Join us, Carol & Ken, as we take a trip to the New Forest in our Consort Nova Motorhome called Snoopy.
In this video, itβs 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 whatβs changed and enjoy a recipe sent in by a subscriber for lunch.

πΆ About us πΆ
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.

![Consort Reef or Nova? [Which is BEST]
Join us, Carol & Ken as we search for the best new campervan for us.
In this episode we visit Consort Motorhomes in Leeds and are given a tour of their factory by Scot, the owner.
We fell in love with their vans but are in a dilemma over which length of van to choose; the 6m Reef or 5.4m Nova?
