I love this channel. They are my favourite 'Northiners 0n Tour'. It's a breath of fresh air to see RUclipsrs paying for campsites and attractions and not morning about the price of everything, Keep up the good work guys
Great video. I could not have gone in that cable car, when I was younger about 21 and 5ft 8 and a half I went to Filey with my then husband we walked up the mountains there and I had to be airlifted down, it's the first time I was told I had vertigo, it was awful. I couldn't even crawl my head was spinning and I was dizzy. I'm now 66 and 5ft 6 and a half and still hate heights. Yes I've lost 2 inches somewhere along my life lol. Xx
We live not far from lickpenny, loads more to see around here, agree with the person who suggested Castleton its beautiful when they do the lights for Christmas, and it really is dog friendly, there are some great pubs as well as amazing walks.
I hate heights. Last time I was forced on to one of those cable cars, I spent the whole ride admiring the floor 😮 Keep the voice overs btw, they're brilliant😂 😂
Another awesome video I love your take on life and I totally get being scared of heights. They give me the heebie-jeebies. I don’t do heights. But I do do Marks & Spencer’s love their food love their clothes. Have the best of times enjoy your weekend.
@@StchristopherofatlantisIt’s not just any old M@S clothes it’s Andy’s M@S clothes 😅. I think he should model them for the over erm 21s ( being polite 😂) in a cable car . No white trousers though.
Great Video once again, I love Matlock and have been many times but I've never dared get in those cable cars, dam they are high up, It was lovely to see what its all about, the stopping and swaying, knowing you could fall at anytime lol. Marks and Spencers, its so nice to hear that sooner than M&S. Dodgy Taxi driver, mmmm where's he think he is Londonium?
Love Matlock bath, Only been there on Motorbikes and its really busy on weekends. Loved the cable car when crossing above the road its 600 ft in the air !!!!!
Hi you 4. Great video brought back loads of memories some good some bad. Remember one Sunday on the bike with Barbara really caning it (Honda Blackbird). Parked the bike up walked to the Station Hotel, Barbara fell down a kerb and broke all 3 bones in her ankle WHOOPS. Anyway still loving my hoodie get loads of comments from people who like it Love to all Barbara and Brian xx
It slows down in the middle as it allows people to get on and off the other two sets of cars at the top and bottom. Last time I went I think it was £15 for two but there was nowt at the top except the mine. Great video.
Hey guys loved this video. I’m with Andrew don’t like big wheels, cable cars, bridges and a few other modes of transport. Staying in Edinburgh my dad used to tell me that the forth railway bridge (look it up) that you went over the high bits and not straight through. My brother told me going through the Tyne tunnel that the water running down the walls was the tunnel going to collapse instead of it just being moisture🤢🤢 they really knew how to push my buttons 🤪 more of your viewers are loving your quick wit like us, Will is sitting here laughing his head off🤣. When do you do you test Andrew, good luck safe travels Jan and Will x
Great video again 👏 Andy you were very brave to go on the cable car my husband would have stayed at the bottom and let me go on my own. Look forward to next week's 🌞
Great vlog brought back memories as we stayed at lickpenny 9 years ago and I can’t remember it being such a big site, your braver than me as you wouldn’t catch me on the cable car 🫣look forward to your next trip ❤️
Fantastically put together! Only been there in summertime and it was packed with bikers. It is so funny watching Andy terrified of heights but truthfully it is very courageous of him to go through with it. Claire revelled in your uneasy state of mind and captured many memories...... Great guys X.
Nice video, I watched your Tenby video it was under the heading "Most People Don't Realise This Is In Wales" Glad you found the street you was looking for. I have Family from that town, great you love history. The Americans where stationed in Tenby before the D-Day landings up to 5000 Gis The Belgrave Hotel in Tenby was the American HQ, Its still a Hotel today, We still have a family house in Tenby and we use to have a seaside apartment before the family sold it in 2017. So know that area very well. In Carew just up the road from Tenby there is WW2 , Raf airfield thats now a museum. At the time of poor times in the 1860s alot of people left Wales to settle in Pennsylvania . That why Pennsylvania is the mining capital of America.
Lovely site Lickpenny. Its about 15 years since we last stopped there. When we visit that area now we stop on a CL site in Crich near the tram museum. The museum is worth a visit and it's dog friendly. And as a member of CAMH CLUB its buy one ticket get one free
Another great video, we love Matlock and Matlock Bath , parking not easy in the motorhome, taxi sounded expensive to me, just waiting on this tour of Barnsley 👍🏼😆😆
Only found your channel last month, think you came up when I searched for Rhyl as we live not far away. Watched your visit there and we are now subscribers. Love the way you give facts about places you visit and find it very informative. Love your sense of humour and one liners especially the talk over you do. Keep up the good work guys. As for Matlock, never been but we might give it a visit now. Love your music as well. Stay safe ❤
Thanks andy and Claire another funny and informative vlog. Claire you should of rocked the cable car only a little bit just to see andy's look on his face . 😂
@@Stchristopherofatlantis We are doing well thanks - hope you are both getting a bit of chill out time between work and YT - love the comedy and banter 😂 Funnily enough we had visit to MH recently via Leeds (camper related) - mainly for Pizza - my better half had never been 😀👍 - busy busy busy 🐝🐝
