    The site looked stunning and you can see why it has won awards. I love the idea of walking from England to Scotland and back again. Scampi and chips is my go to pub lunch. Take care Gill

      It’s a lovely site and a nice location too, we weren’t expecting to be able to walk back into Scotland and as you say there was something great about walking between countries and back, Scampi is always a great choice! All the very best, David & Rachel 👍

    Laughing now as we stopped at the boarder for a photo or 2 and also did the garden centre for breakfast and meet family. So glad you enjoyed it. Some great drone footage and definitely a strange feeling as you walk the bridge and a car goes over it😂. The gardens out the back are a lovely walk. Great to see Roxy playing. As always thanks for taking the time and sharing these vlogs

    Great video guys 👍 it never occurred to me to look out garden centres while out and about in the van as they usually have big enough car parks to fit in and we all love a look round a garden centre 😉👍 ... yes can't beat a bit of blue 💙 😂👍 ... love to you all 😘🤗❤👵🏾🐾🐾🐾🤠 xxxx

    • @LeisureBit
      @LeisureBit  Месяц назад +1

      Thank you - hope you’re both good. Yes, the car parks are usually fairly handy for vans and unlike some of the supermarkets and retail outlets tend not so often to have too many parking rules also. There’s some great food at some too with fresh farm ingredients, farm shops worth looking out for too as the larger ones of those can have handy car parks with plenty of room too. I sometimes have a Quick Look on Google Maps satellite view for smaller ones to see if it looks ok for parking if we have pre planned a stop but sometimes you’re just passing and call in.
      Have a good rest of the week and weekend and hopefully catch you soon xxx 😘🙌❤️🐾

    Good video again, we stayed there in June lovely peaceful site and well kept. The only thing I didn't like the showers were not the ,not easy to get in & out off if you are a little on the big size.
    But we would go back again.
    So nice to see inside the pub as we never found it open.
    Look forward to your next trip.

    Hi David and Rachel I know that border point well and it’s much better than the one on the m6 you always have to stop both ways!! Will have to look for the leisure bit sticker next time I am there!
    The campsite looks lovely and it’s the just of site I enjoy where you can relax and get away from it all it looked spotless clean and a good base to explore from
    Love a good pub and the fishers arms looked great and the food! Great when these places can be kept for the community!
    Looks like you both had a great time on this tour and as we Scot’s say haste ye back! All the best to you all Daniel

    We liked Chain Bridge when went in 2018. Looks much improved. Unisex toilets and showers still? We walked and drove over the bridge itself, it closed to traffic shortly afterwards! 😊 The pub looked nice.

    • @LeisureBit
      @LeisureBit  Месяц назад

      It’s a really lovely site, really exceeded expectations. Yes, the toilets and showers were still unisex but there were a few of them and individual rooms - we’ve seen a few like that lately. The bridge had a very tight width restriction as we saw cars going through it and 3T weight so we didn’t go down in the van 😀 The pub was lovely and had a real community feel to it and they were really friendly - the honey farm was interesting too. All the very best, David & Rachel 👍

    Hello Rachel and David and Roxy. Hope u are well. Well what an interesting video. Full of things too see. Nice walks. I bought an AA 2.4w obd port plug in solar trickle charger to keep battery topped up when not using campervan Highly recommended. Do u have one?. You make our Sunday evening very cheery, great drone shots, lovely music. One of your tunes sounds like it reminds me of 1970s show, Terry and June, remember them?. Happy Xmas to you both. Best wishes David and Beverley Norfolk
