Hello and thanks for visiting Touring for Life
We are John and Barbara and we live in South East England.
Our Channel is dedicated to touring and exploring the coast and countryside in our van.
We have recently retired and have started a new chapter in our lives. We bought our Elddis motorhome in 2018 which has opened up a whole new world of discovery, travel and adventure. Combined with our love of wildlife, nature and photography, I think we've found the perfect match.
We watch RUclips videos as a source of inspiration for future places to visit and we hope our channel may also inspire you with your future travel plans. We invite you to join us as we tour the country, starting with the places we love and know best in the UK. We will share campsites, park-ups and places that you wouldn't want to miss along the way.
So put your feet up and give us a try.

ENGLAND'S LAKE DISTRICT, CUMBRIA -Buttermere via Newlands Pass from the Troutbeck Head Campsite
England’s Lake District has been a favourite location of ours for as long as we can remember, yet we have never filmed it, so of course we had to go back and film it for you. We travelled in April when it was fairly quiet and we managed to capture some spectacular scenery during our 4 week trip. We hope you’ll tune in to our channel to see this beautiful part of the UK.
We travelled to the Lake District in our Elddis motorhome, towing our little car as many of the roads in this region can be narrow and steep. Travelling this area is certainly possible with smaller motorhomes/vans but larger motorhomes would definitely present more of a challenge in some areas.

It's a lovely place to live !
No-one and I mean no-one.....does these films better. Superb from the first second to the last
Thank you so much, your comment means a lot to us. It is so nice to know that other people enjoy our videos. Thank you.
Thank you for these tours of Outer Hebrides. I know the Islands well and just loving following your tour.
Thank you for your comment, so glad you enjoyed the videos. The Islands are magical and we hope to visit them again in the future.
Another high quality video. What a wonderful way to end the year. Thank you.
Thank you, really appreciate your comment
What a gorgeous journey. Really enjoyed the car and drone footage. Cheers.
So glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for commenting.
You've done well, thanks for sharing. Beautiful part of the UK.
Thank you for your comment, still more to come from this lovely part of the country!
Excellent series...well done
Thank you so much - really appreciate you commenting.
Benbecula, not Benbecular.
We apologise for this error and thank you for pointing it out to us.
Nice series. I came across you doing my research for my trip to the OH in May 2025. Could you share what time of the year you were there and what the temperatures were like (I saw people swimming) 🙂 Many thanks!
Thank you. Yes there were people in the water whilst we were there although the water was pretty cold! The air temperature was around 20C.
I am have watched part 1-3 by now... It seems you were extremely lucky with the weather up to this point. May I ask what time of the year you were there? What temperatures did you encounter? We are planning to go 2025 beginning of May!
Thank you for watching, we hope you enjoyed the videos. We travelled end of August into early September. The locals informed us the weather had not been good before we arrived but the sun came out upon our arrival, so yes we were extremely lucky with the weather. Apart from a few cloudy days whilst we were on the Isles of Uist we had sunshine most of the time. I can't say it was particularly hot but it was warm enough for shorts and tee-shirts!
Beautiful capture thank you so much
So glad you enjoyed our video - your comment is really appreciated, thank you.
I love your films ❤
Thank you for your comment, so glad you enjoyed the video. Cornwall is such a beautiful county with so many wonderful places to see.
Where did you see the deer?
The deer were in the fields opposite the Black Knowles Campsite entrance. There are not many bridges where you can cross the river and get to these fields. Be careful as the ground can be very boggy - suggest wellies!
Where is the ambience not the music you have ruined a very nice video.
Beautiful place
What a wonderful collection of videos of Harris. Enjoyed them all. Absolutely inspiring how you put them altogether with great music! Well done and many thanks !🇨🇦
Thank you for your lovely comment, so glad you enjoyed our series on The Outer Hebrides. Perhaps one day you might visit these beautiful Islands for yourself! We have yet to visit your beautiful country someday!
Cordia Centers
Les fleurs orange sont sans doute des crocosmia.
Thanks for letting us know the type of flower.
I was on Vatersay in 1988 on a biology trip. No causeway then we went across from Barra on a small boat. Camped in tents. Was an awesome experience.
They are beautiful islands
Just found your videos. They are of excellent quality and so enjoyable with no verbal but great music . Keep them coming. 🇨🇦
Thank you for your lovely comment
The Wonderful, Wonderful GOWER...
How sometimes we forget how beautiful and wonderful the many, many things we take for granted...
Awesome videos! I've watched all the Cornish ones and I'm definitely going down there again to go to all the places I love, plus new places I've never been to. Thanks so much!😊
Thanks for your comment. It's so good to hear that our video's have shown you new places to explore! There are so many wonderful places in Cornwall to visit.
Breathtakingly beautiful camerwork. Made me swell too. Touches the natural beauty of the whole planet and our humble place in it. Thank you.
Thank you for your lovely comment, so glad you enjoyed the video. The Outer Hebrides is such a beautiful and inspiring place. You feel at one with nature.
