If you enjoyed this video, later in the year we stayed On two campsites in Central London, and documented the whole thing, it was so bizarre, here's the video ruclips.net/video/hYR26BSbEHs/видео.html
So appreciate your travels and sharing with us all. Sorry that the campsite was so costly and did not offer more. Such as WiFi. As always your attitude to seeing the positive is so inspiring in a world where many immediately get grumpy and make it worse for all. The next stop you made Harlyn Bay, the sea is beautiful with the sun out and windy just spectacular. Morgan is a champ. The small town is so cute with the all year round Christmas shop. How quaint. I watch your shopping as I am not a vegan and thought it would be so difficult. I see the nutrition value. Thank you for taking me on your traveling in Morgan. Loving it.
We stayed at Porth Beach a couple of years ago (£20 per night) Liam your not paying £50 a night for the view of the beach it’s because IMO we now have people that just rip us off, we now only ever stay on very small family run sites which are amazing
Liam and Janine, it has been ages since I've watched one of your videos. This video was fab and fun to watch. And I look forward to catching up on your journey. Debra
So nice to see you Debra, happy new year
Love your music choices..!
Hey guys, Firstly you guys are seriously the best humans. Honestly watching your videos makes so happy. Your life looks simply amazing. Apart from the hick ups you've had getting Morgan ready in the earlier days and a few dodgy moments along the way your life is an absolute joy to be part of. You are clearly living your best life. I have to say i am very envious every time i watch your videos. What i cant get my head around is how little time you spend in certain places. Its such a shame you cant stay longer but i know you're on a tight time frame. Going to Cornwall then back to the midlands is bonkers. I'm from the Midlands so i know how far the miles are that your travelling. Seriously keep living your best life as i'm vicariously living my life through you guys. Everything about your travelling from the places, the food and the people is amazing. Roll on Sunday for more videos. As always stay safe look after each other and stay cool. xx
That's great feedback for us thank you 😊
Love following you guys, such a great vibe and great production and editing, the care shows. (Bet you were well miffed with the sensor dust in this episode🤦♂️). Hope Morgan's work is going well and look forward to more adventures in 2023. 👍👏
Waah! This is the life, sun, sea, surf.The vegan camp out looked seriously good. I noticed it for the first time too, it getting slightly darker earlier. Great video. Your hard work is appreciated.
Thank you ❤️
I lived in Ann's cottage that was part of the old dairy right on "old polzeth " seafront. Literally within ten steps outside the door I would be walking in sand!
What I see here is awful from the village I remember 45yrs ago. In the winter the steep hill cut us off but biscuit tin lids sliding down icy roads was great! An no school bus lol huge bonfire on the beach an council putting it out two days later lol, all good memories.
Recently found your guys channel, very impressed with the videos! Can't wait to binge watch these amazing trips you's guys have achieved 😊
Thanks for joining us 🙏
Another brilliant video guys. You two have so much energy. Peace and love guys 🙏 ❤️
Loving the adventure guys, make sure you check out Porthcothan and Treyarnon Bay when you return to Cornwall. Never spend more than £20 - £26 a night at a site. Keep on sharing, I always like to see what you find next 👍👍 amazing.
Porth Beach campsites have always been expensive but wow! I only stayed there once for Run-To-The-Sun (long time ago). The Mermaid was always our favourite pub in the area but we preferred to camp at Watergate Bay.
Unimaginably gorgeous beaches. I never expected to see that in the UK. Thanks for taking us along, though I get exhausted with your pace. Stay safe and well.
Honestly, with the increased rates of global warming, UK tourism could quite easily promote their bailiwick as a tropical holiday destination, especially to the ex-colonies in the global South. And to the home folks; "Stay home and soak up the sunshine."
There is a gadget on eBay to hold the button in on those type of shower taps.
Or, just use a re-useable cable tie.
Excellent video yet again.
Thanks so much for taking the time to film and share.
Mack and Maggie, Huddersfield
Got to look out for that as it will be very valuable for van life haha
Action packed episode, so much going on it’s brilliant. I enjoyed every second.
🌼🌞 thank you
Love Porth & watergate Bay next door. I refuse to stay there £50 and no electric is truly shocking.
Cofton, Devon, in high season is around £40 with electric, free pool, all new and spotless. Shops, restaurants etc. Love seeing my part of the world.
