We arrived on site late afternoon on Friday and set up on a pitch near the facilities as it was very windy and starting to rain - again! As we were heading off early the next morning we hadn't taken the thermal pop-up cover so left the roof down overnight.
It didn't take long to get on the road on Saturday and we drove across to Hayling Island. We saw several VanTourer campervans and have now crossed them off our list as we felt the living area was cramped. After leaving the dealer we headed to the seafront and had lunch at the Inn on the Beach. It was very windy and bitterly cold, so we only had a short walk along the beach - looking across to Portsmouth.

We had a short drive around Hayling Island and decided we'll return one day to camp and have a walk around the island. It was dark when we got back to site but we still got pitched in about ten minutes. There was another awful storm overnight with very strong winds and torrential rain, so it was a lovely surprise to wake on Sunday to blue sky and sun.

After breakfast we packed up and drove to Lyme Regis for a walk along the seafront. The day was glorious and we walked several miles around the Cobb and the Langmoor Gardens.

We had a lovely weekend and realise how much we have missed going away. Hopefully the weather will start to improve so we can get away for more weekends.
