Stealth Camping at the UK's Largest Service Station

[@hobouk3871]

Yay a stealthcamp, ive really missed these kind of videos :)

[@marcink1804]

me too, happy to see Will doing this type of videos again. I stil enjoy camper reviews 😉

[@rachel30831]

I agree! I could happily watch a stealth camp video every Sunday night!

[@roberthead2408]

Me too!

[@massivley]

Cannot get enough of watching these stealth camps

[@ghazalabibi2332]

He paid for parking

[@rubenflex2]

The series about trying out other people's campers is the best thing on KZbin. But it's great to see you in your own camper again😊

[@RockRebelfull]

YES!! Been dying for a stealth camping video!!! Glad to see them and hope you do a few more. Also enjoy it when you cook in the van too. Great job!

[@richsmart321]

It’s an utter scandal that service stations are allowed to charge/fine for parking. You’re told if you’re tired to pull off the motorway into a service station and get a couple of hours Kip and the reason for this is obvious. You could potentially save lives. Lorries should be allowed to park up at services for free, safe in the knowledge they are parked somewhere safe without fear of being robbed or high jacked. Why the government allow them to rob the general public is completely beyond me. Makes my blood boil

[@marks-0-0]

I'm not sure if the law has changed but it used to be the case that PCN'S were not considered fines legally but rather invitations to pay. You could just ignore the letters but of course people don't want to hear your point because they are usually too straight and scared to test such things.

[@steve2644]

Yes it’s disgusting , it’s not actually the land owners that instigate it , it’s private parking companies approaching such places and offering them incentives to do it! Literally any private bit of parking have been hunted out by these guys now a days!

[@matthewedmondson2713]

Unfortunately that used to be correct, not any more. You could however mask your number plate with tape / crisp packet whatever and it wont register the exit, so no fine @@marks-0-0

[@steve-r-collier]

its a bluff..ive stayed many times over night without paying and they never follow it through

[@tangfastic7075]

Understand how Will has to move on and do different things... but i loved all the stealth camps in the past with the chicken fajitas.

[@Daermos]

Love the back to roots video with good old Mary! Can’t wait to see the start of new build.

[@sbjchef]

It's not stealth if you pay £38, it makes you a victim. you can stay in a Travelodge for£40 with free parking and breakfast

[@sbjchef]

stealth means stopping somewhere maybe you shouldn't and getting away with it, in your case plod showing up and telling you to move on would be a minimum level of risk, otherwise you are just a man in a van

[@CJM527]

You would be a victim with an inevitable £100 fine

[@sbjchef]

@@CJM527 then park somewhere stealthy

[@mattieharris3747]

@sbjchef you are a right plum sounds like you haven't got a clue how he dose this

[@sbjchef]

@@mattieharris3747 I'll have you know I am a well balanced individual with both a left and right plum and I don't have a dose. 😉🙏

[@peakyparttimers9362]

£38! It's cheaper at a campsite with electric hook up 😮

[@c11yan]

Maybe not if you turn up at a campsite 1800 you have to leave by 1100 whilst you get until 1800 plus the three hours at services. So it’s not quite the same.

[@tonytrumble]

Nice to see an ole style stealth camp Will! I pray that you had a great Christmas and New Years with your family and friends!

[@cbd.captures]

Welcome back Mary and Will! So nice to see another stealth camping video! Love all this great content, keep it up man!

[@francollingborn4606]

Nice to see you back in Mary. Love Foresty Forest and of course Rocko. Maybe stay at Cairn Lodge, Scotland. Cost us £10 for the night last February.

[@nlswh]

Nice to see you in a stealthcamp again. Always love your stealth adventures.

[@angeladawn805]

Foresty Forest is the best!!!! You have impeccable taste Will❤

[@corahul]

Love your stealth camping videos . ❤ from india.

[@catherineferguson7388]

Happy new year Will, it’s really nice seeing you camping out in Mary again. That’s a big service station which is constantly busy busy, loved the video Will, hope to see you again soon. Thank you xxxxx

[@Urban57621]

Miss your old stealth camping videos like this in your own van!

