Hi Michael, If you have an onboard pump you could switch it on to boost the pressure. We’ve used our onboard pump twice when the sites mains pressure was poor. We did find it used the hot water up too quickly when showering and had to turn the mixer tap down a little to reduce the flow. Other than that we find ours ok. To eliminate a connection problem at the external water plug, when you’re next on site it may be worth opening the kitchen tap and press the water plug into the socket to see if it makes any difference to the flow. Last resort would be to speak to Whale and see what their response is. Hope this helps. Cheers Rob

@@robswiseways5697 thanks for coming back so promptly Rob. Unfortunately we dont have an onboard tank so the only pump would be the external one that came with the van for use with the water barrel. If we press the plug into the connection when in use and the flow improves what does this indicate please? Do we need to make some adjustment somewhere? We are already in touch with Whale but it remains to be seen if this results in any improvements. The only thing we did notice was that the pressure (flow rate) was better at the instant we opened the sink tap but fell away again almost immediately. I’m assuming this would be down to a temporary increase in pressure whilst the taps were all off and the mains pressure had a chance to build up slightly only to weaken again as soon as water started to run, even filling the kettle is a slow process so you can imagine what a shower was like! Cheers

​@@michaelhayes9975 Hi Michael, I would say if the water flow increases when pressing the water plug it could indicate the plug is not being held into the socket correctly? We too experience the drop in pressure after opening a tap, so guess this is normal. I wouldn’t call our shower flow poor but it is by no means the same as at home. We have an Ecocamel shower head which is marketed as being a high pressure low water shower head. We don’t open any other tap whilst showering as this effects the shower flow and increases the water temperature above your set tap position. I can’t think of anything else I can say to help with your problem. I hope Whale reply to your query and I would be interested to hear what they say. Whale advertise the built in pressure reducer inside the plug to be 1.5 to 1.8 bar. Personally I think it ought to be 2 bar. Best Regards, Rob

Thank you for your compliment, very much appreciated David 👍. You are very lucky to live in such a beautiful part of Wales. Llanberis is a very scenic village and the views from the top of Yr Wyddfa are stunning. Hope you have some lovely end of September sunshine 🌞. We are fans of Morris Leisure sites too and had a very enjoyable stay at Stanmore Hall. We have a video out on this site too. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀

It was a dream pitch Maxine and we’re so glad we went when we did. Yes there’s plenty to do in the area and there is another touring site nearby for anyone wishing to follow in our footsteps. Thanks for watching and for your kind comment 👍. Best wishes, Rob & Gail 😀

Thank you 👍. I’ve seen a few KZbin videos relating to a reset button at the side of the wiring connections. This may reset the unit, worth a try. Cheers Rob 👍

Thanks for watching and commenting Ron. Not a lot I can do about our dial tone 😅 but all is working pretty fine. I guess magic jack is similar to our Telephone Preference Service that blocks nuisance calls. You have to take care these days with all the scams. All the very best to you, Cheers Rob 👍

@@robswiseways5697 not really they don't publish our numbers like other phone companies. If my number got on a directory then the number would be published by who knows who. It's nice to know if you don't give out a phone number then less would be called. 73

Hello Andy, we are both well thanks and away in our caravan. We’re so pleased to hear you are at Goodleigh Hill 👍and are loving it. Say hi to Emily and hope you have a brilliant stay. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀

Wonderful to have made the connection. Thanks so much for coming to stay A&R. And extra thanks to Rob and Gail for A&R being our first Rob's Wise Way guests! Emily

Hello Morag, We are sat in our caravan at the moment at Holgates Silverdale and enjoying this lovely weather ☀️. We have good memories of Knaresborough and must go back one day. All well here thank you, hope you are too 👍. Best wishes, Rob & Gail 😀

@@robswiseways5697 Have a fabulous time 🌞

Not long to go now Bessie. Great site and wonderful area, We’re sure you will enjoy it 👍. Have a happy time, Rob & Gail 😀

Just hope the building work has finished behind it 🤔

Looking on David Wilson Homes website, the houses are 80% sold. I would say the development is either complete or near completion. Hope this helps 😀

@@robswiseways5697 that was so incredibly kind of you to look up - Thankyou

Thank you Andrew 👍. We discovered another little gem. Thanks for watching and take care, Rob & Gail 😀

Hi Carol and Stephen, Many thanks for your update. So pleased you had a wonderful time at Brandon Ford CL, excellent value too. it’s always good to learn about a great, fully serviced, hardstanding site/CL, so thanks again for sharing 👍. Best wishes, Rob & Gail 😀

