  • We visit Malmesbury in The Cotswolds England to see what this lovely Cotswold market town is like, and to visit the famous Malmesbury abbey and walk the historic town streets. If you are looking to travel for a Cotswolds holiday then Malmesbury is a must visit place,
    Malmesbury is a market town in Wiltshire, England. It's nestled quite nicely in the Cotswolds on the top of a (very steep!) hill. It's famous for being the town where King Athelstan the first king of England is buried. You can visit his tomb in Malmesbury Abbey (as you can see in this video).
    It's our first visit to Malmesbury and we 'enjoy' a stroll uphill towards the Abbey, passing the Smoking Dog pub and other shops, hotels and restaurants that are situated in the town centre. We visit the Market Square and Market Cross which is a historic grade II listed structure and worth looking at if you visit here.
    The town is home to the tomb of King Athelstan in the Abbey where he is buried. It's definitely worth a visit to the Abbey to enjoy a quiet wander, and to have tea and cake in the Abbey gardens courtesy of the lovely cafe there.
    This town is a must visit for anyone looking for a day trip or holiday in the Cotswolds, England.

    Hi There, what a very beautiful town, so loved watching this video you did, I'm still hoping you come to Marple, We've got a few things you would like to see, A very old picture house dates back to the 1880s, and in our Memorial Park we have pictures up of men who have fought in the war, plus bargers around, and there is only a stump that's left of Marple Hall which was meant to be haunted, Don't know if that was true or just made up, Keep those nice video's coming in, Joan Taylor.

    BELEIVE ME. YOU HAVE MADE ME DISCOVER THE BEAUTY OF ENGLAND COUNTRY SIDE, UNKNOWN FOR ALMOST EVERYBODY. NOTHING TO DO WITH LONDON OR SIMILAR HUGE CITIES. IT IS SO MUCH SO, THAT YOU MAKE GROW UP THE DESIRE OF SPENDING A TIME OVER THERE. I AM QUITE SURE THAT YOUR INFLUENCE IS SPREAD ALL ALONG YOUR COUNTRY AND EVEN FURTHER AWAY. CONGRATULATIONS. NEVER CEASE YOUR WAY. MAY BE YOU HAVE NOTICED OR PERHAPS NOT, THAT I HAVE TRIED TO USE NON DISTORSIONED ENGLISH LANGUAGE, FOR YOU KNOW, U.S. INFLUENCE IS UNFORTUNALLY MAKING ENGLISH LANGUAGE ENTER INTO A NON DESIRED DECADENCE. MAY BE THAT IN OTHER OCCASSION I SHALL LET YOU KNOW WHERE I IM ADDRESSING YOU FROM, IF THIS IS YOU DESIRE. MEANWHILE TAKE A LITTLE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. OF COURSE, MY MOTHER LANGUAGE IS NOT ENGLISH. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT COMMENTS ARE MADE BY NOT A SINGLE LATIN VISITOR. I INCLUDE FRENCH, GERMAN, AUSTRIAN AND THE LOT. CURIOUS IT IS. BEST REGARDS.
