Interesting. You’ve had the best of both worlds and no longer need to wonder what’s it’s like on the other side. Welcome back to Caravanning and what a van you’ve gone for 👍

Indeed! There are lots of fantastic things about motorhoming, but we like the relaxing feel of having a caravan pitched on site. I’m sure we will turn to a motorhome again in years to come!

You were absolutely right to try it. All of your reasons were the reasons we went back to caravanning. Motorhoming is for old people :-) I'm JOKING! Anyway, welcome back, BTW you don't need to explain anything, just do what you want to do. I personally don't care what vehicle you holiday in, but I draw the line at a GoPod. Again, I'm joking...

We have for 15 to 20 years run rallies for the caravan and Motorhome club and seen at least 60 or so people do what you did, then after a fee months switch back to a caravan. We agree with everything your saying. The alternative is towing a car like Bob and Jenny or electric bikes like extreme Motorhome adventures, very beat of luck and take care. Happy caravanning.

OMG, yesterday morning we were caravanning with you, by yesterday afternoon we were travelling to Scotland with you in the Motorhome, now just a day later we’re back in the caravan! Phew that was a trip, maybe we won’t make that jump just yet. Interesting about the comfort. All our motorhome friends say how luxurious our Bailey is and how use to the space we are. Island bed for us though. Thanks again.

Oh if only you knew what we was going to do . We have been caravaning fot 20 years we have taken 4 Grandchildren away with us sometimes their mums in UK and Europe had lots of fun we have done this every years sometimes for 6 weeks at a time every year. all our bikes including ours a total of 6 bikes they loved it, and we felt honoured they wanted to come with us .so we thought a motor home might be a better option as only 1 Grandchild and his friend comes with us. we thought would use a motor home daily for small trips . But I looked at our caravan online today and said what are we doing .We love setting it up making it look lovely .we also love going to visit different places and love the van. I was trying to find caravan vloggers on u tube when you popped up and said exactly what I had realised this afternoon we love caravaning it suits us , I am so glad you have spoken out as it confirmed what we have already said for years . We really enjoyed watching you both and Loved your new van.So enjoy being a caravaner as we do have lots of fun thank you for making us realise how lucky we are to be caravaner

I think the main difference for me, a Caravan generally stays at a Campsite for a week or more and and you use your Car for sightseeing. A Motorhome is a short stay vehicle and used extensively for touring ,most likely moving on after a day or two.I know there are exceptions but having had both I prefer the freedom a Motorhome gives.

Well you know life is best lived as a series of experiments and you went for it and were rewarded with some amazing motorhoming adventures and as well as being fantastic they showed what the next bit of your future looks like and for now it’s caravan shaped but who knows when life has moved on again it’ll probably change shape again :) If you hadn’t gone for it a year ago you might still be wondering (and regretting) not seizing the opportunity! The important thing is you know yourselves and what works best for the near future so I’m (not that we matter in such a decision!) super happy that you’re happy and the Unicorn Black series looks amazing so I’m sure you’ll have lots of wonderful times in that :) Happy travels!

Hi you two. I understand where you are coming from in your decision. Having recently been on our first trip out in our new Motorhome, we stayed put on site and thoroughly enjoyed it. I must admit there is a little bit of me that is anxious and wondering how we will get on with travelling from place to place and getting out there to see the sights. I guess we will have to try to remember that what comes out of the cupboard goes back in the cupboard lol. The proof of knowing is doing, just like you have done, so watch this space. We wish you all the luck and happy travels in your new caravan and of course we look forward to seeing further videos you put out. ~ Lin xx

We've had a big motorhome, then a caravan, little motorhome, then a caravan, middle size motorhome and now FOREVER a caravan. Yes we agree with all you have said. We were in the Lake District but there was so much we couldn't see. A caravan works so well, we have a base but can travel where we want and when we want in the car. Yes the comfort is wonderful in a caravan especially after a busy day looking around the area. Like you we tried every set up, but in the end we, like you we are caravanners - and we are older than you. Hope you keep going with vlogs in your caravan. Just discovered you and so happy to watch a couple in a caravan.

