Love your reviews they are exactly what we want to hear, no mucking about. Shame about the noisy neighbours, had that at Snetterton circuit last month, the kids were kicking a football around at half two in the morning and the music stopped about three. Can't do anything about it when you're on your own, don't fancy flat tyres or scratches! Great T-shirt, take care.

We're going to be getting a camper soon (probably MWB transit), and we want to find the good places! I've started your reviews from the beginning, and it's great to see how you have improved and grown in confidence as a presenter. Keep going - and come over your Wales soon!

Hi Ben! Another great video, cheers! I’ve only found you in the last couple of weeks, and I’ve been catching up with the back catalogue as well as watching a few of the recent ones, really enjoying them cheers! We’re from South Norfolk so all fairly local 👍🏻 Just to say, we’ve been caravanning about 15 years now, and before that I used to go with my parents as a child. We are members of the Caravan & Motorhome Club as we use several of their sites both around Norfolk and across the country, and it gives us access to their cheap insurance & breakdown cover. Also, one of the main reasons we’re members is it lets you book their 5-pitch Certified Locations, or CLs. These are little independently owned sites on farms, or on people’s meadows etc and they are dotted round the whole country. As a minimum they have a water tap and toilet emptying, but some are all-singing all-dancing with shower blocks, wifi, electric hook up etc. We’re just back from one next to Wayford Bridge Inn near Stalham, a lovely little private meadow with electric hook up and it cost us £18 a night for 3 nights over Bank Holiday, which is bloody good. I know you don’t use electric hook up, and the non-electric CLs can be had for £10 a night throughout the year. Most of these have a good description on the website, and an email and phone number for the owners, and offer good walks etc. Just thought that might be worth looking into for you, especially after watching your Sandringham video! It costs us £63 a year, but we’ve found if you have several weekends at £15 a night you’re soon saving. Plus like I say, there’s never more than 4 other pitches there with you, and being members they’re generally respectful. Anyway, just something to maybe look into if you’re interested. Thanks again, and have a beer on me buddy 🍻 All the best, Simon.

I’m really glad you enjoy the videos. I have considered joining in the past as I do see the advantages. There is nothing worse than being on a long road trip and being turned down from a site because you are not a member and the small little sites would be great but I do feel that for the channel doing the cls sites would limit the audience appeal as not everyone will be able to go there. I do understand the appeal for joining and my only issue with them as stated in my woodhill vid is that they overcharge non members. I might join one day . It is something I have considered but at the min I quit like doing the small independent sites. Hope you had a great time in stalham . Thanks for watching and thanks for the beer . Keep living the dream in your caravan mate 👍🍻🚐

@@Bongoben Cheers buddy. Yeah, I can see how they wouldn’t be ideal for the videos and a lot of the audience.