Great vlog guys. Matlock seems quite nice. Though quite busy for a Sunday. Park looks lovely with all the autumnal colours. Thank you for showing us around. Take care and stay safe.😊
Fantastic vlog lots of info and lots of hilarious highlights. What were you shaking like Andrew 😂😂😂. I’ve split my sides and my head has fallen off 😂😂😂. Loved it. ❤. Shame about the taxi not right really 😢 take care ❤
Well done you two another excellent episode of your travels..bit of a cheek that charging you to use your card even though it’s only 50p that would have annoyed me to…Andy you were a brave boy going up them heights when you don’t like it..but what touched me the most about it was the reassuring way Claire openly laughed and mocked you to your face when you were shaking like a sh*t*ing dog🤣🤣brilliant Claire 🤣🤣👍🏻
luv the vid, I'm not that far from Matlock and someone must have said the only place to be for a biker on a Sunday is Matlock Bath where you will see a hundred or more bikes. it could be like a showroom for your next purchase. and with narrow streets up the hills there must be a twichell or two.
We will be using our motorhome over winter BUT..... We're off to sunny Spain to volunteer at an animal rescue centre over Christmas New Year. We've been twice before to BARC animal rescue near Alicante and will then be travelling around Spain January and February. Ferry booked to Santander 5th December Thanks for keeping us entertained Diane & Bob (met you in Cleethorpes)
Love the vlog. My husband used to live in Matlock it is a beautiful place to visit. Always wanted to do the heights of Abraham but always gone ‘HOW MUCH!!!!’ But that was 2 adults and 2 kids. May have to ditch the kids 😂 I think this is the same for most taxi’s as the drivers are self employed and can charge what they like also depending on time of day. That however is extortionate we’re there no buses ? My hubby would have made us walk 3 mile rather than pay that 😂 We were in the Lake District half term week and it was stunning highly recommend the Derwentwater C&CC site as you can walk into town from there and get a bus for £2 a journey anywhere in the Lakes as far as Lancaster. Also Windermere was good to stay at too for walking into the centre. It is so dog friendly there too as it is full of walkers. Won’t manage anything more this side of Christmas due to dance shows etc but hoping to get day trips and Feb half term somewhere.
Hi. We planned to walk but didn’t reload it was on busy road which we don’t like doing 😬 I will look this site up, Thankyou for the recommendation 👍☀️☀️
Great vlog. Very interesting. Well done Andy for going up👍You really looked terrified at times. I went on the ferris wheel in Liverpool and it stopped at the top. I wish i hadnt looked down 🫣. Then all someone could say was, "it's like final destination" 😢.
My other half recons Andrew & myself must have the same barber !! Another witty vlog guys. Thought campsite was on the expensive side, but to be honest looked very nice. 👍
As a true yorkshire man, taxis, coffees expensive trip! intrigued about the veg room 😂. Great vlog guys did not think matlock was that interesting 👍🏻👌🏻
Hi guys, funny old thing I am the same as Andy, I don't like heights but love flying....5ft off the ground in a helicopter is awesome !! Have you ever flown in a helicopter Andy? Brilliant vlog again and Matlock looked a Good place to visit.... Cable cars are a thing to dread unless you are Claire or Lyn 😂..... Chees Andy & Lyn.
Very expensive day out for you guys. Heights of Abraham brougbt back terrifying memories for me, went on that when it first opened and spent the whole ride up on the floor of the car 😂😂😂
I was saying I'd have pooped myself up there and shared your concerns, Andy, at which point Mr D says, "You couldn't sunbathe topless in those gardens." I knew you'd appreciate that comment. 😂
Another great video. Just to let you know, the taxi driver broke the law, they're not allowed to charge for card payments, just something for you to remember next time. Keep up the great work, we love the comedy in your videos.
Ooh it’s years since we’ve been to Matlock , born about 40 miles away . Can’t decide between Bakewell Tart or Pudding, both yummy so would have had both like you did 😊Welcome to the M&S group Andrew, I find their jeans really comfy and right length being a short arse! Wait until you’re a bit older still, you will be wearing plasticine coloured chinos 🤣x
I know that some like the peace of sites literally in the middle of nowhere, but we always look for sites that we can walk or cycle into the local village or town, or have a good bus service. Unfortunately a lot of our experience is that this means commercial sites rather than C&MC.
Brilliant video! That taxi was a right royal rip off! Think they’re taking advantage of tourists aka you! Think the only places you can park a motorhome in Matlock & Matlock bath is at the railway stations. Love the M&S gear, nothing wrong with it once you hit a certain age 😂 When I used to travel a lot on the m1 with work years ago there was always a stretch of the m1 that stunk of TCP, junction 29a, near chesterfield. But never smelt it in Matlock. Lickpenny is on my list of sites to visit, apparently they have a pie van on a Friday night, photos of the food look yummy.
Cheers guys excellent review as ever, have to try it ourselves soon. As far as the taxi goes, you should of considered a 10 minute walk to Dovehole Lane, just googled the bus service to Matlock quite regular along the A615, £4 each way for the 2 of you = £8 return, you paid £28 in taxis, you could of spent £20 on Madri in Matlock 🤣🍻
@ Google is your friend not the reception, just Google bus stop on Google maps, tap on the bus stop closest to you, it shows the bus times👍 looks frequent to me 👍 let you know when I’ve tried it, if I’m not drunk on the price difference 🤣
By Eckers, this brought back sum memories, Went theer wunce and visited t' caves anorl.. they wer reight gud. Well worth t' money. It wer a shame tha culdn't tek Pablo and Dora darn tho' tha'd a reight enjoyed thissens.

