- We stayed at the caravan and motorhome club site situated in the stunning Brecon Beacons.

Our visit was over Easter 2024, and although quiet and very wet we had a great time. In this video, we visit the Penderyn distillery and enjoy some great food that we picked up from the local butchers in Brecon.

Hey Angela and Dan! We’ve recreated your favourite Gin and Ginger Ale drink and it is now one of ours. It is henceforth referred to as “a Trudgian”, thank you for sharing it!
Looks like a good trip. Caravanning, booze, sausages, innuendos. My sort of holiday.
Born and bred in Wales, glad you enjoyed the Welsh whisky and gin, all it needed was a few rugby songs to finish it off! Great video, as always. 73 & 88
Happy Birthday Angela. Wow this video tickled me so much 😂 your weekend seems very similar to ours, we love a good distillery or farm shop/butchers and sample the local produce, love going round and having a potter. There are some great waterfalls about in Wales, much better to do them in the spring/autumn/winter, we did one in the lakes last year and I nearly died walking up 😂. Looking forward to part 2 👍
I had this about the breakfast in Scotland. I asked for a full English breakfast. She said be careful remember where you are 😮. On that basis if I asked for a paella do I have to ask for a Scottish paella 🤷🏼♂️😂. If I was in Spain I can ask for a Full English.
Happy birthday Angela. Thanks for all the information. We are due to go to the same site in May as part of our “Welsh Womble”, so we now have loads of new ideas and suppliers to look out for. Looking forward to part 2.
Happy birthday Angela. My old stomping ground mate. I'm from South Wales originally. Mum and Dad had an old caravan nr the river Usk. Good fishing. I also did part of my military training in the beacons. Thank you for sharing. I live in North Wales now. Some good sites nr us. Can help with deals if you ever fancy it.
Happy birthday Angela hope Dan spoiled you 🎉🎂🍰
Haha loved this drinking sesh with you both ❤ class 🤣 🍸 😊 xx
Happy belated birthday Angela,
.One of our go to sites,only an hour away.Had a fabulous T bone steak from that butchers. We had Easter in the Elan Valley, so noy that far from you.Did meet you Dan in Tewkesbury, last August Bank Holiday, catch you again sometime.
That lamb, looked flippin gorgeous 😋.
Lovely video as always 😊
Thank you 😋
Happy birthday Angela! Fab vlog, made me laugh 😂
Our favourite campsite.
Penderyn whisky. My absolute favourite and we can even get it here in Australia. Cant wait to go back there and do a gin tasting.
Lovely video, I must tell our friends about the distillery, we need a village campers visit there. Linted mamb steaks forever 😂. My husband is obsessed with waterfalls so we definitely need that app. Looking forward to the next one.
oh, if he likes a waterfall, check out part 2. its all about waterfalls....
Lovely part of the country! When we were there last year we saw a lot of waterfalls!! Mainly down the outside of the front windows of the van!! It's worth it for the superb scenery. One thing, could you not have found a bigger knife to open the lamb steaks? All the best.
Happy birthday Angela. Xx
Happy Birthday Angela 🎉🥃
The exact same pitch we stayed on back in 2015, lovely site and close ish to elan valley
We'll try your drink next time out. Looks good. We do almost the same but with a slice of orange.
Oh, queen starts on her colour.
ha, yes we realised after the games we had it wrong, this was all part of Mrs T cheating strategy im sure. Get me drunk, play the wrong colour, lay the board out wrong.... gotta watch these hustlers!!
Do try the drink, its fab!!!
Hi Dan. On the subject of whiskey my favourites like you are scotch peaty smoke whiskey closely followed by Japanese whiskey. Noticed you had cotswold gin. A must try cotswold whiskey it's up there with a good quality scotch 😊
Happy belated birthday Angela. We also prefer Chinese food over an Indian too 😀
You are not supposed to give out ages. Am disappointed that you didn't film on the way Iam not from UK & would like to see it & from the map as well oh well next time? Have a good one❤😊
Missing that view! I was on pitch 22 from the 15th to 22nd March!
Happy birthday angela
You need to try Octomore. Ppm starts about 150. £100+ per bottle. Only one thing you add to it.......more whisky!! Penderyn use ex Laphroaig casks to put the whisky in. 🥃🥃
Thanks for the tip!
Another great video.... Shame about the lack of footage of arrival/set-up however....
ahh, it was raining and really not the time to be worrying about filming things. Next time im sure you'll get some driving and setting up shots!
@@TheTrudgians I completely get it.. We got soaked on both set-up and back away over this B/H weekend..
That Lamb looked really tasty, on another note Dan have you ever had a issue with plastic double hinge pin on Dometic fridge door snapping i have a replacement one but would like to know best way to replace ?
See you met my brother John. Hope you had a good break.
It was lovely, thank you, Please say hi to John from us!
Dan
Hi Dan, Wales my fav place, how do you find towing 8 ft wide van in the Welsh hills/roads ?
P.S. HAPPY BIRTHDAY Angela
Hi, this isn't related to your vlog but could you at some point do an awning video please. We have just purchased an isabella magnum awning and we're not sure if the storm straps go inside or out. Highbridge told us in but there's some Isabella videos which show outside 🤔. I have asked the question to Isabella. It seems all awnings are different!! Thank you. BTW the lamb looked delicious 😋
You do realise you are corrupting us with all this food and drink 😂 we are taking our new caravan for its maiden trip next week and feel a need to pinch some of your ideas, and it will be so difficult for us...not. We are going to Banchory in Aberdeenshire which is an hour and a half away. Should find something there 🤔 hope you had a good break in Wales and a belated happy birthday Angela. Love your videos
Sorry 😂😂
FYI there are quite a few better water falls about than that one you saw lol
ah, youll have to check out part 2 then... ;-)
@@TheTrudgians looking forward forward to it
Hi Dan just a quick question
Are you and Angela still using the Duvalay mattress topper for bed
As husband has started with bad back and states bed in caravan to hard then remembered you got mattress toppers so looked back in videos until found it
Just thought to ask if you still use the duvalay topper still
Hi Dan can I ask a question from you last Q&A how do you put a VPN on to a route as I just had a Avtex fitted ?
Here you go.

