      Liz it most definitely does and I can't wait to go back through my footage to put the rest of this series together. So stunning was our day to Bodenham that I got a Panoramic picture I took on my phone printed onto canvas! Thanks for watching - apologies for the slow reply :)

    Lovely video Andy. Always great to see the videos of your family away in the caravan. Was Great to see you all again at Tourerfest and thanks for all your efforts in making that such an enjoyable for all of us.

    Great to see you guys back 👍🏻 We love Parkdean, read a lot of bad things about them but we use our two local (just within an hour) sites a lot. They’re dirt cheap out of holiday times and you get a lot for your money. We were heading back to Sandford in Dorset in August for the third time in a year, but unfortunately it’s just too much money this year for a fortnight in the holidays. Had a great summer and October half term there last year though. Keep up the great work guys, loving the ‘van. ...it’s got me browsing again! 😉😂

      Cheers Roger, overall we had a fab time over Easter and I look forward to finishing this series off once we've done our Spain vlogs. The only thing I'd say, the two tent fields at Ty Mawr were absolutely ram packed with almost no separation. Had we have been put there we would have left and found another site. I'm sure it's only like that over bank holidays (and when the forecast is good) but we couldn't fault the site for the amount of entertainment and activities available. Thanks for watching, Andy

    Have to agree with you that the stability with the twin axle for a single axle was great, but yes those narrow roads take a bit of getting used to. Glad your enjoying.

    • @MakeWayWithTheMorleys
      @MakeWayWithTheMorleys  5 лет назад

      Most definitely, like anything it takes a bit of time to get comfortable with it. Still delighted with our choice. Andy

    • @MakeWayWithTheMorleys
      @MakeWayWithTheMorleys  5 лет назад

      So embarrassed it's taken this long to get back to you! And yes, we're still delighted with it! Can't wait to get away again soon :) Hope you're keeping well. Andy

    Good to hear that a twin axel is more stable to tow! I have Finally taken the plunge and bought my first caravan a S2 Bologna so super excited to take it away. Would have loved to come to tourerfest but I’m currently away in Zante so couldn’t make it! Great vlog as always! Dave Stevenson

    Nice vlog. Glad the caravan tows well. We find our Unicorn IV tows great much better than our previous caravan 👍🏻Graham

    • @MakeWayWithTheMorleys
      @MakeWayWithTheMorleys  5 лет назад

      Cheers Graham, I've since altered the towbar height as it was set to the lowest - going to Spain it was evident that the Caravan was a bit nose down and as such noticed the jockey wheels caught ground a couple of times when going over massive speed bumps. I wonder the effect it will have on future tows?! Andy

    Hi guys, hope you are all well and will be back soon. We are missing the caravan porn as we call it haha. We was getting a little worried that something was wrong as you haven't posted in a while. Your our favorets! We looked to you posts lots when starting out for info. got our van last August and have been so many places, we have Lilly 4 and Finley 3 Roxy the rottie. They absolutely love the van and our time away making memorys is precious.

    • @MakeWayWithTheMorleys
      @MakeWayWithTheMorleys  5 лет назад

      Hiya Rachael, thanks for dropping us a line. We are fine thanks and all is well with us. We've had a super busy summer but all will be explained very soon and normal holiday vids (and some product vids) will be uploaded soon.
      Glad to hear that you're new to caravanning and also enjoying your times away. Thanks for your patience. Andy

  • @willwaters2447
    @willwaters2447 5 лет назад

    Another lovely video, look forward to hearing about the rest of your Wales trip how you are enjoying the caravan. We're a family of five and this is our 12th year of caravanning. You remind us of how we were 10 years ago - discovering new things every time and like us, starting with a second hand caravan until you've worked out what you want from your caravan and buying a brand new one with a compatible new car too. Our children are now 15, 13 and 8, and the good news is that you never stop discovering new things to do and places to visit. Two questions we were curious about... Are you going back to Pin Parasol this summer? Your videos were one of the reasons we have chosen to go there this summer. And also, where was Finley? Apologies if I missed the exclamation! Happy Caravanning...