Hi I've contacted you before about the song at the end of your videos I can find it in my RUclips history could you please let me know who sings it again hope yous are well love the videos rake care
We live not to far from Matlock. The smell you was getting is probably from the new gravel footpaths that they have recently laid. They have a resin base if I remember correctly. We went in October when they was refurbishing the park. They also refurbished all the seats in the park.
Hahaha when the cable cars were first opened the house by the ladders had a lady living there who liked to sunbathe minus clothing. Soon stopped though once one or two had an eyeful! Bet you'll be there in Matlock Bath with the bike on a Sunday now along with the other million bikers!
Great to see you somewhere local-ish. I think you made the right choice not to walk on Giddy Edge, it is very exposed! There are a couple of great places very close by, namely Cromford and Crich which would fill a weekend visit to Lickpenny.
@@Stchristopherofatlantis Crich has a famous, working Tramway museum and the village is where the TV series Peak Practice was filmed. Cromford s just a pretty !title village.
Feel your pain, I'm a fellow height-hater haha.... took my 10 year old on one of those smallish eye things in Belfast and pressed the emergency button about 20 foot off the ground. My son was sooo embarrassed haha! I also hate flying but booked myself a lesson for my 30th birthday in the hope of facing my fears.. I was ok at the time but it didn't really cure my fear of flying. I've also been in a helicopter twice, but wouldn't do it again. I wouldn't recommend the Laxey Wheel either, Debs
Hellooo Guy's, Visited lickpenny before the club took over, hope they don't spoil it, veg prep area is where Jo gets ready for a night out 😂. Love Matlock but not as much as watching Andy on the cable car 😵💫. Taxis in that area are expensive we also found that out 🤑. Take care and travel safe 🙏. Paul and Joanne 👍 ❤ X PS Andy, those big boy bikes will be you in a month or so 🤞
When I got Ubers to take my cat to and fro from the vet the exact same route on same day back and forth was also 2 different prices. Don't know why, same distance each way.🤷♀️
Great video, guys. There are plenty of quick gags in there, mind you, I was half expecting Andy to say "Nice ass" at 09:39 😂😂 Loved the views, even though I'm not a fan of heights either. Andy.
We haven’t used a taxi for a long time so don’t know the going rate but that seems extortionate for such a short journey. It’s a pity the sites don’t have a deal with a local taxi company. I bet Andrew is still smarting from it like a true Yorkshireman. 😂
I was going to make a joke about only us veggies know about the secret veg prep room, or about Andy looking still fossils 🤣 but nope all i thought all video was the ghost on the swing at the start! No Matlock for me 😳
I love this channel. They are my favourite 'Northiners 0n Tour'. It's a breath of fresh air to see RUclipsrs paying for campsites and attractions and not morning about the price of everything, Keep up the good work guys
Hello. Thankyou very much for your kind comment. We are campsite kinda guys 👍👍🚐🚐❤️❤️ Have a great week

