Unlike websites like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukcampsite.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.ukcampsite.co.uk<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchforsites.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.searchforsites.co.uk<\/a>, pitchup,com only lists a relatively small number of places to stay but lets you easily search their availability on the site. The result: it turns out it&#8217;s a bank holiday weekend folks! Whoops! We&#8217;ve been retired for over six years now and we totally forget about this stuff. So, the most popular beach-front sites which we fancy staying at all appear to have no leccy pitches available this weekend. No problemo, we&#8217;ll get somewhere booked for next week and amble down there over the weekend, staying at quieter spots like the place we&#8217;re in now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, that&#8217;s it, the sun is shining, we&#8217;re out and about and it feels great! Neither of us have toured South Wales before, so any suggestions for places to stay or visit would be much appreciated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cheers, Jay<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a winter hiatus as we sold our house, we&#8217;re out and about in our motorhome, heading south towards the Gower and Pembrokeshire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":42824,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[417],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-42817","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-motorhome-blog"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The House Has Sold and We&#039;re Out &amp;
