    Campervan Hygge – Finding Comfort In My Tiny Space

    Today I’m looking back to previous campervan trips and thinking about how they’ve benefited my overall mental wellbeing by creating moments of hygge – that glorious sensation when everything feels right with the world. It’s been a while since I posted as Rambling Nan. Not because I’ve not been on…

    Warm Reception At The Cold War Museum

    One chilly morning in early May I packed a sandwich, settled the dogs in their beds and headed for the far reaches of Suffolk to visit Bentwaters Cold War Museum. This was not an overnighter so no need to disturb HoneyBumble, instead I settled for my trusty old Volvo estate,…

    Honeys First Bumble Took Us To Ibiza – Well, Sort Of

    J and I collected Honey from Bumble Campers HQ in Peterborough on 1st August 2024. I remember it well. The excitement of J driving me there, the feeling of impatience as we waited whilst the customer before us loaded children and luggage into their rental camper, the toe-curling boredom of…

    Messing Around On Trains:  A Bumble To North Norfolk’s Poppy Line

    My Grandson C, loves steam trains. In 2023 C, his sister A, and myself spent a day exploring the Poppy Line railway between Holt and Sheringham. It’s about 90 minutes drive time from home which meant that a good proportion of our day was spent driving to and fro. And…

    Birthday Bumble: A Trip To Dreamy Hollows

    My little campervan, Honey, was a birthday present to myself and so it seemed only appropriate that I should wake up in it on the morning of my 60th birthday. But where to go? Mid October can bring inclement weather and I had no idea how cosy the camper would…

    Home Crafted Campervan Accessories: The Blanket

    It wasn’t long into my camper van kitting out journey when I realised that I would be wanting to keep enjoying weekends away in the van as far into winter as I possibly could. And, because “Honey Bumble”has no heater when the engine is switched off, some warm bedding would…

    The Tester Trip

    They’re a lot of money these camper vans. By that, I don’t mean they’re not worth it. But before I break open my pension pot, I want to know that my money will be well spent. There was only one way to find out – rent a camper van and…

    Choosing A Camper Van

    I’m not much of a one for retail therapy. In fact I hate shopping with a vengeance. But, If I’m going to do this camper van thing, I’m going to need a van, and then I’m going to need ‘stuff’. Van first. I love my time away with just dogs…
