Safari Error Message: A problem occurred with this webpage so it was reloaded

Been having this issue occur since Wednesday 17/12 on my iPad Air. It occurs on multiple web pages such ashttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/index.html and http://www.three.co.uk/ very very annoying.

The weird thing is the pages work fine on my iPhone 5 using Safari so I know its not the websites.

I've tried resetting network settings and also deleting safari data and history to no avail. Just what is the issue and how come its only just started. I'm running latest iOS 8 on both devices.

Help please...

iPad Air, iOS 8.1.2

That could just be due to a temporary network or DNS problem. The iPhone may be referencing a different version of the website for mobile devices.

Regardless of whether the page URL is the same for iPhone and iPad the browser ID passed to the website may cause different content or, perhaps, a completely different server to be referenced.
