  • After originally planning to wild camp at Shotley Gate, further down the River Stour estuary in Suffolk, we ditched the plan due to lack of suitable places out of view to camp. I then remembered a really lovely river beach and peninsula that jutted out into the river near Lower Holbrook from when I did the Stour and Orwell long distance walk some years ago. We decided to head over to there and walk upstream to find this spot, despite the fact we were losing light and didn't entirely know how far away it was! The walk to find it turned into a bit of an adventure but we eventually made it at around 7 pm and set up camp on the beach. I had my brand new OEX BUSH PRO TARP AND BIVVY BAG and was eager to test them out . . .

      Decent spot that one. Worth remembering if you plan to do the stour and Orwell walk. It'd be the final night as cattawade isn't far away.

    Amazing how things change - when I was a kid a 'bivvy' was a shelter made from sticks and branches of leaves leant up against each other that we used to make over the park! Another easy to watch video - nice and relaxing ...... ATB

    Hey Tom. I've camped here a couple of times last year. It's my favourite spot too. I live in Manningtree just over the river so easy and convienient to get to. Love the video.

      nah never mate, it did take me a lot longer to edit and finish off. had lots of time to play around with it. not a competition anyways. art is a reflection of how one perceives something, your video is how you perceived the camp. that's what i kept telling myself when i was doing camps with Kent Andy anyway! lol. cheers and no problem mate. see you at the weekend!

      from May onwards mate i'll be doing more of the kent coastline, from rochester onwards, be great if you could join us on a section. any of the sections will take about 3 to 4 days tops so if you can get time off let me know.

    I was also looking for possible camps at Shotley and walked round from Pin Mill thinking that Cranes Hill was a possible. When I got to this part I thought it was perfect. I did note the deep rills which cut across the path near here would be a leg breaker in the dark though!
    Are you planning on doing the Ridgeway?

    Really loved this video . Looking to buy a new tarp and this looks perfect, does it have attachment points on the inside as well as the outside mate?. Also , did you find any condensation build up in the bivvy? Thank you 😊

    • @TOM_OUTDOORS
      @TOM_OUTDOORS  3 года назад +2

      No it only has attachments on one side mate but lots of them. Can I be honest? I wouldn't personally recommend this tarp. Only because its quite bulky and heavy and its actually slightly smaller than a 3x3, it's something like 2.9 x 2.8m meaning that you can't do a lot of the main configurations. As much as it pains me to follow everyone else, a DD 3x3 or DD Superlight 3x3 would be better imo. No condensation in the bivvy but then again I didn't have it done up tight with my head right inside it. You do that and you'll get condensation in any bivvy. Hope this helps. Cheers for watching mate.

      @@TOM_OUTDOORS Ahh that's a shame about the weight . The size was ideal and with all them attachment points , was hoping i could use it in very high winds in the tent configuration. Will keep a look out for another one. Thanks for the quick reply bud