[@kenmerriman4112]

back to stealth camping OLD SCHOOL !!! cool I am enjoying it !!

[@YvonneMaughan]

Happy new year Will , nice to see you and Mary back great video as always xx

[@TomBedlammusic]

always blows me away how shite the services are in the UK. And nearly £40!? mental

[@agrooy7737]

Hey Will, I’m so glad that you have done an original stealth video again, I prefer these videos to your reviews of other vans, it’s more authentic when you’re on your own doing your own filming, I also love it when you do your own cooking. If you’re looking for other things to do, why not park up where you get beautiful views and cook up a storm or even get a fire going and cook up a massive steak. Great video though pal.

[@ceecee3488]

Hey Will......hope you had a great holiday break. Missed you terribly. Word to the wise....when going to a new place like the car park......eat what you KNOW.....not what you don't. There is nothing worse than going to a new place....hungry and tired and then not getting something good to eat. That chicken did look sort of icky. Also another word......when you don't know what to watch on your tv......just watch I love Lucy or Andy Griffith show.....that is if you guys have it there! Your van is looking nice and cozy. What a coZy job you have.......though I do know how much work it takes just to get these videos out there.......and we ALL appreciate your hard work. Have a good week coming up!

[@lisaarmstrong3805]

Nice to see you back, awesome😀

[@c11yan]

This isn’t stealth camping as you are allowed to sleep overnight at motorway services as it’s no different to a lorry driver or a van driver etc

[@elchinator]

Just parking over night: 38 pounds. A night at the Ramada Hotel: 41 pounds, parking included...

[@markplenty2631]

I stay at all the motorway services in my galaxy coversion whilst on my travels as it’s cheaper than a campsite at only £13-£15 for 24hrs. I’ve never tried not paying as the ANPR is quite efficient.

[@sanjlakhanpal5017]

So happy you are doing a uk stealth camp bud, i loved the new stuff but also been watching the backlog of stealth camps.

[@sibbaker]

Yes at last will is back love it mate

[@briantheminer]

Occasionally you can still get a travelodge room for the night less than £38 😂 What a rip off

[@jesussamurai8433]

Mav, Steve Wallis, and foresty forest are probably my go to KZbinrs the golden trio.

[@striped.]

started 2024 with a bang, stealth camp video in mary 😍

[@DeepeshSharma-j3g]

My bro came back with old kinds of videos ❤❤

[@aragon77]

As always another great video.Keep your content coming. Will is my man crash. I enjoy all his videos.

[@mikeklinger1712]

Will sounds like that places food service needs an upgrade. Well Will'swhereabouts (power setup), solar car camper(furniture & cook method), & vancity Vanlife (future heat upgrade) have been the best channels for learning about campervan parts! My setup has used elements from all 3

[@Camp-N-Wilddragon]

Miss these videos and I tell you what, your van build series was the best on KZbin (fact). You inspired me so much I only went and converted my own peogeot boxer. Cheers will 👍

[@Wendmera2379]

I really like foresty forest but my favorites are between you & Ragical the unhallowed knight. You two are hilarious.

[@adamcummings4679]

Great to see an old school vid.

[@Richby31]

Please please post more this type of videos

[@GHExploration]

Apart from yourself I love watching Mav, awesome channel he's got too 👌

[@NigelCornell_camping_travel]

I put the underground electric in for the extension on Cobham

[@WGK90]

Just a suggestion, but when you're parked in a busy area, on spotify or yt you can find white noise/calming noises which will negate a lot of the noise of the road, stick that next to your head and you'll have a much better sleep.... before anyone asks yes I am a dad.

[@RighteousBruce]

Foresty Forest is top notch :P

[@chrisshepherd6878]

About time you came back to these videos 😊😊

[@robertkelsow-geall7395]

Forresty is great. Chrome from VanCity VanLife is great as well. Don't forget Chad with LTVL,

[@smeghead1]

Missed your video's buddy glad you are back

[@KPP365]

Wow, First time watching you. Fantastic setup.