We have all seen videos of the road ahead ,ten year old could do it.
So beautiful Sis, the stone circle was amazing to see, and I had never heard of before... the water in the lakes was crystal clear and I felt a little urge to go paddling. another wonderful video of yet a great area I have not been to for many years! magical ..again
Thank you Sis - The Lake District is beautiful and we are so glad you enjoyed the video. We were lucky with the weather and conditions and can't wait to share with you more spectacular scenery from this stunning area.
Beautiful music for this place
Thank you very much for your comment.
Great video! Good pic of you both too! Thanks!
Thank you for your comment, so glad you enjoyed the video... a lot more still to come from our Lake District tour!
@@touringforlife9806 looking forward to that!!
A huge thank you to everyone who made this trimendous video, l have thurly enjoyed it, and the views are simply magnificent.
Thank you for your lovely comment....a lot more still to come from our Lake District tour!
Lovely production and really enjoyed that. Thank you so much for sharing it. May I ask what drone do you use please ?
Thank you for your comment. Glad you enjoyed the video, the Outer Hebrides is such a lovely place to be.The drone I use is the DJI Mini 3 pro, small and very light weight (250gm), easily fits into my camera bag.
@@touringforlife9806 exactly the drone I was thinking about buying and your vlog just made it a whole lot easier for me. Thank you.
Excellent video! Thanks!
Thanks for your comment, glad you enjoyed the video.
Really enjoy all your very professional videos! Great venues, music and amazing camera work (ground & drone). Thank you!
It is wonderful to know you enjoy our videos. Thank you so much, we really appreciate your comment.
I have today your videos are some of the very best I have watched, you seem to have been to all the places we have and love them. Our videos are never as good as yours and you just bring the memories flooding back. Thank you so much for the pleasure you give and I love the fact you show the locations without loads of facetime of the person filming. Thank you again and keep up your superb work
It is wonderful to know you enjoy our videos. Thank you so much, we really appreciate your comment. We hope to go back to those beautiful islands again soon.
whats the stupid noise for ?
The orange flowers on Barra look like they could be Montbretia
Thank you.
hi may I ask what is the music that plays after the intro at aproximately 0.57 seconds into the video many thanks :)
The intro music is 'Big Sur' by Roy Edwin Williams followed by 'Elm Lake' by Elm Lake.
@@touringforlife9806 many thanks much appreciated
another wonderful journey that you have taken us on... such picturesque scenery and tranquility!! really enjoyed the natural sounds and to see you both just relaxing on the journey Lillian XX
Thank you for your comment, glad you enjoyed the video.
Absolutely fantastic and thank you so much for sharing this. Huge thumbs up.............👍
Thank you for your lovely comment. Barra and Vatersay are beautiful places, so glad you enjoyed the video.
Alba mo chridhe ❤ Respectful tourists/people please. Too many however will spoil the magic.
Respect for the things in life that really matter ❤
My eyes welled up watching this forty years ago I spent two weeks here on my bike and in my tent. Heaven is a place.
So glad this video brought back happy memories for you...it is such a magical place. Thank you for commenting, it means a lot to us.
I took a wrong turn on a sunday and fortunately found the temple cafe. What a nice place at the head of an amazing bay.
Beautiful ✨🙏👌
So glad you enjoyed the video.
Idyllic! Very nicely done And nice to see shots of the flowers etc interspersed with the footage - they look marvellous too
Thank you, so glad you enjoyed our video. I believe we were there April/May time when the beautiful spring flowers were everywhere.
Stunning camera work as always ❤ thank you for sharing - pier cottage is now on my list..just need to find a week to stay there 😮
Thank you, we are so glad you are enjoying our videos. I hope you make it to Pier Cottage, it's such a great location.
White text is difficult to see on phone size screen but beautiful video! We are heading here in the fall thank you for this really comprehensive video!
Thank you for commenting and thank you for letting us know about the text colour on a phone size screen, we will look into changing this for future videos . We are so glad you enjoyed our video and found it helpful. We wish you a wonderful trip in the fall with good weather.
I know the area well and a happy place for me. It's such a shame the steps at Bedruthan are closed with no access to the amazing beach and have been closed for a long time. Maybe one day they will re open them and we can enjoy the beach once more.
Thank you for your comment. I was on the beach a few years ago watching a sunset, sadly without the steps there is no easy way down to this lovely beach.
I would love to "can your music' so I could sleep at night. Beautiful. Your videos are absolutely gorgeous. I don't mind someone narrating now and then, but it's nice just to watch and listen to soothing music. Beautiful.
Thank you for your lovely comment, it means a lot to us. So glad you enjoyed the videos.
It's been years since I visited the Lake District but definitely going to have to visit again soon. Some of those reflections are stunning ❤
You really must go back, it's a stunning place!
Stunningly beautiful part of the world, well captured. Thank you.
Many thanks, so glad you enjoyed it.
