Love 2 Stay - August 2018 - Day 4

[@jaydreamersthree6039]

Great video as always...looked like you all had fun .......keep them coming...Love your blogs ..xx 🙋

[@HomefromHomewithLinRich]

Dan you are doing such a great job of these videos. These family videos are what got me hooked on your channel in the first place all those months ago . Being paralysed at the time but able to forget my physical state and escape into your wonderful world was priceless. It reminded me of how far I have come since that first video I watched ....and now I feel you too have also come full circle with your channel. Back to basics of the wonder of caravanning. Your channel has it all!, so now there is something for everyone! You and Ange keep me so inspired every week and I thank you so much for helping me raise that incredible amount of money for my charity. You truly are my hero!

[@ronhill2]

You should have gone to the bridge, there is a walkway alongside of it and you get a good view of the underneath in close up.

[@johncreen5957]

Great video and very well edited, really enjoyed the slow motions bits, thanks guys

[@MyBigTOW]

Really enjoying this series. You seem to have taken your editing skills to another level on these. Very creative and some cool video shooting too. We were down in that area last year, not staying on the site, we were looking at Caravans at Salop Leisure. We took time out to pop to Ironbridge too. It's a very nice place .... shame about the bridge renovations scuppering your day. Coalbrookdale, and the Cemetery, resting place of some of the Darby family who were the pioneers of the Industrial revolution, Blists Hill and a short drive away is the Wrekin. All very interesting stuff ...... but history lesson over. Thanks for posting these up. I hope they inspire a few more people to visit the area as it is well worth it.

[@arrunden7127]

After watching the videos we looked at booking to stay here for August bank holiday 2019, only to find out the prices have been raised from £44 per night, for 2 adults and 2 children over August bank holiday 2018, to £66 per night for next year. It looks nice but a 50% increase seems rather excessive. We were told it’s because of the new spa facilities?

[@TheTrudgians]

That is excessive. That would make it far too expensive for us to consider returning. Im not sure if that is a new development or just the hot springs and beach area. Shame.

[@wendyduggan7866]

Love all your videos Dan, keep up the great work, mixing up your lovely family experiences along with some tips and useful upgrades vids. Been watching since you did the Carry on Caravanning filming, good down to earth stuff. Re the gorgeous doggie you have "Chops" do you have any tips about hols with the dog? Maybe an idea for a vlog? We've got a young lab cross (not so small like Chops!) so would value some advice as I saw a while ago you felt a bit 'tied to the dog' and whilst you all want a good time it's tricky because not all places will allow dogs. It seems ours just wants to hog the bed and get up at dawn for a walkies!

[@azzathorpe1384]

Can ask what campsite is that please

[@TheTrudgians]

This is love2stay.co.uk

[@TheCaravanNut]

Liking the BBQ and fire pit area, do you have to book that?

[@TheTrudgians]

Hi, yep - you can book this from the reception and use the fire pit and one cooking area. you purchase a token and that gives gas, power, water all that you need for the evening. Take care Dan

[@scotiajinker8392]

The bridge has been under major repair for months .. the vitesse looks fab

[@HereWeTow]

Must admit the site does look well. Looks like you did have the break you needed. Thanks for taking us along. 👍👍

[@kevandrews4699]

Hi dan another great video again looks a nice site and plenty to do but do u think it quite expensive there or reasonable prices cheers .kev

[@TheTrudgians]

Hi Kev, this is quite expensive - there is no way to sugar coat it im afraid.

[@leer798]

No day 5 ?

[@TheTrudgians]

Nope, no day 5. we spent the remains of the holiday off camera.

[@leer798]

The Trudgians Well you have to have some time To yourselves hey :) What's your overall view of the place ?

[@wendyr4656]

Hi, hope you are enjoying your Anniversay away, with the caravan getting wet from the rain outburst, in years to come you will be able to share this story and look back on your anniversary with a smile and a chuckle😄❤🥂 # yellow dress looks lovely on you wife💃

[@hettysmotorhomeadventures4860]

Shame the bridge was covered, did you find the fantastic pie shop, big 👍

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

That's the sort of luck we have. Blist Hill is a really goid day out though.

[@TheTrudgians]

Thats on our list for next time. 100%. Hope you are both well Bob. Take care Dan

[@johncooke2739]

Great video Dan, very entertaining. Love to be around that fire pit

[@tophat6696]

Dear the Trudgians. (You said you were going to edit the last bit with Freddy C out 😂) Thanks once again to you guys for making our caravanning experience what we hoped they would be. Good Times man! We are really looking forward to more adventures like this with likeminded people such as yourselves. Hope to do it again soon. (Wish I knew it was the middle nob I also needed to turn down 🔥) Lee & Phil 🎩👍🏼

[@TheTrudgians]

Aherm.... I cannot remember saying i would remove Freedy C from the final edit.... i was stone cold sober, if you recall ;-) Looking forward to the next meet up, hope you are both well (and you removed the coffee from the curtain okay) All our love, Dan, Angela & Chloe. xxx

[@tophat6696]

The Trudgians the curtain is ok ! it may have a wash see how it goes lol I though my life was over at that point 🤪 I have 30subs 🤭 👍🏼🎩

[@TheTrudgians]

Oh awesome. you'd better make some content soon then... give us a tour around your lovely Hobby caravan... I was very impressed with it, im sure others would love to see inside. xx

[@tophat6696]

The Trudgians we will get it shorted, open the door to the world of hobby caravanning an all it has to offer !!💁🏼‍♂️👍🏼👌🤗☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️🎩

[@debsbird8693]

Loving this series of vlogs about your trip away ... looking forward to the next one 😊

[@timleaning6695]

Have you had your appendix out? Did mine last weekend... :)

[@jomoore2161]

How you getting on with the air awning?

