ILLEGAL STEALTH VAN CAMPING IN ST IVES CORNWALL

I went to st Ives once. Never again. Overcrowded, nowhere to park. Complete nightmare

The crochet blanket is, in fact, a giant granny square. It has a nice colour scheme, unlike a lot of handmade items which tend to be haphazard. Well done to your mother.

'Stealth camping' with big solar panels on the roof yea the only person who thinks your 'Stealth Camping' is yourself, why don't you get a real camper like everyone else and don't be such a freeloader!…'

I've had a thought about why councils in the UK don't have plenty of free overnight parking. Could it be to stop being over whelmed by travellers? I live on the edge of the M25 just inside London (Orpington) where they do occasionally pitch up at fields and parking spots. Many shopping areas with plenty of free parking there is always a bar over the entrance to stop big/tall campers coming in for that very reason.

Who the hell would want to spend a night in Cornwall anyway… Over priced, over crowded, and definitely over rated.
The main bonus of the countless herds flocking to Cornwall is that it leaves more space for us in the rest of the UK, so keep going people.

Hope you get caught ya clever bas****!

This is so utterly pathetic. Making a mission over parking a van overnight. And, paying so much to park, and then wondering if you'll be given a ticket. This is a ridiculous situation. Sneak your van into the grounds of Buckingham Palace, and spend the night there, and this sort of video would make more sense.

First time I’ve watched any of your content…. Really really great! 😊

Unfortunately for every one responable van camper there are about 20 iresponsable van campers who spoil it for everyone. I live on a tourist rout and fed up with van campers passing through, camping up for the night, not useing any local ameneties, except the toilets, empty their chemical toilets in the toilet, thus blocking them, leaving their rubbish where they have parked and driving off in the morning. 🙁

Lovely location and due to it being off season, it's probably not worth it for them checking every vehicle 😅 Did you try a a Cornish pasty?

4:25 nah , just means you've got a lovely mum .

SAMA blanket! Got one too!

That’s how you stealth camp in a van, have a van that looks like a van, no windows, no solar panels visible, all the other “stealth” vans look like campers from miles away.
If it was me I’d sign write the van, to make it look less like a camper.

If you're in there with a woman do you both take dumps in the toilet, how long does it take the smell to subside?

Nz don't have gypsy's mate..
Nice 👐 s

There are two fundamental reasons campers aren’t encouraged in england, it’s a tiny island compared to Australia which has a lot more land and travellers! That’s why car parks don’t allow it. Space and we can’t discriminate against certain types of overnight traveler’s.

I would care what people think. Get a sleeping bag and get your head down, nothing 'stealth'about it.

I lived in Devon for around 10+ years and worked in Cornwall sometimes but i never did manage to get to St Ives. I would like to go but it's a shame they try to barge out the motorist or camper and only appear to cater to the middle class types willing to pay OTT prices in some air b&b. It kind of puts me off but glad you pulled off a stealth camp in the van which is what I would do.

Enjoyed 👍
