Oh brilliant! That was such a wonderful and unexpected surprise for which we are very grateful (including Bella, she ate them all). Glad you like the vids and hope you enjoyed Pinewoods as much as we did. Thanks again, Dave & Helen.
What a lovely site and so peaceful. We liked your pitch, talk about big. Abby is just like Willow, certain surfaces are año go or a run for your life. Great vlog guys thank you so much for sharing
Hi Tristan & Katie, thanks so much for watching the video. We had a great stay at Pinewood’s despite some windy weather. Hope you had another great stay. Love Wells! Cheers, Dave & Helen
I've been to Wells next to sea many times, love it, ❤️ but never thought to stay at the camp site, only hour down the road, will stay know, thank you Helen & Dave
Hi Dave and Helen, we have stayed at Pine Woods, we enjoyed our stay too. love Wells it has a lovely harbour and love a walk around the resort. The sunset was amazing. Shame you had a weather disaster with the canopy but the gift was lovely especially the fudge Helen, take care x Julie and Tony x
Hi Julie & Tony, thanks for watching, like you, we enjoyed our stay. The gifts were a very nice surprise and we still do not know who bought them for us. Thanks again. Helen & Dave 👍
Hi Helen and Dave. Shame about the wind good about the lovely present. Do like a drop of ghost ship myself. Great video as normal have a great time. Paul and Sarah 😊
We’ve just got home after 11 days in Somerset and then Dorset. How our air awning survived Saturday night I will never know, it was blowing an absolute hooley and throwing it down. So sorry to hear about your canopy and lights. Nice to find your surprise to make up for it.
Hi Sandra, strange weather for July 🥴 Se are away now and it’s chucking it down 🌧️☔️. Hope you had a good time in Somerset/Dorset. Cheers Helen & Dave 👍
Hi there Julie, did you enjoy Kelling Heath? it features in our next Vlog on Thursday. Wells is just amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed Pinewoods and we will shortly be heading to a pop up site at Holkham Hall....can't get enough of Norfolk. Thanks for watching and we hope you have a great stay in September. ATB, Dave & Helen.
Kelling Heath was amazing,our 3rd time but first in the camper. Internet was rubbish though 😂😂😂 we also went to Seacroft and Ludham. Norfolk is our 2nd home 😘❤️😘👍😘
Hello there Dave & Helen, Great video, nice one, enjoyed watching 👍. We have looked at this site in the past and Wells looks a welcoming little town with its iconic beach huts. Shame about the windy weather and your ruined lights but the sunsets made up for it along with the thoughtful gift bag. Your seafood platter looked very appetising including the sandy mussels 😂. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi Rob & Gail, it's a great site and we know how much you enjoy your walks, so we highly recommend a visit here. The seafood platter was amazing, ever since the crab at Overstrained/Cromer I've really began to enjoy different seafood. Thanks as always for watching. ATB, Dave & Helen.
Great vlog Dave stayed in the Crown very nice and our Dog was extremely spoilt they even brought up a bed especially for him and they food is very nice.
Hi, and thanks. Must agree, The Crown is a lovely pub too. We called there in the winter, log burner blazing, quaint surroundings as well as good food. ATB, Dave & Helen
Wow. A Public House called The Edinburgh. Our home town. My good lady Alison and I are Edinburgh born and bred. Been for a few snifters in Winchbuurgh The Fox And Hound. What a great vid guys.
Hi Alan, yeah The Edinburgh, great name for a pub. Don’t know the Fox & Hound, do you mean The Tally Ho? Thanks very much for watching and all the best. Helen & Dave 👍
Hi Diane, funny weather we are having!! we've just got back from Sheringham today and the weather was sunny but very windy!! Glad you're enjoying it though. Take care, Helen & Dave
Hi Patricia, thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment. We love Wells and will be back in that area very soon. So many lovely places to visit! ATB, Dave & Helen.
Barbara, there's nowhere quite like it. As you say the walks and the beach are amazing. We are off to Holkham Hall pop up site very soon but not ruling out another trip to Pinewoods this year! Thanks for watching. Cheers, Dave & Helen.
Hi Perrin & Marilyn, as always, thanks for watching. Wells is great and well worth a visit. Hope you get booked in and have a fabulous time. ATB, Dave & Helen.
Hi you two. Got to admit , you do have some quaint little places, over there in Norfolk. Looking forward to visiting again. We leave on the edge of the peak district. Not far from Castleton. Great vlog as always thanks. ATB Joe & Tracey.
Hi Joe & Tracey, well I’m a Derbyshire boy (Chesterfield) so when it comes to great places you’re in a fab area too. Thanks very much for watching, it’s always appreciated. Thanks, Dave & Helen 👍
What a lovely thought, makes it all worth while doesn’t it. Great drone footage at the opening guys. We have a Pinewoods video out at the weekend , sorry we didn’t realise. We love Wells , back again soon with the Dolittle’s. Good quality VLOG that guys thank you. Best wishes H and M.
