Marilyn Manzano haha
yeah---along with the world, and his wife. not so peacful then.
Well if you have the money you could. Property here is very expensive.
@@deniseg-hill1730 You will need a lot of money to do the place up. beautiful?? no it bloody isn't. there are far nicer villages in the Cotswolds that that.
@@colinellis8661
There are beautiful villages everywhere in the UK. I know the area well i grew up near Devizes and it is a lovely village so is Lacock. There are lovely villages in every county
My husband and I got to visit Castle Combe in 2018. Wonderful memory.
There are so many stunning little places scattered all over England, I love the Cotswolds, and Durham, and Whitby, can't wait to see more.
DUNSTER in SOMERSET, and it's castle, breath taking.
Weston super made north somerset great place I miss it so much
Castleton in the Peak district. Chester, I could just go on.
Paul foster nicks bar the best ever I miss england very much
I was born and raised raised in Durham 😁
When I was in UK in early 2000 and was impressed with the so many old buildings, especially in the countries. I love it.
Please, England, don't let this ever change.
We won’t. It’s all protected! 👍
Adam P I’ve visited, it’s heavenly, great to know it’s protected. Vow to go again.
they protect almost all historical buildings. it’s hard to knock them down or build whatever you want on them.
@@lilegg301 A woman painted her front door deep yellow, in Bath, it was a Georgian terrace, and every other house of that period, in the City, has plain white woodwork. She complied.
@@adam_p99 sure is
It's certainly one of England's most beautiful villages. We are blessed with many beautiful treasures that are unique and will hopefully be protected for future generations to enjoy.
@@bigrooster9794 You define a person by the colour of their skin and/or their origins? Shame on you.
@@bigrooster9794 You really are a stupid boy. Goodbye.

@Porthos Duvalon Enoch Powell would be proud of you.
@@bigrooster9794 as an african i want a piece of that beauty. i might buy a cottage
I am so fortunate to have had an aunt & uncle who lived on a farm on the outskirts of Castle Combe.
During visits, we had a favourite circular walk into the village and back.
Growing up in South East London, it was idyllic.

There are soo very many of beautiful old villages in England. Love 💕 it there.
There are many more to be fair. This was one of the first we visited when we lived there. The quaint villages seem to be nearly endless.
Any mosques yet?
@@susanapollo284 So what if there were? Quaint villages should be all Christian?? Your a hateful idiot..
@@margomazzeo1680 Be quiet you fool.
@@michaelstevenson9648 fuck you pigskin
I love that you got out of London! So many visit there and think they've seen England :( I love the walled cities of York and Chester, the Cornish coast villages set in the cliffs, the Welsh mountains and castles, the moors and, of course, the Lake District. Can't wait to go again x
What about markyate?
@Lady Jane Do you have an email I can contact you at? I'm wanting to go there in June and road trip and just wondering about the logistics of it all
@@dismaticx4583 Use the trains, if you can. The stations are in central locations and all the cities are walkable. London to York, then Edinburgh, then the Lake District (include Howarth if possible), then Chester before heading back to London. Each stop offers daily trips by bus or train. Windsor is worth a visit while you're in London. Have fun! Dorset, Cornwall and the Cotswolds are a full vacation if you ever go back.
Beautiful town! This spot just made my bucket list. I love castles and old architecture.
Village.
I love England and hope to revisit soon. Thanks for taking us along
Can you imagine this town dressed for Christmas?
The owner of the pub told us that every Christmas eve they gather in the town square to sing carols and that they offer free shots of sherry for everyone who comes. It sound's beautiful. My wife I planned to visit there around Christmas but never got around to it.
@@JonAlycia hmmm, sounds like a plan 🤔
Jon & Alycia I’m English. For me, there’s nothing like the cosy feeling you get from the community, in a pub at Christmas. Especially when the log fires burning! I don’t live anywhere near CC, but my village is similar. We have hot mulled wine instead of sherry. I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay. I recommend coming in Spring.
@@adam_p99 We love mulled wine!
@@JonAlycia Dunster in Somerset do something similar, and no doubt, many other's too, Check out the view of Dunster village, with the castle, high up in the background.
