which is for sure not the most attractive but nevertheless nor the most unattractive destination - you would make the same experiences depend on the region. And I must say that I do understand locals who are fed up with campers. There are so many of us who have obviously never seen a garbage bin (or whatever it's called in english), have no sense of how to behave and how to camp as restraining (again I do not know if that's the correct word). There are to many campers and not enough spots where we could stand free and legal as long as we don't want to use official campgrounds. We#ve had good experiences with the italien and german versions of "Britstop" but in deed that is not the same. I don't want to sound educative, but if we feel that we disturb locals we don't even stop. If there is a sign which says "no camping" I might find that sad or whatever - I'm not wnated there and if I would spend the night there, that just causes even more anti-camping mood. And that's bad for every camper. Yes, it's sad and (past in other words of anger) - but ignoring signs is not the solution. Not in the Uk nor anywhere else.
Appart from that: if you finde the time visit Sweden. That's a complet different world for campers. cheers und schöne Grüße aus Deutschland
Nice one Shaun it's a pity the few ruin it for the many. Pity about the snorkel and the weather but your upbeat which is a good thing. Now got to catch up with the last 2 as i have been away for a couple of weeks. Thanks again Shaun
Thanks Nigel👍
We went to Salcombe last year in our motorhome. The car parks run by south hams council didn’t even allow you to park in them let alone stay over night!
Needless to say haven’t been back since!
I can't believe what I just saw. You threw away the sausage and chips!!! 🤣🤣
It was terrible Colin 😂
Near where I live there are parking bays for camper and but there are signs saying no overnight parking but so many take the piss and kick off when asked to move it’s no surprise that people have had enough
i have a campervan and love it so dont get me wrong, I'm all for it but... here on the wirral we have had people literally living here for the last few years, first the took up space on the prom so we couldnt park, then they moved to a local supermarket car park, then to another free car park, there were that many of them local residents couldnt get a space and then there was the smells, we have a boating lake and the van dwellers were emptying their toilets onto the lake! the water went green and it had to be closed off! I know its not all of them but the fre bad apples are making it bad for everyone else to enjoy their camper vans
I must say, your vlogs are so interesting. I really don't know how you fit it all in! Keep up the good work 👋👋👋
Thank you! 😊
Hoping for better weather next Sunday. Still good to see you and the coast.
Thanks Sally
I love my nespresso insulated mug, couldn't use one of those folding cups. I also keep a flask for hot water to use throughout the day. The spear and Jackson one in home bargains is still hot 24hrs later and only 12.99!
Agreed about that chip shop. It was very mediocre when we went. The pub is good though. We sat outside there a couple of years ago.
I think the problem with van parking is places like Bristol, where whole streets are full of people living in their vans. Other councils see that and worry they could go the same way.
This is a shame, i am not a van camper but am looking into it however, I do wild camp, it is getting ever more difficult to camp anywhere because of the selfish no-marks that keep leaving their mess behind, this is not helping us but what can we do, its catching the perpetrators. BTW loved the song lets draw the curtains, you could have a no1 hit their 😂😂😂 great vids, keep up the great work 👍
Re your arm. When you go to Dr make sure you tell them how you hold the camera. Good luck with that. Also thanks for taking us to the chain locker. Our favorite Falmouth pub.
Will do
No, it IS local residents who hate your camper vans. The amount of cope that camper-van people can surmount is amazing.
Shaun, the gas cooker you use in your vans I also use at home when I'm in a hurry, great aren't they?
Thanks
Thank you
GReat Vvlog as usual, just a thought, when I was travelling the uk, I love Weymouth, just wondered if on one of your next trip could go there for me and take some lovely shots of the harbour, I so loved Welmouth, so beautiful...see you next week.
I was in Falmouth end of August lovely place very expensive if you want to go to the museum or castle but plenty to do and see.
The video ( at both ends ) highlights the issues
There’s been a persistent problem on the seafront of a lot of vans parked there for days sometimes it’s 20 plus , and then you’ve got the group overlooking the docks that have been there all summer and then you’ve got people that just flout the rules
I love my van but I really think we need to be more careful and subtle in our behaviour
Falmouth is a beautiful place , I’ve grown up here and there are lots of campsites available nearby and quieter locations
France manage with nice Aires, not difficult or expensive. It's public road, i.e belongs to us.