[@Vibe69909]

Loved the video. New Subscriber from New York! 👍🏽

[@johnstraw6138]

That’s one of the best services in the country for food. Nando’s, Ramsdens, KFC. Even has a laundry facilities.

[@Matthew-m6c2p]

Wills have you ever thought about purchasing a Bater. For the back of your van for behind the passenger seat and the driver's seat you could do with getting a curtain rail and you need to purchase some very romantic red poppy curtains and all of the fixings you could make your van look more like a HGV with your curtains put up right around your seats that wil stop any one from looking in from your windscreen

[@Yo-ItsYo]

He has fitted camper blinds for the passenger windows and windscreen

[@slap_A_flamingo]

Glad to see you back Will. Hope you're doing well. Mary is looking great as always. Be sticking around for next week's video. Take it easy buddy.

[@iaintinsley3123]

Good to have u back

[@leesmith9299]

at those prices i doubt they mind it you sleep there. is that really "stealth"?

[@achilleswilles]

Sleath camping please have more of these will love these .

[@denisecafferky2248]

Happy New year 🎉

[@Cha0sCarl]

Oh finally stealth camping again things got intresting.

[@mlacson9]

Yay! Mary's back! Prefer this type of content.

[@neu_trino]

You're back - Hoorah!

[@Pugwash.]

We have bad food at many service stations. I think they let it sit under a warm lamp for a few hours before serving. I've only ever filled up with fuel for my motorbike at these places, as I had a smaller tank and the price difference wasn't so alarming. I'm amazed they keep them open.

[@johnshaw8013]

Take your number plates off on the way in and out. My local services gets used as a HGV trailor storage park, as the unit driving them in has different plates to the unit driving them out!

[@thebudgetbackpackers]

Great video Will! Love seeing you do favorites we love. Stealth camping is always fun to watch, thanks for sharing!

[@bigdtailing1950]

Ain't watched the other videos for ages missed these

[@markthomas-bi5gx]

He back happy new year will looking forward to your new vids in 2024

[@lsmith2030]

Man I love forestry forest great channel

[@govardhanreddy7367]

I have missed thit type videos from you. Please continue.

[@BT-xm6ne]

It was nice to see Mary again. I miss that you didn't cook dinner in Mary this time.

[@ProjectCamper]

Classic night in watching foresty forest, bit of grub, i just come back from Scotland ( and past Cobham on the way back to work)and done exactly the same in other places , i just used my show plates on the way in lol, Love you bro ❤❤

[@binniebuilds6643]

I’ve slept there a few times in my Peugeot boxer LWB when I was heading to uni or Cornwall and always used to see lots of people in their campers at the early hours 😅

[@robclague8495]

Travel Trolls are my favourite vlogers. Love your vlogs to, keep up the good work Will.

[@Desmond.TuTu.]

Aaaahh ya arse went 😂 should of seen if you could get away with it 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@johnshaw8013]

Velcro numberplate mounts, pull over on the exit road after the cams to stick them back on! 😂

[@autogleamvaletsful]

That's a great services. The hotel used to be called days in and if you stayed there you could buy vouchers for breakfast in Harry ramsdens cafe. Love the laundry and great showers in there

[@trevorsbarkingmadchannel4501]

Great vlog. God it’s grown a lot since I was last there. Great to see a hub if ev chargers. I’m an ev fan so well pleased to see that too. Best wishes and once again. Great vlog thank u 🙏

[@peterskarratts1834]

Nice to see Mary again , try watching wim,s treasure adventures, he's a magnet fisher , very funny and cool finds, stay safe mate 🤘

[@Jonathanhughes-]

Missed the old stealth camping vids 😊👍💙

[@gavinrussell1338]

Nice to have you bk will 😊

[@wildthinair]

