Visiting Our Favourite UK Location - A Visit to Barnard Castle, County Durham

[@richardbarge8077]

Thanks for a great video - it really helped us plan for and enjoy our time in Barnard Castle!

[@TheMcNeillsonWheels]

You’re very welcome! It’s a superb area with lots to do. Definitely recommend including the Bowes Museum, if you have time. Enjoy!

Enjoyed your video. Brought back memories, had to go look through our photos, We were there in 2012 for our silver wedding anniversary. We did the waterfall walk as well. Nice area thank you for sharing your visit.

[@TheMcNeillsonWheels]

That's awesome to hear! I am so pleased that it brought back some nice memories for you and inspired you to look for your photographs. Pictures and film are so wonderful for bringing memories back to the front of our minds. Certainly for me, doing videos for KZbin really helps me remember what we've done!

[@Welshandproud1970]

Need to go here. Looks lovely.

[@colinrimmer789]

Thanks for sharing guys I’ve never been to Barnard Castle it looks lovely. Definitely need to visit, 😁❤️

[@TheMcNeillsonWheels]

Wholly recommend it. It's a stunning area. If you like cycling, the cycle way between Cotherstone and Middleton is a fantastic day out. The Bowes museum is similarly wonderful. A great area!

Love that part of the World, too!

[@TheMcNeillsonWheels]

Yea it absolutely great! It amazes me that it still feels relatively unspoilt, which is incredible given its recent media exposure!

Been following your videos for a while now and really enjoy them. We've recently purchased a trailer tent to start getting away as a family more often and I've just ordered one of your travel diary's so we can record our adventures. Thank you!

[@TheMcNeillsonWheels]

Ah that's excellent news! I think I recognise your name from when I was packing orders recently, so that figures! Hope you like and enjoy the journal. It's entirely our own creation and we're very proud of what we have created. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it! Happy travels!

As I said, Yes it was worth the wait (as always)

[@TheMcNeillsonWheels]

Ha ha! Thanks, you're far too kind!

[@stephenspencer1020]

Another great video

[@TheMcNeillsonWheels]

Thanks for your lovely comment. I really love the area and wanted to portray my passion for it in this video. Hopefully, I achieved that!

[@durhamcaravaners]

We love pecknell farm . A very beautiful site and well maintained.. Barny is one of our fav areas , even if i work that way a lot.. lol ..

[@TheMcNeillsonWheels]

Glad you feel the same way. The owner is a nice lady too. Would love to be having a swim in Tees right now.... Sadly, we're in Birmingham currently!

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Really enjoyed your Vlog. Barnard Castle was new to us last year and we walked from the site like you did but got a little lost and ended up at the prison LOL. We didn't get locked up though... phew :)) Trev

[@TheMcNeillsonWheels]

Ended up at the PRISON! That would be an adventure to recall in future! I can't think of the prison you mean. There's a Young Offenders Institute, which is possibly what you found, but I don't recall a prison... Unless... Ah ha! You were in the bowels of the castle, held captive for a ransom! I feel a story coming on!!!

[@PoshcatsCamping]

@@TheMcNeillsonWheels yes I think it was the YOI place. High fences and no drones allowed 😆 it was an adventure 🤣

[@iancampbell7684]

Another great video and love the drone footage . Curious what drone are you using as just bought one and keen to try but so nervous at the thought. Also love the merchandise and going to look at you product page too. Keep enjoying.

[@TheMcNeillsonWheels]

Hi Ian, Thanks for your kind words. I am flying a DJI Mini 2, which is my first ever drone. I had no previous experience flying drones and have only had it since February, I think? Like you, I started off as incredibly nervous about it, but have grown in confidence with it. Only had 1 near miss with the top of a summit marker! I opted to buy the DJI Care Protect, which is a sort of insurance against damage to the drone or total loss. I don't recall how much it was, but it wasn't much. The Mini 3 is out now, but I'm happy sticking with what I have already. Hope this helps!

[@iancampbell7684]

@@TheMcNeillsonWheels well you are comfortable with it by the quality of the videos so keep up the flying and the excellent vlogs. Yes it does re dji as they seem to be the best but I better save up my pennies as I want the 3 but be a few months yet.

[@theellmersadventures]

Hello to you all great video we have just got back from Barnard castle but we stayed at a place called glen camping loveley little site for £10 per night we went on 29th and went to low force falls and didn't know you can walk to high force so thanks for that we will now be going lol I also got it all on vlog for our channel lol but now I know you can walk there be even better next time as we there for 3 nights at glen camping on 22nd can't wait lol all the best take care love to you from Jamie Tina Andrew and Harvey (the Ellmers adventures)

[@TheMcNeillsonWheels]

Hi Folks, What a steal at £10 / night! Yea, I love the BC area. So many special memories there from my childhood. Have you walked to the Fairy Cupboards before?

[@theellmersadventures]

@@TheMcNeillsonWheels no but you gave us some useful info on one of your vids as we went to low force falls but diddint know you can walk to high force so going to be doing that as going back to same campsite and 3 nights so can get round more places lol

[@wacka.]

keen viewers will recognise Low Force from such movies as "1917" and from the Netflix TV series "The Witcher" series 2 episode 7.
