    We always used to go to Fakenham Racecourse camping in November. This looks like a good alternative 😃 Thanks for sharing ! 💙 Trev n Sue

      Hi Trev & Sue, lovely place but it’s a while ago since we were there. Handy for Fakenham, Wells & Burnham Market 👍 Cheers, Helen & Dave 👍

      Thanks H&M, not too far from you either. Unless you have bikes though it’s a little too far to walk to civilisation but we liked it. ATB Helen & Dave

    Hi, 3:23 in to your video, was that an English electric lightning? it flashed passed too quickly, to be certain and then you started swearing LOL . We love CL's and this one looks nice, will add this to the list. Stay safe👍Mark & Coral

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  3 года назад +2

      Hi Mark & Coral, how very observant of you & spot on, it was. They used to be stationed at RAF Coltishall, about 6 miles or so from Norwich. We will be doing more CL’s in the future, lots of benefits. Thanks for watching, ATB Dave & Helen

    Hi Helen and Dave. Great looking CL site. Live that airplanes on the edge of the bypass. We must make more of effort to get over Norfolk way. Anyway great video as normal. Take care guys 😷👍 Paul and Sarah

    RAF Scunthorpe right on the doorstep there, not operational but used for training by the USAF & RAF. Very nice CL, enjoyed the video.

      Yes, not too much activity this week but we heard an Osprey at night. Thanks for watching, cheers Dave & Helen

    Hi
    Great video with good information. Although we live in Yorkshire we travel to Norfolk and Suffolk most years and love the area. We’ve stayed at Barleywood and Side-a-Wood in the past and they are both excellent sites, with welcoming owners and in a great location for the area. We are in Suffolk in July at a new CL called Barn Owl Meadows to the east of Bury St Edmunds.

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  3 года назад +1

      Hi Stephen, many thanks for leaving a comment you’ll know better than most what a little gem this is and although we live on the Norfolk coast we too enjoy our breaks locally. We are hoping to find a nice place to stay soon on the Yorkshire coast Scarborough/Whitby/Bridlington areas. Suggestions very welcome!! Thanks again, cheers, Dave & Helen

    What a Great site you've got everything you need. Never used a Cl site might have give it ago my Uncle and Auntie use a lot. X

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  3 года назад +1

      Hi both, same, we rarely stay at a CL but there are many advantages. They are a lot cheaper, much quieter and lots of personal touches in most cases. Thanks for watching, cheers Dave & Helen

  • @richardcope3850
    @richardcope3850 2 года назад +1

    RAF Sculthorpe! I was based there in the late 80’s/early 90’s, I’ll have to pay this place a visit one day.

    Nice to see that some of the vlog was “filmed from a Canberra” 😉 good cars the Kia I’d recognise that indicator sound anywhere we have one too, we’re off to Norfolk later this year so are avidly checking yours and H&M’s vlogs of the area, we’re joining the c.a.m.c soon to give more options this year (only c&c at the moment) 🖤🏴‍☠️

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  3 года назад +1

      Hi Rick & Heather, yep, the Kia is turning out to be our top car, very pleased with her. Thanks for watching, plenty of lovely places to visit in Norfolk but we especially like to go to North Norfolk around Cromer. ATB Dave & Helen

    Top tip, if your doing a long ferry trip freeze a couple of bottles of milk and put in your fridge to keep the contents chilled

    Wasn’t the Vulcan at Norwich air museum used in the Black Buck missions in 1982?

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  2 года назад +2

      I'm not sure Richard, I believe it was based at Waddington and carried out bombing practice as part of the Black Buck initial 5 Vulcans, just not sure if it went to Ascension Island or not. Wish there was still a flying example, lovely aircraft.

    • @richardcope3850
      @richardcope3850 2 года назад

      Yes awesome aircraft. I seem to remember @markfelton visited it and gave some history but memory isn’t what it was!

    Hi Dave & Helen, Another great site tour and our kind of CL. How did you find the ground as we’ve never pitched on grass before? Looking forward to your next video at Wells, we’ve never been there. Cheers Rob

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  3 года назад +2

      Hi Rob, the grass was surprisingly hard, kept short but we worked a shoes and boots policy and we always wash Bellas paws before she comes in the van. Wells is lovely, watch this space! Cheers Dave & Helen

    Sorry to be a pain but probably you have covered this topic, what satnav are you using when towing your caravan and does it cover the larger caravan`s as well?

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  Год назад +2

      Hello and thanks for watching the channel. The Sat Nav I use is (Aguri) and is designed specifically for caravans & motorhomes. You input the measurements of your vehicle and caravan, Length, width & height and it avoids any roads/bridges that your vehicle will not get down. Here is a link to it amzn.to/40Cqeeh
      Thanks again, Helen & Dave

    Is that £17 a night for two people or plus £3 per person?

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  3 года назад +1

      Hi Chris, we paid £17 for the pitch didn’t see anything to suggest any charges per extra persons. Contact details via the link, thanks for watching www.barleywood.net

      Yes we’ve noticed that too. RAF Scunthorpe is used for training and exercises. 👍 ATB Dave and Helen
