Join us, Carol & Ken, as we take a trip to the New Forest in our Consort Nova Motorhome called Snoopy.
In this video, it’s not a good start to the day as we discover someone in a car last night had dumped their rubbish at the back of our van! After clearing up their mess, we head into Lymington for the Saturday market.
As the market starts to get busy we make our escape to the tranquility of Setley Pond to relax for the afternoon.
The following day we visit a favourite old haunt, Lyndhurst. We take a walk around the town to see what’s changed and enjoy a recipe sent in by a subscriber for lunch.

🔶 About us 🔶
Welcome to our channel! We're Carol and Ken, retired professionals turned van life enthusiasts. We share our adventures across the UK and Europe in our camper van, which we have just upgraded to a slightly larger model.
Our goal is to provide a relaxing, honest account of van life, with no scripted drama - just the real, day-to-day experiences of our travels. Many of our viewers find our content calming, and we hope you will too.
We're passionate about wild camping and love to share our knowledge and tips, from staying cool in the van to choosing the right toilet. We're always learning and look forward to sharing our campervanning experiences with you.
While we love the freedom of wild camping, we also enjoy supporting local businesses by indulging in delicious local food. Expect to see plenty of one-pan meals and restaurant visits in our videos.
We like historical sites, country homes, towns, villages, and the occasional city. We aim to share interesting facts and stories about the places we visit.
We post new videos every Friday at 6pm UK time, sometimes more often.
Our channel is perfect for armchair travellers, those considering a caravan or motorhome, or anyone looking to unwind after a stressful day. If this sounds like you, hit that subscribe button and join us on our journey. Your support, whether through watching our videos, subscribing, or contributing to our 'Buy Me a Coffee' fund, helps to keep our adventures going. We appreciate every bit of it. ❤️

Driving on the motorway in Yorkshire. I was so disappointed at the amount of litter on the bankings of the roads. I've yet to see picking up litter as part of community service from the courts handed out.We do have thousands of people sat, around in hotels getting paid for doing nothing. They should be earning their keep at least.

Every where me and the Mrs park up, we litter pick. Always try to leave the place better than we turned up. 9 times out of 10 its lads at night having a smoke, I’ve seen them doing it. Worst place I’ve been to is thetford forest with poo bags everywhere. Chatted with locals and they said “well there’s no bins”, don’t think they’ve heard of taking rubbish home!

It used to make me so cross when I saw the amount of rubbish left by thoughtless people, mainly tourists visiting, especially in the open forest where the ponies can eat it.

We walked into Lymington last Saturday from our campsite, 6 miles round trip. We enjoyed the market, bought some lovely local cheese, a pair of garden secateurs from the tool stall, and a gorgeous apron, pan holder and a towel from a stall run by two wonderful ladies who hand make all of their productss. The fabric I chose is of vintage VW campervans 😀. We park at Boulders Bench, but have never walked up the hill to the trees, must do that next time. I noticed the cafe in Lyndhurst is dog friendly, so must remember that too for next time. We love the camping shop in Lyndhurst, we bought a beach umbrella there on our most recent trip two weeks ago for shade for Bateman, it works a treat. Well done re the litter picking, some people are disgusting and don't deserve to enjoy our beautiful countryside. We're always litter picking. Have a great week. ❤️🐾🚐 Xx

You just reminded me about car being broken into. It used to be a big problem and they would break in to steal the radio or CDs or any items left in the car. I also had a car stolen by joy riders in the 90s. It was so common in the UK but you don’t hear about it so much now. Thankfully it’s over 20 years since my car was last broken into.

Having been brought up in the New Forest and your segment of Boltons Bench, brought back memories. Particularly where you sat at the bench, that very view down the slope….took me back to the Winter 62/63 with heavy snow. My dad made a wooden sledge and set me off on it down that very slope. Unfortunately he hadn’t taken into consideration the possibility (very likely) of me hitting a bump in the snow and the fact that he hadn’t built the slats lengthwise, but across! I can still feel that pain I got in the derriere region! 😳

Reminds of staying down there as a kid ina a camper..and unfortunately got kicked by a horse,,cos course I was feeding it ,and they are wild ponies .so the horse swung round and gave me a belter ,,in the leg and back..I was alright but had a big hoof mark on my thigh.i Keep my distance after that ..although I have horses of my own now..but still wary of back legs..love ur videos thanks Carol n Ken.

Carol once had a horse step on her toes. Very painful and took ages to heal. You certainly need to treat them with respect.

The best one I heard was when the wife and I were in Portugal and it was said that motorhomes wild camping were the cause of all the rubbish but when you looked at the pictures that accompanied the write up it was tile's, sinks and house furniture, basically everything out of a house.

The Scottish Highland Council has now put a scheme in place, where for £40 in total you can use park ups, waste emptying, toilets and showers at council owned liesure facilities. Seems like a good scheme and good value and the council, I am sure have introduced it, with the best of intentions for all, including the environment but the camping site owners up in that area along the NC500 are up in arms, saying that the Highland council is now in direct competition with them and are driving them out of business. Your thoughts on the matter ? In my experience, it is very unusual for Scots to feel as if they are being badly done to and never seem to routinely moan about their lives and how they are treated ? lol.
@LifeistooshortCK
@LifeistooshortCK 24 күн бұрын
Competition is healthy. The sites will have to offer a better deal and ambience. The UK need to wake up and exploit the Motorhome/Camper market that is out there. France cracked this years ago 😁👍
