We went to Woolacombe for our honeymoon 3yrs ago September. The weather was glorious and we had a fantastic time. Don't remember having fish and chips, but we did have a cream tea 😋

Hi guys. We watched your Vlog on our TV, so couldn't leave a comment. We really love your channel and look forward to seeing your travels and reviews. Woolacombe and Ilfracombe look lovely; we've been to other areas in Devon but not there. It Is a beautiful county. I am sorry to read you have received negative comments about Fudge's travel arrangements, especially on Facebook. When we saw Fudge in the garage in his crate we thought it was a great solution for him, although in practice it wouldn't have worked for our dog because she gets separation anxiety. I hadn't thought of the potential downside, especially in relation to a back end crash. We spoke about it being similar to dogs travelling in the back of a van in crates, such as dog wardens and police dogs. We hadn't considered the build quality of a motorhome isn't the same. As a result the feedback you've received has been really helpful and I hope the majority of people are just trying to be helpful in highlighting other considerations. We also watch Bob & Jenny Earnshaw's channel, where they have Poppy in a crate that is secured in the van. I am not sure precisely how they do it, When we travel in our car we have our dog in a harness, but we also have a hammock because when we had to brake hard one time she slid off the seat, even though she is small. We have wondered how on earth we are going to safely secure her in a motorhome, without the hammock. We are also looking to get a Labrador, so it would be helpful to know how other owners with large pets safely secure their dogs and whether any have been in a situation where they've had to brake hard in terms of the impact on the dog. So may people travel with dogs that maybe the manufacturers should be asked to look into animal safety when travelling. Take care both of you.

I used to drive an open top double decker bus for the Golden Coast. Woolacombe is a nice place to work and visit. The Red Barn on the front is a big pub popular with surfers. A huge sandy beach and you can walk round to Croyde and Putsborough, great surfing, and scenic views. Mortehoe is narrow and steep but worth a visit for lobsters.

Hi Karina and Jules. Just seen the vicious comments on Facebook. If Fudge was suffering from fumes you would have also smelt it in the motorhome. When my dog was in his cage at the back of the estate he felt secure. Think it's a case of someone writing a negative and other people who can't think for themselves jumping on the bandwagon. Love your vlogs and you go out of your way to help people. DON'T get disheartened. Pete and Su.

Another great vid. I noticed that fully serviced pitches are normally only a couple of quid more. Have I got that wrong and is it not easier just to pay a little extra? Also, in your opinion, what are the nest pitches and why? again, in your opinion. just trying to get a good idea of what to get if and when we get a van (going to look at some next Thursday). Another quick question if I may, we are adamant this is what we want to do after years of deliberation, is it worth hiring before you buy? I don't believe for a minute it will put me off.
@HereWeTow
@HereWeTow 3 жыл бұрын
Evening Iann..the pitch type question is a tough one as everyone is different. Personally I like hardstanding, whether it be gravel or a concrete base. If the weather is good grass makes a nice change but if you get rain it can be difficult in a Motorhome if the ground gets soft or slippy. I fully serviced pitch can make it easier if you intend to park up for a few days and are needing fresh water or to empty your grey waste. We go out in our Motorhome most days so a trip to the Motorhome service point is easy. Personally, I choose a pitch based on its size and the general room around it. In terms of hiring, that is a very good idea and you can hire all over the country. It will certainly give you a great insight in to motorhoming. Have a lovely week and take care, Karina 😊

Great beach for dogs. Ill have to try that site soon. Do you recommend it? We are newbies to this. Had our first trip to Cheddar bridge site a couple of weeks ago which was really nice. Staying at Eastfleet farm tommorow till Sunday. I think our pitch is around were you stayed on your video.Was it a good part of the site to stay on? Thanks

Thank you for watching, East Fleet was brilliant and where we were was definitely the better bit. Our friends moved from the part they were on as it was crowded and noisy. We had a good stay at this site, I always do a bit of research and try pick nice pitches as that can make a real difference. If you watch our vlogs from various places it will give you a good idea of places to try. You can always book a night or two and if you like it stay longer. Good sites to try are those with Tranquil Parks (Adults Only if you dont have kids) and Best of British. You will find some good sites to choose from. Enjoy your travels 😊😊

Hi we just got back from Eastfleet today. We really enjoyed it, weather was great which helped. We actually pitched at 49 too and it was a great spot. I dont know if you know this but Eastfleet may have been bought out by Away Resorts since you stayed but prices are still good, we paid £62 with our 2 dogs and if we wanted to stay another night it was only £6 extra. Shop was great, well stocked and reasonable prices too. We’re off to a small 8 pitch adult only site just outside Bridport called Ernie’s plot mid May that looks really nice. I dont know if you guys have been there too? Thanks Paul

The statue on the harbour in ilfracombe is called verity. She’s by an Artist called Damien Hurst. If you had walked down to the harbour to see her, you would of been able to see the Combe elephant. It’s a local landmark. There are other car park in ilfracombe which take motor homes. The one by Brookdale Church does right is in town and on the flat for those not up to the walk or hills. You can also walk from woolacombe to ilfracombe along the coastal path, it’s about 6 miles via Lee. There’s a hourly bus service from Combe to woolacombe for the return trip. And as you said in your video, the traffic wardens are enthusiastic about their jobs! Very enthusiastic so park with care people.

Loved your video as it was all about my old stomping ground when I was growing up! Saw my old house in Ilfracombe by the war memorial. 😊 Love your description of The Capstone that you walked up. Ilfracombe is an old victorian seaside town but unfortunately lots of the fabulous buildings have been demolished! I am surprised you parked at Brimlands (Hillsborough) as I thought the car park at Wilder Road would have been more suitable and more central, unless they don't allow motorhomes of course!