Motorway services have free showers for everyone as a requirement primarily for truck drivers. Normally the shower key is held at one of the shops and you leave your car keys as a deposit. Happy to be proved otherwise

[@live4trucking]

The service stations in GB are a nightmare. We go every week with our trucks to GB and we pay a lot of money to sleep on this nightmare. The showers are dirty, the toilets are dirty and every second month somebody steal about 700-1.000l of diesel and the police even don’t want to come to the station. Really nice system 🤮

[@birminghammotorhomeman]

you are one of my fave youtubers i have a few

[@tammycruz8189]

Happy Blessed Safe New Year 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉Safe Travels Always God Bless Ya'll Mucho Love from your friend in Michigan Tam ❤️ ♥️ 💕

[@Ritarelay]

Stealth camping .. at a place which allows ( for a fee) you to stay.. isn’t stealth??? Or am I missing something?

[@johna6968]

Variety of content is way better than just using other folks campers imo

[@jomukuk1950]

Pre-pandemic I used to 'overnight' here. Great place, better at night/early-hours, when the clubbers hit it going home.

[@jomukuk1950]

Also, with the in-famous Ockham common just up the road [temporarily a junkyard of road works]

[@CerberusVelvet]

I had no idea how much my heart needed a "Will Stealth Camps" video, until I had one. All I need now is for you to build another van............. justsayin

[@michaelodonoghue7464]

Only 10 Minutes from My Childhood home (32 The Street, Ashtead) which I was dragged away from, age 11, in 1967.

[@garethwillett2471]

Sorry Will nothing stealth about this you paid for the park up.

[@raymondallimgham7011]

Great to see you stealth camping in Mary again from Raymond in Glasgow 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@todmeister15]

Glad your back to what I subscribed for… if I’m honest and not a critical comment but I wasn’t a fan of your new direction you took but respect you at least trying and I get your mental health was important

[@EricJimenez-i7u]

And yes I'm a new subscriber so nice to see in your upcoming videos😊

[@sanjlakhanpal5017]

We luv u hanging and stealth camping

[@danieltaylor3755]

Would be interested to know what improvements you would like to make to this van? A bathroom would be tops but space.

[@matthewbonner645]

Really missed these

[@easytvlogs]

It’s so interesting to hear what McDonald’s is like in other countries because in South Africa it’s pretty consistent. Always warm always freshly cooked

[@HolgerJakobs]

Yes, consistently real junk food 😂

[@sammilburn445]

im from the north east and am currently living just south of london so have been doing quite a bit of commuting. leeds skelton (another extra services) has been a frequent stop for me, and now cobham is becoming one too. i have to say, although cobham has a bigger petrol station and more parking, the actual services at skelton feels a lot bigger than cobham

[@Eeeeeeeeeee12345]

How i found your vids one the best 😂🎉

[@lucasboyt7419]

Great to see an old school stealth camp, would have been perfect if you cooked fajitas for dinner

[@simoncoles1870]

Have you done or considered doing an American trip, renting an RV and touring around? I know you got burnt out just doing park ups, this would be a nice change of pace.

[@hammockinparadise]

Cecila Blomdahl who lives on Svalbard, by the arctic circle. Also Max & Occy are two of my favorites, you are definitely also on that list. You’re right there are some massive service plazas here in the U.S. I stayed in one in Kansas with restaurants, dog park, fake palm trees 🌴 😮 and of course a hotel, and truck stop showers, Starbucks the whole deal, quite fun for a night or two with my dog to take a break. Of course it was also summer 😂

[@Ed___1234]

I got a fine from the services on the M11 by stanstead for having a sleep in my car for 3 hours when I was really tired and shouldn’t have been driving. I got the fine chalked off by arguing with them that there is signage all over the country telling us we should take a break and not drive while tired so we shouldn’t be punished for staying safe and taking that advice.

[@soniayoung7531]

Happy New Year Will, better to pay $38 than to get a ticket and pay $100,you really lucked out on the food,thanks for sharing stay safe

[@ColchesterCO3]
