AVOID this campsite or you might DAMAGE your caravan!! - Sandford Parkdean
Просмотров 23 тыс.Месяц назад
We spent 3 nights at the end of July 2024 at Parkdean Sandford in Dorset, staying on the Star - Meadows pitch, this is a fully service pitch. We paid £260 for the 3 nights which is expensive but we do appreciate it is summer holidays. We was very unhappy with our pitch, it seemed to be raised up on a platform. That made getting the caravan on the pitch very hard with out scraping the bottom of ...

In our last trip away after we had set the caravan up we turned on the hot water on and it kept tripping the fuse box out,. After some investigation we found the heater element on our Truma water heater tank had failed. In this video I will show you how I replaced the element.

We are off to clumber park in Nottinghamshire - no WiFi there too and I refuse to pay for it!
We used the free club WiFi no good and even the paid one was the same. Hope you have a lovely time at climber park who needs Internet when you got the great outdoors!
Nice to see you guys back! That sausage thing you had looked yummy lol, look forward to your next vid, take care ✌️
Thank you 😁 definitely good to be back and it was very yummy, we will have a few vlogs out this week from the motorhomes & caravan show 👍
Smashing couple. Good fun watching and ive learned from your video. I love a bit of bingo and a pint too 🍺🍺 cheers guys .
Thank you very much 😁 even though we haven’t anything big on bingo we always do it at a Parkdean 😂
That sausage dinner looked well tasty well-done clare
Thank you 😁 hopefully next time we can make it on the Cadac and have it as skewers
It’s dangerous going to the NEC, you could come home with a new caravan 😂. Must say, Chapel Lane is one of our favourite sites, despite the road. You have Beckets Farm up by the round a bout that sells top quality produce and if you show your CAMC membership card you get a 10% discount. It’s walkable too. The Wardens are some of the nicest in the Network. You can get into Birmingham City Centre by train from Whitlocks End straight through to Snow Hill. Enjoy the NEC
😂 I was close 26k for a caravan which we liked guy said they had 5 left for a price of 19k I was tempted, road wasn’t to bad maybe in the summer with the windows open may cause you an issue. It’s a shame we didn’t get chance to look around the area but I am sure we will be back for other nec trip soon, thanks for all the info we will keep that in mind for when we are at chapel lane next 👍
Hi guys that site is very similar layout with trees facilities & reception as Huntersmoon wareham
Oh ok haven’t visited huntersmoon, to be honest didn’t really like all the trees but that’s just because of the time of year lol in the summer we probably like it for a bit of shade
We have joined MHCC (motor home and caravan club) as well as CACC (camping and caravan club) - we will try both before next payment due - does anyone recommend anywhere else? Would like to support independent sites but as we are 61 and nearly 60 we like full services pitches too 🤔
Most commercial sites have fully serviced pitches that can be cheaper than the CAMC’s fully serviced pitches 🙄
We are only members of the MHCC did look at the CACC at the NEC show this week but think we will wait till April now, we have stayed on fully serviced CL sites before plenty out there, we usually figure out where we want to go then use Google to research the campsites
Hello you two ! Off to clumber tomorrow (so close to us) but I’m going to tow for the first time - hubby seems nervous 😱🤦♀️In all fairness if anything “should” happen then we can both tow regardless 👍
Hi 👋 we hope you have a lovely time away, well done for trying out the towing I am sure it will go absolutely fine, it’s really good idea if you can both tow like you said, no chance of getting Claire to tow at the moment though 😂
Call them wile your setting up
Didn’t know at the time but they want you to go back so you can pick up your key card for the barrier
@CaravanTrails yea call them tell them what pitch your on and walk there when doing a campsite review 😉
unfortunately due to technical issues this video has gone out 3 days late but we hope you still enjoy it 👍
I'm very near billing Aqua drome in Northamptonshire, and I'm also new to caravaning myself
Billing would be a great to go and test your caravan out, if you haven’t done so already I did enjoy my one night there but think I give it other go in the summer
Well it was nice to meet you today at the NEC. Adrian and hazel
Really nice to meet you too! Hope you enjoyed the rest of your day at the show
Get a motor mover
Only planning on keeping it a few years so not really worth spending the money, but our next one will definitely have one 👍
Sorry to hear about your accident, glad your on the mend. Look after yourself
Thank you ☺️ not far off about 90% fit now
Nice to see you back keep the video coming 👍
Thank you ☺️ and yes we will be 👍
You can pick a mifi portable Internet dingle from any phone company and have WiFi make sure it's unlimited Internet just a. Suggetion 😊
We may have a look while we are at the caravan and motor home show but we have just been using our phone and most of the time it works fine 👍
New to caravans would be excellent- our “leaky Luna” has damp but so does our little cottage 😂 never had a van before, we are nearly 60 yrs and it’s easy to get caravan fatigue. The main thing is the battery. If it’s in storage what happens if it goes flat?
With the battery in the spring usually April time I will put the battery back in the caravan then come end of October I will take it out and take it home and leave it inside the house or otherwise if you leave it in the caravan the cold will just kill your battery
@@CaravanTrails thankyou
Absolutely loving this channel - so down to earth. We are gonna check and reseal our windows - saw someone use a wooden drinks stirrer to give it a neater finish.
Thank you very much glad your enjoying our channel and videos, I am going do a bit of research and make a video on it hopefully it will help some people out
Scary time for you 😱
Yeah was a bit lucky all ok now ☺️
Wish i could reverse like that ...i find it so stressful
It’s all about taking your time and practice, little movements on the steering wheel as bigger ones your more likely over steer and have to start again, keep practising and your get there 👍
Lee Pop it round the workshop and I’ll show you how to seal it properly.