Hi. Crikey, were you ok?
We love Filey, one of our favourite places
Have a great evening 👍👍
Great again, guys love it
Glad you enjoyed it
You two crack me and the wife up 🤣🤣🤣 great video.
Glad to hear it 😂👍👍👍👍
Love the voice overs…. Just brilliant! Cheers!
She is good isn’t she 👍😂

Thanks for taking the time to 👍
Great video, Andy the gags are getting funnier again. ❤️👍👍👍👍😂

You two are hilarious… keep up the good work, love your channel
Thanks so much!! 👍❤️
Think I'll be visiting just for the cable car journey ✨️👍✨️
👍👍
Andy, you were very brave to face your fear in the cable car. Good on 'ya! You, actually, were hilarious. Made for good content!
Glad you enjoyed it 👍👍👍
We live not far from lickpenny, loads more to see around here, agree with the person who suggested Castleton its beautiful when they do the lights for Christmas, and it really is dog friendly, there are some great pubs as well as amazing walks.
We do love Castleton 👍

Brilliant loved it I'm with Andy hate cable cars since Susan thought it was funny to start swinging the one we were in at Alton towers many years ago
Sorry to say Ray, that we laughed at that 😂😂😂
Once went to see the Matlock illuminations. Absolutely rammed it was. Nice to see it on a quieter day.
Great place 👍
That Taxi, is the same size as the micro camper okie full lime in lol.

Lovely autumnal colours, my favourite season.
Same here!

Think the only places you can park a motorhome in Matlock & Matlock bath is at the railway stations. Love the M&S gear, nothing wrong with it once you hit a certain age 😂 When I used to travel a lot on the m1 with work years ago there was always a stretch of the m1 that stunk of TCP, junction 29a, near chesterfield. But never smelt it in Matlock. Lickpenny is on my list of sites to visit, apparently they have a pie van on a Friday night, photos of the food look yummy.
Pie van?!?! We missed that. D’oh 😂👍
Cheers guys excellent review as ever, have to try it ourselves soon. As far as the taxi goes, you should of considered a 10 minute walk to Dovehole Lane, just googled the bus service to Matlock quite regular along the A615, £4 each way for the 2 of you = £8 return, you paid £28 in taxis, you could of spent £20 on Madri in Matlock 🤣🍻
Hi. We asked at reception and was advised that the bus was not reliable and to take a taxi… 😬
@ Google is your friend not the reception, just Google bus stop on Google maps, tap on the bus stop closest to you, it shows the bus times👍 looks frequent to me 👍 let you know when I’ve tried it, if I’m not drunk on the price difference 🤣
When you pass your bike test Andy take a ride down to Matlock Bath loads of bikes there at weekends 🏍️
That's the plan! 👍 Can’t wait
Lovely place ❤ Claire my birth stone is an Emerald also 😊
All the best people have Emerald birth stones 👍👍👍👍
@@Stchristopherofatlantis Me too ! X

You will have to go matlock on your bike x
Yes yes that’s the plan 👍
You will be able to do Matlock on your motorbike soon 😁

