Alright people?! This time in our pre-Ady UK travel series, we’re back up North to take on one of the most underrated Scotland road trips, the epic South West Coastal 300.
We start this Scotland van life stint near Dumfries and head anti-clockwise along the Solway Coast to the Galloway Peninsula and the most Southerly point in the country.
The sun has got his hat on and it’s beaches galore. Plus we find some of the most epic park up spots we’ve ever seen. Like, showstopping, seriously gorgeous, these are “what we built the van for kind of park ups”.
We also spend the night stargazing at a meteor shower under one of the darkest skies in Europe in the middle of Galloway Forest.
So guys if you’re looking for some inspiration for your next UK travels, sit back and take note.
You can find more detailed adventure guide for the South West Coastal 300 road trip and the places we visit in this video over on our travel blog: thewholeworldornothing.com/so...

Really enjoyed that! Nice to see a not so popular part of Scotland. I enjoy also seeing what you give yourselves to eat. Your meals look amazing!

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. We enjoy putting the food in too, it’s something we always found interesting in other van people’s videos - we always loved seeing what it was possible to make in such a small space so we try to show that side too 😊

Interestingly you mentioned being obsessed with iron bru.. my Nan suffered extreme morning sickness when pregnant with my uncle. She was on the way to get a new morning sickness medicine- thalidomide!- when she stopped at a shop and my grandad bought her iron bru. She said she instantly felt better. She decided not to take the medicine and what a lucky decision that was! When I was pregnant my nan would buy me bottles of it but I hate it 😂

Wow that’s an amazing story! So lucky that your nan actually liked it!!

I have never seen that area before, thank you very much for sharing… And that first meal caught my eye, the one that looks like pork. Did you say that was eggplant? You got a share of the recipe really did look good whatever it was! Thanks you guys from Northern California!

@TheWholeWorldorNothing 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, it’s pulled eggplant! It looks very similar to pulled pork and is quite meaty in texture - delicious if I do say so myself 😂 I’ll have to figure a way of sharing the recipe 👍

Hari OM James, there is no question; when you decide finally to settle 'Chez Jay' HAS to happen!!! Trying to recall the timing of your trip but I think it was August? Probably the Perseid meteor shower you saw. That was a Charolais bull you spotted - they are just RIDICulously bulbous... and loved the hare sighting. Sarah - I'm with J again - tattie scones eggs and beans are an all-season brekky!!! I am so glad you were able to enjoy the Bonny Land in that fine weather. It is still pretty in the murk, but certainly not open-door-worthy. Sending my weekly hugglies to Ady. YAM xx

@TheWholeWorldorNothing 2 жыл бұрын

Sorry for the late reply. Would love to open Chez Jay one day, great name too 😊 Just googled the Charolais bull and that's exactly what we saw! Like cows on steroids, just the most unbelievably muscly animals we've ever come across. We always pass your hugs on to Ady 🥰🥰🥰

Hi guys. Can I ask if that was an actual bookable campsite you stayed on at the mull of Galloway. Looks lovely. Cheers.

Cyprus calling. Come from the west coast so really enjoyed this video. About to have tattie scones and bacon but in pitta bread, got to have something local. Looking forward to the next instalment.
