As soon as we could leave the house in June, we followed all the government guidelines and started with a post lockdown tour at the end of May in our home city of Gloucester, followed by a trip out to Bibury in the Cotswolds and also a return trip to Westonbirt Aboretum where we were married 18 years ago!

It was so good to be out of the house, and doing something different from work! If you want to find out more about our home county of Gloucestershire then do check out our playlist here.

For our first overnight trip out post lockdown we headed to the next county of Herefordshire. We were so excited to be able to explore somewhere new and also get away for the first time in our 25 year old Motorhome.

This was a fabulous campsite right on the banks of the River Wye and spending time with family Nat and Al was priceless after such a long time in lockdown.

Watch our Vlog series here, this campsite is a great choice for exploring the beautiful county of Herefordshire!

We had such a great time at Lucksall that we wanted to see more of Herefordshire so we booked a pitch at the Townsend Farm Campsite.

This is a great campsite with excellent family facilities and the bonus of a fishing lake. It is also very close to the pretty villages of Pembridge and Eardisland, which are both on the Black and White Herefordshire Trail.

Watch our Vlog series here to see if this campsite is right for you.

Burford is the gateway to the Cotwolds and this site, Wysdom Touring Park is the perfect place to stay. An adults only site that is within walking distance of Burford.

Our blog post review of Wysdom Touring Park explains why we will be staying here again, and our Vlog Series also shows you what Burford has to offer.

We loved our earlier stay at Lucksall Caravan and Camping Park by the River Wye so decided to head back to the Wye Valley. This time we stayed at Symonds Yat a place that we had both not visited since we were kids.

We chose Sterretts Caravan Park which proved to be a great choice. Check out our blog post review here and our Vlog Series to see why this part of the country is classed as an area of outstanding beauty.

With cruising still on hold and a lot of cruise ships anchored off the coast of Dorset, we headed off to Bournemouth for  a bit of cruise ship spotting. The weather was against us but we did manage to explore some of Bournemouth and see a few cruise ships too.

Check out our video here showing you what we got up to in our 2 day visit.

Southampton is the cruise capital of the UK, and has become one of our favourite cities to visit. We were also excited to meet up with some travel blogging friends too. We stayed at the Premier Inn West Quay, which was in the ideal location and we spent the 2 days eating our way around Southampton. Found out what restaurants we loved and ones we did not!

For many years we have travelled up and down the A48 in Gloucestershire visiting family and friends and we always drive past the Woolaston Inn, Nepalese Restaurant and say we must try that one day! Well that time had come and we booked a table and decided to stay at a campsite just a short walk away.

Plusterwine Farm Campsite, as it’s name suggests is based on a working farm. With fabulous views over the River Severn it is a great choice.  Click below for a full review of this campsite and the Gurka restaurant too!

The Drum and Monkey Pub is located approximately 1 mile outside Upton Upon Severn in Worcestershire. It has a campsite attached to the pub which has toilet and shower facilities and pitches with hook up.

We had heard the pub food was really good, and if you have been following us for a while you know that we rarely turn down an invitation to try out a new pub!

So that was 2020! Considering we had a pandemic with ever changing restrictions we did manage to get in a few trips, 1 cruise, 3 hotel stays and 7 stays in our Motorhome. We must admit we have really enjoyed exploring our home country and look forward to being able to do some more in 2021.

We are currently in lockdown again in England which should finish the middle of February. As soon as we are able to travel again we will, and feel optimistic about what 2021 will bring!
