    We live not far from Burnham on sea, we take our dogs for a walk there they love it usually out of season. The tide is the 2nd highest tidal range in the world. Did you see the listed lighthouse on legs on Burnham beach? It makes an appearance on the title sequence of Escape to the Country.

      Hi, it's a great walk there and thanks for the information. We didn’t see the listed lighthouse but we will definitely check it out next time we visit 😊 Happy Travels 😊

    Hi guys, that camping shop in Brean is AWSOME, they sell everything you would/could need. We stayed just around the corner from there. Beach is not quite a Cornwall beach though, plus be careful if you walk to the edge of the sea there are signs saying beware sinking sand.

    We used e-bikes in Uk. As scooters aren’t legal. However scooters all day in Europe… if you go back - do the rally at Warren farm with Cov Da. Much nicer site and a damn site cheaper

    You asked in your vlog what is the better option ebike or scooter . I have an E bike and a scooter electric ?
    There are great things that are good about either option my personal choice would be an E bike the main reason for my choice is an E bike is a lot safer ie stability. Also you get to go a lot more miles on a bike .

    • @lifes4touring
      @lifes4touring  10 месяцев назад

      Thank you for your comment it’s a great help as we are still unsure, I think we are leaning to E bikes for the future. Happy travels 😊

      Thank you and that would be the logical answer if only it wasn’t the busy strip on there one way system around the park. I would have blocked the road and not much room to turn etc. Happy Travels 😊

    I live in Burnham, all the local sites are expensive, I feel for you £28 for a field is a rip off. There is a great site at Uphill marina. And the CMC site in Hurn lane is very good. Think all the other campsites nearer the Down are poor, fields only, poor facilities, very exposed to the wind and rain, I wouldn’t recommend any of them. The holiday parks are all really expensive !
    Well done on Brean Down lovely up there, and walking to uphill ! Cafe 33 on the path is really good 👍
    Hope you come down again sometime and you get a better deal, better facilities etc. IanB campervan owner

      Hi Ian and thank you, we have stayed at Uphill before on a past vlog and that was amazing. Totally different from this experience however saying that you live and learn with each site you visit. You live in an amazing area with outstanding walks. We will definitely be back probably next year. Happy Travels 😊

    Flipping ek, fair play i was tired watching you walk those steps, £28 a night wow that's not great for a field, i don't mind paying for a camp site (not that one) definitely love my e- bike but saying that you wouldn't have got up that hill if you'd had bikes with you (or scooters) i don't think they're going to legalise them any time soon. Be good to see what you decide.
    Great video both x

    • @lifes4touring
      @lifes4touring  Год назад

      Hi and thank you, It was a big walk but worth it 😊 Yeah £28 wasn’t the best for what it was and there is lot's of sites in the area so next time i'll do my research on what site i pick 🤣 Your right as the bikes wouldn’t have been much help up the steps 🤦‍♂️🤣 Happy Travels

  • @robertpenning3501
    @robertpenning3501 Год назад +2

    I can't see anything attractive about that site at all. £28 a night, on grass and without electric is a complete an utter ripoff. I would have asked for my money back and gone elsewhere. Anyway, All the best from us here in Southern France and Safe travels.

      @@lifes4touring i have regretted carting around the country bikes…and if you have to fit them on an outside carrier the weathering makes your pride and joy junk in no time at all..or storing them outside on the campsite…its a nightmare unless you have a full time garage onboard which very few people do..a folding scooter is the best solution…

    • @lifes4touring
      @lifes4touring  Год назад

      Totally agree, a bike rack isn’t something i want to add to the motorhome so it will need to be something that fits in the garage. Luckily we have a good size garage but still it will need to fold away to give room for other items. 😊

      @@lifes4touring a swifty zero is best if you can fit it in your garage…but a swifty one is a good alternative if you have to resort to folding because of garage room..the brakes are better on the zero..and its faster than the swifty air…
