As we don't tow a car or take bikes, I'd love a copy of your list of 37 sites !! All being well and if allowed to do so by July, we have booked Moffat for our way up to Scotland and also for our return. We also have friends that live in Hightown, near to you and so Southport would be good for another time to meet with Ann and Clive.And York, I want to do them all !!!!
Thank you both , some great ideas to visit , our van arrives in April and we haven’t a clue what to do or where to go, appreciate very much all the advice you both take the time to bring to us viewers x
Jenny and Bob I truly admire you still trying to create content while this lockdown continues its really great information and it's lovely to see your videos keep us going 👍
We have been to all except Moffat which was recently cancelled and rebooked for September. We agree all these sites and locations are superb. 😃👍🏻 Trev n Sue
Dulverton is a great site, nice pitches by the river and a nice village. The Thai restaurant was great last time I stayed there. We took a trip into Exmoor and to Tarr Steps, roads were a bit narrow but worth the trip!
We hope to get to moffat after lockdown ,i watched your vlog, when you walked into town from the site.It give me such a good view on all that is there.Thank you guys stay safe ,and keep up the great work your doing.
Hi Bob and Jenny. We can see why you like Dulverton. Nice list, I bet there are some great Beachcombing prospects at Southport as well. Pete & Kaz 😀👍😀👍
Thank you for putting this together! A few to add to our list for when we are allowed! Maybe Moffat first...just in case we're not allowed out of Scotland!
Love the site at Moffat as we live in perth it’s a very good stop of point north or south , enjoy your time in Scotland, look forward to the next video.
Hi Bob and Jenny. Great vlog, love to see the places you visit. Can't get Su to Scotland though, rains to much. Two of our best sites are Castleton and Hawes. Bob I have to include this. Just made a fantastic omelette as per your instructions, really chuffed feel like a master chef.👨🍳 I have the Tf Gear toaster, similar to your ridgemonkey. Thanks mucker. Keep safe and both of you have a fantastic year with Poppy. Pete and Su.
Thanks, well done on the omelette! You wouldn't tell the different between Scotland, The Peak District and Yorkshire as far as rain is concerned. It's what keeps it green!
One of my favourite video's from your channel is the first outing in Thor, visit to Knaresborough. I liked the walk around the town and window shopping and cafe visit with Poshcats and friends. More town walks Bob and cafes with Jenny would be great.
This has definitely made me realise that I should join the cmc when things improve. We have sites booked with ccc but not sure whether restrictions will allow.
Great video. There's a really great site right in the middle of Cardiff, run by the city Council. Its in a park away from main roads and only a 10 minute walk to the city centre, castle, and sports grounds. Book well in advance.
I tried adding link to the website, but wouldn't let me, just Google Cardiff City Caravan site. It's worth booking by phone as they can yell you whats going on in the city, if you want to avoid the crowds.
Love Castleton, especially at Christmas time. We’ve also stayed at Morton in Marsh which is great for the town and on the train line for Worcester and Oxford. I’d also say Bath Marina, which is quite a walk into town, but a nice setting next to the river.
We normally use Moffat to break the journey to and from Wales to the Highlands staying a single night. This year we tried to do likewise and discovered that there was a minimum stay of two nights, even in midweek, last week in July. We checked to see which C&CC sites in Scotland could be booked for a single night. Only one, Dingwall. The rest of our week we managed to book 5 single nights at Caravan Club sites (including weekends) and two nights at independent sites. Very disappointed as we love Moffat, we only have a week so don't have the luxury of staying two nights each way. I always thought touring was the name of the game.
The Camping and Caravanning have had a policy of two nights minimum at most of their sites as long as we can remember. It stops us using their sites for stopovers too!
Hi Bob & Jenny, any chance of sharing the full list, we are always looking for decent sites near small towns, some of our favorites are Cheddar, Moreton-In-Marsh, Tewksbury all very short walks it would be interesting to see if they are on your list and where, another few are Thirsk & Warwick & Woodstock & Bristol but Bristol & Woodstock are closing and the Warwick site isn't that great.
Hi Bob and Jenny. We too love Moffat. We were there several times last year as it is less than an hour away from us. We have the feeling of being away from home without a long drive before and after. Also, Moffat is a lovely little town. Have you ever been to Cardoness Park @ Gatehouse of Fleet Dumfries and Galloway? it is really lovely.
Very useful thanks.CMC wins 4-1 then. Three more CMC sites on my bucket list. I've done Southport - just the job for me (cycling, town, pubs, beech) 👍 Although you may not partake, on your travels, please mention local cycling possiblity eg National Cycle Routes Thanks for posting 🚴♂️
Hi Bob and wife hope you’re doing ok. Have you been to Stratford on Avon and tiddington campsites just outside the town? It’s very nice . Stratford upon Avon is my home town and watching your videos and your lovely motor home makes me want to save and do the exact same. God bless you both and take care x
@@BobEarnshawMoHo oh yes well my girlfriend lives in chipping campden up the road! In moreton I think the one your on about is by the plane museum, never been there myself
Dulverton is a lovely site, however as my sister lives a mile or so out of Dulverton we are unlikely to stay there, shame. Derwentwater in Keswick is our favourite, a very short walk into the town centre.
We recently stayed at Rowntree Park and discovered that dogs aren’t allowed on the York City Walls. This was after we had walked most of the way around with our little dog. There’s a sign near the East City Gate. We were hoping to walk all the way around! Lovely riverside walks, though.
We always check out the area on Google before we book along with disabled persons facilities. Our preference is a pub and eating place very close by then a town and if possible the efficiency of the local public transport. We don't mind driving to the area's tourist attraction's and garden's and monuments, though we didn't miss the car when holidaying on the Isle of Wight as the public transport was brilliant. Please note, there is no free public parking on the Isle of Wight.
Surprised you didn't mention moreton in marsh. My mum used to stay there year in year out. She loved the Cotswolds and M i M campsite especially. She tried Broadway but was happier in. M i M.
There is a video about that somewhere, but we wanted one with twin beds, rear bathroom, no travel seats, similar to our previous Swift Bolero. Our Swift Kon-Tiki Sport 574: ruclips.net/p/PLUi3rqw12j2pizRPKfDEwXwZEZPtFNAq_
I presume you both walk at snail’s pace. York Rowntree Park site could hardly be any closer to the city centre. Less than ten minutes to Clifford’s Tower. Also it isn’t a town it’s a city - a city that attracts millions of visitors from around the world.
This was part of a Vanner’s Collaboration so we all stick to the same title of the video. We are well aware that York is a city as we have visited many times and we don’t walk at a snails pace. Thank you for your comment.
PLEASE NOTE Dulverton is actually called Exmoor House Caravan and Motorhome Club Site.
As we don't tow a car or take bikes, I'd love a copy of your list of 37 sites !!

