[@bunnydaduk]

Good watch Steve. I think you fell on your feet with the pitch/destination. It's a lovely part of the country. It's around 2 hours from Newcastle, so it's far enough away to constitute a night away. Keep them coming. Thanks for sharing

[@stevebutler7156]

Watch this space I enjoyed it that much I’m on a return trip next week with a few of the Lads on Bikes this time 👍

[@margeryharper7837]

That's amazing!

I’m thinking of popping up on the bike next week maybe hmmm 🤔

[@simongowers3140]

Just found your channel Steve, and immediately subscribed, what a fantastic find, bith this channel was for me, and that farmer for you! Im only in Oswaldtwistle, and this kind of field is EXACTLY the out of season camp i look for. Does the farmer have a website or facebook page to contact him on?

[@stevebutler7156]

Hi Simon thanks for watching and subscribing, much appreciated. I must admit not done any new vids for a bit life sometimes gets in the way. Anyway the campsite was a pop up one I found by accident. If you have a look at the couple of other vids I did there I think I posted the details up, and there was a sign when I drove in I think if you pause it. ATB Steve 👍

[@simongowers3140]

@stevebutler7156 Thanks for the reply Steve. Il take a look, whikst I'm watching your other vids. Cracking watches, right up my street. Thanks again.

[@hutchinsonsadventures4678]

[@robertcanning1888]

Watched it again . You won a watch there . Ide say mid week only . Brilliant peaceful place for a peacefull few days . Cold beers and a book . Lol okay a sound like a bore . 🤣

[@stevebutler7156]

No your dead right pal, 😎👍

[@Fell_Wanderer]

I didn't know about this place Steve, we rang up and they said it was £25 a night for vehicle/tent and 4 people. Not bad for peak season camping in the middle of the Lake District.

[@stevebutler7156]

It’s Brilliant I know it’s not our usual roughing it routine but the lakes and a great view. I’m up there again with a couple of the lads on bikes on Monday when are you going ?

[@Fell_Wanderer]

@@stevebutler7156 We are going sunday for one night so might bump into you before we leave Monday morning.

[@stevebutler7156]

@@Fell_Wanderer I’ll probably be about 2 ish if I’m honest. Would have liked to have met for a chat 👍

[@Fell_Wanderer]

@@stevebutler7156 Campers have to leave by 12 but there will be other times, I'm sure I'll bump into you at some point in the future. Ive recently bought a Citroen Berlingo XL so have been watching your van videos for tips. Im camping with the family and tomorrow is our first trip in the new car. I won't be sleeping in it though, I'm bivving up the fells and hopefully upload in about 1 weeks time.

[@stevebutler7156]

@@Fell_Wanderer Have a great trip pal, certainly a scorcher. I’m currently sat in the garden chillin trying to get my arse in gear to pack my stuff up for tomorrow. Glad you found the campsite. The owner told me he owns most of the land round there, about 800 acres so any out of season wild camping trips to give him a call. Look forward to your next vid 😃👍 Ps I’ve just invested in a Drone DJI Mini 2 great bit of kit. Ordered off Argos clicked and collected, thought the box was a bit big? Opened it up at home there was 4 inside 😂😂 (you buy one you get 3 free)

[@rob16268]

Good one! Cheers

[@davidsanderson1891]

Hi Steve. Wow you struck gold there mate. Hope it stops like that brilliant. Well Done to the land owner. Old dave.

[@stevebutler7156]

Thanks Dave😎👍

[@daveshaw1514]

looking great just my kind of camping . was that 25 quid a night.

[@stevebutler7156]

Yes it was great, worth the £25 in my opinion 👍

[@grimwulf8547]

Hi steve. love ur videos. If i ask nicely can you give me a link for those magnets with hooks that are strong enough to hold the tarp up? What a brilliant idea

[@stevebutler7156]

They are strong but as I found out bit of a strong breeze start sliding around, they are called wukong off Amazon 👍

[@TonyKitchen471]

That's a gem of a campsite £25 a night cheap for the Lakes.

