Maybe the best kept caravan park we've been to - Delph Bank, Lincolnshire

[@helenandmartinsTreks]

What a lovely site and not too far to travel either. The Austrian lager is certainly tempting, maybe you ought to convince them to stock Ghost Ship and it would be even more perfect 😂 so glad you got a view from the church tower after all that effort and a good job it was one o’clock and not twelve when the bells tolled otherwise you might now be deaf 😬. Definitely a site to add to our list. Best wishes H&M. 😊

[@HelenandDave]

Hello H&M, we really liked it but would have preferred Ghost Ship 😂🍺. BTW, just done the Adnams brewery tour, like a kid in a toy shop (coming to a video near you). Hope all goes well at the NEC 👍

[@gallivantinggalantes]

Hello Dave and Helen, ooh it’s a lovely campsite isn’t it. We have visited there. Have they opened a spa as yet as the owner told us that would be his next project? Nice location for visiting other places. Wow you did so well on climbing the tower, I don’t think we would be able to do it these days, the views were amazing ,the church is beautiful, nice that there is a cafe inside. Lovely video x Julie and Tony x

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Julie & Tony, hope you’re both well. Yes, a great little site with such lovely facilities. That climb was hard work but I’m glad I did it (and made it in one piece 😂). No mention of a spa and nothing in situ as yet though. Thanks and best wishes, Helen & Dave 👍

[@ChrisHamlet]

Great video. Well done on your climb up Boston Stump. It’s a beautiful church, my daughter got married there. Boston Wednesday market used to be a very big affair with coaches coming from miles away, the market place was full of stalls and a great atmosphere. As with so many towns, it’s no longer the bustling market town it used to be which is so sad really. The campsite looks great 😊

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Chris, thanks for watching. I know Boston, like most market towns have changed but we were still very impressed. Thanks for watching, Helen & Dave 👍

[@dianegregory6562]

Looks a lovely site not that far from us. Didn’t know it was there will be visiting great vlog

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Diane, thank you so much, glad you liked it. We will be returning for sure. ATB, Helen & Dave

[@Bongoben]

That looked like a great site. Iv been thinking of visiting Boston and would definitely have to climb that tower. Great video 👍

[@HelenandDave]

Interesting place Ben, told you I wasn’t fit 😂. Well kept camp site, adult only 👍

[@cfp8872]

Hello Helen and Dave, We moved to Boston from Suffolk a few years ago. St Botolph’s, known locally as The Stump which in its current form was built in 1309 replacing a previous church on the same site. The tower was not finally completed until 1510 at 272 feet is on of the tallest parish churches in the UK. The Windmill you spotted is the Maud Foster Mill situated next to the Maud Foster River or Drain as it’s locally called. It was built to take water away from the Farmland and at low tide is emptied out into the Haven River when full where it travels out to the wash. The Mill still produces excellent flour and is well worth a visit next time you are in the vicinity. You certainly found a decent site there in Holbeach. We are off to the Dales Sunday slightly less flat than Lincolnshire 😂

[@HelenandDave]

Hi there, thanks for the info, some lovely history in Boston and some beautiful buildings. We loved our visit and Delph Bank is a lovely site. We hope you enjoy your stay in Dales and fingers crossed for good weather. Best wishes, Helen & Dave

[@jennifergrimble6117]

Well, what a brilliant site never been there. Wish I still had a motorhome. Looks like you had a lovely time.👍

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Jennifer, it really is a lovely place. They take pride in what they do and are nice people too. Thanks for watching. Helen & Dave

[@terryfielding8836]

Hi Helen and Dave. the site looks lovely. Thanks for the trip up the tower of Boston Stump, it's the only time I'll see that view!! I admire your determination and energy for making it up (and down). Cheers Terry

[@HelenandDave]

Thanks a lot Terry, it was a heck of a climb but I'm glad I did it, the view was amazing. Lovely site and Stewart was a great host. Thanks as always, Helen & Dave

[@robswiseways5697]

Hi there Dave and Helen, nice to have a sneak preview before our booked visit. Looking forward to it very much. I don’t have a head for heights but Gail has always been determined we go up Boston Stump. Bet you’re glad it was only 1 o’ clock with the chimes 😂. Dave, you’re unfit 😂. Seriously though it was a climb and a half. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀.

