Describing where he stays, Walker said: "I'd say it's a posh caravan - like a chalet that we've got. "I wouldn't even call it a lodge, it's a posh caravan. "We just go down there, there's just a really good vibe, good community, it's like a posh council estate. "The kids go off in the morning, leave you, and they come back at night, it's fantastic. "You go to these nice hotels and everything, and your kids are swinging off the chandeliers and I'm thinking 'oh my gosh, get me out' - that's why I prefer to be down there." Abersoch has long been an extremely popular holiday destination for visitors from the North West of England, giving it a 'Cheshire by the Sea' moniker. It features some of the country's top caravan parks and other notable visitors have included Wayne and Coleen Rooney - and Love Island celebrity Molly-Mae Hague.