@@robswiseways5697 You're very welcome.😀

Hi David and Chrissy, Guess you’re on your way now to wonderful Stanmore Hall. How exciting, we remember our first caravan holiday very well but we only went 20 minutes down the road 😂. You will be able to follow in our footsteps as you explore amazing Bidgnorth and the RAF country park. Gail’s uncle who was based there watches this video on a very regular basis 😁. Gail says hope you’ve remembered some seed for the peacocks and have a good time. Best wishes, Rob & Gail 😀

It’s a shame to hear this news. Just shows how popular it is if folk want to stay pitched up for the whole season. We had a lovely time there 👍.Thanks for watching and commenting. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀

Hello and thanks for your comment. We are still getting used to having to dial the area code just to chat to someone down the road, most annoying. We find ourselves using our mobiles more often and only using the landline to answer incoming calls. We are hanging onto our landline for elderly relatives sake. The line however seems to be clearer. I guess we have to move with the times and since posting this video we have switched to full fibre. I am currently making a follow up video on full fibre and will include battery backup to help us in a power cut. Cheers Rob 👍

Thank you very much for your compliment. I’m currently making a follow up video, full fibre broadband and battery back up. Cheers Rob 👍

I guess you don’t do CL’s Jim 😁 . Incidentally the CAMC refer to CL’s as ‘sites’. We’ve stayed at a couple of other CL’s where all five pitches were in a row with a nice view. We prefer this to suburbia and not nose to nose with another caravan. Broadway, yes we’ve stayed here and got the video ! (one of our earlier video efforts 😂). We had a good holiday there and it was great to see the Wanderer caravan. Hope you will favour our next holiday destination. Take care and best regards, Rob & Gail 😀

@@robswiseways5697 we have stayed at a couple of cl’s , but they had facilities and a dog field etc, this one just seemed a little “plain “ if you know what I mean. We hate what we call “car park “ sites too. One of our favourites is Stanmore hall where we stayed on the pitch you wanted in your film, also another favourite is eye kettleby, which I don’t think you’ve been to, or not done a film for. We love your films, especially how you show us round the site and give the pitch numbers etc, in fact we’ve just booked blackshaw moor, fully serviced, on your recommendation x

@@jimsmum21 Thank you for your reply Jim. Really pleased to hear you’ve been to Stanmore Hall and booked Blackshaw Moor on our recommendation. Yes we’ve been to Eye Kettleby too and we were on a great pitch. We have a video out on this site, I drove off with the jockey wheel down 😂. These are three excellent sites. Happy travels to you and best wishes, Rob & Gail

Hello Jim, please keep it positive! Like all CLs, we try our best with what we have - we don't have the budget of the Club behind us! But we love what we do so please be kind, it makes us all help each other that little bit more. You are most welcome to come and try us out. 1.5 acre field that encompasses the CL that the pitches look onto and guests are able to walk around. We have sown wildflowers onto half of the field so there is a nice view in the summer and that has seen a real boost in insect, bird and animal life thanks to the sowing of the flowers. The sun sets behind the poplar trees and we are just under one mile's walk from the centre of Pershore, 0.3m from the river. We have one foot in the country and one foot in the town as it were! So a glorified car park is really not what it is like here - perhaps you might like to rethink a rather unkind remark until you are able to come to stay and see it for yourself. Thank you, and once again to Rob and Gail. Emily

Thank you very much John 👍. Much to her annoyance Gail was diagnosed 13 years ago ! but she can still remember the taste of everything she now can’t have anymore ! Yes we were a bit close to the hedge but at least it made the pitch feel massive 😁 , we do favour a large pitch. Great CL and we’re so pleased we came here. Take care Rob & Gail 😀

@@robswiseways5697 wouldn’t like that Gail! Coming up to 34 years for me

Hi Derek, Welcome to the wonderful world of caravanning and thank you for your compliment. I have the Whale Watermaster Mains Water Hook-up kit. It used to be called Aquasource. The water flows in under mains pressure however, the plug has a built in pressure reducer so it’s safe to use. The website is whale.navico.com If you have a Truma water socket then Truma do their own direct water hook-up called Ultraflow Waterline. This has an inline pressure reducer. Website is truma.com We have an onboard water pump which we have used twice in 11 years when the water pressure was very low, for showering. Hope this helps, take care, Rob 👍

@@robswiseways5697 That's great. Thanks for such a thoughtful reply. I'll have a look at those. I have a Truma water socket 👍 Edit: Well I thought I had a Truma socket but looking at the fitments I'm pretty sure it's a Whale socket 🙂

@@derekbrooks6854 I should have mentioned Derek, I have a video on water connections, it’s titled ‘Caravan Fully Serviced Pitches - Part 2 of 4 - Fresh Water Connection’ . It’s a bit robotic, one of my very early videos 😂 but the facts are there. It’s had 57 K views !