France is a republic and camping car aires (short stay overnight parking, not camping)is part of their constitution, to promote visitor trade in the local area,
Fresh water and waste/ toilet disposal is often at a cost,
In contrast portugal have made free camping illegal due to the issues we have been talking about,
We need free camping to stay in the uk, that will be dependant on the less responsible /freeloaders,
Living or holidaying in a van or motorhome is not free, using public toilets after a casette has splashed everywhere with nothing to clean up with is misuse and unhygienic,
@@charlesdeakins2546 Look at the local costs for a council to implement a 20mph scheme.
It's hundreds of thousands.
All motorhomes need is a place to park, a waste pipe, a tap, and a dustbin.
The Local Government Act 1888 Section 79(2) allows them to spend the money to do this: councils are supposed to be our servants, not rulers.
Stay for 1 pint but in my head, I really wouldn't mind another. Typical British weather. It looks like I need to stay a bit longer 🤣
Come on people it’s about money if you’re bringing your own hotel restaurant on wheels the town isn’t making any money simple
WHY ? … because they dump sewage down the Drains and leaving Dog SH1T bags on Walls and Leave Trash Behind all the time for other to clean Up, Thats Hardly Respectable is it . ????? Tell your Fellow Campers to Start acting Respectful then there would be No Problem…..
Never been keen on Falmouth, don’t know why but there it is.
I love Falmouth, my favorite place in Cornwall but everywhere seems to be going against campers 😕
Go to France we have no problems there its great. They encourage camper vans. Most parking is free and people respect the country. Over here its just pay pay pay.
Nice video. I love fish n chips but haven't had it in a long time since i have not visited the UK recently. Greetings from Jamaica.
Is it the police that would go around between midnight and 6am to move campers on? I'd just stay there and see what happens
It is a matter of economics that is motivating the change in attitude. Frugal campervanners are gradually displacing casual tourism who plough decent money into the local economy. Campervanners are largely self sufficient; they aren’t buying overpriced rooms and lunches. The image and sanitation issue will be a supporting factor, but this is definitely motivated by economics - it always is.
Stop it. I haven't been home to Falmouth in over six years.
Currently living in Australia and loving life. But videos of my old home is making me homesick.
Flushing or Mylor is a good spot to park up.
Even the carpark between St Gluvias Church and Travis Perkins is ok at a push.
Love Falmouth, been going camping near Meanporth for over 40 years. Shame I live 400 miles away.
🙂
You cant beat the Cornish weather, its one of the only places in the country where you can experiance all four seasons in the space of an afternoon. I used to love Falmouth when I lived in Redruth really nice town although Rick Steins chippy was the place to go at the time for expensive fish and chips although I think its closed now.
It's got to be pretty hard to enforce. Police aren't going to have the time to move people on and if you don't get out of your van there's not really anything they can do
I thought the ideal about campervan life was to wake up to great country views and not be a hinderance to others. I don't as do many other campervanners.
Went to saltburn the campers all parked on the front, people who bought sea view houses have no where to park 😂
Morning shaun ITS the Scratched record here 🤣 great video on van life at the coast and towns not wanting us. I feel the best way to show them just how much of a difference we make in the towns. Is black list them don't go the shop owners will then kick of to the council when profits are down. We always do the same park in land then go back to the coast in the morning. Hope you get the new van back on the road soon, safe travels. 🫶👍
Chainlocker is a great pub. Hope you manage to get to see a doctor. Virtually impossible here in Redruth to get an appointment.
Why can't the councils give u designated areas..
Even a farmer would make a tidy sum during the summer
Left arm feels like its someone else .... LOL
Hi Shaun. Cracking video mate, shame about Falmouth stopping overnight campers I really can’t see the problem myself but you do get the odd ones who wreck it for everyone else. Keep the good videos coming mate. 😊
Cheers Jon
Wait till dozens of camper vans come and rock up outside your house. Guarantee you won’t feel the same. I’m in north devon and am sick of huge vans parking in stupid places and driving down tiny lanes and making people reverse because they can’t but they are “loving their van life”. You lot putting videos out encourages them and is your own downfall. If you find a good thing, keep it quiet but don’t promote it, then when loads of others do it get vexed because people moan about having to live next to your “van life”.