We ran out of time 🙁

Hi. It’s called World Goes By, the band is Houses on the hill
Thanks very much it's really appreciated
My favourite sites when it was in private hands. Doubt we shall be returning ..
Hi 👋
We’ve just stayed at Carsington Water, taxi fare from there to Belpar nearby was £35-40, Uber was £16
Crikey!!!!!!!!!
We live not to far from Matlock. The smell you was getting is probably from the new gravel footpaths that they have recently laid. They have a resin base if I remember correctly. We went in October when they was refurbishing the park. They also refurbished all the seats in the park.
Hi. Yes I bet that was it! The park was great, we enjoyed it and the lovely views.
Great Vlog as ever but have you ever watched the Subtitles with your videos 😂😂 ( we lost what Claire was saying with the cake bit 😂) 🤔🫣
Ooosh no we had best check that 😂😂😬😬
Went there 2 years back. Parked up the top. Had calves like popeye by the end of the weekend 😂
😂😂
Hahaha when the cable cars were first opened the house by the ladders had a lady living there who liked to sunbathe minus clothing. Soon stopped though once one or two had an eyeful! Bet you'll be there in Matlock Bath with the bike on a Sunday now along with the other million bikers!
😂😂👍
An epiphany, finally I understand. You can't swerve. I totally agree. I'd also add hot air balloon's.
😂😂
So Claire tell us about Tinker's Shaft 😉
😂😂
I like Derby.
👍
Great to see you somewhere local-ish. I think you made the right choice not to walk on Giddy Edge, it is very exposed! There are a couple of great places very close by, namely Cromford and Crich which would fill a weekend visit to Lickpenny.
Hi. Have you been to Giddy Edge? We will look these up, Thankyou 👍👍
@@Stchristopherofatlantis I'm like Andy, heights are for the birds! 🤣
@@Stchristopherofatlantis Crich has a famous, working Tramway museum and the village is where the TV series Peak Practice was filmed. Cromford s just a pretty !title village.
Feel your pain, I'm a fellow height-hater haha.... took my 10 year old on one of those smallish eye things in Belfast and pressed the emergency button about 20 foot off the ground. My son was sooo embarrassed haha! I also hate flying but booked myself a lesson for my 30th birthday in the hope of facing my fears.. I was ok at the time but it didn't really cure my fear of flying. I've also been in a helicopter twice, but wouldn't do it again. I wouldn't recommend the Laxey Wheel either, Debs
Hi Debs, Height haters rule 😂😂
@@Stchristopherofatlantis I'm ok then... only 5 foot 1 and a half 😄. My OH is 6 ft 3"
Hellooo Guy's,
Visited lickpenny before the club took over, hope they don't spoil it, veg prep area is where Jo gets ready for a night out 😂.
Love Matlock but not as much as watching Andy on the cable car 😵💫.
Taxis in that area are expensive we also found that out 🤑.
Take care and travel safe 🙏.
Paul and Joanne 👍 ❤ X
PS Andy, those big boy bikes will be you in a month or so 🤞
Hello. Jo must scrub her Christmas sprouts like me 😂😂😂😂🌱
He wasn’t too happy at the time!!
His test is “very” soon
@Stchristopherofatlantis
Yes she's a good scrubber 🤣
❤️
‘Dross’ never😂 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
When I got Ubers to take my cat to and fro from the vet the exact same route on same day back and forth was also 2 different prices. Don't know why, same distance each way.🤷♀️
Doesn’t make sense does it?!
Great video, guys. There are plenty of quick gags in there, mind you, I was half expecting Andy to say "Nice ass" at 09:39 😂😂 Loved the views, even though I'm not a fan of heights either. Andy.
We had to cut loads out this week for fear of being cancelled 😂😂
@Stchristopherofatlantis I understand that. I have a very weird sense of humour and add things, then think, "I better not leave that in" 😂
We haven’t used a taxi for a long time so don’t know the going rate but that seems extortionate for such a short journey. It’s a pity the sites don’t have a deal with a local taxi company.
I bet Andrew is still smarting from it like a true Yorkshireman. 😂
… yes… 👋😂😂😂😂
I was going to make a joke about only us veggies know about the secret veg prep room, or about Andy looking still fossils 🤣 but nope all i thought all video was the ghost on the swing at the start! No Matlock for me 😳
Hello👋 👋👋
