Nice video, it must be a nightmare to tow an eight metre wide caravan. 😂😜
Thanks for that. Great to be given a view from someone who actually lives with their van. They look so different when they've got their stuff in situ. It answers questions that run through your mind while watching others' vlogs in empty cvans, mo hos, vans etc.
Hi Yvonne, pleased you enjoyed the video & found it interesting 👍🏻 Many thanks for watching, Keith & Michele.
At the moment back and forth between Motorhome and Campervan, the Auto Trail V Line is on our shortlist, we like the wrap around settee and garage space. Ian thank you for sharing some very useful information. Keith & Michelle great video.
Many thanks for watching Thomas, We’re delighted you found our video helpful, good luck with your search for the right vehicle. Sending our best wishes wishes to you, Keith & Michele.
Some very useful honest information from Ian. Thanks for sharing 👍
Hi Paul, We must agree, Ian was so helpful. Hopefully it will give people an open & honest insight into owning a campervan. Thanks for watching, Keith & Michele.
Great video, interesting video really smart campervan look forward too next video 👍👍

Hi Andy, Welcome to our channel 😀 Many thanks for your kind words & for watching 👍🏻 Keith & Michele.
Nice little chat enjoyed it solar panel top tip thanks
Hi Greg, Delighted you enjoyed the video, thanks for watching 👍🏻 Keith & Michele.
We are looking at one like this so finding this video is great
Hi Caroline, Glad you’ve found this video useful, hoping you find the right campervan 👍🏻 Thanks for watching, Keith & Michele.
Really useful interview, thank you, very kind of Ian to be so forthcoming about the pros and cons. Looks like a great campervan!
I am an experienced caravanner considering a switch to a campervan/motorhome, and your insights were invaluable.
Please may I ask about insulation in camper vans? I'm sold on the camper van concept for warmer weather touring. However, we'd also be using it for off season weekend breaks in Snowdonia. I have a Hymer caravan which is well insulated with what Hymer terms PUAL insulation, and I know that this is also sandwiched into the shell of Hymer motorhomes. However, I can't work out what kind of insulation you get with camper vans, and how they would cope with cold weather touring. Any advice gracefully appreciated!
Hi Hywel, Many thanks for your kind words, delighted you enjoyed our video & found it useful. Unfortunately, we don’t have experience of camper vans, we’ve only ever had caravans, so we are unable to advise you on your query. It’s probably best to contact a dealer or manufacturer directly & they will be able to answer any queries you have. Hope this helps, with thanks again, Keith & Michele.
@@keithandmichele Thanks - sorry, my question was really directed at Ian, in the hope that he might pick this up.
Over the last 40 years I’ve had caravans (Tourers & Statics) and now a Motorhome. I feel there are pluses and minuses for both.
If I could afford it I’d have a caravan for longer holidays staying on a site and a Motorhome for 2 to 3 days away or for touring around the country or abroad on an extended holiday. 🏖. But that’s. Lottery money 🤣😂 Great video👍🏼
Hi Andrew, That sounds absolutely perfect 😀 Must remember to get our Lottery tickets! Very much looking forward to the time when we can get out again 🤞 Best wishes to you, stay safe, Keith & Michele.
Really helpful video thank you. Storage ideas always needed - could you recommend which brand of microfibre towels are the best?
Hi JT. Many thanks for your kind words. We purchased our Microfibre towels from Mountain Warehouse. Good prices and you get a discount if members of the Caravan and Motorhome Club. Sending our best wishes, Keith & Michele
Lovely van
Thanks for watching LadyLexie A 👍🏻 Keith & Michele.
Picking ours up next Monday 😁😁😁😁
Huge congratulations Simon 🥳 Wishing you many happy travels & adventures, Keith & Michele.
👍 are you at NEC ? I’m going today Fri 18th. Thanks for another great video.
Hi Colin, Many thanks for your kind words, not there today but have a great day, don’t take your credit card 😆 Keith & Michele.
My wife thinks the most dangerous piece of equipment I have with me is a Pen, I can sign expensive deals with that 🤣😂🤣🤣
😆😂😆😂 Enjoy your day.....cardless & penless 😂
What’s all this about packing up and driving to grey water disposal point?! We just drain ours into a waste container (wastemaster etc) and take that when it’s full !!
Hi buddywheels, Many thanks for your comments, please check the previous comments where this topic has been discussed by others, you may want to join in 👍🏻 Thanks for watching, Keith & Michele.
You don’t have to drive to the motorhome service point . Just take a waste master and use that as you would with a caravan .
Hi Nerf Family UK, Good point but if storage space is limited that may not be an option for some. Thanks for watching 👍🏻 Keith & Michele.
@Neff family,
As the reviews have said.....exactly where would you store the waste master in a van conversion......suggest you tailor your comments to be relevant otherwise you could confuse those looking to purchase new
Graham Atsea
No confusion here . I think it is entirely possible to store a waste master or even a collapsible bucket to drain off the grey waste as and when needed .
Fiamma do a 23l trolley that doesn’t take up much room . My comment was made to prevent people thinking the ONLY way to drain grey waste on site would be to move the entire outfit to the motorhome service point . I think that constraint is more likely to put people off 👍🏻. In reality you don’t need to move at all . You wound just need to make a few trips to the disposal point . All this assuming you are not on a fully serviced pitch where obviously you wound have your own drain .
@@firstmotorhome8024 Fair point.....most vans even with a tiny storage space could take a folding bucket ........then just walk it to a disposal point ......couple of trips all done.....less faff than queuing in your van for the empty point.
@@firstmotorhome8024 We have a smaller van conversion (6m) and we have no trouble taking an Aquaroll and Wastemaster - they stow outside when pitched up and in the washroom when travelling.
Hi I have had over 40 years of caravanning experience and now moved to a camper van to support our photography exploits. I suspect that your missing the point in your intro.. no need to tow a car as the approach is somewhat different. We go exploring/sightseeing then stay there and move on the next day onto another exploration so don't cover the same ground backwards and forwards. I believe that this is the difference. It comes down to what you want to do with your leisure time. No right or wrong approaches
Hi Gray, We totally agree, it’s what works best for each individual that matters. Thanks for watching, Keith & Michele.
Another great video from you both 👍
Thanks Bren & Jules, delighted you enjoyed it 😀 Thanks for watching 👍🏻 Keith & Michele.
Thats cheap insurance! Ours was 800 for a motorhome. Who was that with?
Hi Jon. We’re now with the Caravan and Motorhome Club insurance. Sending our best wishes, Keith & Michele
I nearly spat my coffee out when you said your storage fees for your caravan
Mines 320 a year and we don't have a little caravan
I'm guessing it's because your based in the south?
Hi David, unfortunately that is the norm for secure storage round our way 🙄 Painful isn’t it! Expensive hobby 😀 Thanks for watching, Keith & Michele.
David Rand oh the financial joys of living in the South 😂
Wow that's crazy ours is secure mannned 24/7 joys of living up north everything is so much cheeper
David Rand lol