I’ve always thought you were punching mate.!!
shes my rock. my soul mate, shes simply amazing! well out of my league.
Linted Mamb that’s easy for you to say 😂
Just a thought how you enjoying pulling twin wheeler and 8ft wide caravan
Ours is 71/2 ft wide 26ft long twin wheeler
Husband says she's the easiest caravan he's ever pulled doesn't bounce or drag when wagons overtake
Also the space in caravan with being wide and long
Have you noticed difference with going to 8ft wide caravan
I have filmed a caravan tour, and my thoughts and experiences of towing an 8ft wide caravan, that will be out in a couple of weeks.
Hi Guys . How bad is the noise from the gun range.we stayed in Aberbran last year to be near Brecon ? Arran and Marie
To be fair, it’s not bad. Just occasional pop pop. By no means intrusive.
We’ve stayed there a number of times and not really heard the gun range much at all, tbh didn’t even realise there was one close by 😂
Are the Brecon Beacons near
Bannau Brycheiniog ?
No, miles away.
lol.
Get Yourself down to Corsham and visit toby Haynes butchers for sausages. Not too far from you
ha, good old 'sham. I went to school there, and went to school with a "Haynes" too, i wonder if theyre related....
Top tip for visiting Wales…go in summer..the rain is warmer 🤣🏴
Happy birthday Angela 🎉🎉🎉
Both you and Dan mentioned to went to the crystal shop and I did notice the book in the back ground is it a good book worth a read
Angela says it’s very informative. My dad purchased it for her, she hasn’t put it down since.
@@TheTrudgians
Thank you Dan I might just have to get that one then plus I just want to say my husband and I are getting our first caravan for us and our 5 children I want to say your video's are very informative
Very helpful 👌
Hi Dan, Have you done a comparison on the change in fuel since going to a twin-axle? Did you notice much difference in towing, like tiredness or draining when towing a large van?
Yes, i have filmed a "Whats it like" video on the new caravan, in terms of MPG, weve dropped about 3 - 5 miles per gallon. Which, i dont think is too bad for a 2 tonne 'van. Our car, is a thirsty beast anyway and on this trip to and from the campsite, i averaged about 22MPG.
@@TheTrudgians Thanks. We have a Luna 460 twin birth, but I managed to get 32-24 MPG. I am thinking about going for a TA and what impact it would have etc. More space but a TA might be harder to setup etc. Still thinking about an upgrade though, as the fixed bed and more space is tempting.
Don’t go chasing waterfalls…
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to...
Of Course it's raining, it's Wales. God's own country. Unfortunately the God in question is a Rain God.
