Mum checked out the cost of the local campsites. Roughly \u00a355 for two nights. **Family Wince** Out came the Britstops book and Ju found a pub just a 10 min walk from them. She called and asked if we could be cheeky and stay 2 nights (the Britstops deal is 24 hours) and they immediately\u00a0agreed. Booked in for a meal on the Sat night, we were more than happy to pay our way (although Ju was poorly so only the three of us ate).<\/p>\n<p>The pub turned out to be an oasis of calm, set back a mile from the sea with a large car park and an area of grass big enough for a rock concert (literally, there&#8217;d been one a while back). When we arrived there were even a couple of other motorhomes, although we only got to say hello to a Yorkshire Terrier sat in the window of one of them, sadly not the owners. As per the other Britstops we&#8217;ve stayed in, the pub owners paid welcoming but casual interest in us. No-one turns up hammering on the door demanding you get in there and start sinking ale;\u00a0the relationship feels a good one. Although packed with punters both Friday and Saturday night, we slept like logs both nights, thanks again to the Britstops system.<\/p>\n<p>The other alternative to the pub car park seemed to be parking alongside the road in the town, although this didn&#8217;t look enticing and notices advised not to even think about it. The central car parks are all restricted by height-barrier, apparently after the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/uk-england-lincolnshire-32130612\" target=\"_blank\">Roma apparently invaded the town in 2014<\/a>. Roma or no Roma, England and motorhomes don&#8217;t seem to mix anything like as well as France and Camping Cars or Germany and Wohnmobiles. Maybe one day they will? Until then, it&#8217;s Britstops for us!<\/p>\n<p>As Charlie went walkies with my folks, we spent a good couple of hours in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.skegnessnatureland.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Natureland<\/a>, peering through glass at boz-eyed chameleons, feeding fur-shaved llama (while attempting to look manly&#8230;), being amazed by surely-that&#8217;s-a-piece-of-wood butterflies and smiling at the recuperating seals.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03418.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-18095\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03418-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"DSC03418\" width=\"620\" height=\"827\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03418-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03418-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03418.jpg 1102w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03522.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-18098\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03522-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"DSC03522\" width=\"620\" height=\"465\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03522-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03522-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03522-174x131.jpg 174w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03522-70x53.jpg 70w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03522.jpg 1469w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03492.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-18097\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03492-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"DSC03492\" width=\"620\" height=\"465\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03492-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03492-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03492-174x131.jpg 174w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03492-70x53.jpg 70w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03492.jpg 1469w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03428.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-18096\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03428-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"DSC03428\" width=\"620\" height=\"465\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03428-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03428-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03428-174x131.jpg 174w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03428-70x53.jpg 70w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/DSC03428.jpg 1469w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Once we&#8217;d sweated our way through the tropical butterfly house we headed for the beach. Stood in the North Sea looking east I imagined myself in Norway looking west back towards the UK, a warm\u00a0buzz running through my body. Just checked Google Maps though, and I was more likely looking at northern Netherlands! The most southerly parts of Norway are on the same latitude as northern Scotland.
