- This kind of Van Life is not welcome here anymore.. but... (Anglesey and North Wales)
This week we are still exploring the Isle of Anglesey. With no overnight parking signs and wild camping bans becoming the norm here at nearly every park up, stealth camping on the island was definitely tough. If that's the kind of van life you like then this Island may not be the right place for you, however, if coastal scenery, quaint villages, and an abundance of wildlife is your thing, then don't hesitate to visit.
Our road trip around the coast continues and we even take a boat trip out to puffin Island, as well as find the most magical red squirrel forest which also made home to the cutest little surprise!
We'd always seen fantastic images and footage of Anglesey, and to be honest its lived up to our expectations, we wasn't expecting camping to be so tricky though, with campsite prices rising at a rapid rate and more and more clamp downs on wild camping park ups, perhaps this is the way van life in the UK is heade. We certainly hope not, and as you will see, if you look hard enough, you will find some amazing spots to spend the night in a van, with our last park up in Snowdonia in North Wales being particularly special!

Hi as a resident of Anglesey, I know there is a reason regarding overnight camping. The island has had a huge issue with the worst type of traveller. Alot of rubbish, damage. Our island is beautiful and we wish to keep it that way. Holiday makers are always welcome
The "worst type of traveller" can in fact be the holiday makers! Scotland has had a similar problem since the end of lockdown and everyone and his brother building a campervan!
They've reported rubbish, damage, loos emptied in hedgerows, waste water released into the street and no end of problems. Its the obvious, "it's easier for me to dump it than take it to the tip" brigade. Theyve come down a lot on wild camping since.
It’s a shame for sure but totally understandable, we loved it there and will definitely go back
Quite agree some people make it worse for all the others and then there is nowhere to park up quietly.
Love the wildlife you put in your videos, how cute was this baby owl :-)
Borre Da , a lot of difference between overnight camping and overnight parking.
As a holiday maker, I do park my van overnight and pay for that privilege .
I don't understand the problem with me sleeping in the bed in my van at night.
Nothing has ever been said if I sleep in my van during the day then continue driving through every village at night.
I have lived in Wales most of my life. I have never known it to be this difficult to travel around my own country, both in terms of affordability and practicalities. When I was a child my father had an old van that we lived in for years due to circumstances. We would travel up down and around wales with the only costs being petrol and food. I'm sure it was a harsh life for my parents, but us children had a great time travelling and we were welcomed everywhere we went, especially churches, pubs and even the traveller communities welcomed us and helped us out a bit. It's not like that anymore. I'm sad my kids will never know that kind of freedom.
Have I mentioned before how much I love Lou's brain to see things? The "crunch" sound transition, waterfall going backwards... Magnificent. At this rate, Emily sees herself as a soon to bee Cinnamon Roll, that is why she is rolling the wrinkles out. Another fascinating video.And another spell bound dance moves. ¡¡Pura Vida!!
I know she does have a special kind of brain
All of your videos are wonderfully filmed and edited. This one is absolutely amazing!! Just beautiful. I'm including sound editing. A real treat watching this on my Sunday morning. Thank you both!
Thank you 😊
Kudos to Louise for getting such sharp Puffin photos, on a dull day, with a long lens and from a moving boat!! 👍
Once again-excellent editing and such beautiful shots with the drone-you two always make my Sunday evening :)
I left Anglesey in 1973 and returned in the mid 90’s for a few years. I then moved back to the West Midlands until 2016 when I hit 60. It’s the best thing I did. It was hiraeth (longing) for Anglesey and to be able to speak my native tongue everyday that made me return. Which I missed whilst I lived in England
Love the way they speak on the island
Your videos are such a delight; they are funny, informative, creative and beautifully edited, thank you.
Your videos are my Sunday evening treat, with a small snack and a cup of tea - perfect. Sending love for safe and happy travels
Thanks ladies. Love, love Anglesey and Wales so I look forward to watching your next visit.
Really nice video! The puffin and that owl was very nice watching.
Loved seeing all the wildlife and the water ringing the bell was so awesome and unique
Another fab video, thank you ladies x
Loved Wales and Anglesea! Cute wee tawny owl, Puffins and Red Squirrels and the Tan Spoodle on the ferry! I am a fan of hot D🤩ogs! Yum!💖💖💖

Another great job guys , Wales is so beautiful and I was going to say it looks like the weather has been on your side. Take care Lori p.s Loved the bit about the onion
Omg the owl!
Thank you so much for being honest about it. I really want to go in our van and I don’t want to be disappointed- it’s been a long time since I was in my homeland. So I’m glad to know there are campsites. I LOVE the 2 minute tours, Emily xx
Yeah definitely a few campsites to pick from 😀
Another great video. Stellar videography! Loved the effects. The waterfall reverse to normal to zoom out was excellent but my favorite was the screaming onion. That was so funny!
Wonderful video as always ladies ☺️ You brighten up our Sundays like nothing else! Thank you for letting us all tag along for the ride❤x
😀😀
The stonework of the house or ruins in the quarry looked completely new. The walls were so straight and the stone it was build of also looked new. Fascinating🤔. Them builders must've been expert stonehouse builders. Wales is very beautiful💕
I had fun watching you have fun…beautiful place, beautiful ladies. Loved the video…thanks
Absolutely wonderful once again ladies.Sad that the park ups were so few. However we all know as motorhomers why they get shut down. Keep on travelling you are the best! XX

I have to agree, Snowdonia is just exquisite and although I agree that no photos really do it justice I think you’ve done a pretty smashing job - great video!