[@TheTrudgians]

Better than I expected to be honest.

[@jomoore2161]

The Trudgians , would you have got it without the extension?

[@Mr1967flyingv]

Great video Dan.

[@dawnforsyth93]

Hi how long did you go away for your video cut short or did something happens unexpectedly x

[@TheTrudgians]

We went for 7 days, video cut short as we just wanted to enjoy our holiday off camera. Thanks

[@dawnforsyth93]

Hope you have had a great time

[@amandamcnab8791]

As usual! Brilliant!! 👍🏻 our caravan trip didn’t go without hiccups either! 1 car crash, 1 dead pigeon and broken headlight on curtesy car, 1 new aerial amp! Still a great time away though! 👍🏻🤣 keep the vlogs coming! Luv um! X

[@TheTrudgians]

Wow - that sounds like a script for a Sit Com. Glad you enjoyed it though. Take care Dan

[@amandamcnab8791]

The Trudgians 🤣🤣

[@Threelinkdave]

Having driven all that way you shouls have visited Blist Hll open air museum

[@TheTrudgians]

We would have loved to, but by the time we had finished it was already quite late in the day. But, its on our list when we return.

[@vince_martyn]

We have been to Blist Hill a few times, well worth going, especially for the onsite bakery.

[@bobmckayfreedom]

It’s a must

[@buddysinsight9834]

I just had a huge driving holiday trip through France, Switzerland, Italy Luxembourg and Belgium and you can always spot the British from any distance because everyone has brand new caravans and campers. Honestly if you see the Europeans they all use really old ones. Thats no joke Dan I didn't see one modern van in any country unless they were brits. Why is that are we just proud or what it completely baffled me. I think all of our old used ones go abroad. Last year I did 2300 miles in Europe and it was exactly the same thing. Can you do a vid and find out why

[@geofffoster1704]

Triumph Vitesse 2 - Ltr Mk 2 Convertible, I had a G reg in dark blue saloon, wish I still had it now, loving your show only recently started watching, now subscribed and have done nothing but catch up on all your blogs looking forward to seeing more, enjoy the rest of your hols

[@moxymagic]

Love the outdoor cooking area , did you have to book that ? Is there a cost?

[@TheTrudgians]

Hi yes, you can book the outdoor cooking area at the reception. you pay for a token which gives you power, gas, water all for 2 hours and use fo the Fire pit whilst there. If i recall i think its £12 for the evening. We split the cost and the use, which made it great for socialising away from the caravans etc.

[@moxymagic]

Fantastic, this place is about 2 hours away from us so it's now on our list. Do they allow tents too or just caravans ?

[@TheTrudgians]

Its just caravans, trailer tents, and motorhomes. But there is a glamping area as well.

[@Antsmithmk]

Only problem with this place is all the add ons. It's already expensive and then there are little costs associated with all the other activities which can add up to an expensive break.

[@jaydreamersthree6039]

Great video as always...looked like you all had fun .......keep them coming...Love your blogs ..xx 🙋

[@kennytyler4041]

I cant believe you went to Iron bridge without going to the Victorian village up the road, missed a trick there Dan.

[@TheTrudgians]

We would have gone, but by the time we finished up it was quite late on - and we had to get back to meet up with Phil & Lee. next time though...

[@CaravanningwiththeCoxs]

Great Video! Sambuca um... that reminds me of something! Lol. Cheers Oliver

[@DesmondsDonders]

Bitterly disappointed with you. Perfect set up and you missed it. You do realise that the bridge is covered until they iron out the problems with it. I'll get my coat :-)

[@katcankan7129]

Shame about the bridge, but you made up for it it seems. 👍

[@alanjackson4646]

www.ironbridge.org.uk/explore/blists-hill-victorian-town/ this is a great place to visit if you are in the area, about 10 minutes from Ironbridge. Cheers AJ

[@tomvlogs2849]

You should really go to the nearest hospital or doctors to get your side checked out

[@TheTrudgians]

Its alot better nw, some rest and its almost gone.

[@focusgazblay3177]

Wet dog BMW X5 😱😭

[@TheTrudgians]

Ahh, its to that bad.... (i try to convince myself of this every time)

[@Lifeat39000ft]

Kel says you moan as much as me!

[@TheTrudgians]

pfffft..... I really don't moan that much do I ? blimey...
