Not just any old horse. Visiting Castle Combe
So it's our final couple of days at Devizes Camping and Caravanning Club Site, Val forgets to get the bacon for breakfast after the excitement of the Westbury White Horse in the previous episode. Dave decides that we will have a stroll along the Kennet and Avon canal , directly adjacent to the Devizes Campsite, and call at The Barge Inn for a spot of breakfast. Dave practices his botanical skills by trying to identify a type of fruit tree.
After a lovely chilled day we plan our final trip out of this adventure to the medieval village of Castle Combe, believed to be the prettiest village in England. It is certainly beautiful with its stone houses, and its meandering stream, where it feels l...

The Horse on Westbury Hill.

We're at Westbury Hill and we visit one of the famous Wiltshire White Horses.We ponder why on earth anyone would want to cut a huge white horse into the chalk hillside so many years ago. Dave lets out about his fear of birds and Val escapes with just one slip on the sloped chalk footpath of the Mid Wilts Way. We then visit the Respect The Range art installation to view the fantastic steel artwo...

We're at Avebury and we are visiting the delightful little village and the standing stones! We're out of the campervan and on the march with Tess by our side to view the ancient stone circles of Avebury. How we wonder, why our ancesters went to so much trouble to erect such huge boulders and earthworks. How on earth did they transport them? We have a quick browse around the picturesque village ...

Oh flippin 'eck, it's a windy one! As our new glamorous voiceover assistant says, we were so windswept in this one that our audio did suffer, so there's a bit more music than usual. But never fear! We've braved the wind, the rugged roads, and even the ocassional pigeon remains to bring you the very best of castles - well, that's how Val tells it anyway! Dunure Castle has stood tall since at lea...

Never mind tomorrow Annie, the sun has come out today! He's got his hat on and so has Dave, so let's hit the road and head for Girvan! We navigate the surprisingly busy mid morning traffic to find ourselves a lovely little parking spot, where we wander our way to a seaside view of Ailsa Craig. You might not have heard of the island, but if you've ever seen the Winter Olympics then you've seen a...
Are There Bears In These Woods? | Autumn Campervan Adventure

If you go down to the woods today you're in for a big surprise... And so are we! We're hitting the road with no Plan B for where we'll be staying, rolling the dice that there'll be room at the metaphorical inn. And for Val's sake, we hope it's only metaphorical bears in these woods too... We don't crack under the pressure, but Dave does wonder if Val's double lunch order was a panic buy. We are...

Buckle up, Sweetheart! We're all set up at Criffel View Caravan Site, and there's an epic walk to Sweetheart Abbey ahead of us. We take a stroll with Tess and ponder what to do about the weather - stick or twist? The next morning, it's brekkie a la Dave, where our taste buds may cause some heated debate - but not quite as heated as that bacon! Nevertheless, it's a thumbs up from Val and off we ...

There's Lochs To Like About Glencoe! | Our Highlands Campervan Adventure

How much!? We forked out £30 for fish and chips in Ullapool, but the experience of these last two weeks has been priceless. Heading south from Clachtoll Beach Campsite, we stop off at Ardvreck Castle. It was historically the site of some very uncharacteristically Highlander treachery, but luckily we find it to be quite welcoming. The Glencoe Orbital Trail is full of nature's nearest and deerest...