Hi there H&M, it was a lovely and most unexpected gift, just hope we find out who left them. You can't get enough of Wells, look forward to seeing your Vlog too. Thanks guys, Helen & Dave
Hello guys. New subbies here. Really fascinating vid. Love the vibe and loved the site and Wells. This is now on our list - you really sold it well despite the dreadful weather. We’ve seen you at the Poshcats rally and on the Frenchies too Looking forward to watching some more. Very enjoyable watch. 👍 That Sunset was just gorgeous 😍😍 Cheers Helen and Dave Dave & Sue.
Hi Dave & Sue, thanks for subscribing, much appreciated. Really enjoyed it at The Poshcats and The Frenchies are such great fun. Pinewoods is great and Wells is just fab. Thanks again, Helen & Dave
Great video again, thanks for sharing. been to Wells many times but not been there for that amazing sunset. How the weather can change so quickly. Enjoy your time ;))
So sorry we forgot your names but likewise, it was great to meet you. Hope you had a good stay in Cambridge (think it was Cambridge ha ha). Thanks for watching. ATB, Dave & Helen.
Yes we did go to Cambridge and had a brilliant time it was lovely to meet you both and can’t wait to go back to pinewoods it is expensive but brilliant site and location 😊
@@teresalongdon5213 Hi Teresa, must agree, the location is great and in the great big scheme of things it's still a cheap night away. Thanks for watching us. Cheers, Dave & Helen
I love your channel. I live in Florida and just visited North Norfolk for the first time at the end of May. Rented a cottage in Snettisham and drove all over. I bought two AA road maps in Fakenham for £5 each so £4 was a deal. My previous one was from 2006 and was falling apart and I paid £1.99 back in the day. The road map is great for planning holidays and I bring with me when I come over - you just never know if the tech will fail. Keep the videos coming!!
Hi Marianne, thanks for watching us and for your lovely feedback. North Norfolk is just great, we love it too. Beginning to wish aid bought one of those Atlases now! You’re also lucky to live in such an amazing place. Happy travels, Helen & Dave
Enjoyed your video , we went to pinewoods end of may as hadn’t been there for years it was ok , look forward to our favourite place vlog kelling heath , we go there often ,keep up the good work . Paul
Hi Paul, thank you very much for your comment and lovely feedback. Kelling Heath will be with you next Thursday at 4:30pm. Have to say, it was busy there (weekend) but a fabulous place. See you next week. Cheers, Dave & Helen.
ha ha ha ha, it's a bit of a job when you have to distract the wife in order to dodge the fudge!!! Hope you're well and thanks for watching. Cheers, Dave & Helen.
I love this place. I have always wanted to go there. I am up in north Norfolk in September so I will definitely be going for a visit. Thanks again Dave. ❤
We have had some wonderful times at Pinewoods in Wells. It’s always been very traditional but it’s certainly busier than ever. Thanks for another great video. Steve & Chris
A fun video as always. What a beautiful sunset and lovely clean quaint town beautiful homes around a lovely green park. Looking forward to seeing your next stop. Travel safe and stay Blessed ❤
Thanks Virginia, it's always good to hear from you. Glad you liked the video. Wells is a beautiful Norfolk fishing town but it gets its fair share of tourism these days. Stay tuned for another Norfolk site and a trip to Suffolk over the next two trips. Take good care. Dave & Helen.
We have just been to Cornwall and Devon and we have the same canopy as you, 2 of the straps had ripped off in the wind, we took it to a sail repair place in Plymouth and they repaired it for us whilst we waited and only charged £10. Made it much stronger. The wind and rain was relentless for our trip unfortunately. We’ve stayed at Seacroft in Cromer but never been to pinewood but will look into it, looks like a nice site.
Hi Leanne, crazy weather for July!! We love the sun canopy though. You did well to get that repair 👍 Pinewoods is worth a visit. Thanks for watching. ATB, Dave & Helen 👍
Thanks Mike & Kirsty, hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay. Getting the drone up was a bonus given the strong winds we had. Tried to film Kirsty having her early morning coffee on the quay but couldn't see her. Back in Mildenhall very, very soon. Take care, Helen & Dave
Hi Dave and Helen, we love watching your channel and have followed you for some time now. We have a question believe it or not regarding the large garden wind spinner that you mentioned in the video. You said you used to have one but!! What was the “but” please as we are interested in buying one very similar and wondered if you had had a problem with it at all. Sorry for the random question lol. Regards Carol and Martyn
During the 1970s Wells was said to have more council housing per head of population than anywhere in England. Today it is almost impossible for locals to buy or even rent a home in Wells. The social cleansing of Norfolk's small towns and villages is shameful. Still a nice place to holiday.