Great vlog ladies. ❤ loved it. Love Wales. Only 1 hr away so go often. Shame about the lack of park ups, 😢 xx
Stunning footage once again, nailed it Lou 👌
Looks like a great assortment of birds there on Anglesey! Think I noticed Common and Black guillemot, Razorbills, Gannets and the easy to recognize Puffins. Superb 👍
Brilliant! Thanks again for sharing🙏

Ohhhh you pair of absolute delights 💕 Made me laugh so hard 😂Thank you for sharing your journeys, challenges and of course your mischiefssss!!!❤❤ Lots of Love from David (from Scotland 🏴) XXXX
I totally totally agree with you about the campsites. We are here in Wales for 3 weeks now. I am utterly shocked at the expense both of food and campsites. Granted some are excellent but boy are they expensive.
It’s crazy the prices of some of them
A captive market!
That's a universal problem and is a huge threat to the experience it looks to me that there's a conspiracy to kill the goose that lays the golden egg. Here in the States corporations are buyimg up campgrounds and charging obscene fees.
Hi ladies, Only recently found your channel. Have binge watched and really enjoyed all of your videos😂 thanks for another good one. 👍🏻
😀😀🥳🥳
OMG!! 😂❤ Hot Dogs in a can. Lol I have never seen them before. Excellent video as usual. You never let me down. The scenery is stunning. I’m glad you seen your red squirrels. I remember the video where you went looking for them and wasn’t very successful. Thanks so much for sharing this. Stay safe. See you next Sunday.
No way, never seen hot dogs in a can, there are loads over here
Absolutely beautiful. I love it.
Loved seeing the owl and squirrels 🐿️ thank you so much for all the time and effort you put into your videos ❤ you guys are still one of my favorite you-tubers 😊❤
😀😀😀
amazing vlog ladies ty for sharing x
Another brilliant vlog! THE ONION THO.... I snorted my tea with the laugh, very funny. Thank you! 😍😁😊
Beautiful video ladies. Loved the drone shots.👏
It's great you got to see red 🐿️🐿️ plus the chick and puffins plus fantastic bays or Rhosneigr keep have a great time exploring 👍
Also think I spotted your mum in a vlog at camp quirky from another u tuber looking very chilled 👍
Loved those squirrels,Owls,Puffins. The screnery is just lovely. It’s good to see where my Grandparents came from in the early 1900. To Australia. They were farmers & shop keepers. Came out to Australia for a better life, & yes they got it .Thank you keep happy Elaine from Queensland,Australia.
I would love to visit there one day
The squirrels!🤩
Inspired us to make a trip to Wales later in the year, so thanks for that. Great video as always, just so professional.
🥳🥳
Stumbled across this purely by accident. So pleasing to see views of the area I’ve not seen before. Also interesting to spot my caravan in the drone footage once you had parked up.
Cracking video and a new subscriber. Now off to watch more of your wonderful adventures. 👏
Welcome along and thanks
Drone footage is amazing Lou!
Beautiful scenery and wildlife. Hope all is well, take care
Thanks for showing off Anglesey in such a lovely way. As a local we forgot sometimes how special it is.
You could of parked outside our house, we would of loved to accommodate you for free. 👍👍
Stunning camera work as usual, and the music choices are also 👍🏻
Hi great video ladies and really interesting......even the tech bit which always goes over my head😂 !
I watch a few of van life videos and I've always wondered what is with the whole showing making coffee in the morning .......can u help ?🤔
Thanks again ladies x
Cracking vid as always!! Really fancy Anglesey, even more now!
Best interior of any van lifers I follow, absolutely love it
Love to AJ and Summer xx
Thanks 😊
Looked amazing the last time I went to wales it rained so hard you couldn't see a thing . Great vlog girls 👍👍💓💓
love the reverse shots of the waterfall
Thank you for sharing the stunning scenery and wildlife of Wales. There is so much that I’ve never seen before. The real shocker was seeing hot dogs in a can. That’s a first for this American. Loved the hot dog dance!
Loved it all - especially the onion!
totally cracked up at the onion bit 😂😂😂😂 you've outdone yourselves again ... thanks for bringing the laughs
Beautiful photos of the puffins Louise!
Have to say that Wales is a beautiful place to be, you said very Cornwall ish, but think its more lake district ish. But then any place rugged, remote and scenic, is beautiful. Great wildlife and tour video girls, always a pleasure to watch.
Beautiful part of the world thank you for sharing it with us. Stay healthy be safe until next time.
Hi guys great vlog again
Be safe 👍
3:39. TUFTY and his gal(?) having fun! Brilliant, fun photography Louise. Thanks for brightening our days
The first drone footage of Snowdonia and the music is stunning, also, love the onion😂
Loving your films, love the red squirrels and puffins. I assume you’ve left Wales now but the beaches on the north east coast are stunning. For me though the jewel in the crown is Portmerion, such a surprise when you first see it. Maybe next time! Kind regards to you both for your great footage and cheerfulness, it’s really heart warming.
We will definitely be back 😀
Loved the owl. Only ever seen one once when I had a static van in Wales… fascinating to see. Emily’s dancing always makes me smile 😁
😀
Another fab clog being Welsh I’m very pleased with how you portray my homeland it’s so beautiful glad you enjoyed it
It was extremely lovely
That chute reminded me of the Levadas on Madeira, great walks on those!
Wow loved the wild life, so beautiful Wales