To be honest I saw loads of campers in the layby overnight
Finding it ironic spends so much time by the sea snorkelling and surfing actually allergic to sea food!🙃
Fish are friends not food.
Same happened in Exmouth, Devon
Plain chips & sausge & no juice ? 😮
Perhaps if you went to campsites like caravanners you would be welcome. Motor homes are now the choice of the travelling community
Maybe we need people removing the no overnight parking signs 😂to be honest from midnight until 6am isn’t really bothering people! But loud disrespectful van lifers playing loud music and leaving rubbish is almost certainly the reason 🤷🏻♂️people have even been seen emptying toilets on the street too 🤔shame how it can reck it for the good ones
With that parking ban it must be registered officially with the road laws so always check with council register most sighns are scare tactics i know ive got off loads of tickets 😂😊😊😊 you live in a nice part of uk 😊
Ansum video mate , always enjoy your videos 🙏🏻
Great video, I have a fish allergy too! Can't eat seafood either! Shame really about the dislike towards van lifers.
It’s funny because when I’m snorkelling I can touch crabs and all sorts of sea creatures and I’m fine. As soon as I eat them it’s game over! Weirdly though I can eat tinned tuna (not fresh tuna though)
@@LoveSundays wow, exactly the same, canned tuna only, you're the only other person I've ever known that has the same allergy!
Weird isn’t it
Shaun..... you need to try CATCH Fish and Chips in Porthleven. Opened this summer by a well-known resteranteur and is superb! Great pies and sausages! They are a great, fun loving, bunch and would probably like do some kind of collab 😀 Love watching the channel 👍
Went there the other week, full of expectation, honestly.......it was dreadful never again.
Penmere in Falmouth or Newlyn ( on the way to Minack ) are much better
Any other votes ?
Perhaps Shaun can include a taste test on his Cornish Adventures
Hate chippies that don't serve gravy haha
Morning all
Wait a minute you make a video about noisy neighbours(14th of jan 2023) but in this video you say they only made a small amount of noise?
Made me proper chuckle… its weird cos this is my left arm 😂😂
Lol
That's an expensive jumper 😳 £120 online !
It was a birthday present from my parents
Its discrimination and we explorers are not welcome unlike every country in Europe that welcomes explorers/tourists with open arms
In fairness if I was paying to stay in a sea front hotel I certainly wouldn’t want to look out my window and see a row of camper vans …. sorry
It's a dying game now cheaper to get hotel room sites are expensive some charging separate for electricity and people doing old vans into non d.v.l.a.registered campers and wanted thousands ££ for them
Love your videos ❤
I’ve been mates with you for years, I know you’re used to a weathered sausage.
I was nearly ill looking at that sausage 👍
They are just jealous at vanlifers cause we have free accommodation and the best views money can buy. For them it's costing a arm and a leg. Makes sense that they would try ruin the fun for van lifers.
You've got tennis elbow buddy, it's bleddy painful. Take painkillers and wear a support.
I’ll give ya a tenner above scrap value …. Final offer 👍
Because they don't pay board.
When these hotels are filled with the new British the locals will long for the days of campers
I don't have a camper and couldn't care less that camper vans park near the beach. Its called freedom. Also many of these places are empty after six.
You need to watch Dave Merphy 35. Its a claim you're accepting a contract by performance, he has his own contract.
Campervanners have only got themselves to blame. I've watched a lot of videos now on TH-cam as I was seriously considering getting a van, but have come to the conclusion it will be far better to continue taking package holidays etc.
The vast majority of campervanners don't seem to care about other road users trying to go about their working day, they cruise along holding everyone else up and never once pull over to allow them to pass. If you're wanting to be a free spirit and are in no hurry then why not have a thought for your fellow man?
Every time you go to the seaside now you see a number of these unsightly vehicles, in various states of repair, all along the seafront spoiling the view and preventing other visitors from parking as they sit there all day (and night if they can) 'wild camping' or whatever they like to call it.
Clearly getting rid of waste is a major problem, I've seen various solutions recommended, including using supermarket toilets (because they're free), but there will always be some who just dump it anywhere they can on other peoples' land.
It's a real shame for those who use their campervans responsibly and stay on registered campsites, but all the freeloaders out there have spoiled it for everyone now, most people are heartily sick of them and it surely won't be long before the Government and local councils crack down hard on them.
