On the Road Again!

Back ib December I was looking at a few days before the Christmas season to go away in the van.  With Chatsworth House Caravan Club site closing in the summer, that ruled out the Christmas Market there. Then I saw some vanlife vloggers had been to Sandringham Estate for the Luminate Show. 💡 Luminate also have special nights during the run where people can take their dogs. It's only one night a week. That's six nights where there are no dogs!!! Based on the dates for 2025 on their website, I made a guess on when it would be on in 2026 and booked a couple of nights at the Caravan Club site. The deposit was only £5.  I blogged on it before: https://invictamoto.blogspot.com/2026/01/sandringham-camc-site.html However, Luminate bookings opened this week and I was two days out with my guess.  I was thinking the dog friendly days would be the same but they aren't. Dog day is now Monday.  So I booked the Caravan Club site to get up there earlier on Monday and leave on Wednes...

I have booked the Sandringham site for a few nights in early December 2026. I am hoping it will mean we can visit the Luminate Christmas light show. I have gambled on dates that will include the dog friendly evening visits. I based this on the 2025 website where it says the doggy days! If not then maybe Reggie will be quite at home in the van. It's a light show and not fireworks. The website still shows the 2025 event but it gets updated in the Spring. I have booked with the £5 deposit and should I need to cancel I can and get my fiver back. https://luminate.live/sandringham-estate
