Branston is the show stealer Colin, hes just in the background looking totally beautiful and he walks like royalty , sorry im biased maybe , but thank you for a lovely relaxing video and great therapy for a busy week thank you so much, i was there with you !

Great video Colin, glad you and Branston had a nice time, it looked so chilled, 🤗

May have to go on the wine! A camperman after my own heart ❤️

Nice and toasty, great viewing

Really enjoyable 24mins, so relaxing to watch, 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Branston is adorable 👍

Great video mate can't wait to get out myself. What a lovely campsite

Hi Colin , another greatly relaxing video mate ! , you and me both do not function without our Coffee in the Mornings , and as always , Branston was adorable . love and best wishes to you and the Family , until next time Be Well my Friend .🙂❤👍

Brilliant campsite highly recommend 😎🤙🏻🚐

Great relaxed down to earth video, thanks. Good to see Branson showing you around the village. Fire pit throat my ar.e you was talking to your neighbour, who didn’t have a name ‘cos you didn’t let him get a word in edgeways. 😁. Glad you enjoyed your little escape, would have joined you but for the distance 😒. Planning for Yorkshire but not ‘till Sept. 😤. Take care.

Great video Colin. Nice to see you getting away and chilling, cannot believe you forgot your chair mate! Looks like a lovely site wish we had stuff similar here, everything is pricey and there’s nothing like that site near us. Cheers again look forward to the next instalment. 😊

Aman his van his dog and beer and wood.....it dont get any better than that mate

Brilliant video , good to see Branston, I'm just going to look at induction hobs now 😀 take care stay safe

Just getting better Colin ..look forward to Friday nights 👍

Got a Vango induction hob for the van last year, not used it yet so that was very useful. Great video, thanks!

Love seeing Branston 💕🐾, as always, enjoyed the video - well envious!. I’m also thinking about getting an induction hob - and possibly an Ecoflow……… have a great weekend and thanks for sharing. 💕🐾

You made the video of the thing ive been wondering about for month, alhough not cheaper in the long run, must be so statisfying to Cook off grid by power of the sun ☀️ Thanks for putting time into sharing this with us.

Thanks for another entertaining video Colin. 👍

Thanks for showing us another great site! Loving your channel and your adventures. Getting itchy feet watching this as not had a camp this year yet. 🙁

This was a really cosy video, beautiful moody scenery also, we want to visit the North of England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 now. It was busy for a Monday, must be so nice to go camping on grass and not get the inside of van totally gross. In Sweden we have granite gravel spread everywhere during the vinter months (for traction on ice) but it makes your van inside and mats look like a quarry pit when you winter camp.

Looks nice around there thanks for the last video on the battery generator I ordered a ecoflow river pro as well after that and it was delivered today 🤗nice 🤗

Another campsite for the ever increasing list, thanks for sharing…👍

Have not been to kettlewell since I was a kid might be my first trip out in my transit custom good vid Colin site looks great

There's memories for you; it's been over 40 years since I visited Kettlewell. Back then, it was a 750cc motorcycle and a tent! No creature comforts in those days!😆

Another great video. Love the idea of the induction hob, so looking forward to your critique on yours. Is is mandatory to sit and watch people struggling with their awnings/tents, as I thought it was just me! 😂😂😂

Stayed on that site a couple of years ago when the world champs cycling went through Kettlewell. Think it rained everyday but no complaints about the site and I love the area. Perfect for cycling.

😎😎😎 Branston alone is enough to give this vid' a LIKE. 😎😎😎

It’s more exciting when someone turns up in the dark to put there tent up using there headlights on there car to see.pure entertainment 🤣

I get impressed when my kettle whistles too! 🤣

This is our best campsite ...been here about 10 times great place and great pubs

Great video as usual

Lovely place kettlewell, I went to watch the Tour de France there a few years ago and remember going up Park Rash in a 39 x 23 bottom gear which was a laugh. I need to train my 3 black labs to sit patiently like Branson when I open the van door as usually they make a bolt for it as soon as the door starts moving 😅

Awesome mate, never stayed at that site but I’ve noted it in my mind, haha think I’d better write it down at my age 😂 👍👌Northumberland for us over Easter once i get my van sorted again 😥😥

Brave man! in these conditions

Ooooh as a fellow Yorkshireman I winced as you bought 4 wraps of expensive firewood 😂😂😂

Great video about time 🤣 Just got to make my misses let me go on solo camps when we get van 🤔🤷‍♂️🤣

That looked tasty yum yum 😋

Fantastic video Colin, Kettlewell is a stones throw away from where I grew up and I now have the pleasure of working for the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority. There are so many beautiful places in the Dales! - When's your next meet up? I could chat for hours about vans + camping! I have a self conversion Sprinter 4x4 myself, not finished yet, however!! - Branston is so cute, would love if he was at the meet up?? We have two black Labs!

I was at that campsite just after Christmas, I was the only one there ..Toilets and showers are lovely and warm .