Got a big smile on my face 😊
ABSOLUTELY SUPERB. I am in awe of how much you do, how much you travel and how dedicated you are to your channel. Iv said this before..... There are tv shows that do not have the same level of quality filming as u peeps. Oh and..... What an adventure with Liam having just lef the sea and then jumping into the driving seat for a long drive. And the issue with the fridge. Blimey what an adventure!!!!!!! Hope the festival was wonderful for u.
Namaste and Blessings to the best vloggers.
Kas ❤️🕉️❤️🕉️❤️🕉️❤️🕉️❤️🕉️❤️
You'd love the festival kas, thank you 😊
What a busy week you two have had at such beautiful beaches. ⛱ The views from above that you film Janine are just to die for! Amazing 😱❤❤😍
❤️🚐 thank you
Thoroughly enjoyed. Janine you looked so lovely for festival, which looked amazing... Food looked so good too.. Thank you for sharing 😃❤️
Have just looked up Porth Beach site out of curiosity , 1 night 2 people next month with electric up to £84 !! even without electric small pitch £72 ! but as long as people are prepared to pay these prices they will continue to go up.
Enjoy the vlog by the way, keep up the good work.
WOW just very very GREADY
Love watching as usual, particularly your drone shots of the coast!
✈️✈️✈️
Liam and Janine, I thoroughly enjoyed this video. The festival was so amazing. Janine looked beautiful in her dresses, and should wear them more often. Stay safe both of you. 💃🏼🕺🏼🔥⭐️🇬🇧⭐️🔥🕺🏼💃🏼
Thank you, you wonderful person ❤️
Wow from start to finish, great Video , has everything, so much in this episode loved it all !
Thanks for joining us
Welcome to our home town. Cornwall will rob you blind because of our gorgeous beaches/view. We did not know that the porth beach campsite was that EXPENSIVE. We are staying at the Sands Resort Hotel and Spa in September this year and it is not much more money than you paid. We shall not be staying there for that amount, well over priced. Great video again guys, we really enjoy following your travels.
Seeing your wooden body board reminds me of the boards our family had when I was a child. My father made one for each of us. Lots of great memories surfing in Pembrokeshire.
Great Vlog guys !! Beautiful Cornwall and the Vegan Campout all in one !! Fantastic ! Thankyou 😊😊😊
💚💚💚
Its great to see You guys Living the summer dream 🌞 freedom on the road ...superb beaches ...cool festivals ..awesome Locations..catching up with friends..good food..doesn't get better than that guys.
Janine you Looked stunning at the vegan campout😘 You 2 are great viewing thanks again for bringing us along .👍
Ah you are too kind ✌️💚
Interesting perspective of the UK...fun ride. You both have such a way of opening people's better selves.😀😀😀 I don't see either of you pissing off anyone. Love the board that doesn't pollute the ocean. Could have been worse--broken glass etc Yay, for napping, dollying up, tidying up and PPPPPARTYYYYYY!!!
Hi. Other thing I use is Tefal single electric hob. It needs 240v. Providing you use it on level 2. It will not eat your power bank. I cook on electric in evening and tea or coffee use gas, obviously gas lasts longer this way even in winter
Wish you Well
WOW one of the best videos so far .Thanks guys x
❤️❤️❤️
God this made me crave the beach! I think I will have to spend my weekend there! I feel for you when you got the campsite but it wasn't what you thought. It is so annoying when it happens! But glad you made the most of it. And my god that festival looked AMAZING! Janine looked gorgeous, as always, and it seemed like an amazing time. Really fun video!
Pleased you enjoyed it, there's nothing like the beach is there 😍
When you pitched up at Polzeath you looked exactly like how I feel when I get back to Treyarnon ( near Harlyn!) Nothing like getting back to your favourite beach in the camper van and getting the board out!
