Easter Campervan Spring Clean

Finally Spring is definitely here! Easter always marks the start of the season when the masses descend on the campsites around the UK and some even further afield!
We like to make sure the van has a full clean before we set off at Easter, inside and out so it's ready for another year of Adventure making!
Join us this week as we set off on our first extended trip of 2023 and see if you can guess where we stayed, the full video will be released on Friday 14th April. Lots of food and local beer of course plus a few Easter treats!
Thanks so much for watching, we love reading your comments and it gives us inspiration to create new content, please feel free to drop us a comment and let us know what you did over Easter.
Our camera kit for anyone interested:
Sony a7C
Sony ZV-1
Sony Xperia 5 iii
Rode VideoMicro
Rode Go 2
Insta360 One X2
DJI Ronin SC

[@WanderingWilkos]

[@VantasticAdventures]

Spot on Jon 👌🥰

[@ScottishVanTrips]

Aha! I know where you are, the gnocchi definitely gives it away... You're in Milan😂

[@VantasticAdventures]

Ha ha 😂 now that would be a great trip!!! 👌

[@LeisureBit]

Happy Easter 🐣 Look forward to next weeks as looks a great site, don’t think we’ve been either. All the best, David & Rachel 👍

[@VantasticAdventures]

Thank you both 🥰

[@annbletcher9410]

Well it was the M6 as I spotted the sign when you crossed the Lancaster Canal 😂

[@VantasticAdventures]

Ha ha great spot Ann it was indeed 😂👍

[@couplandsj]

Seeing as you drove past Lakeland Land Rover in Coniston, you’re staying at the Coniston Park Coppice club site. Looks lovely…😊

[@VantasticAdventures]

Great spot Simon 👌🥰

[@davidlindley485]

The Land Rover dealership at Torver was the first clue to give it away. Park Coppice is a lovely site and a good location to explore the unspoiled western lakes and the Cumbrian coastline.

[@VantasticAdventures]

Great spot David 👌🥰

[@garagefaff]

Camc site Coniston 👍

[@VantasticAdventures]

Spot on 👌🥰

[@carolburton5983]

Looking at the beer I reckon it’s the lakes

[@VantasticAdventures]

Great spot Carol 👌🥰

[@karlospappy8908]

Wondered where you've both been hiding. Started off at Shell 556/49 junction then the Land Rover dealership at Torver finishing at Coniston, years of being a tech on the road means I know every bump. Hope you had a great weekend. Cheers K.

[@VantasticAdventures]

Ha ha 😂 This made us laugh, you are absolutely spot on, even down to the fuel station ⛽ 😂 Great job 😁

[@lawriej27]

Coniston and it’s not raining (yet) 😊

[@VantasticAdventures]

Ha ha 😂 very good 😊 it stayed off almost for the whole trip, very lucky indeed 😂

[@michaelodling248]

Coniston. We tried to book there this weekend for our first ever trip in our new (very 2nd hand) Motorhomes. We couldn’t get in, so our first weekend away is next week- we should have killed the twins by the Sunday so we can then downsize to a van like yours 😂. I hope the weather has been good to you.

[@VantasticAdventures]

Ha ha 😂 hope you had a great trip that made us laugh 😂😂😂

[@michaelodling248]

@@VantasticAdventures we had great time thanks, learnt a lot - empty cassette mor often or…….. we went to Wharfdale which was really nice, near grassington (all creatures…).

[@VantasticAdventures]

Ah lovely part of the country! Glad you enjoyed it 🥰 yes that is always a challenge... Should you empty or risk one more night 😂 we learned early on the same as you, empty more it's much easier 😂👍

[@richardstainthorpe1342]

Park Coppice, Coniston. Try a breakfast at the Bluebird cafe

[@VantasticAdventures]

Excellent! Well spotted 😄 we agree the breakfasts was excellent! 🥰

[@mjjamieson73]

Coniston Park Coppice Club Campsite

[@VantasticAdventures]

Spot on 🥰👌

[@Wheres_wanda_wandering]

Gnocchi tricolour looked interesting. What are the 3 types? You look like you’re at a lake. Take care Gill

[@VantasticAdventures]

Caroline says plain, spinach and tomato 🍅 she thinks 😂👍 Thanks Gill 😁

[@rogergusty1802]

That Italian Pasta at the end was definitely a Red Herring, so by a process of elimination you are not in Italy!!!

[@alexspeirs8675]

Think you are round about Ulverston area

[@VantasticAdventures]

Great spot Alex, extremely close 👌🥰

[@lynnearnshaw4346]

Herdwick sheep, Lake District?

[@VantasticAdventures]

Very good spot Lynn 🥰👌

[@DudleyDellTelly]

Coniston CAMC site.

[@VantasticAdventures]

Well done 😁 spot on 👍

[@peterscanlon9380]

Bala lake?

[@VantasticAdventures]

Can see why you thought Bala but not quite 🥰

[@lizvickers7156]

The Lake District. Was it worth doing the video. Or putting a video out to be more precise. You could have waited till next week. Don't like these short snippets of videos to come. Would rather have the actual video and wait.

[@timharrison3521]

😂😂

[@debbiehasacampervan4842]

I love a short video to keep me going! It’s a great reminder to tune in next time.I am thankful that people take the time and trouble to film and edit for our entertainment. I’m sure those that aren’t interested could refrain from clicking. 😊

[@VantasticAdventures]

Hi Liz, understand and we agree, we don't usually do teaser videos or the new KZbin shorts but we had a camera malfunction on the first day so didn't get enough footage to upload a full video as planned. Originally we were going to climb the Old Man of Coniston on the first day but decided to wait to check on Mollie's leg - it didn't quite go according to plan 😂 Hopefully you enjoyed the full video which followed which was a bit longer than normal to make up for it 🥰👍 Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment 🙂

[@VantasticAdventures]

🥰

[@VantasticAdventures]

Thank you Debbie 🥰

[@christianryan9680]

Lake Coniston, CAMC Site? 🚐🙂

[@VantasticAdventures]