Branston💕

weve got a little vango sizzle hob which works great on the big power bank thingy. Yours looks a bit bigger so I think it might manage a larger pan than the Vango does.

Life is so much of a breeze,without baggage ie women!having said that there’s know one to wash up!Live and let live at its best

I do like a good washing up area. While I could just wash up in the van, it is much easier with a full size sink and running hot water.

Colinary delights!

Great video showcasing what Yorkshire has to offer keep it up! Did wonder why you paid for lecce when you have the river pro power bank though? ⚡️

Good video from Billy no mates 😂

Hi Colin, how did you use you’re van solar panel to charge your new solar panel? I have been thinking about this as well, any tips greatly appreciated. Cheers Sean

Hey, love your videos! I like I've watched them all over the last week 😂😂 Got to ask, where did you get that awesome small side table? The fold up one

Great video Colin cant beat an open sky and a V DUB. I noticed you have a bug deflector on the bonnet of your van. Are they any good and easy to fit ? Thanks mate

Had one for five years we got it from IKEA don’t think it was £45 think it was £35 but that was five year since like the fire pit though

I had to laugh - I'm going camping to chill - Then spends the whole time moving, filming, walking and looking like you're constantly on the go 😅

Another great video Colin. Looking at doing a part self build, what make of rock n roll bed do you have. Thanks.

Love the channel buddy. We have our t5 about a month. Lots of ideas from you. We are doing the NC 500 next week end. Haven't had time to sort out a diesel heater ☹️. Would you have any recommendations on a heater. Not 240 v as we will be wild camping so night's. Cheers 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great video as always 👍🏽 Quick question, if u will: Where did u get those folding legs for the table and the hooks etc? Keep up the good work and thanX for sharing 😊

Induction burners are much more efficient so you cook with much less power. Try and keep it at under 25% until you get a feel for it so your eggs don’t look like they are char grilled on the fire.. lol

I really love your videos, Colin. They have such an amazing vibe and I look forward to every one. My van is now finished and ready for bimbles but I find myself at a sort of crossroads. I'd love to bimble out in her and I know she would be amazing but I'm totally anxious and apprehensive about going out in the van on my own. I'm literally now questioning if I did the right thing getting the Vivaro and spending money I couldn't afford on getting her perfect and now its in my head to forget it and just sell her. I wonder if anyone else who did their van feels this way. sorry to put a downer on it. I do love the uplift your videos give to us all and apologise if I ruined things.

Hi Colin - we have gone ahead and ordered to eco flow river pro after watching your video - is the induction hob powered by your eco flow. Nice video. Thanks

Nice site, I’m sure I could get our 7m long motorhome through those gates, been through a lot tighter

Great vlog. I read somewhere that most of the “carbon neutral pellets” come from Eastern Europe !! Regards AJ

Nice video, thak you. What made you buy an induction hob. They are more expensive than a single elctric hob and you have to have ferrus metal pans for the magnet aspect to work. Looks nice though We use an electric hob, £19.00.

Great video as always, just wondering what are the front window covers? I'm guessing they are thermal.

Hi just found your channel and subscribed. I’m undecided which to get a Transporter or Krafter. I’ve always had caravans but now fancy the idea of just going off somewhere. Are you considering getting a bigger van? What are your thoughts on pros and cons for size of van. I’ve had no experience in camper vans and would be grateful for your thoughts. Looking forward to your next videos. Great channel. Thanks Charles

Got rid of my internal screens now and replaced them with external ones ( taylormade screen covers). No condensation whatsoever now. The difference is like chalk and cheese.

Hi, Love the videos! Just a question about the induction hob can you run it off the beudens generator? I have the same one and wondering if this would be a good solution over my standard camping gas stove Thanks, Kieran

As you are from Yorkshire….I would have thought that taking a black Lab would save a lot of of heating to keep your toes warm, what do I know…

Was waiting for the induction hob report but

That fire pit looked gr8… is it collapsible? Where did you get it from please.

Stalks of mushrooms are best bit.....they make your hair curl 🤣🤣🤣

great video as always how many miles has your van done now as you are always out m8 no wife again m8 lol

Did you actually get through 4 bags of wood in one night or just stocking up ?

Is that the Dubstyling firepit mate?

Nice to see you cook something other than chicken and mushroom on a bed of noodles made with a cup of boiling water 😂

Sorry to bother you mate but could you tell me where you got that little fire pit from please.

Oh, and you forgot the “sexies” for the food shots… slow mo closeups to show us what a proper Yorkshire van Chef can do… 😂

Camp?

Just asking why your dog has to have that rope around his mouth, if he is on a leash? Just asking maybe local law.

I really admire people who want to stay out in nature but if 50 Van's on that campsite alone all lit a fire pit the pollution your admitting is unbelievable and has an affect on the air we all breathe

Induction burners are much more efficient so you cook with much less power. Try and keep it at under 25% until you get a feel for it so your eggs don’t look like they are char grilled on the fire.. lol
