Well what a Summer that was!
Well as we wave goodbye to summer, am I going to miss it? Not this year, this year has been tough and it has really made us question why we are doing this! We have had some real testing times this year, from fridges blowing up, to toilets being pulled up and spun...
NORMALITY!!! (Nearly)
May the 17th, the next part of coming out of lockdown. Now it’s not looking great for June with the new Indian variant doing the rounds, but May is fine you can run around hugging cautiously, I have no idea how that works but hey who am I to judge! So what does...
FACILITIES OPENING 17TH MAY
There are so many guidelines to open up the facilities that it just isn’t something that we are able to do, for example you can only open up the toilets not the showers, our main block is a cubicle with toilet, shower and sink, so that is impossible, you can...

Who got snow? We didn’t!
But it was freezing so I spent the day sat by the fire and uploading all these lovely warm beanies that I make.
Each beanie is a one off because all the wool I buy is from charity shops, you know we are all about sustainability.
Link is in our bio to purchase one.
Monday feels.
Storms are brewing all around us but so far I’ve managed to stay dry walking the dogs!

Harry has been out this morning taking frosty photos for me.
It’s early and I’m winter retired so still in bed drinking tea!!!
Looks like he might have inherited his great grandads photography skills!!! 😍

Work is still happening, Tim has put some shelves up in my laundry room so that all the bedding is a bit more organised.
I know, I know the excitement of what we are up to right now is off the Richter scale. This is as good as it gets, we are in full sloth mode!!! 🦥

I won’t bore you with all the pics, but if you have noticed that I haven’t been on here, it’s because Tim and I went to Vegas!!!
It was a very much needed trip with our best friends no kids, we did win on the slots……. A whole $25 neither of us are gamblers!

It’s that time of year again, we want your pumpkins, our piggies look forward to this time of year where they stuff themselves silly with your waste.
Drop them off by the front wall and we will grab them from there.

Well that’s it, our season is over and what a year, it was a toughie this year, with the weather not being on our side through the summer, but it’s full of memories, shaved heads, hip replacements, rain, loss, food, lots of food and as much getting in the sea as we could fit in.
Thank you to everyone who came and spent their holidays with us, we are forever grateful for your support.
We will be taking a well earned break and spending time creating memories with our kids, they are growing up so fast so we need to make the most of them wanting to spend time with us!!
See you all in 2024.

Really really sorry but we have had to make the decision to close the site from the 23rd October, our fields are just too wet to stay open, and the weather is not looking any better for next week.
So for those that had chosen to stay with us next week please check your emails.
Looking forward to my lie in on Tuesday morning!!!!

Just a mile and a half from us is chapel wood, owned by the RSPB there is a footpath that runs through our campsite that will take you to it. It’s a beautiful walk down and you only have to go on a little bit of country road to get to it.
These woods are beautiful whether you go in spring when the floor is carpeted with bluebells or whether you go in autumn when the colours are stunning and the leaves are crunching under your feet, however I always get an eerie feeling when I’m here, it was worse yesterday and I wouldn’t let the dog off the lead, he was my protector whether he liked it or not!!! I feel like I’ve always had a connection with feelings, spiritual life and for me there is definitely something in those woods, this doesn’t put me off and it felt worse yesterday whether that was because of the weather or it being the ‘spooky’ month I don’t know but I didn’t feel comfortable and really rushed round without fully appreciating the woods.
Next time your here take a walk to the woods and let me know what you feel.

Finally took dad out for his birthday lunch, it’s only 3 months late!!!
I have been wanting to try the @thelimekilnilfracombe since it opened and I was not disappointed the food is amazing, the staff lovely and the view just stunning.
Highly highly recommend and I can’t wait to go back for dinner I bet it looks amazing in the dark.

Spud always lets me know he’s around, singing away until I give him his breakfast!!!
He’s been hanging around the shop all summer long and we’ve watched him grow from a ball of fluffy brown feathers to this very handsome red breasted chap!

Yesterday was a sad day because we said goodbye to our warden Pat who has worked and lived with us for 2 years.
Pat his girlfriend Charlie and their pup Rowan were a huge part of our Roadway family, Pat’s passion for gardening and flowers has shown throughout the site over the 2 years with the gardens absolutely blooming under his green fingers.
We wish them well in their new home and are so grateful for the help they have given us over the last 2 years.
So as you may have worked out that leaves a gap in our Roadway family, meaning we are looking for wardens, ideally a couple.
The wardens role will include a wide variety of tasks which keeps the job interesting, such as: Maintenance / Housekeeping / Cleaning / Reception / Gardening / Ground works / You may or may not have experience in some or all these areas but a willingness to work hard with a positive and vibrant outlook could make you a very suitable candidate.
This role will start 1st March 2024 through to 31st Oct approx. (8 months). Your pay will be 30 hours per week per person, paid every 4 weeks. Your working hours will vary in line with season for example, In low season you may work just 25 hours per week with 3 days off per week and in high season you will work around 45 hours per week with 2 days off per week.
The rate of pay is 50p above NMW The wardens will have a private pitch, electricity, and free use of launderette. Applicants must have their own touring caravan. So if you are looking for a slower pace of life and wanna leave the hustle and bustle and would fit in with us, drop me a message.
Do you notice how quick I turned that sad post around, sorry Pat and Charlie, we will miss you but business is business!! 🤣🤣