Now living in Lincolnshire, I was so pleased to find this video on castle Coombe. I used to live in Bristol just a few miles away and miss my visits to this charming village. I now feel very home sick! but thank you for this pleasure of a good memory.
Nice to hear from you Michael. I visited Ireland many (many!) years ago for a honeymoon in Kilarney! the horse town then - took a pony trek through the gap of Dunloe (first time riding a rather worn out donkey!) and a boat trip back. the countryside was beautiful, but I wasn't allowed in the local pub for a Guiness!! yes all safe at the moment, here in Lincs. its a end of the world place, people are hardly alive anyway!! beth
Hello again! it's so good to have someone to talk to/write to .. live in a very small town and have obviously been very isolated of late, though used to my own company when I'm given orders, they are not lightly taken. I have my car so I do get out to avoid cabin fever. My daughter is in NZ and non communicative! so its been a pretty lonely time.
@@Michael-bf1dt Hello again, sent a reply but not sure it has gone. It's so good to have someone to talk/write to. I live in a very small town and alone, but although very used to my own company when being given orders they are not well received! I do have my car so can get out for a breather to avoid cabin fever!! my daughter is in NZ and not very communicative, so thanks for writing. I guess we all have some very odd stories to tell about our experiences in this peculiar time, freedom gone - I got reported the other day for not wearing a mask in Sainsbury's!!
@@Michael-bf1dt Just fell asleep! very hot here. did you receive my last two messages? My computer is always on and I nip in and out of my little room now and then - look forward to hearing from you.
@@Michael-bf1dt I wonder what is going on? I have sent two replies, but they appear to not be going through. Do you think it would be a good idea to exchange emails?
I'm English from a small market town thats is beautiful but that shocked me how stunning that village is.
Wow, you will enjoy the evening morning there, would you like to show me your village online?
Been to England 2 times
If I had the bread I'd move there and never come back
We loved it! But we're back in Canada now
Jay, Jon and Alycia. Youre welcome back anytime, guys! Glad you enjoyed it. 🇬🇧🇺🇸🇨🇦
My wife and i were there in May for a short break, beautiful village, with lovely country walks.
Our family lived nearby in the mid sixties and we went to see the village during the filming of the musical Dr. Dolittle with Rex Harrison and Anthony Newly.The whole village was transformed into a fishing village by the sea.All the TV antennas had been removed as it was a period movie.
Sorry i entered your house on my visit, but i looked through your window and Homes Under The Hammer was on Tv i thought (mistakenly) you wouldnt mind if i sat on your sofa and watched it, I love that show.
there as still no TV antennas, its all underground cable.
This is the kind of beautiful village I would love to live in.!! 🤗💕
I lived in Castle Combe back in 1976. The house(s) I lived in you can see just to the right at the end of the bridge 1:11 and 6:45 the one with the peaked entrance. The house belonged to my then fiancee's parents. The house in fact consists of two houses. The stone faced house and the white house beside it. They purchased both houses and connected them. We lived there for 6 months. It was very quiet indeed. Back then, as today there were no street lights. There were two pubs in the Market Square. One for the locals and one for the tourists. The one for the locals had a parrot and a beer drinking dog. This is the village where they filmed part of the original Dr Doolittle movie. Fun fact the wall along the creek was built for the movie Dr. Doolittle and only dates from the 1960's. The only problem we used to have was when buses of tourists would visit the village. They thought that no one lived in the houses and they often just walked into the house unannounced. That was always fun.
Thanks for sharing that! Loved the original Dr. Doolittle & own it on VHS & DVD! Every vlog of Castle Combe I've seen shows that wall, & I truly thought it was as old as the stone houses!
@@MAINER4779 The movie crew actually rebuilt the bridge as well. I watch the movie because my then fiancee's father can be seen sitting in the upstairs window during the scene they filmed along side the "river". He was so furious that he refused to move out of the window during the shooting. I also noticed that cars drive through the town. When we lived there no cars were ever allowed through the town. Since there are no street lights in town walking home from the pub was a bit tricky. Also all those "shoppes" did not exist when I lived there. We used to walk on the Manor House grounds. We had permission from the Manor House.
