Hi Bob and Jenny, nice sunny arrival. Poppies little face. The Crooked Inn , loved the chimney. The campsite looks very nice. Shame there are so many houses there. Looks a pretty village , thank you for sharing xx Julie and Tony xx

Great to see you both back in Hertfordshire (with some sunshine). That turning in Ashwell is ridiculous. Nice to see you are enjoying your new Motorhome. 👍👍 🏕

That was a very tight turn in!!

Fantastic Video. Well Done.

Certainly don't need to watch the vlog to know when you have arrived!! Poppy announces your arrival to all!! X

Love the "there's a car coming", "I don't care"! Made me laugh, been in that situation a few times!

I was going to ask what awning you have but not if you’re not using it again

It's just we're thinking of getting a new one. This one is an Outdoor Revolution Movelite T2 we've used it for 5 years. kzread.info/dash/bejne/rGt2uqyJl7TFZKw.htmlsi=mPIMpQ1zYS8udq6w kzread.info/dash/bejne/rGt2uqyJl7TFZKw.htmlsi=mPIMpQ1zYS8udq6w

We have the same awning as you, we purchased it from the MH show. The only issue I did not like was the elastic sides that bow away from the van. I didnt like the fact in the high winds it could easily be whipped away. But its like many other awnings. So I decided to make a insert that fills that gap that doesnt change the awning. From a old windbreak we created two 6 inch wide pieces with a loop to insert a pole. The extendable poles were off a previous bit of kit. I adjusted the top so it could slot behind the gap between the canopy and van. The bottom pegged down The sides clipped to the awning and the other had suckers for the van. Because the suckers were not under strain they stayed put. Worked well.

Good idea, pity the manufacturers don't add something similar.

Well done Bob and Jenny a great video as ever it looks a great park and a lovely area to explore I’ve been to a few places around that way like letchworth and baldock as my cousin and his wife lived in borehamwood and we visited them a lot Well done on those road works bob that entrance was really tight you did well to get round with the car on the back it’s awful everywhere at the moment always a load of road works think everyone has invested in a digger 😂 Bob if you want a nice low alcohol beer the Ghost Ship 0.5 are worth a try I like them and they are similar to the normal one and also Guinness 0 is good Glad you are both happy with Konnie she seems very smooth driving and towing seems no issue at all! All the best to you both and poppy Daniel

Hi guys. We have owned 2 x caravans and a motorhome and now a campervan. We have found awnings a real pain. Getting up in the middle of night to take it down or constantly hammering pegs in. One damaged our caravan. Rain and soaking wet canvas to pack away when moving sites. Tears in guy rope anchorage. Weight and size when wet. Finding somewhere to hang them up when home to dry . Gravel pitches. Space they take up etc. Lists go on. We can set up on a site in 10mins with a campervan. Spend our time watching people putting them up. What's your real experience with awnings. George and Jane

Yes it can take around half an hour to put up and put away, but we like the privacy, somewhere to keep the chairs and table out, shade when we need it, space to entertain, overall the benefit outweighs the negatives.

Maybe if they trimmed the bushes it may help on the entrance road? i know it is nesting season.

It is good you know the country like the back of your hand . I get lost just going to the airport . You are a good driver did you drive for a living.Good videos .👍

We are having a similar predicament as you…we have a garmin sat nav that has our dimensions and we have trusted wherever we have travelled…got a new Moho in March (Fiat) with a sat nav built in where we can put in our Moho dimensions however trialling both until we have the same level of confidence

Yes, not sure we trust the new one yet.

Clumber Park is hopeless for a mobile signal. Which is surprising given it's proximity to the A1..

Wow, that was tight on the entrance road! Well done for getting round. I thought for a minute you would have to unhook the car! Ian

So did I, fortunately it reversed back a bit.

We are enjoying our new replacement motorhome, like you guys. I note, you stated this may be the last time you will use your awning. Why is that ? We have the same awning as you guys, which we assume will fit up to our new Chausson 640 Titanium Ultimate. However, not so sure we'll be using it much frankly. Same, too, with the G3 Residence Room we have, which we will look to sell.

Does the new vehicle not have onboard fresh and waste water tanks. Your aquaroll and wastemaster must take a lot of room in the boot. The automatic seems very good I am getting very tempted. Great video again folks.

@BobEarnshawMoHo

Yes it has on board tanks but we are pitched up for six nights with an awning and didn't fancy detaching the awning and moving the van to fill up and empty the water. Besides, we're not short of storage.

Another great video I have watched a lot of motor home videos but have to say yours are the best,, so informative and I love the repartee you have with each other and the dramatic music just topped it all off 😀

Oh Bob, we got caught coming out of there last year when they were doing works and had to disconnect the car to get round as the works were on the corner and the locals had parked opposite. Mr D was saying lots of very naughty words. They had a Dutch touring group who had booked nearly every HS pitch. Luckily, they left the following day, but they took all the loo rolls with them. 😅😅 They were convinced there wouldn't be any at the sites. We had to explain what to expect on CMC sites. They also booked out the 3 Tuns too. The wardens were so patient with them. X

Funny I've been to Ashridge today to do a few jobs on my caravan. I love this site and sometimes stay there. I only have to move a few yards out of storage to get there so it's completely stress free. I also love the wardens. They are so friendly and always have a chat when they see me. It's a shame the access road is so narrow even without roadworks. You did really well getting in there with your big vehicle and car. Little Poppy looked like she was enjoying herself. Very cute how she opened her cage door on her own and got in. Great video. Thank you both.

Our westie Jack is the same as Poppy. He knows exactly when we are arriving at a site even if we have never been and starts crying.

Dear jenny and Bob. We watch you every post and love your travels but the music added has spoiled the relaxation and hearing you both chat and you getting it wrong, jenny correcting you and poppy excited to arrive. Now this odd music is spoiling the journey for us. We just like you. You are enough! In our 60's.

The reason I added the music there was I'd left the radio on. Besides, we can't keep talking when I'm driving - it's distracting!
