Lets take a trip into Aberystwyth! A popular seaside resort here in Wales but what do the Travel Trolls make of it? It's certainly not what we expected. Then it's off to Iceland to see what goodies we can pick up for todays dinner.

Thank you so much for bringing this up, I've lived in Aber for just over two years and it's so sad to see it like this. I went on one of my favorite trails outside of the town and there was trash EVERYWHERE! in the countryside as well, It breaks my heart. I have a grabber and a roll of bin bags ready for my next walk. I truly believe we can get our lovely coastal town looking beautiful again!

@sandrabaxter3810 Год назад

Really re Welsh road signs being in Welsh! Gosh you are you going to struggle if you go abroad 😂😂

@Squimple Год назад

Loved the comment that the beach is so bad that had to put in a sand pit for the kid!. As an Aber' resident, it's just the way the sand is, large grey/brown coarse grains it's always been like that it's not dirty. However people will not take their litter with them and it's worse in the summer, though the wind doesn't help and we have a seagull problem, they rummage the bins and make a lot of the mess, but they're a protected species, people are working on solutions though. Hey it's not Rhyl!

@abradshaw8357 Год назад

I have lived in Aber my whole life and it is nothing like it was twenty years ago. It’s become very rundown with filthy pavements covered in either vomit or dog crap. Shops are all shutting down and the beach is filthy. We get less and less students and tourists by the year.

We love it here! Up at the top is stunning views and has a fab cafe

Aberystwyth was always a nightmare to get around.. Son was at Uni there years ago.... He lived near the prom diner that you passed at the beginning.... in a student house.... I had many monthly journeys down to there with 'relief parcels' consisting of crates of lager and food..... sleeping on the floor and nights out in the pub..Then a big shop at fill up his car at Sainsbury's and a slap up breakfast at the local greasy spoon.....

@ardongrainford8004 Год назад

There is no Sainsburys in Aberystwyth. The nearest one is 45 minutes away!

@grumpy_poo Год назад

@@ardongrainford8004 Yes...didn't seem 45 mins away from where he was though... but it was the best place to go....

@dianadimmock5758 Год назад

HMO is a house of multiple occupancy, 9 rooms with en-suites maybe and then kitchens and lounges. Students might stay in them

@griswald7156 Месяц назад

Sugar Loaf mountain……they ought to provide picking poles to clean up as you go….or a big plastic bag…then give you a free park and ride if you return a full one..

We stopped for 5 minutes parking on the front….we had a stock up in Aldi…then shot off to Borth and ynyslas …the parking is bad in Aberystwyth But when it’s full of traffic you have to get out of Dodge…

@juliemoy9116 Год назад

Liked your phrase doesn't taste like council house👌⛱️ bit dirty, but new never seen it before 😅👍🏿 great video 😍

@peterlambert7490 Год назад

a nice little town to go through but reality sinks in as you are in a motorhome with limited space the only good thing is that you can can a great variety of foods right up my alley

@peterlambert7490 Год назад

my oh my what a feast even I could not eat all of that Mazzy did good there

@joehare1151 Год назад

Seagulls have taken over this town!! The town is actually starting to smell like Seagal shit!

@Christopher_Samuel-i7o 20 дней назад

As much as this hurts to hear I have to agree. I moved to Aberystwyth over 40 years ago and the first thing I noticed was how clean and prosperous the town looked. Not now I'm afraid.

@MrPressPhotographer4 Год назад

Should have gone to new quay nice proper beaches further along the coast.

@damianjones7554 Год назад

Aberystwyth used to be a bit of a party town once, I used to go get smashed there all the time. Its become a total ghost town since they brought in the public smoking ban, that's what finished this place. Recon you'd have more fun visiting Devils Bridge, nice place, nice walks there.

@PhilandGina Год назад

The chicken pakora strips from Iceland are absolutely amazing, you guys should try them one day, you won’t be disappointed

Hi new to your channel, Come to Llyn Peninsula North West Wales aka the arm bit, much better experience and the coastline there is great, lovely views!

@deborahwallace1381 6 месяцев назад

Hi mazzy and Dan hope you’re all doing great. I was wondering if you’ve ever considered going to St.Andrews?. This is my favourite place it has everything loads and loads of history , ghosts and castles and a huge gravesite. Give it a thought. P.s bloody love your channel.😁

Findus used to make crispy pancakes … loved them deep fried as a kid 💕 Your Iceland Gaul looked epic - look forward to the reviews! It’s such a shame that the streets / beach were not clean 😡 The grace trip was good though! David & Rachel

The film was actually banned in Aber for many years 😂. You say there’s no famous people from Aber, Tarron Egerton moved to Aber as a child and attended the English senior school - Penglais.

@taraevans5598 Год назад

The sand pit on the prom used to be a paddling pool. Apparently it seemed to be unsafe as a paddling pool so they filled it with sand. 😂 I agree that Aber beach is awful, it’s my hometown and it’s always been like that. It is a place of beauty and usually much cleaner, council must be slacking these days 😂

@TravelTrollsTV Год назад

It's not the worst place in the world. It still has lots to offer. It just needs a bit of money thrown in to it. Thank you for your comment. 🙂

@alicowls1605 Год назад

I have to say the best but was Iceland. Also, how much of that party food went in a midnight snack?