@@MAINER4779 The film company also rebuilt the bridge for the movie. My fiancee's father was so annoyed by the filming that sat in the upstairs window during the filming and refused to move. You can actually see him in the movie. When we lived there you could not drive a vehicle through the town. Today, as then, there are no street lights in the village. It made walking home from the pub very tricky. We used to walk the Manor House grounds. We had permission from the Manor House since it was restricted in those days. There were also no "shoppes" in the town when we lived there. It was a town of older folk who just wanted to live there is peace tolerating the day tourists.
As someone living in the congested and noisy village, I love the quietness and peace vibe here
To feel the virtual wind on my face through the car window was much enjoyed and appreciated.
lol
Thank you Castle Comb for your stunning breath taking sights. May rural England be preserved till End Time.
This is about 20 minutes from where I live have been on several walks around the village and surrounding countryside they also filmed war horse in village
Hi
Lucky you😊
Me too
I used to live in corsham Wiltshire I was born there but not now
I don't see even a single person there. Is it like the abandoned village?
For "town" read "village",
for "smokestack" read "chimney"
It is so magnificent village I saw and enjoyed in this video but one day I wish to go to castle combe British people are very lucky who is near with this village
Me and my daughter and son visited england last September. we've been in castle Combe while visiting cotswold, its just wooahhhh! !!!! ❤ hope to go back again and again. 😊 I'm in love with england countryside from mauritius 💋👍
We do have a gorgeous country but we visited Mauritius last year & it's just as beautiful ♥️
Hi pleased to see a Mauritian here. I've been to Castle Combe too with my wife and Cotswold. Been to Crumbia also 🙂.
There's lots of places like that all over the UK. And you're very welcome to visit. When this covid has gone. You really need to see for yourselves.
We lived in the UK for a year and a half and we did, in fact, visit many stunning villages. This video was filmed pretty early on in our time there. We were blown away by how many little villages and Hamlets tucked away in the UK
@@JonAlycia i would love to live in village
I remember seeing so many of these quaint little villages laying in ruins after being decimated by the bombings during WW2! So happy to see this community thriving still! Cheers 🍺
Did you bollocks.
@Slavery was just renamed employment not these exact villages! The ones that are laying in ruins that they will show you when you take a tour of England and it's landmarks!
@Slavery was just renamed employment this tour was over 40 years ago and I saw what I saw so I am sorry if you think I am spreading lies. I saw houses and churches still sitting there damaged by bombs.

That village is like a piece of heaven on this earth. Thank-you for sharing this breathtaking tour with those of us who can only dream of visiting these places.
Thanks for watching :)
Bibury in the Cotswolds is also very nice
I'm mexican and I'd love going to this beautiful town, it looks like a fairy tale
Moonatic Black You would be welcome here. I have been to Mexico several times...very friendly people generally.
@@janheard3826 thank you :)
Michael Walton Tbf mexicans are a lot better than the Arabs and South Asians coming here

One of my favourite villages. My first visit was as a child when my older cousin married in the church there. Simply gorgeous.
Very beautiful.
I love England!😍
Thank you for this video!😍
So beautiful, I imagine the worst thing about that village is leaving it 😢
I love the way you present. Your videos are informative and picturesque. It's about what you are experiencing through your eyes, and not like others who show us the "all about e" version. You are refreshing. Looking forward to more.
There are many places like this all over the UK. The whole country is full of it.
That is very true. We were new to the UK when we found this Village. we found many like it later.
There are probably several villages of similar beauty in England. It's in the eye of the beholder!
You're totally correct, we've seen other villages that are equally beautiful and quaint since visiting here
There are loads, but they are tucked away.
You have to follow your nose and travel the roads nobody else uses.
@@TryptychUK That's exactly how I found this one, by simply exploring one day
@@JonAlycia Castle Combe is world famous. There are some just as nice, but far less well trodden. I could reveal them to you but then they would be inundated with tourists. :) Us locals know to keep quiet about such things.