[@HelenandDave]

😂😂 Hi Rob & Gail, you’re right, I’m certainly not fit but I’m challenging you both to climb the stump when you get there and let me know how you get on! Lovely site, nice FS pitches. Hope you enjoy it. ATB, Helen and Dave 👍

[@angelad7164]

Evening both Wow what a lovely place isnt it Thanks 4 showing us Love u guys❤️💙💚💜

[@HelenandDave]

Glad you liked it Angela and thanks so much for watching, we really liked Delph Bank, it's beautifully kept and we will be back. Thanks for watching, Helen & Dave

[@wdavies123]

Hi Dave and Helen, yet another great video, thanks…. I’m so excited to say that you have inspired both me and my wife to buy a new caravan which is the sterling eccles 580!!! Keep the great videos coming and thank you both :-) best wishes Wayne & Beth

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Wayne & Beth, That is awesome! many congratulations on your purchase and we hope you have many fun adventures, we can't get away enough to be honest, we just love the freedom to travel where and when we want. Thanks for watching too and please stay tuned. Helen & Dave

[@peterkent9745]

Thanks for another great Vlog I’m glad you succeeded in climbing the tower, it means I now don’t have to 😀

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Peter, it was worth it but I won’t be doing it again 😂😂 thanks for watching, Helen & Dave

[@Suffolkbirdcontrol]

I was with you every step of the way up Dave 😮 hope Helen and yourself are well, stay safe 🦅🦉

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Alec, we're all good thank you (I'll drop you a message). You climb buildings like that regularly but I have to say, that almost finished me off lol. Enjoyed it though. Happy caravanning, Helen & Dave

[@danielrussell446]

Hi Helen and Dave a fabulous video and it looks an amazing site and so clean and welcoming I can see why you were both happy there It’s been many years since I’ve been over to Boston my brother used to live in Leicestershire and we went for a day out over there and to holbeach did you know Geoff Capes was from Holbeach! Great video in the Boston stump and what a view I know you can see it from miles around it was well worth the climb! Have you been to spalding they used to have an amazing flower festival in the spring with carnival floats decorated in flowers it’s a great county and underrated in what it has to offer all the best to you both Daniel

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Daniel, you’ve been busy catching up (thank you). Didn’t know Geoff Capes was from Holbeach but I do now 👍. Great little stay here and the climb up the stump was well worth it. Hope you’re keeping well and thanks for supporting the channel. Best wishes, Helen & Dave 👍

[@barbsdee3831]

This is going to be one of the first sites I visit when I get my caravan, just 25 miles up the A17 for me. Have you tried Lincolnshire plum loaf?, delicious with butter on it. Well done on climbing the Stump, I’ve lived in Lincolnshire nearly all my life and I’ve never been up there 🤦🏼‍♀️ Thank you Helen and Dave 😘

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Barbs, Honestly, it's a wonderful place and really well kept and we wouldn't hesitate to return. Take care, Helen & Dave

[@kevinpawson110]

Hi Dave and Helen we love delph bank stayed there 3 times.great site always clean and tidy.kev and sandie

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Kev & Sandie, it’s so beautifully cared for, not a weed in sight. Thanks for watching, Helen & Dave

[@GailBrown-np7bb]

Lovely site, thanks for the vlog. That was a tough climb Dave, I was gasping with you all the way! Don’t like heights so not a climb I will ever do, plus the knees wouldn’t handle that at all, I would have been sat with Helen in the cafe. Well done, you should have got a medal or badge of honour for doing that for your art x

[@HelenandDave]

Thank you Gail, kind words indeed! It was a tough climb but the view was amazing. Great site and one we will certainly be returning too. Take care, Helen and Dave

[@LindaRees-le2xn]

Another great video Dave and Helen

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Linda, thank you so much, really glad you liked it and thanks for watching. Helen & Dave

[@helenbosworth5950]

Beautiful site

[@HelenandDave]

Thanks Helen 👍

[@sandrapearson728]

What a lovely site, heroic climb Dave! Looks a really nice area to visit, another one on the list.