    • @MakeWayWithTheMorleys
      @MakeWayWithTheMorleys  5 лет назад

      Hi Will, sorry for the delay replying! The rest of the Wales trip will be out later this year, I plan to get the Spain trip out first and then will go back in time - hehe. We love discovering new places and found some gems on this particular trip - can't wait to share them too. Finn was away with Scouts for this trip so he didn't make it. As you might have guessed, no we didn't go back to Pin Parasol, hope you had a great time thought?! Let us know. Cheers, Andy

    Great video, I think at some point we’ll be visiting Wales. Not been in the van yet.
    Will you be doing a short video on how the 8ft van behaves when towing? Pro/cons etc?
    Have been looking at them and curious on stability, easy of towing and how they are affected by other traffic.

    • @MakeWayWithTheMorleys
      @MakeWayWithTheMorleys  5 лет назад

      Hiya Mark, thanks for watching and getting in touch. I hadn't thought of it from that angle but I will pop it down in the ideas bin for things to cover. I did get some GoPro footage from the nearside bunk window when we travelled from Bridport to Longleat last week, it makes for interesting watching. Cheers, Andy

    Hi Andy. Another great video. Really loving your new van 👍🏻 Which towing mirrors do you use, we are looking for new as ours are not very sturdy at all. Thanks, the Mcginleys 🌿

    • @MakeWayWithTheMorleys
      @MakeWayWithTheMorleys  5 лет назад +1

      Hey guys, sorry for the slow reply and expect you've already sorted this out by now?! Before we went to Spain I bought some new Milenco Grande Aeros, they're brilliant and didn't budge an inch in the whole 1850 mile tow from home to Camping Las Dunas. Hope you've had a good summer, new videos coming soon. Andy

    Great vlog looking forward to the rest of the mini series. The new van looks good, could I ask where you got your towing cover from? And how you find it? We have an 8ft brindisi and it’s something I’m looking at getting. Cheers Stuart, Rebecca and blue 🐾

  • @thecampingcouple9562

  • @wellywanger3819
    @wellywanger3819 5 лет назад

    Hi how are you getting on with the navara? I'm looking at one for towing my swift challenger 570 and for daily duties, to replace my old disco 2.

    • @MakeWayWithTheMorleys
      @MakeWayWithTheMorleys  5 лет назад

      Hi Wesley, yeah getting on alright thanks. A review is long overdue and I've got it planned for the coming weeks, problem is finding the time to film when it's clean - don't buy a black one!! It should tow your Swift no problem at all. Max towing weight is 3500kgs, the ride quality is decent by pickup standards by having car like suspension, unlike it's "leaf sprung" competitors. I'll do a full run down of running costs in the video :) Thanks for watching, Andy

    Very nice, being a twin axle makes it easier I guess 👍👍

    • @MakeWayWithTheMorleys
      @MakeWayWithTheMorleys  5 лет назад +1

      Hi Tony, more relaxed I think is what I'd say. I'm still getting used to the extra length and turning arc but it will come with time. Cheers, Andy

    • @MakeWayWithTheMorleys
      @MakeWayWithTheMorleys  5 лет назад

      Thanks very much, haha yes he was! He didn't come along for this trip nor in fact for Tourer Fest that we've just come back from.... Think it's about time he made an effort 😀. Thanks for watching. Andy

    Great video, our girls also sometimes count things in the number of sleeps. A site with a pool is always a big plus for our girls. It's already been requested for Maisie's birthday next February half term.

    • @MakeWayWithTheMorleys
      @MakeWayWithTheMorleys  5 лет назад +1

      Thank you. Haha, it's funny how they do that. Yes there are a few sites with pools, our kids love swimming so it made sense to go there. Take care. Andy

    Where do you get your awning,

    • @MakeWayWithTheMorleys
      @MakeWayWithTheMorleys  5 лет назад

      Cora the awning is a Kampa Grande Air Pro All Season, this is the 330cm version though we've just tried the larger 390 which was perfect for our summer holiday. More to follow on both of those in the coming months. Andy