@@TryptychUK I respect that! When I lived there I discovered many. I once found such a beautiful Village in the evening just before sunset. It was stunning, somewhere in Somerset, I have no idea what it was called nor how to ever find it again. But I really took in the moment enjoyed it's quaint beauty.
I have been here.. Thanks for posting this video.. I could relive for a moment. Such a lovely place..
Yesterday we went to Chipping Campden & Broadway in the Cotswolds, both very quaint, picturesque towns but this place is far far superior 😍😍
I actually live here in castle Combe and the tourists can be so annoying blocking the roads and always taking pictures of your house or looking through your window some people actually get signs on there doors saying private so people don't try and go inside
Sweet Stefka I know right
I live in a castle and the kids always say it is where the nice King and Queen live, I will catch little ones peering in the windows to catch a glimpse, and I just smile and bring them candy or ice cream in the summer. I don't seem to mind I love children so it is a delight when they stop by.
Yeah I can imagine that it certain months the tourists can be real troublesome. Since we lived near by it was important to us to check out what's in our area. Thanks for letting us enjoy your town.
They think it's a theme park.
There was a viral video of Chinese Tourist looking through windows in a English Village. They took over the whole village & walking through people's gardens. No respect at all.
Being a life long "Beauty and the Beast" fan , I agree with Jon, Castle Combe doors look like Belle's little(French) provincial town. Castle Combe is absolutely beautiful. I bet the manor is a bed and breakfast. Thanks for sharing
@@Michael-bf1dt Hope you are doing well as well. Thanks for the complement on my comment
7:22 -- just beautiful, and I loved the old church... and the stream and the bridge... Thank you for this little tour. I really enjoyed it!
The wonderful thing about the uk is you can travel through numerous villages all miles apart . They all have diffrent time periods and history in them.
Thank you for sharing your video of this quaint town. It was simply beautiful. Enjoyed all the info you shared.
God it's so beautiful here! I wish I could see inside! Thank you so much for taking us we you to this amazing place!
Thanks for watching!
That is a beautiful village. Seeing cars parked in it looked odd. I would have expected horse drawn carts!
Just went to this amazing place today and a couple of things have changed as the Wadworth restaurant has closed, but the Castle Inn across the street was beautiful and had amazing food and service!
The other thing that has changed is we could not get into the Manor House gates as they were closed, so you were very lucky to see it and drive through it.
A lot of the shops were closed too which we had come across that you walked past as well, but the bakery goods were still out for other people to chose from and buy which Is still awesome.
We also spent a lot of time in the town taking photos and in the Church and the bridge.
Such a scenic ride in and out. One never to be forgotten.
How could anyone dislike this video? Maybe the sound quality?That sandwich looked fantastic. What a beautiful village.
Well, what a pretty and historic place! The lunch, well, enough to feed an army.
Beautiful thank you so much for showing us. Hugs from Greece, Rhodes.
Thank you for putting this up here, my great grandparents
Unlike america england has beautiful little villages. As an American I have never seen a small village with beautiful architecture like this in america.
Lovely video of Castle Coombe guys! We’re so fortunate to still have many beautiful villages like this around the UK. However in the summer months it’s rammed with tourists with parking up a nightmare. Shopkeepers I would imagine do very well, but for the local residencies, it’s the price they pay for living in an archetypal English village. So you we’re obviously there at the right time. Cheers!
I loved watching your video!! It is so nice to know that places like truly do exist! Just so beautiful!

Really enjoyed your vid never been to Castle Combe. The Cotswolds is a lovely part of England with many picturesque villages.Your right about the houses they would be very expensive now days. Glad you enjoyed your visit. From a brit.🇬🇧
53 yearsago, I was working in Bournemouth not far from CC. I had applied for a job in the US and was almost certain to get it as so many Americans were in the military fighting the VN war and US companies were recruiting heavily in the UK. I got a letter, did not open it. I had the day off so drove to CC and had a pub lunch. I opened the letter and read it sitting outside this beautiful old pub. I emigrated six weeks later. So CC has a particular place in my life.