🤙🤙🤙
Please add this towards the cost of the campsite. Love you both. 🤍🤍🤍🇬🇧🤍🤍🤍
❤️❤️❤️ x million
Well first ever since 15 years of van life I paid for a camp site...on Dartmoor for £16 at this most delightful quirky wild paddock camp...with an oak surrounded paddock all to myself for two nights...miles from any main roads and the sound if nature and the river Teign close by...extraordinary place for walking in forest shade (in this crazy heat) along the course if the Teign to Fingle Bridge and back...delightful
busy campsites do nothing for me, the older i get the more i love peace but wow it all looked lovely xx thanks for sharing your adventures …. appreciate the hard work you put in for the videos xx great job guys xx
Thanks for joining us on a Wednesday and Sunday, means a lot ❤️
Janine you looked absolutely beautiful in that dress! The vegan campout looked amazing I hope you both had a wonderful time❤
We did thank you 😊
Your soundtrack is nice and straight to the point for people thats “going for what is calling them.” Cheers
Well guy's have just finished watching all your Cornwall vlogs, I lived in Falmouth for 10 years from 1972-1982 spent my teenage years all over Cornwall , (I know exactly where my van can go & not go lol) especially surfing the north coast. Had a Touring caravan 10 mins walk from the beach in Polzeath in a field permeant pitch from 95-21 when my boys were off school we spent all summer down there living the dream, surfing is 🏄 🏄the dream xx
Immense 🤙🤙
Wow that was an expensive campsite. Can't wait to see your reaction when you go abroad.campsites are cheaper.but you won't need to go on them as there are so many places to free camp.and parking aires. This is a lovely video. The beaches look wonderful. And the festival looked great.the food looked so tasty
Thank you for joining us for the Sunday session, see you on Wednesday at 8pm ❤️
The festival looked so much fun!
I stayed at Porth Beach holiday park in 2018. We hired a caravan and it was definitely on the expensive side. They made a point of mentioning to us on more than one occasion that we had to clean our caravan at the end of our stay, which wasn't necessarily a problem but certainly felt a lot different to the other holidays we've been on where they come in and blitz it after you've gone. That being said, I'd just found out my partner was pregnant with our first child at the time, I'll always remember that beach and the moment I saw a Kestrel in action hunting by the cliff/duned after I'd been to a local bird show - great memories. Anyways, there something really unique about your channel, I think it's the presentation of your videos and the feel of nostalgia you instil into me with these quaint places. Subscribed and you must, must, keep up the good work!
Thank you for the feedback, means the world to us 🙏
Wonderful, thank you. You must be around here now, Tintagel! Don’t forget to visit Vega in Tintagel, Buddhas Kitchen in Launceston and Roots Lounge in Bude. You will have gone by the time we hold our north Cornwall Vegan Fair in Bude on 13th August, which is a shame, as it should be fun.
Sorry I missed you at camp out! I did catch a glimpse of Morgan when I was walking the dog one evening and he really is massive!! Could spot him a mile away 🤣 and I could see our tent in your drone footage! We were in the disabled bit under the trees! I remember seeing your drone (obviously didn't know it was yours at the time) and I said to my dad he should go see if he could get a few lessons as he's had about 4 that he's crashed 🤣🤣 hope you had a fab weekend anyway! xx
🤣🤣🤣 it's an expensive sport
What wonderful weather you’ve had for your Cornwall trip. Great vlog again. Thanks muchly. x
Another great video. I can't see why you would pay £50 for that campsite either. You could get a hotel for that. The live video was cool. Shame about the abrupt ending, but I'm sure you will do another one at some point. It's lovely to see all the beaches (when I'm in the landlocked Midlands). I would love to live by the sea. Vegan Campout looks amazing. On my wish list too. Good to see you having some time for fun. Stay safe and happy travels x
Amazing, would be so cool to see you there 👍
Great videos guys,really enjoy them. I’m 70 and enjoy watching you both enjoy life. Go for it.
Thanks for watching 👍
Absolutely fabulous video. As for the campsite, I wouldn't even think about paying £50 for one night even with electric. The festival looked great fun.
Thank you, was a fab festival
I truly enjoyed this vlog too.. The concert, food and fun at the end, was everything.. Live life to the fullest ✨️...
🤙✌️🍳
I think it's £50 because it's a prime tourist location and it's a holiday park, they're never cheap, we stayed in the campsite right next to Hollywell Bay a few years ago, it was beautiful there!
Ooo nice, really good location
Woke up today & watched your video with a morning cuppa.
Love your channel 🙌
☕️👍
Been watching you now for a few weeks you give a lot of content in your vlogs i find them very interesting and they seem to keep coming regularly. You must put a lot of work into them.
Thank you, we do work hard 💪 🙏
You drove past one of the best campsites between Porth and Harlyn!
Bedruthan Steps Camping! Where the Tipis were!
14 acre field on the cliffs, park where you like! Stunning!