@@robswiseways5697 Thanks Rob, very helpful. Ordered one from ebay 👍 PS I've subscribed to your channel as well. There's a lot of helpful stuff for noobs like myself.

@@derekbrooks6854 Thank you for your sub Derek 👍. Hope the element change goes well 👍. Cheers Rob

Thank you for your sub Mark and welcome to our channel. We’re sure you’ll make lots of happy memories on your travels in your motorhome 👍. We really enjoy putting our videos together and sharing our adventures and are pleased to hear you enjoy watching them. Take care, Rob & Gail 😀

That’s a very good saving Nigel 👍. I agree with using better tape, don’t want it to become detached with the heat from the fridge. I didn’t use the plate as it wasn’t applicable to the fridge model I was fitting it to. Hope it works a treat for you. Thanks for watching and take care , Rob 😀

Hi Andy, The Lake District does tend to be a little more on the expensive side. But you would be staying on a fully serviced hardstanding pitch with lovely views and not facing another caravan. We try to balance our site fees throughout the year. Our last holiday was £26.60 / night but our next holiday is a whopping £43 / night on the Cumbrian border. It is lovely at Threlkeld Hall, very peaceful and beautiful 👍. Hope you take the plunge. Take care, Rob & Gail 😀

Thanks for watching David. You’ll be pleased to learn we had no problems with the electrics 😁. It was a good holiday and we loved it there 👍. Cheers Rob & Gail 😀

Thank you Paul 👍. 238 clips went into the making of this video. Plus all the ones we messed up and deleted 😂. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀

Hello Paul, we’ve never visited this area before and we’re so pleased we came. Gail really wanted to bump into Toyah. That was the only disappointing thing, everything else was spot on 👍. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Rob & Gail 😀

Hi Sandra, Its a great feeling when you come across a site that you know you want to visit. That’s exactly how we felt when The Zammits recommended this site to us. It’s in a lovely part of the country too. You must try their pressed apple juice if you go. Hope you manage to grab a pitch 😂 . Thanks for watching and best wishes, Rob & Gail 😀

Hi Janet & Andrew, Lovely of you to join us again. I always show the approach roads and this one was plain sailing. I always check Google street view for all the sites we visit to get an idea of the approach roads. Maybe it’s something Andrew can consider when looking at potential CL’s. Lucky you going away for nine days ! The most we’ve ever done is six. Never been to either of these sites but we do have Lady Margaret on our ‘to go to’ list. Hope you have a lovely time 👍 Best wishes, Rob & Gail 😀

@@robswiseways5697Hi Rob & Gail, Just thought I would give you quick brief regarding Lady Margret park as it was on your list. Honestly we loved it so highly recommend it. It’s in a beautiful setting and there’s plenty of walks and historic information. The aqueducts are amazing engineering although one was a little too high for me so had to turn back halfway across. It would provide plenty of content for your channel. Take care both and see you in your next video 😊 Janet & Andrew x

@@janetboynton324 Thanks for your update Janet & Andrew, really kind of you to think of us. It sounds perfect 👍. We hope to visit in 2025. Thanks again, Rob & Gail 😀

Very nice of you to say so Barbs 👍. This is one of the best improvements I have done in the caravan. If there’s no one either side of us we do like to turn the volume up during an action film, it’s very effective. Thanks for watching my ‘how to’ video. Best wishes, Rob & Gail 😀

Hi John, When we stayed at Carsington club site there were signs placed around site asking folk not to cut across pitches. Brilliant. ALL sites need signs like these. Sutton on Sea was a lovely site and we had a great time there 👍 . Thanks for watching and best regards, Rob & Gail 😀

Hi Chris, We nearly had a row of subscribers 😂 . Shame we missed you by a few days. Pleased to hear you enjoyed the site as much as we did. It’s run with a passion and they are a lovely family 👍. I regretted not buying the plum sausage, will have get some next time. All the best to you, Rob & Gail 😀

Hi Alec, Yes we are very lucky to have a rich heritage of historic parks and gardens, ancient monuments and grand old buildings preserved for our enjoyment 👍. Thanks for watching and best regards, Rob & Gail 😀

Thank you for your kind compliment Peter 👍. We can highly recommend Goodleigh Hill CL, we had a brilliant stay there. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀

Hi there Roland, we had a very happy stay at Goodleigh Hill, can highly recommend. We always enjoy a walk or two from site and it gives you a good appetite too. Glad you enjoyed watching this video, we do enjoy making them but there’s always lots of hiccups and retakes that you don’t see 😂 . I would be like a rabbit in headlights on a stage 😂.