Yes, I remember during our first visits to Wells in the 70's it certainly wasn't the thriving, affluent town it is today and that's for all of the reasons you mention in your comment. I do agree, it's wrong that local people, born and bread in a place cannot make it a forever home for themselves. That says a lot about the country and world we live in, driven by commercialism and capitalisation. Thanks for watching, Dave & Helen. PS Yes, a great place to holiday :o)
Hi Dave & Lindsay, it really is quite beautiful at Wells. At £4 a chuck, I should have got that atlas !!! Hope all is well we will be heading over to catch up on your channel shortly (just home) Cheers, Helen & Dave
We stayed a few times at Pinewoods. Years ago when the tourers used to be in with the statics. Then a few times when the new touring site was constructed. Do you think the site fees are a tad expensive?
Hi Barbs, lovely site and of course we love Wells but would tend to agree it is a tad expensive but there isn't a lot of choice if you want to be close to Wells. We remember the tourers being in the main part of the park but we were not caravanning then. Thanks again and enjoy the rest of your weekend. Helen & Dave
We also use a Kampa canopy with sides as our first choice shelter. I’ve just added a set of Isabella storm straps to replace the Kampa provided straps. Much bigger, longer pegs and easy to adjust straps. Used aluminium climbing carabiners to attach a to the actual awning. What sort of pegs did you use on your sides?
Hi, we're the same, never used either of our two other awnings since we got this canopy, really pleased with it. I use heavy duty hard ground metal pegs. Thanks for watching. ATB, Helen & Dave
@HelenandDave used to have a seasonal pitch but now going to tour. Never towed a caravan, hope not too old to start, 73. Nice site next to banham zoo. Different noises.
Hi, glad you like the vlogs. Here is a link to the rugs on amazon and thanks for watching. ATB, Helen & Dave www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08H8HMCKB?linkCode=ssc&tag=onamzcarava0c-21&creativeASIN=B08H8HMCKB&asc_item-id=amzn1.ideas.2Z4I00LXFBTPX&ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ons_d_asin&th=1
I just bought a new Xplore 554 your videos really helped me to find nice places my son has a 2022 and lives in Lakenheath & stores it in the Mildenhall site in your video, if your filming you are actually stood in front of his van lol 😂 thanks I’ll look at the rugs. Take care and thanks for your brilliant videos. Steve
@@stevelemay878 You're welcome Steve. Small world Steve, we love getting down to Mildenhall, we always go a few times each year and already booked up for a 2024 trip.
Good video again Dave. I'd love to go to pinewoods. But when I found out there prices. Can't afford it. Can you recommend any other sites at Wells Going to West Runton end of month for 2 nights. Then onto Kessingland x 5 nights. I've joined a singles club for Campers. But would like to go to Wells prior to them
Hi David, thanks for watching. We really enjoyed it there but you're right, it's pricey! We have booked to go to Holkham Hall (5 minutes away) which has a pop up camp site, it opened on 12th July but you have to be a member of the caravan and Motorhome Club to use it. It was cheaper though. ATB, Dave & Helen
It was me! Popped round but you weren’t in! Glad you liked them, just a little thank you for all your excellent videos 👍
Oh brilliant! That was such a wonderful and unexpected surprise for which we are very grateful (including Bella, she ate them all). Glad you like the vids and hope you enjoyed Pinewoods as much as we did. Thanks again, Dave & Helen.
Edinburgh was my local when growing up,,glad you enjoyed my home town,,,,

I just bought a new Xplore 554 your videos really helped me to find nice places my son has a 2022 and lives in Lakenheath & stores it in the Mildenhall site in your video, if your filming you are actually stood in front of his van lol 😂 thanks I’ll look at the rugs. Take care and thanks for your brilliant videos. Steve
@@stevelemay878 You're welcome Steve. Small world Steve, we love getting down to Mildenhall, we always go a few times each year and already booked up for a 2024 trip.
Take care guys & many thanks. @@HelenandDave
Good video again Dave. I'd love to go to pinewoods. But when I found out there prices. Can't afford it.
Can you recommend any other sites at Wells
Going to West Runton end of month for 2 nights. Then onto Kessingland x 5 nights. I've joined a singles club for Campers. But would like to go to Wells prior to them
Hi David, thanks for watching. We really enjoyed it there but you're right, it's pricey! We have booked to go to Holkham Hall (5 minutes away) which has a pop up camp site, it opened on 12th July but you have to be a member of the caravan and Motorhome Club to use it. It was cheaper though. ATB, Dave & Helen
I think Helen has a Scottish accent…
Yes that’s correct, Edinburgh girl 👍
@@HelenandDave did you wear a kilt at your wedding?
Wow pricey…..
11 in the morning and we’re on the lash…‘don’t say that’ 😂😂😂
it wasn't cheap but we paid even more at the next site!
We don't really do getting on the lash.....lol
chat is this real
yep