Next time 👍
Bodyboard - Cool. Have you checked out Skimboarding ?. Great video as usual. The festival looked Bangin'. Thanks .Be Lucky. 😀
Yeah someone said I can use the body board as a skimmer too
I'm blessed to live in Cornwall, not far from Polzeath. Love watching your videos 😊
You are so lucky
@@ThoseHappyDays you guys are the lucky ones... Living the dream! 🙏
That was awesome guys thoroughly enjoyed it and the drone shots were stunning. Thank you. xxxxx
Lots of wonderful beaches and beautiful sunshine☀️☀️. Looking lovely Janine and Liam👌🏽👌🏽. Vegan campout looked amazing so much fun and yummy food😋😋. Thank you for another great Vlog Liam and Janine, see you Sunday🥰☀️
Thank you for joining us for the Sunday session, see you on Wednesday at 8pm ❤️
Hiya guys, next time you are down that way please visit Pentewan sands st Austell
An awesome film, i hope you had a really good time. Have a good week.
You too 👍💚
As always love your vids as they are real. £50!! Next time stay at Gwithian at churchtown farm it’s right on the beach and you would have loved the jam pot cafe. Loving the series though.
Just wanted to say though get yourselves into Europe it’s so so much easier, you will have no problems at all with Morgan. Get the camperstop book and app and also ACSI card too so if you do need to stop on a campsite for recharge/laundry day etc you get at much reduced price. Trust us the UK is the hardest country to travel through in a camper… Europe is covered in Aire’s and Stellplatz, loads of places to fill water and drop grey and black waste etc.
love the channel.. look forward to next episode.
Just seen my works van. Was a pleasure meeting you briefly as you pulled up in Perranporth right where i was working the other week. Wish i had a selfie with you both.
Oh no. Did i loose your comment and what looked like a whatsapp number ? Arrgghhh
Another super vlog from Janine & Liam and love 🥰 it. Yes I think you spent too much on that campsite it wasn't worth £50 per night even though it was on a beach and you weren't getting free wi-fi ( I would expect WiFi to be included). Great that both of you survived the high temperatures. Keep safe & well. Love 💕💞 Janine & Liam.
At least we didn't have to pay extra for showers haha
You guys put the hours in and cover the miles 😆 . Another fab video cheers for that 👍
👍 thanks man
The thing is that once parked there you could just stay there & walk to the beach each day. Or walk into town for supplies. For a family that is an economical holiday, as long as the sun shines. If it starts raining you might need to go in search of something else to amuse the kids.
Comming from a famous surfer family, you can look it up in the Guiness Book of World Records-David Nuuhiwa Sr. (my Mom’s brother) and David Nuuhiwa Jr (my cousin and son yes of David Sr.), the body board is it a different one but absolutely makes sense agains those foam filled ones that are not biodegradable and pollute the ocean. Glad to hear your support. Please leave any information you can. Cheers.
Absolutely brilliant vlog....I loved everything about it. You both just fill the screen with sunshine. Thank you x
🌼🌞💚
Get yourselves up to Kilvrecht campsite near Kinloch Rannoch. It's about £12 a night without the leccy hookup. Quite basic facilities but reflected in the low price. Or Sheigra beach. No facilities at all, but it's a £5 honour donation.
Know all of those lovely roads intimately from my many years of travel to my fave county x
Was literally on the beach up the road from you on this day! At Watergate Bay! Quite amazed by that. We were also staying in Looe this same week so really been enjoying your trip round these parts!
Ah nice 👌
It was so nice to meet you both at the camp out and you made our day when we spotted our little Maggie in the video. See you next year 💚💚
Ah you guys were the best, great advocates for veganism ❤️ Can't wait to see you all again 😀
Wow great podcast, fantastic festival 👍👍🙏
Hollywell Bay my favourite beach in the world. Every few years the old church of supposedly of St Piran becomes visible with the shifting sands. A magical place for sure.
Woah!!!
Hi Liam and Janine, we know Harlyn bay so well as take our tourer to Padstow touring park. You can do a great walk along the coast from there to Trevone Bay. We were there in June. Polzeth ,as the locals say , great walk from top car park along to Daymer Bay. Really enjoyed this vlog, thankyou. Safe travels xx
Just Love watching your vlogs so much.. Never fails to make me smile. As Always, Much Love & Happy Trails Mx
❤️❤️❤️
Loved this video… blimey £50 campsite with no electric 😮. Like you said the location must have been the reason. Festival looked great 👍
Porth beach is great but ive always stayed 5 mins down the road at Bedruthern Steps pop up campsite about £10 per night the views and sunsets are unreal !
Another great video I can’t get any work done!