Michael, thank you for sharing this bit of history unknown to so many Americans, yes the Vietnam war did create a shortage of men in many positions all across America. I was still too young and still in school, but I do remember many men had signed up in 1972, but were never called up because the war was near an end.
This is not the first time America looked for able and willing men from Europe to work in America. My grandfather, Leo, at the age of 16 sent a letter to Henry Ford at the Ford Factory to work in America. He arrived from Italy knowing only a few words and $3 to his name. He promised Henry Ford in the letter never to miss one day of work and in 52 years he never missed one day of work. My grandfather was a man of his word and was a good friend of Henry Ford.
That's amazing.
This place would look great in Christmas 🎄
@Michael Walton don't be rude and bigheaded
@Michael Walton do show this sentence to ur parents. they would be proud to see their son writing a cohesive sentence.
@Michael Walton Sir, Saikat is a hindu bengali name and he is a hindu. We hindus have never attacked any country , never enslaved anyone on the basis of culture, race or religion. British has looted us but we aren't taught to hate british or anyone. We believe in " Vasudhiva Kutumbakam"( its a sanskrit word) which means " The whole world is a single family. " We are spiritual , a true hindu can never ever have materialistic thoughts. Don't compare us with " Peacefuls" ( M...ms) . Rather I would say you should visit our Motherland India once and must visit our temples ( I am not telling you to embrace hinduism, never , I am requesting you to see how we live , you can get the positive vibes). England will be a great place if you deport all the " peacefuls" .

And too think that there are hundreds more like it in the interior of the UK.Like going back in ⌚⏰.🎩🏰
खूपच छान .
England’s at its best in late Spring imo.
So beautiful, so charming.
Wow, I'm so glad I watched this video.
Wish I could go back in time after seeing this.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.!!!!
@@Michael-bf1dt Hello
No time to write. Life is very hectic.
Here in Mumbai, it's the monsoon season. Rains and very often floods.
Have to be careful about dengue and malaria. As well as covid. Covid seems to be just going on and on.
Ireland is probably in a much better position, with regard to covid than India.
Hope all is well.
@@Michael-bf1dt Hi Michael.
Trust all is well.
We here are ok. Taking all the precautions needed for this
Pandemic.
Its difficult, because India is a densely populated country. At any point of time there are always a lot of people on the roads.
Try to keep busy, because we have been in lockdown since March. Things are slowly opening up. But its difficult in a crowded city.
You said you liked the video. I think Ireland has a lot of beautiful places as well. .. there are beautiful places in the interiors of India. But the European countries have a charm of their own.
Very different from Asian countries.
I did not get to see much in Ireland.
But I did like Cork very much.
Anyway, you n family take care.
@@Michael-bf1dt hello Michael,
Yes I am really busy.
Lot of time goes in taking care of ourselves because of covid.
Have to sanitize everything. Especially door handles, and things like that.
I live in an apartment. There are strict rules around, but we have trades people coming into the building for work purposes. So constantly on our toes.
I'm in the management committee of the apartment, so have a lot of stuff to be dealt with.
We have to be so cautious. There were 20,000 cases of covid in 1 day.
India is expected to soon take over the no.1 position in the world.
Anyway, hope you all are doing fine.
We also have a festival happening this week. We have a shrine devoted to our lady in this suburb,,,,where I live.
It's over 100 years old.
And its celebrated in September.
And although, because of the covid there are no celebrations. Still try to keep up the traditions .
Which means lots of cooking. I belong to a community called the East Indians.
Who live in the west ...that's a bit funny.
But in 15th century, Portuguese came to India. Locals converted to catholic religion. That's why I have the surname Fernandes. But ,later on British came to India. My grandfather worked for the East India company. and locally we have a community called Maharashtra.
We have a culture, a combinations of the 3. We follow a blend of the 3 cultures.
With this, our cuisine is a blend of the 3.
So gonna be busy cooking and preparing traditional dishes. That's the only part of the feast we can have now, because of covid. So busy.!!!
Sorry writing too much.
Tell me some of Irish traditions.
Gotta cut this short as I have to go out.
But take care.
@@Michael-bf1dt hello
Michael,
Just read your message.
