Photos from the NEC Classic Motor Show 2015

By |November 29th, 2015|Blog|Comments Off on Photos from the NEC Classic Motor Show 2015

Hi All,

Had a great couple of days at the NEC admiring all of the motoring history. Makes me wonder where we went wrong with modern cars, you would expect things to improve over time.

I am unsure if many current vehicles will become future classics, maybe the VW T4 and T5 and then it will be […]

Tree House Getaway at Cleveleymere in Lancashire

By |November 17th, 2015|Blog|Comments Off on Tree House Getaway at Cleveleymere in Lancashire

Do you ever get that U2 feeling when trying to book a weekend break, by that I mean you still haven’t found what you’re looking for?

For Julies birthday we always like to go away for a nice break and it’s always a challenge to pick something new.

I have come to the conclusion that looking on […]

Dubs in’t Dales 2015

By |October 11th, 2015|Blog|Comments Off on Dubs in’t Dales 2015

This is the only VW Festival Julie and I have attended this year and it is Julies favourite.

I love the event as well but being held late in September it does have a slight undertone of melancholia, as the VDubbers are becoming acutely aware that the season of happiness is coming to an end and […]

Camping at Hooks House Farm in Robin Hoods Bay

By |August 31st, 2015|Blog|Comments Off on Camping at Hooks House Farm in Robin Hoods Bay

This blog should have been written months ago, when the camping trip to Robin Hoods Bay was fresh in my mind, but not to worry I have photos to remind me along the way.

Actually, I think I will just add photos and talk about what comes back to me when looking at them.

Intro

IMPORTANT NOTE: Brockwell Wood is not mine (as much as I would love it!) this blog is just my recommendation and experience when I went. To book you need to contact them via their web-site: http://www.blaydonburnfarm.com/contact-us.html (best to email as its a working farm) 

It’s not often as an adult that you get that childlike rush of […]

Before reading this blog, just a quick note to say we have now done an up-dated blog using data from 2016 and 2017, which can be viewed here https://www.cannycampers.co.uk/top-5-north-east-wedding-venues-of-201617/

The Railway Inn Acklington Campsite Review

By |May 29th, 2015|Blog|Comments Off on The Railway Inn Acklington Campsite Review

If you read my last camping blog when we stayed on a site near Hadrian’s Wall  you may recall me saying that I prefer a campsite with a pub close by, and being disappointed that that site did not have that.

During that previous camping trip, myself and Julie met a couple in Brampton who were […]

First Camping trip to Hadrian’s Wall

By |April 16th, 2015|Blog|Comments Off on First Camping trip to Hadrian’s Wall

I was really looking forward to my first camping trip of 2015 and this year we started our camping adventures at Hadrian’s Wall Campsite, arriving in the early afternoon.

The campsite has some really good features, it is secluded and quite for starters but what I really like are the pitches and more specifically the views. Unlike […]

To this end I would like to thank all of those Brides and […]

‘Little Joe’ Camping at Largs in Scotland

By |October 28th, 2014|Blog|0 Comments

Is Largs in Scotland very popular? Largs is a seaside town on the Firth of Clyde in North Ayrshire, about 33 miles from Glasgow.  I must admit I have not heard of 1 person who has been from my small pocket of friends and acquaintances. I stumbled across Largs years ago, when for a birthday we stayed in […]