[@stevebutler7156]

I know I’m back again tomorrow for a night on the bike with a few of the lads £20 bike and tent 😎👍

[@richmanbad]

You could throw straps over the van roof and peg them down for you tarp

[@sophiegreen2802]

Hi Steve can you tell me what the camp site is called please it looks perfect for me.

[@Amos1965]

If you stop the video as he's entering the field you'll just be able to make out on the board it's Newlands Valley Campsite 👍🏻

[@sophiegreen2802]

Thank you steve

[@charlesreale1394]

Ayup Steve another great video, looks really nice place. Can you tell me the name of the site please as I would like to have a couple of nights away with the wifey ? Thanks 👍🏻 Charles

[@stevebutler7156]

If you pause the vid on the sign on the way in 👍 Thanks for watching have a good trip 😎

[@charlesreale1394]

I did try to pause but can't make out the name can you please tell us ?

[@adamosliff1610]

I cant work out the name of the site, anyone help?

[@shot2x]

Whats the name of the campsite mate?

[@stevebutler7156]

Hi if you see when I pull in there’s a sign, it was a pop up campsite last year 👍

[@garyclifton2180]

That looks amazing Stephen

[@stevebutler7156]

Thanks Gary it was 👍

[@tinac7921]

He will give you key if u clean up after u. I have pop up 5 litre with lid put a compostable bag and paper in it if ur stuck. U can buy a mini shower 25 pound is expensive if u don’t have use of facilities. Get a bucket bbq from b&q only £8 or ten we have a uv zip up beach tent to shade us. Get a solar powered usb power station. I’ve also got a power pack from Halfords better than the power packs u see I’ve got plug tyre pump usb light I got it for 75 in sale I always take my own shower spray and wipes before I use there toilets also if you get some none stick foil and potatoes and oil them wrap um up pop um straight on bbq. Take some fly spray and rub urself down with oil mix and lavender or citrus therapy oil that will keep flys away always stay away from water that’s where bugs are

[@Halloweenkieran]

Cool video Stephen 👍👍👍

[@stevebutler7156]

Thanks K 👍

[@lammy1100]

Hi Steve Where can I find this site, do you have email address Brilliant find and brilliant video

[@stevebutler7156]

Hi If you have a look at the bit where I pull into the campsite there’s a sign. It might have just been a pop up campsite last year tho 👍

[@lammy1100]

Thanks for reply Also great idea with the tarp , will definitely use that Now subscribed to you and looking forward to following your adventures

[@davidfirth6535]

Where is it?

[@stevebutler7156]

It’s in the Lake District not far from Keswick 👍

[@marksadventures3889]

You've landed on your feet there Steve lad. Van looks good too. Chicken dinner

[@stevebutler7156]

Thanks Mark yes winner winner 👍

[@2e0txe]

£25 for one night ? Yikes!

[@stevebutler7156]

Worth every penny in my opinion 😎👍

[@garyclifton2180]

You should give farmers number out

[@zjjdskjkfjkfkdsjfkjasbdfjkasbd]

I've got a normal van but inside it has a camping conversion, I'm a bit nervous about being rejected from campsites as I've heard they don't accept builders vans, apparently they need additional windows and a side awning / zip on tent combo? i've yet to sleep in it, it doesn't bother me, it seems to blow many peoples minds that you would want to, id just rather it was minimal and mobile rather than a convoluted camp simply to put others at ease that your not homeless, a criminal or a pervert... thoughts?

[@stevebutler7156]

To be honest the campsites I’ve stayed on I haven’t had a problem with, and other trips have been on the wild side. I’ve now sold The connect and I’ve recently purchased a new Transit Custom Campervan. Video on the way, enjoy your time in the Van just make the most of it. ATB Steve 😃👍