Unfortunately, I will not be able to reply on email. Today, I am going,
to a relatives home, out of the city.
I will be there for about a month.
There is no internet over there.
So I will not be in touch.
You takes care. All the best.
Regards.
Just imagine it being covered in snow😍.
Such a beautiful and appreciative video....many, like you good people, who realise there is life outside of London, are seeing more than, perhaps 90% of people, who have lived in the UK for all their lives!
People were really tiny back then (check out Queen Victoria, who was only1.52 ms)........
London holds no appeal for me as I prefer the countryside, the small villages, the winding & narrow roads, no heavy traffic and just listening to the birds and taking in all the lovely sites of nature.
It's funny, we've received a bit of flack for "walking around and peering in windows" etc which we never did apart from the places that were intentionally open to tourists. All in all we agree though, the little towns are very special to us when travelling. It's a blessing to see places off the beaten path. Although we do love London though!
I remember when I brought my American friend to visit my hometown and he was having an absolute field day 😂 He couldn't believe there was just a 12th century church in the town square like no big deal and got pretty excited when I took him to the popular café here, which probably looks very English with the Tudor black and white style. It was kind of sweet because I don't think he, like many others, had really considered stepping out of London and yet he said he loved it so much more 🙂
Beautiful wedding location - Fyvie castle 🏰 ua-cam.com/video/HlXLyRxJPVo/v-deo.html
Soo beautiful and timeless thank you for sharing your video I love it 👍🏰 I really wanted to take a look inside the castle 😪
It looks like a Thomas Kinkade painting but without the yellow light shining out of every window
:)
Wonderful.
Wonderful.
Wonderful.
An absolute Dreamland.
Thank you!!!!!!!
Beautiful place with pure and pristine atmosphere !
Lovely video. I'm a London boy, so great seeing the countryside too, especially these beautiful little villages. My ideal is a small Little village with a cricket green next to a pub!
I'm sure its out there!
I live in one in Hertfordshire !
About 20 minutes (by car) from Castle Coombe is a village called Lacock which is wholly owned by the The National Trust. Frozen in time (no satellite dishes allowed), we stayed in a lovely 15th century inn (The Sign of the Angel), it was like living in history.
Wow. Thanks for sharing. I wish I knew about it when we still lived in the UK. I did as much exploring around Somerset as I could but there are simply too many places to visit.
Hi could you please post some video on Scottish village?
We toured all around Scotland From Edinburgh to Aberdeen, Loch Ness and Inverness, then up to John O'groates, continued on West around the Nothern tip of Scotland then down into the Hebrides. It was an amazing multi week trip, but unfortunately we couldn't keep up with editing. We started posting much more on Instagram.
At Christmas, i imagine it would be like stepping into one of those Old fashioned Christmas cards.
Idyllic.
Watched 13 February 2020. UK. A trip down memory lane. Visited Castle Coombe several times when I used to live in Bristol. Little known fact is Castle Coombe was used to film the original Dr Dolittle film with Rex Harrison back in the 1960s I think it was. Thanks for downloading. You seemed a lovely couple. I only wish someone had invited you into one of their homes to look around. Thanks once again. X
I visited here in 1992. Said to be the most beautiful village in England.

Places like this is where we get our fairy tales from!
No, that would be Denmark and Germany.
England is mine dream destination , people of England looks so beautiful I love their culture , their faith towards God ..love from India💕

I think you’re confused - the UK is one of the most atheist places in the world. Over 60% of our country does not follow a religion.
@@mizfeng1442 that is changing, ethnic Brits are the fastest growing region for our holy Islamic faith. insha'Allah
@@kingofracism That’s why I plan on leaving the country, to get away from all the terror attacks that have been happening since people of your cult started living here 🥰🥰
The real England
of old
So true
I love england so much and I miss it everyday of my life
Nope cause their were no tourists crowding the streets and I know I’m not wrong because I live their
@@MrDaiseymay It'll be there long after you're kicking up the daisies, comrade.
Viva Inglaterra!
