Holiday Plans for 2021 09:47 - Apr 9 with 1210 viewssolent_toffee

Anyone got any?

A week travelling round Wales in June for me, five days near Barafundle Beach and then three days in Snowdonia, all self catering and keeping out of the way of people, hopefully.

Then got days off in July/August hosting family and friends on the Costa Del Solent.

Sounds like going abroad is going to be a ball ache.

I wish I did.

Currently holding my breath that might be able to drive somewhere hot in late August, early September...but I had exactly the same hope last year too!

Poll: Should we try to replace Selles for the final seven games?

I really fancy buying a small, cheap camper home... something like a Bedford Rascal... and just spend a few weeks of the year travelling down the West Country and doing a spot of bass fishing off the rocky Cornish coast on a Summer's day - or setting up a little table & cooker outside of it in Thetford Forest and just chilling out in rural Norfolk or by the Broads.

It would be ideal for when I go up to the Midlands (Nottinghamshire) for the huge antique fairs they have up there all year & save me a small fortune on hotel rooms! I could stay on a relatives' dairy farm in the Peak District too & make a few days break of it at the same time.

It all sounds very tempting and I've been giving it some serious thought the past year or so.

The first leg of the Wales trip is from a credit note from the National Trust from two previously cancelled holidays, hopefully the vaccine will support this one. Got in there before the prices went through the roof. The second leg is air bnb. Had to jump through all sorts of COVID checks which is fair enough.

At this stage though I would settle for an afternoon in a pub in Liverpool.

We have 10 days booked in Turkey at the end of July. Who knows what we'll be allowed to do by then? If we are allowed to go there or anywhere in the sun, I will go. Really want to get away. If we can't, am looking at going to Edinburgh for a week and exploring there and nearby places

Youngest son has become very keen on mountain biking and the vehicle of choice for those people seems to be a VW transporter. I'm always amazed by how much they want for these vehicles.

Is is possible to get one of the Bedford's for sensible money?

Needs to be abroad for me. Too near to the sea all year round for it to feel like a holiday in the UK for me. And good to be able to swim without freezing your nads off.

There aren't many around although they do go for about £2K/£3K as they stopped production many years ago now. If you're lucky, you can get a decent Romahome for several grand. I quite often have a look at small camper homes & I'm always surprised how much even older ones cost! There's a place (BTA) in Wickham that has the occasional small camper - but as soon as they're on the forecourt - they're gone.

I was reading the other day that camper home prices in the UK have sky-rocketed due to the pandemic with everyone wanting to holiday over here for the time being. Guess my wait will be even longer now.

My cousin has a cleaning contract there so he will make sure your balls are sand free.

Booked to go to Vegas in October so hoping we near normality by then.

Uk holidays are such shite value for money now unless you’re lucky. Plus there will be even more hordes of dickheads everywhere this year.

I'd recommend the Isle of Skye if you haven't been there before. It has some of the most stunning scenery in Britain. It's usually overrun with European tourists in camper vans but should be quieter this summer, even with an increase in British visitors.

Isle of Arran is stunning.

People are mad to go anywhere abroad this year. They are risking unexpected quarantine, holiday being cancelled, having to wear masks on the beach and unknowns. We will no doubt see the UK jollies heading off in the summer with their suncream as they simply can't wait.

Not booked anything yet, but might go to Scotland or Cornwall is always nice. Will probably book a last minute travel lodge.

I went to Skye and Highlands with a mate last September, well worth it Stunning scenery

This year so far got a long weekend arranged in Torquay with Family in a fortnight, and a week at friends in Selsey and then the Gower provisionally arranged for middle of June.

in Early August due to go to France to visit my brother with my daughters, but if that falls through plan to return up to Scotland again

Also have a week booked for Portugal and Spain in September which will hopefully come off