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Sandra, I thought I took that climb in my stride (not) 😂😂. Loved the view and the site was really good. Hope you’re well and thanks, Helen & Dave 👍

[@patoflaherty1887]

Nice video ....i often drive past boston on my up to visit family in Sheffield. Might detour next tine and have lunch in the church ❤

[@HelenandDave]

Lovely church and a historic market town that's seen a lo of changes but retains its charm. Thanks for watching. Helen & Dave

[@Meggy6571]

Hi Helen and Dave 😊. Yet another great find, we were at milestone site not so long back, but the site you have shown us looks like it has more to offer in the surrounding areas. Not sure we'll take on the stair challenge 😅, sure Jo would love the market's though 😮. Looking forward to the next vlog. Take care as always. Paul and Joanne 👍 ♥️. PS hope Helen is coping OK 🥰

[@HelenandDave]

Hello Paul & Joanne, lovely site and we will be returning but I’m not going up that church tower again 😂😂 Helen says Hi and thanks for checking in, all good. Take care, Helen & Dave

[@ronniehaylett5211]

Lovely campsite, DAVE love the Church 👍

[@HelenandDave]

Cheers Ronnie, smart campsite and good facilities. Amazing church! Hope you're doing well, see you soon, Helen & Dave

[@planecrazyaviation7773]

Well done Dave, that looked like a tough climb. Very nice looking campsite, it’s on the list. Hope Helen is well and thanks for another great video. Steve & Chris

[@HelenandDave]

Thanks both 👍 It nearly killed me lol. Delph Bank was lovely and we will certainly be back. Take care, Helen & Dave

[@janiceKershaw-km4uf]

Oh wow ,don't know how you did that climb, well done.👏👏

[@HelenandDave]

Janice, neither do I 😂😂 glad I did though. ATB, Helen & Dave 👍

[@alisonhiggs6048]

Well done for climbing all the steps looks a lovely site

[@HelenandDave]

Thanks Alison, great site but I won’t be climbing the church tower again 😂😂🙄👍

[@SusiB13]

The site looks lovely. Ive put it down in my book of sites to go to

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Susi, it’s a lovely place, we will be heading back for sure. Take care, Helen & Dave 👍

[@paulegner7653]

We stayed there on that very pitch back in April. Wonderful site with it's own on site walk to the old station,and not far to the national bomber command memorial and museum.well worth a visit

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Paul, what a coincidence, will get the museum on our checklist for the next visit. Thanks, Helen & Dave

[@juliegough350]

Hi helen and dave delph bank still looks great,not much has changed since we last went apart from shop and more hardstanding pitches and pods, im deffinitly going to book for next year. Never been to Boston, you did well with that climb i got the heebie geebies when you were on that balcony dont think i will be going up there. Hope you had a well deserved ghost ship after.Take care both see you soon xx

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Julie, we were taken by the site and the bar & shop was a bonus. As far the church tower, I won’t be going back up 😂😂 thanks as always, Helen & Dave 👍

[@delphjunction1168]

Hi ya Dave and Helen. What a lovely site, that's definitely one we are going to visit, not that far from us either. Hey Dave don't think you could have done any more steps, thought the paramedics were going to be called. 🏥 Su just said if I want to do that I'm on my own.☹ great view well done Dave was worth it. Great info about the station, as you know trains are my thing. Thanks guys brilliant vlog. We are at Fields end water on the 21st for 5 nights. Then beddy byes time for the caravan. Thumbs up thumped 👍 ....Pete and Su....

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Pete & Su, we thought of you whilst we were here and with a name like Delph Bank wondered if you had visited before. Those church steps were a killer but really impressed as to how they even built this church back in the day. Quite a view! Hope you enjoy Fields End Water and the weather is good for you. Best wishes, Helen & Dave

[@richardarnold3812]

Nice review. We were there a couple of years ago just after the current owners purchased it. Good to see they have kept up the quality of the site and developed a bit with shop and bar.

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Richard, we loved it and the bar and shop were a real bonus. Thanks for watching, Helen & Dave

[@greglewis8843]

Thoroughly enjoyed that thankyou

[@HelenandDave]

Cheers Greg, good to hear that, thanks 👍 Helen & Dave

[@johnnorton9487]

Im sorry my comment sounded a bit abrupt,certainly wasnt meant to be! Enjoyed the video sight looks lovely

[@HelenandDave]

No problem 😊

[@Gorutmk]

Great video Dave and Helen, of course. Spookily I am just about to book Delph Bank as I'm planning a trip to Lincoln, Louth and Boston in a couple of weeks time, so your video was very timely. I don't think I'll be climbing that tower in Boston though! Looking forward to your next adventure.....