Great decision guys, we bought a twin axel 6 berth Abbey earlier this year as our fixed bed swift wasn't right layout with kids, I think the motor home suited your Scotland tour where you want to move round every couple of days but I can see how it could be a pain for a week long holiday on one campsite.

Welcome back, as we did earlier this year! 12 years of motorhoming from 2008 to 2020. We missed the space and comfort of the caravan, I agree with you on the captains chairs, they just aren't as comfortable as a 'proper' chair/bench seat. We also find that if you are setting the caravan up for a long stay, it takes around the same time as the motorhome. We went from a Bailey Autograph 79-4 to the Bailey Alicanto Grande Porto and are loving it. We're looking forward to seeing your new adventures soon....... and Dorset eh? We are in and from Weymouth.

Hi you two - I could have told you you would since we come across dozens on our travels to France every year. We met people wo looked at us longingly as we set up our caravan and then stuck the bikes on the car and then took trips out even to go to the supermarkets etc. Some motorhomers even towed a small car or on a trailer to get around this. Many told us they had switched because they feared a snake but after I told them I had the solution they said they would change back and just keep watch on my system ( did not show them what it was) I hate to be a spoil sport but make the most of it since it will be coming to and end now that we have a new Asian millionaire PM and the great reset it about to land on us.

We made the same decision when we were working then it was difficult to tour into small villages car park height restrictions so we moved from the dark side (ha ha) in 2016 we just purchased our second new caravan 2020 welcome back from the black hole we made the same decision and reasons as you both discussed no difference motorhomes v Caravans good luck We looked at black edition range but went for coachman vip Dave

We love our caravan and my brother in Law loves their motorhome. We keep thinking about the simplicity of the MH, but keep coming back to the question of getting about when you arrive. We like to pick a place and then explore, so the caravan is best for that. Great to follow your experiences and look forward to Caravan Chit Chat again 😎😎 👍👍

To be honest, we found the things we thought would be simple actually took just as much time or longer, filling the emptying the fresh/waste water for example. The only real easy but was not having to hook up to a car!

Hi ya, so respect your decision and applaud you both for going with your true feelings and sharing it with us subscribers. We have a Campervan and I keep looking at motorhomes because I want more room ( I miss my Caravan) and after watching your vlog am now thinking that maybe a motorhome wont satisfy my lust for more room as it comes with other restrictions.......look forward to the return of Caravan chitchat 👍😊

Once again thanks for your honest vlog it made us evaluate our wants and needs and prompted us to discuss what we really wanted. 😎

Hey guys at the end of the day you have to do whatever is best for you and whether in a MoHo or a caravan or a camper or a tent - we’re all camping!! It was interesting to hear your reasons for going back to a caravan as we have been contemplating getting a MoHo (not just yet) and the reasons you said are the reasons we are not convinced it’s the right move for us either. Can’t wait to see your caravan P.S. can we have a caravan chit chat sticker when you get them please (you’ve messed up my sticker collection now! 😜🤣😘xx

To be honest I was disappointed when you went to Motorhoming as I loved the caravan you had. A year or so ago when we were caravanners and we looked at some Motorhomes. However we found the comfort and space of a caravan lacking. We decided that out of the 2 we preferred a caravan. I think sometimes you have to try things before you realise where your heart lies. Well done on reaching the right decision for you both at this stage of your lives! (We've gone back were our heart lies and bought a narrowboat!!)

Hi Guys well you know 😂😂😂😂 I totally agree with your decision I love my caravan and the lounge space although a motor home is ideal for a quick weekend and travelling on one or two night stops then moving on a caravan is far better for a long holiday just to set up and leave and pop off in your car. I would imagine it far more expensive to run as well. You have give it a go and you have made a decision it’s not for you well done and good luck with your new caravan. By the way Vicky my Husband has the same problem with my snoring 😴 so you are not the only one 😂👍