Great suggestions folks, love the way you've gone through 30+ sites and scored the best, definitely a few of those on my list now.
Jenny and Bob I truly admire you still trying to create content while this lockdown continues its really great information and it's lovely to see your videos keep us going 👍
Thank you

Riverside Caravan Park in Crickhowell. Lovely place to stay. Right in the town. Nice pubs and shops. It’s between Abergavenny and Brecon.
OK, thanks for the tip.
Dulverton is a great site, nice pitches by the river and a nice village. The Thai restaurant was great last time I stayed there. We took a trip into Exmoor and to Tarr Steps, roads were a bit narrow but worth the trip!
Thanks guys really enjoyed the video hopefully we can all be able to meet up soon 😀
Great work.
Chas 👍
Hope so!

Nice Vlog Bob and Jenny. Nice honest appraisals and content. Thanks for sharing
Hi Bob and Jenny. We can see why you like Dulverton. Nice list, I bet there are some great Beachcombing prospects at Southport as well. Pete & Kaz 😀👍😀👍
Totally agree with Dulverton being at the top, we just love it there as there is so much on your door yet very peaceful..
Moffat is our favorite place to stay in Scotland as well. As Helen can't walk to far. Great video.
Thanks for the suggestions. Just booked Dulverton for July.
Melrose my personal favourite, Moffat a close second. Keep up the great work 👏
Thank you for putting this together! A few to add to our list for when we are allowed! Maybe Moffat first...just in case we're not allowed out of Scotland!
Totally agree with Castleton Such a fabulous town with plenty to do , the rest will go on the bucket list , some great choices 👍😀
Love the site at Moffat as we live in perth it’s a very good stop of point north or south , enjoy your time in Scotland, look forward to the next video.
Agree that York is a great place to visit. We like the CAMC site at Powburn because it’s nowhere near a town. 😉
Broadway in the cotswolds is a nice site and about a 10 minute walk.
The village itself is like something of a film set
Yes, we've filmed Broadway Caravan and Motorhome Club Site many times. It's a 10-15 mins walk into the village, worth it though.
Thanks, Bob - useful list! I have an idea for another collaborative video: top five sites in mainland Europe.
York is one of our favourite Cities to visit, trying to get booked in to Rowntree is difficult that's why I picked Beechwood. Some great sites, cheers
Yes especially difficult at weekends - full up with pesky Motorhomers! :-) We've been during the week before.
Ha ha Bob, yes those Motorhomers with their 2 days here 2 days there!
Nice sites, plenty of shops and pubs to go to.
Hi Bob and Jenny, what a brilliant choice of sites, thank you for sharing xx
Great video time and effort put into your choices
Hi Bob and Jenny.