Hi Shaun and Sally, Hope you’re both well 👍. Thanks as always for your comment. This site was actually recommended to us by another channel called The Zammits and we’re so pleased we came. Take care, Rob & Gail 😀

Hi there Steve, Can’t believe your tour is nearly over. Hope you’ve had a great time 👍. Yes I remember those discussions about me joining KZbin all those years ago. Then I took the plunge and made a series of robotic videos 😂😂. Should have listened to my cute assistant (Gail’s laughing). Good job she persevered with me and it’s now turned into an enjoyable hobby. Thanks for keeping in touch, all the best, Rob & Gail 😀

Hello there Dave & Helen, hope you’re keeping well 👍. A cracking CL which we loved and an area we’ve never visited and enjoyed exploring. The RAF museum was a real treat and it turned out to be the highlight of the day. Thanks for your compliment Dave 👍. Take care and happy travels, Rob & Gail 😀

Hey Karl how are you doing ? Great to hear from you !… but trust you 😂. Made Gail laugh 😂. Thanks for watching and all the best, Rob & Gail 😀

Hello there Rik, it’s so good of you to praise our video, we are very grateful 👍. It’s a lovely CL which is managed very well and we can highly recommend a visit 👍. We have been remarkably lucky to stay on so many wonderful sites where we can honestly give good reviews. I think it would be our worst nightmare if we found we didn’t actually like the site after being offered a free pitch 😂😂 . Thanks for watching and best regards, Rob & Gail 😀

it's not really a site is it!! more a line of cars and caravans that happen to be hooked up to the electricty x

Hi Rik. Rob and Gail are so modest and generous about their brilliant channel that they didn't tell us until they arrived! And even then there was no mention that they were Rob's Wise Ways until I asked... You couldn't get a more kindly couple. A very big thank you in return. E&M.

Hello Lily & Bruce, hope you are both well. Your tortoise comment made us both laugh. Gail said I resembled a wood lice on its back with arms and legs flailing. It was my first attempt on an hammock and I failed badly 😂 . Despite the critics of the day we wondered just how time saving, if at all, the kitchen staff found the knife cleaning contraption 😂 . Good job times have changed 🤣

Hello to you both and thanks for watching. Maybe one day we’ll bump into you, we’ve never met another vlogger and you cover similar areas to us. Will look out for your Sutton on Sea CL video 👍. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀

Great compliment. Thank you to you both Glyn & Carol 👍. We felt right at home at Goodleigh Hill CL and we relaxed straight away. We were lucky to witness the hay bailing, it was lovely to meet two lots of subscribers and we enjoyed filming the court yard cottage. It was quite a special holiday this one. Coombe Court is worth a visit for the RAF museum alone 👍. Take care, Rob & Gail 😀

Our pleasure Andy. Glad you enjoyed it and many thanks for letting us know 👍. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀

Thanks very much Steve and Jayne 👍. Great to receive your kind comment and thanks for joining us. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀

Thank you Yvonne for saying ‘we make good videos’. That’s really lovely ☺️. We had an excellent holiday and it was a lovely CL. Lucky you going back to Cayton Bay again. It will be very tranquil now we’re into September. We will be off on our travels again soon and yes we will be getting a glimpse of the sea whilst we are there. Best wishes to you, Rob & Gail 😀

Thanks for commenting whilst on holiday Paul and Joanne. We appreciate you taking the time to do so 👍. Lovely Norfolk coast, lucky you !

Hello to you both. Hope you enjoyed your stay at lovely Eye Kettleby Lakes and are enjoying Broadway too 👍. We have fond memories of both sites. Didn’t realise Tony Hadley was local to that area. Fancy bumping into him there. A true gold legend he is too 😂. We were disappointed we didn’t bump into Toyah. We tried really hard searching for a clue… To cut a long story short we’re glad to hear you enjoyed our latest video. Best regards, Rob & Gail 😀