[@HelenandDave]

Hi there Andy, very spooky 😂👍 hope you enjoy the site, it really is beautifully kept. I won’t be climbing the church again either 😂😂👍👍 Cheers, Helen & Dave

[@Gorutmk]

​@@HelenandDave- Hi both just returned from a short road trip to Lincolnshire. Stayed last night at Delph Bank - beautiful site - lovely large pitches and my dog Biscuit loved the Platform One walk. Enjoyed a pint of Austrian lager too. Well recommended.

[@HelenandDave]

@@Gorutmk great 👍 glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the feedback. Safe travels, Helen & Dave 👍

[@lesleyhaylett7938]

Looks a lovely campsite. Nice area too. Church was awesome. Bit too much heavy breathing for my liking though 😂🤣😮‍💨

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Lesley, a bit too much for me too an oxygen tank would have been handy lol. Thanks for watching :o)

[@Steve-k2c3d]

Look very nice👍 if you are looking for something different try Woodhall Spa home of the 617 squadron Dambusters, you have a working historic cinema in the woods and more.

[@HelenandDave]

Cheers Steve, know it well been a few times and we’ve done a couple of vids on it too. Thanks for watching and the heads up. Stay tuned, Helen & Dave

[@teessidevandriver2748]

Hi dave this was our second time at this site. we stayed on our way to yarmouth in july grest site . andrew&julie

Hi Andrew & Julie, very well kept site, we were impressed too. Thanks for watching, Helen & Dave

[@ptqt25sussex5]

Try Fydell House in South Street in Boston open Monday to Friday 10-4 on Wednesdays their cafe is open. Free to enter. Georgian House. Great garden. Lots of different art exhibitions. Right next door is The Guildhall which is also free to enter and is a museum. The Windmill is The Maud Foster windmill which is open Wednesdays & Saturdays and a few pounds to see the working mill which is fascinating and to purchase some great flour. Sessions House was the old court and is still there and is often used to film old courts for to dramas.

[@HelenandDave]

Great insight thanks, we were very impressed with the beautiful buildings and rich history associated with Boston. Thanks for watching, Best wishes, Helen & Dave

[@johnnorton9487]

Sy trader mill is about 8 miles from Boston

[@HelenandDave]

I was reading what was on the information board that was on the church tower but must have got that wrong.

[@FredFox-m9v]

It looks like the caravan industry is having a torrid time. The big caravan retailer near us, Teesside Caravans looks to have dissolved, discovered just now from the internet. Sad about that ! That church, nice and warm ? Don't they know that pensioners may use it. Don't tell Rachel Reeves.

[@HelenandDave]

Hi there Fred, I think you're right there! Norfolk's biggest dealer, Greentrees has just announced that they are closing down at the end of the month too, not gone bust but clearly business can't be what it was. Thanks for watching, ATB, Helen & Dave

Hi, can I ask what app/website you use to show your journey on the map? Thank you in advance.

Not sibsy trader mill it's Maude foster mill

OK Thanks for the info, I really don't know which mill it was I just read what was on the info board in front of me.

Windmill is Maud adams

Thanks David, I was just reading off the notice on the church info on the wall in front of me 👍

[@cameronstevenson7138]

Just seen on another video greentrees caravans who were in 1 of your recent videos are closing down and going out of business so thats another dealer gone

Yeah, another one closed Cameron, but of a trend!

Nicely summarised 😂👍🍺

[@caveman3474]

Compared to Eye Kettleby lakes the site rates for low season are more expensive.

[@HelenandDave]

Really? That’s interesting, is that on a like for like pitch? Thanks for the info. Helen & Dave

[@terryfoster1706]

Very expensive for a single caravanner.

[@HelenandDave]

Hi Terry, for a full service pitch with such good facilities including a shop and a bar we thought this represented very good value compared to the many sites we visit. Cheers, Helen & Dave