That would be so helpful, I will pop in Friday early afternoon for a chat 👍
Got a feeling there might be a modern interior coming curtesy of a wrap. 🤫
😂 I couldn’t possibly say, but your on the right track 😁
Ridiculous price, particularly when you get a pitch like that! They are clearly tryingvto getcas many pitches on there as they regardless. I dont know what the facilities are like but that price is more than double what I pay at a great newly refurbished site in N Wales forxa fully services pitch. That is just a rip-off.
Your absolutely right! I said to Claire if they took out every other pitch it wouldn’t have been so bad but big company just all about the money I am afraid, to be honest facilities I.e toilet and washing up area very old and definitely needed updating
We are going to the NEC on Friday - looking forward to it.
Hope you have a great day and don’t spend to much 😂
look forward to your new series, keep up the good work
Thank you ☺️
Thank God you are OK I have missed your videos be safe
Yeah pretty much all good now thanks mate 👍
Glad you're ok, for the window reseal the top and silicone spray the seals, helps to keep them soft so they can seal better 👍
Thanks mate, the plan is I think I am going have to do all the windows and have a good look at the roof as well, I have some of that silicon spray so I will do that thanks for the tip 👍
Glad your nearly fully recovered, don’t be afraid of posting some of your biking antics you would be surprised how many bikers caravan, we use ours for following BSB we do Cadwell, Oulton you would be surprised how many caravan and motorhomes attend these meetings. More biking content please 👍
This was a 2 day private track day at Cadwell and there was a few caravans and motorhomes people had come up in, I know what you mean been to a few BSB and seen quite a few caravans. Not sure if Claire is going to agree with a more biking content though 😂 I will c what I can do next year 😉
Never good to come off a bike , glad you are fixed , how's the bike , Chapel Lane is a good site , not stopped there as we only live 10 mins away , leave early to get to the NEC it's not far but the road gets busy first thing , not going this time but will be watching a few vlogs , enjoy
Do you know what the bike isn’t bad at all few marks here and there I definitely came off worse 😂
Welcome back, stay safe
Thank you ☺️
We are going Wednesday morning NEC
Hope you have a good time 👍 keep an eye out on the community post as we trying to sort out an extra day and that will be the Wednesday if we can
Glad you've recovered ok. Sounds like you'll have the cleanest caravan at the storage yard 😄 welcome back.
Thank you ☺️ hopefully because at the moment it’s the dirtiest 😂
Great to see your back gary stay with the caravaning bugger the bikes they hurt 😂 make sure you get the sealant right in behind that window frame
You sound like Claire 😂 but your right caravanning is a lot less painful. Need to go down there on a dry day (god nos when that will be lol) and going remover as much as the old sealant as possible then use some 522
@@CaravanTrails 😂😂
mega slay !
Glad to see you back and okay. We wondered where you both were. 😃
Thank you it’s good to be back 😄 I said to Claire bet people wondered what happen to us especially as the community post got deleted somehow 😂
@@CaravanTrails keep up with the good content now your back fit and well. We really enjoy your vlogs
@@thebailliesadvent7826 thank you very much 😁 we will not be leaving it so long next time we away next weekend for the nec so we will have a few videos for you about that 😁
Just checked my gas heater. When turned high it makes a gurgle noise. Do you reckon that's normal. It only does it over 5
Hard to tell with out hearing it but don’t sound normal but anything to do with gas I would always get a professional to have a look, if it’s due for a service it should all get checked for you then
Thanks I'll get it checked
Glad you’re ok I bet that was scary 😢 we’re going to the NEC on the Saturday which will be busy but due to work commitments we had no choice. The Trudgians did a video on washing your caravan at the storage site. They used a manual pump pressure sprayer its works really well and having used this method I can honestly say it did a great job.
We did try and stay away from the weekend was quite lucky we could both get the midweek off work, didn’t no if Tuesday was as busy as weekend? I have brought something very similar I am now just waiting for the rain to stop so I can test it out
Glad to see you fit and well again with no lasting problems. When you seal your window, if you can take the offending windows out, clean them up and use white Sikaflex to seal them back in. Sikaflex is a sealant that doesn’t go hard so as your panels flex while travelling, the Sikaflex will continue to bond. It’s pricey but good. Whatever you do, Don’t use a pressure washer on it, you will break the seals and suffer damp. You could turn your rear lounge into a bedroom so easily. Whilst at the Nec you will see people selling made to measure mattresses 👍 Enjoy the show, sure Tuesday will be fine.
Thank you I know the right way would be to take all the windows out and clean them up and reseal, not sure how confident I would be in doing that I was just going to clean up what I can and get rid of the old sealant the best I can then use some sikaflex 522 We sometimes leave the rear lounge up if it’s just the 2 of us but we do like eating there as well thanks for the info on the windows 👍
Great to see you back
Thank you ☺️
Gary always crack off the wheel nuts then torque them up, that's the proper way to do it p.s. Don't go to the show you'll end up with a new van😂😂😂😂😂.
I haven’t lost a wheel in 40 years doing it my way 😂 Claire has given me strict instructions I am not allowed to buy a new caravan 🤨 (we will see) 😂
Good your ok buddy! Nice to see you back filming,look forward to your next one, stay safe mate 👍
Thanks mate 👍 good to be back looking forward to next week now
Great to see you back 😊
Thanks! 😊
Glad to see your back caravaning after your accident. Fingers crossed no more accidents. I expect Claire was worried sick when she got the telephone call 🤗
Thank you ☺️ caravanning seems a lot more safer Claire will be happy if I just stick to that I think