Chance would be a great thing! 😁
This has definitely made me realise that I should join the cmc when things improve. We have sites booked with ccc but not sure whether restrictions will allow.
Yes the big advantage is no deposit if they are cancelled again.
Great video. There's a really great site right in the middle of Cardiff, run by the city Council. Its in a park away from main roads and only a 10 minute walk to the city centre, castle, and sports grounds. Book well in advance.
Thanks, good to know
I tried adding link to the website, but wouldn't let me, just Google Cardiff City Caravan site. It's worth booking by phone as they can yell you whats going on in the city, if you want to avoid the crowds.
If you put links in RUclips comments, it goes in the 'held for review' section, so I'll look in there. Thanks.
Love Castleton, especially at Christmas time. We’ve also stayed at Morton in Marsh which is great for the town and on the train line for Worcester and Oxford. I’d also say Bath Marina, which is quite a walk into town, but a nice setting next to the river.
Yes, Moreton in Marsh was on our longer list, but was including on Herman Hits The Road's video.
I think Southport will be one of the first sites I visit after lockdown.
Great sites you chose there Bob & Jenny the only one we haven't been to is Dulverton, Castleton was my home village before I got married

Another Great video Thanks,
Interesting video, not heard of Moffet or Dulverton, will need to have a look at tham. Thanks for sharing👍Mark & Coral
Thanks we went to Moffat in October and Dulverton in 2019.

Closest we've been to Stratford is Morton in Marsh

Really enjoyed that, just tried to book in at Rowntree and they are fully booked until next year 😳
Yes, that's the trouble with it, think we were lucky the couple of times we went there.
We recently stayed at Rowntree Park and discovered that dogs aren’t allowed on the York City Walls. This was after we had walked most of the way around with our little dog. There’s a sign near the East City Gate. We were hoping to walk all the way around! Lovely riverside walks, though.
We did the same! It was only when we got to the exhibition, we found out dogs weren't allowed/
Thank you both - good video. Must get down to Dulverton as soon as we can. Was that a slightly different version of your theme music at the start?
Thanks, just includes the collaboration intro and the music played longer.

Spent ages looking for Dulverton CMC. The nearest we could find was Exmoor House CMC. Is that the same site. Great videos BTW
Yes, Exmoor House is the same site.
@@BobEarnshawMoHo Thanks Bob, we have now booked for August. It looks great on your review. Your videos are very informative, Thank you.
Thanks for your top sites , all noted down, quick question for you Jenny and Bob, are all sites dog friendly?, 👍🐾.
Most campsites accept dogs and all club sites are dog friendly. We haven't come across a campsite that doesn't allow dogs.
Surprised you didn't mention moreton in marsh. My mum used to stay there year in year out. She loved the Cotswolds and M i M campsite especially. She tried Broadway but was happier in. M i M.
It was high up on our list. Think they've updated the pitches now.
Hi Jenny and Bob. I really enjoy your videos. You have had many motor homes...what made you choose the one you now have?
There is a video about that somewhere, but we wanted one with twin beds, rear bathroom, no travel seats, similar to our previous Swift Bolero. Our Swift Kon-Tiki Sport 574: ruclips.net/p/PLUi3rqw12j2pizRPKfDEwXwZEZPtFNAq_
May I suggest a map of uk to show where site is then local map. Do enjoy watching your videos 👍
New intro 👍

"10 mins is quite a walk"? 🙄
It might be for people with mobility issues is what I think we're were trying to say.