Beautiful England 🙏👍👍
Love the village. I used to be stationed up the road at RAF Hullavington and used to drive those country lanes on a Sunday to drink in the pub there. BTW, Castle Combe is where Dr Doolittle was filmed.
My Dad worked as a civilian Fireman at RAF Lyneham for 22 years. We lived 30 minutes drive from this village in West Lavington Nr Devizes.
And War Horse
Thanks for the nice video. I am now far from England and feeling the taste of England watching your videos. Remembering my memories of there. Make more videos please. I love to watch.
We have actually moved back to Canada and we're really missing it there. We loved living in the UK
@@JonAlycia Yes. I have moved back also. Thanks for the upload. It was nice. In fact UK is nice.
Love this! Thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for watching :)
This video makes me glad I live in England !
We also have Blackpool Preston Bolton etc etc -- GREAT PLACES not to visit
Lovely! Simply out of the fairytales. Would love to live in this little village, only without the cars, horse and carriages only. Thank you for your beautiful filming. Blessings Jill
please dont change and i hope someday i can go there~ thanks for the vlog! so amazing!!
You know those narrow roads would freak me out. The church reminds me of some that Jesse and I went into in New Foundland. Very cool place!
angel pearce the difference is that these are high roads and don’t have any cliffs so it’s not scary -Jon
Great video..we have some fantastic beautiful villages here in UK. I will have to visit.
This place is sublime and stunningly beautiful. Long life to England
I like how she looks like Lagertha's younger sister. God bless you and keep you both.🕊️🎶
I live 4 miles away in a town called Corsham, just a nice. You should have seen Castle Combe before the little stream in the main road was piped and covered. Watch the original version of Dr Doolittle , the village in the film is Castle Combe....
Do you know if the smaller doors were for defense purposes or were the earlier generations just shorter than today? In many old houses, even the interior doors are lower.
People were much smaller, is one reason, but over time I think the ground has dropped under the weight of the stones...Also, in castles, the stone staircase was built to be tight, and the steps went in a right spiral, so invaders would be made to use their left arm for sword fights...
B Huckaby ...... also ..... lower doors trap in more heat in the winter ....... cooler in the summer
That makes sense
No, people were much smaller the farther you go back in England, due to the diet etc. If you were to wake up in London in 1800 you would think you had landed in Lilliput, as the average height of men would have been around 5’ 5” and women 5’.
I used to live in a 16th century cottage, sadly in the Black Country and not the Cotswolds but the roofs were head bangingly low and the doors were a good 6 inches smaller. Average male height in the UK was about 5 foot 4 inches in the 16th century, it's 6 inches more today.
As soon as we are able (post lockdown) we will be visiting all these beautiful places again 🤞🏼💕
You should try Matlock in Derbyshire & also Lynton & Lynmouth in Devon.
Thanks Sharon, we have done Matlock just before it got flooded, lovely fish & chips 😋. I would imagine Devon as being a bit busy at the moment 🦆💕
@@pamcullen537 definitely would be busy but it's such a gorgeous place that I'd love to live there & the surrounding area is just as nice. Hope you get there one day & yes the fish & chips are good in Matlock😁 happy travelling!
Antique old elegance style

They filmed some scenes for the film 'Warhorse' here.
That place is magical
Very cool! I wish I could visit...thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching :)
Not yet been to Castle Combe myself yet as I have no car...but it looks nice. Thanks for sharing this. Some of my favourite Oxfordshire Cotswolds villages include Minster Lovell, Asthal, Swinbrook- which are all within 10km of each other, so make for a good walk or bike ride.
Thanks for the comment :)
We’re living in Canada again now. We’d love to go back to the UK and visit friends. Would love to see some of those villages next time. Cheers
Glad you enjoyed your visit home.

Please tell me, which small village is the most easy to get to from London without a car? I'm going to London in May and Äi want to visit one(or two) pretty village by train or by bus!
It’s tough to say because often buses don’t go to the small villages. This one is only accessible by car, as far as I’m aware. Hopefully some other people will see this and be able to make their own suggestions.
I recommend taking a bus to Bath. It’s a lovely place! With lots of Roman History
