      Ha ha 😂 Thank you Dave, that was actually - the plan great shout 😁 But we couldn’t find the last 2 😬 Also we couldn’t film one of them as Iain had to help a lady out who had got stuck in the chair 😂 Caroline refused to sit in them after that 😊 Thanks for watching 🥰

    We really enjoyed this tour around York. It did take the wind out of my sails a bit though as I thought you’d gone to York just for myself earlier.😂 Quick fact about giant Deck chairs. I once sat in the same giant deckchair as Shane Richie. I didn’t realise that BrewDog did food as well as beer. Sounds like an ideal place if you can get pizza and beer. Also before I forget love the fact that Caroline‘s nails match her hoodie 👍🏻 Great to have you guys back 😊

      Aw thank you both and hope David had a lovely birthday 🥳 Super impressed by Clare, amazing thoughtful idea with the messages ❤️ Ha ha don’t worry the station visit was genuinely just for you, when we were looking at the map of York before going out we looked for something David would like, it jumped out the page 🚂 😂 Caroline is very pleased you noticed her nails too 😂😂😂👍

      Thank you both 🥰 Great excuse to visit York visiting your family 👌 We definitely would return to this site as it’s so close to the centre too. The beers were good, definitely need to pay a visit to the brewery and the one that surprised the most was actually the stout, sometimes they can be too dark and heavy but this one has lots of flavour 👍 Have a lovely weekend and thanks for watching 😊

    @timw2973 2 года назад +2

    A great site, we were there in January and it was fantastic even on an early morning dog walk in the mist. Not an easy site to get a booking either but well worth the wait. Shame so many places aren't dog friendly like the wall, we have to plan our trips carefully too. Love the goose that clearly wasn't impressed with Mollie but Mollie was so well behaved. Wouldn't be a Vantastic adventure without a beer to 2😂😂. Anyway great to see you back on the road after what must have been a difficult time. Take care and safe travels 👍👍

      Thank you Tim, that’s very kind 🥰 yes being back in the van was a welcome distraction and also making videos again 😊 It’s such a lovely site and location, can see why it’s so popular. Misty January sounds perfect, we will have to return in winter thanks for the tip, love walking like that when not many people around 👌 Not sure Mollie knew what to make of the geese, they were everywhere 😂

    Hi Iain and Caroline, it’s a fantastic site - the walk to the right as you come of the entrance of the site is brilliant - last time we were there in March (I think) it was frosty in the morning and was beautiful. Such a shame they don’t let dogs on the walls isn’t it. Great they were friendly with dogs in Brewdog - fab tip. Fish and chips looked good - hope it tasted good too! Great beer selection too. The ghost tour is good fun and interesting if you get chance to do that. Can’t beat the location can you - all the best, David, Rachel & Roxy 🐾

    • @VantasticAdventures
      @VantasticAdventures  2 года назад +1

      Thank you, yes it’s such a great site for location and that river walk is gorgeous. In fact the first morning we were up really early and had a walk, ended up out for an hour it was so nice 😂 Frosty would be lovely, we will have to return when it’s colder thank you. Really wanted to do the ghost tour, it looked brilliant but Caroline isn’t so keen, she is easily spooked 😂 The beers were very good and so were the fish and chips, the shop was just outside the campsite too 👍😁 Have a lovely weekend 🥰

    Good to see you back fellas, looks a nice place. Always wanted to go to York never been yet, had the opportunity of going to Law School in York or Chester, chose Chester 30 odd years ago, legendary Ring oBells, Christleton, I’m sure you know it?! ;-)

    • @VantasticAdventures
      @VantasticAdventures  2 года назад +1

      Thank you Mark 🥰 Yes York is actually very similar to Chester and well worth a visit, the link to chocolate is great too and you can get some really great stuff 👌 Ring O’Bells yes we do 😁 Although never actually eaten there, we pick up the canal at Christleton to cycle into the city centre along the tow path so the pubs there are a good starting or finishing point 😉

    Difficult site to get on but great location by the park. Unfortunately our dog hates crowded streets so we couldn’t make the most of our last visit. Really enjoyed your video and can’t make up my mind whether the fish & chips or hot chocolate was best 😉

    • @VantasticAdventures
      @VantasticAdventures  2 года назад +1

      That’s a tough one Ann 😂 Iain prefers the fish and chips and Caroline the chocolate but that doesn’t really help 😂 Mollie can sometimes be wary in crowds too but she was okay in York except with the hen party’s 😬 We try to stay around the parks and open spaces which there are plenty in York, shame they are not allowed on the walls. Thanks for watching 😊👍