LOL
Thanks for making the videos
Take care and stay safe
🔥❤️
Ha ha brilliant week - that festival looks amazing - I’m soooo hungry now. 😂 hope you are having a fabulous week this week too - looking forward to Sunday 😀
Thanks Fiona, have a great weekend
@@ThoseHappyDays you too xx
The Best, thank you 🥰 always fun tagging along with you two.. always nicely put together Janine.. an some of that food looked totally scrumptious 🎉✨💖
Legend thank you 😊
@@ThoseHappyDays 👍🚚💚
☺️ You were only 20mins away from us in Leicestershire. We live in Market Harborough! 😃 Looks like you had a fab time. Loved seeing the beaches we have been to in Cornwall. We especially love Mawgan Porth beach! ❤️💖
💚👍
when holiday there we couldn't get 4G or WiFi with one exception Perranporth beach the watering hole . appreciated tar love Cornwall 💘 ❤ 💕 💗 💓 💖 💘 ❤ 💕 💗 from Scottish grandad.
Hi Guys. When you return to the South West, there's a stunning toll road that runs from the Valley Of The Rocks outside Lynton along the North Devon coast that feels very special and has some of the best views I've ever seen. Might be worth a punt. Just avoid Porlock Hill in the same area unless you really trust your brakes. Much love, Jon xx
Hi mate I think we saw it! Check in tomorrow's video if it's the one
This was awesome! I was on the live stream so good to get the background info. That's really terrible that site cost that much and you had to pay for the wifi which didn't work well in the end anyway. Way to keep your chins up!
The festival looks amazing!!
Was ace, thanks so much for watching
Another great video, very expensive campsite and no electrical hookup. Keep up the good videos. You always seem in a hurry, I thought van life would be slow, with all the time in the world!
Van life and travel is however you want it
That was very good thank you we spent our youth in Cornwall in the sixties thank so much for the memories
Pleased you enjoyed it, thank you for joining us twice a week 😀
Hi Liam and Janine, I enjoyed your video so much, especially since I live in Newquay! I relocated to Cornwall from London about ten years ago, and I just love it here. Wishing you all the best on your adventures! (New subbie here) 🏄♀️ 🌊 🏖🧜👒🚐
Thank you for subbing 🔥😍
Hi those happy days, we stopped at a campsite in Aldeburgh suffolk, 20 mins walk to seafront £38 no elec. Travelled up to Norfolk 5 mins from seafront £14.we find campsites can be very noisy in the evenings, can't beat free quite parkups👍we are loving this road trip, the sea is so clear looking😎
Nice to see Perranporth again. Not been for many years. You certainly look healthy and I can see how much you enjoy this part of the country.
❤️❤️❤️
I was crossing the Alps and thought I had secured a 30 litre water container, only to find a flood after crossing!
Fun van life!
Ah no way 😲😲😲
If I had one ounce of your get up and go I would have got up and gone. Not sure about the wife, but hey, we can't take everyone, can we? Delicious episode this week. Padstow, what a place to visit. Awesome location. Brilliant vid. Brilliant vibe and brilliant company. ROD UK
Legend thanks mate 👍
Great video as always, Porth is the nearest beach to where I live, so sorry to have missed you! Janine, can I ask where your lovely cardigan in this video is from? x
Porth is my favourite beach in the world, that was my childhood holiday destination and I went back in May with husband. It’s just gorgeous. If you ever go back make sure to do the cliff walk on the right side of the beach xxx
You are right, it's beautiful there
Janine you looked so pretty at the festival. Loved the video,brilliantly filmed and edited as always.Thanks for sharing guys xx
❤️❤️❤️
I totally agree with you guys about the cost of the campsites in Great Britain I think certain aspects are nice but still way overpriced for what you get.
💯
Beautiful beaches and such quaint little beach towns! Thanks again for another fun adventure. Safe travels!
Just now getting a chance to watch this! My granddaughter has been suffering with a kidney stone and I've had to watch kids. On top of that, the baby's cutting molars and has been miserable, bad week! We're also getting ready for the beach ourselves and will be watching Sunday morning from our deck on the Atlantic Ocean! 🙃
Ooo sounds like you need the break 🌞
We stayed on that site above the beach on the 2nd pitch from the coast path and loved it
Family from Cornwall came and stayed with us it’s idyllic
Nice 🤙✌️
Greatness!! Loved this episode ❤️
🔥❤️
Absolutely epic. The festival looked superb. A must do next year
👏👏👏
omg wish i could type had to edit this to make sense
I’m in USA and home bound so it’s wonderful to travel with you and see your beautiful country. I had no idea it was so gorgeous
👍❤️
You're both rockin that tan and that festival looked really fun with Janine looking like the belle of the ball!
🌞🌞🌼🌼
