Summary

We live full-time in a tiny Fiat Ducato campervan and after two years on the road we’ve learned that not every park-up is perfect but that’s part of the adventure.

In this video, we share exactly how we find the good ones, the quiet, free, and safe spots that make vanlife in the UK possible (and enjoyable). From how we research and plan, to the tricks we use on Google Maps and AllTrails, this is the simple process behind every good night’s sleep on the road.

We’ll show how we:
-Avoid common mistakes when finding overnight spots
-Use satellite view and Street View to find hidden gems
-Choose legal and safe places to park in the UK

This is a real look at how we’ve built a map of over 260 park-ups in 2 years.

If you’re curious about how to find free and safe van spots, travel the UK without stress and make any park-up feel like home, this one’s for you.
