I signed up to Britstops got the same book as you. We use it as a guide, it's really good to have in your van. But I never been asked to show the book either and I've been told buy landlords and landladys that they don't really care if you have the book or not. But it is fair that you buy a drink or have a meal for letting you stay.

I've just signed up to Brit Stops so thought to check KZfaq and found your video. Great to hear your experience with it. Might make the Vinyard our first stop this weekend as it's not far from us. I was kind of wondering whether the staff at all these pubs would know what I'm on about when I call up mentioning I'm signed up to Brit stops, hopefully will be straight forward enough. Agree totally with spending some money where we stop and most of the time when we go to a campsite we have a meal somewhere each day, sometimes lunch or evening so best way to look at it is you're just paying for a meal rather than a meal and the camp site fees. With some campsites charging so much, often £20+ and often offering no facilities, just a car park for the night it makes much more sense to try Britstops.

Interesting to hear. We've never had Brit Stops. Being in a larger van we thought it best to use park 4 night and search for sites, pitch up and campsites and we've just carried on in the same way really. We've only ever done one pub stop and definitely found it more expensive than a campsite or paid for park up.

Hey guys xx really lovely upload with fair and honest reviews xxx I completely agree with you re not being exclusive it seems such a shame as the idea is brilliant xx

We agree guys. We ask wherever we are at the time. But it’s still a great book. X.

Great to see you back..very informative and I like seeing the both sides of likes and dislikes

For my recent 10 day vanlife vlog trip I used 'Park 4 Night' which was a bit of a pain, they should change the name to park for day. So many places you cant stay now. becomes very frustrating. The isse i had with Britstops is some only have 1 or 2 spaces and you have to ring ahead and they don't always answer. 40 quid.. nar, I prefer the adventure of not knowing.

Thank you very much for all this information , we are coming over from ireland in July we just ordered the Brit stops 2023 . Thank you 🙏🏼

Lovely vlog guys, how much is the membership for the BRIT STOPS book? We would be interested in buying a membership just for the Vineyard stopover lol! 😁 You both look well and we can't wait to see you all in a few weeks. Lilly is so funny having Mummy carry her .. bless 🥰 xxxx

Handy to know about this book, thanks x

Definitely agree with you on all the points on britstops!!! And those burgers I want to eat it right now 😊😉

Great comments good honest views

Thanks

Hi there. We are new to this game. Having only bought our first motorhome last November. We have now traded that one in for a newer / better motorhome (but that's another story). We bought the Britstops book. I do like that it now comes with access to an App too. But we have not been to a Britstops place yet. I did not realise that it is just places where you can stay for free. Apart from the buying drinks and meals thing. I originally thought it was full of places that didn't charge a great deal to stay at. I did not know they are free. I wonder if they are shooting themselves in the foot, by insisting that pubs etc should offer free stays. EG we recently stayed a couple of nights at a pub near Ambergate, Derbyshire. They charge just £10 a night and have EHU and Fresh Water. But no waste water or toilet disposal. I was telling the landlady about Britstops. It was then that I found out that to be in the book, a pub etc must offer free stays for campers and motorhomes etc. I am not sure its a good idea that Britstops does not allow hosts that charge a small fee to stay, to be included in the book. The pub we stayed at was great. They had a massive car park with room for 2 motorhomes and EHU. They deserve to be better known throughout the camping community. Its a pity that because they charge £10 a night, they cannot get themselves into the Britstops book.

How many adverts can you fit in a short clip not worth watching to many adverts

Ok. You pay the £40. And find where you want to go Ring them. “. Oh yes Please park round the back car park. “. Ok. Car park not set up for Motorhomes or big Motorhomes. Yes you can get water only this is The tat is right round other side of pub in the private House department ie no parking with Motorhome . Most Motorhome would want at least 25ltrs. And the Guinness was £6.80. Do that place is out for no return. !!!! Other places I’ve stayed at are much better Oh. Had to wait ages to get served. No way of contacting Britstops As complaint Seems to me one would be on your own should anything series happen. !!!! Wish You Well.

Really interesting guys! Having only done one britstops so far ( with yourself 🤩🚐🍷) we’ve not had the opportunity to experience all the different scenarios so thanks for sharing 👍🤩 love Lilly and Tessie such stars ⭐️