Aber isn't that bad really. There is much to see outside of the centre, such as Cwmystwyth, Hafod, Devils Bridge, Borth, Aberdyfi and Tregaron. Lots to see

@karentoynton8948 9 месяцев назад

I agree Dan you don’t know how secure the buildings are for kids to be climbing on, they can’t charge there for dog poo not being picked up, but you would think , people for cleanliness could collect it up. , mazzy you are really limping. Do you have a good trainer shoe on to help with comfort. You take care. You didn’t do bad price wise for 25 pounds .

Thank you for the great videos. Love you both!

@lovesick.6951 Год назад

a lot of comments say “__ town is better!” let’s be honest, Aberystwyth has storms 90% of the time which drags the ‘sand’ onto the walkway. Seagulls dig into bin bags and in doing so, spread litter. I do agree it’s dirty but honestly, it’s not something that can be controlled at this point. Seagulls used to stay near the sea but they’ve been all over in the past few years, and they will steal food from your hand. Cleaning the town will only do so much good, and there are people who clean it. But with the amount of mess that’s made, it makes no difference. What makes Aberystwyth worth visiting is the castle, the pier, and the Cliff Railway. There’s even a museum, it’s just one of those towns you have to check what’s there before you go 🤷‍♀️

@mintjelliesjewelry3873 Год назад

There might be great beachcombing on that beach. That gravel is what we look for to find sea glass. Might be worth a look, Mazzy.

@user-xr9rv1df8n 7 месяцев назад

I live in Aberystwyth and have my whole life there are a lot of shops and cafes it is a beautiful little town, yes it’s going downhill but if you don’t like it turn around and go home. Not trying to be rude but what you need to think about as well is it’s a university town. I’ve seen worse places in England.

@TravelTrollsTV 7 месяцев назад

If you are happy living in a run down pit rather than wanting to improve the place to make it more attractive to tourists to come and spend their money there...Great! Enjoy your beautiful town as it is...nobody else will.

@user-xr9rv1df8n 7 месяцев назад

And also there’s more than just that beach there’s a nicer one as well

@fantasyradiouk1980 Год назад

Crispy pancakes were made by Findus I think.

Hi. New subscriber here. I am enjoying seeing these vlogs. As I watch Those Happy days. And this vlog came recommended. Hope you're well. Side note. The Birds Eye Crispy Pancakes. Used to be Findus Crispy Pancakes. Eg. Lava in your mouth. Remember them growing up. I'm 46 now

@mattlees3359 Год назад

Greedy lazy council have ruined the place, most of us are jumping ship due to how run down this place has gone me included in a few days! Notice the essence of sewage ( shit) that welcomes you around the retail centre and all around llanbadarn 😂 it's a joke how much of a nosedive the place has taken over a small amount of time

Success on a plate for you.

@alasdairvincent6248 Год назад

With regard to parking. I watch another vlogger who tows a small car on an A frame, behind the motor home. The main advantage there, is obviously that you can leave the motor home on site and use the car for exploring the local area. Parking problems solved! That’s if you can go to the expense of a tow bar, with electrics, an A frame and of course,a car! Aberystwyth does look like it needs a bit of money invested in it, to make it more attractive for locals and visitors. The same can be said for a lot of towns, today, that they are becoming run down, compared to how they once were.Sign of the times unfortunately. I used to buy the original Findus crispy pancakes, back in the day, they were very good. Until the next time. Bye 😀🖐

@lynnehuyton1237 Год назад

Hi Dan and Mazzy another great vlog. Barmouth is well worth a visit. Also, could I ask what's wrong with Mazzys leg? Noticed her limping.

@AdamMarkAteMyHamster 2 месяца назад

I lived in Aberystwyth from 2004-2007, and it was glorious. A world away from my native Glasgow (and where im back living) in its defence, though, it is one of those places that needs sunshine to be a great place. It was pretty bleak between October-April but from this video, its definitely seen better days.

@aljones9412 Год назад

With the cassette we to empty by day 3 . go to camp site ask can we empty and pay a small fee . and some times we will stay on site for a night or two . Love your video's Alway makes us smile thank you both.

@simondavies1168 Год назад

Gutted I missed you guys, Aberystwyth is lovely you just haven't experienced the best bits, I'm at our van a week on Friday it would of been a pleasure to show you 2 around and sorted a pitch out at the woodlands site devils bridge followed by the best curry house I have ever been x

@hellofriend2109 Год назад

If you’re talking about light of Asia then you need to go to more curry houses

@kimdeabill8540 Год назад

Oh Dan be careful. We, like Mazzy, were thinking about doing the Norfolk Broads on a narrow boat. It would have been cheaper to do a 28 day cruise from Southampton that 2 weeks on the Broads.

@ToddEWalnuts Год назад

Hey Deep Digger Dan! I used to watch your videos all the time back in the day. I have just recently stumbled across this channel and I’ve been binge watching some of your episodes since last Friday. I must have watched about 10 or so episodes since then. I’m terribly sorry about your arm mate . I hope it’s a speedy recovery for you. I’m really glad I found this channel. Your British humor is a treat for this ol’ Yank from Wisconsin. P.S. might there be a cameo from 15th Century John in your travels 😅 Keep up with the great videos and I really like your lady friend Mazzy’s wit and humor too. It’s a match made in England 😊
