Bakewell and Buxton similar-Peak District. Holmfirth quaint too, Elsecar and Wentworth-but do thorough history before going, as will miss a lot otherwise. I enjoyed Callendar too, up in the Trossachs with the Rob Roy Centre.
@@Travelwow7 Cheers. Totnes and Glastonbury are also full of magic, but do your research, as certain times of year, and day are much better than others. Totnes best on a Friday, or for Christmas markets. Glastonbury, in summer holidays, or Xmas too. St Ives is stunning, and has some lovely cobbled streets, medieval history, stunning light, and beautiful beaches. Tintagel is perhaps the most magical, and lots to see there, not least the Castle, the Museum, and St Nectan's Waterfall, along with Boscastle harbour. Naturally, you would have more than one video there, perhaps Tintagel one, and the Waterfall and Boscastle a second. I don't know how far you travel, but the SW has a few other hidden spots that are beautiful, such as Padstow, so needs more than an away day. From Manchester though, you can easily go to the Peaks, and S Yorks to see some of the sites I mentioned. Wentworth has now opened its House to the public, as the National Trust have taken it over, nearby village with Garden Centre-old secret garden, and lovely church that was the Earl's who lived in the big house, which is still the longest fronted house in Europe. About a mile away is the Elsecar Museum of Coal Mining, and a well-preserved Canal that once ran onto the Ouse and Humber to the East, and Barnsley and Manchester Ship canals of the West. Thus, Liverpool and Hull were navigable from Barnsley, not so long ago, by canal and train. Wherever you go-have fun. And thanks for the videos.
@@Travelwow7 ok third time trying- I was born there in 52 and stayed till 74 when the town had started to die with industries engineering and textiles closing.The place was dismal and depressed, the houses were covered in soot from coal fire.I remember the slums of garden street, now a car park, and the slum houses near the hole in the wall pub. Still go back one a year to reminisce but wouldn’t live there.
@@Alanhock75 Don’t forget Acre I’ll and the asbestos from 1939 to about 1970; the effects lasted for many years longer. The decline of the town did have one advantage, it was a cheap place to live in those days, which attracted the artists, musicians, hippies etc who helped to turn the town into what it is today. It’s also claimed to be the most lesbian friendly town in the UK.
Thanks a lot for your love and support.

True.. it’s a beautiful fairy tale type town.. fortunate to be there on a sunny day.

Many people like Whitby and York, bit bigger, but still have a humble aspects of life, and a very nice intimate ambience.
@@nialloneill5097 Thanks for sharing.. will try to visit these places

I just love Hebden Bridge the fact it is dog friendly is a plus. Other towns should learn from hebden how to do things .
👍
I live here
Super 👍
@@Travelwow7 :)
A lot of teenage alcohol issues in the town
Oh ok 👍
Went their today with my mum. It’s an interesting place to visit but I wouldn’t live there.
Nice.. Thanks for sharing your experience 👍
Why not out of interest? I like the place myself but I do find it a bit...pretentious? Not sure I've chosen the right word.
seems like a good place to live. in the country but then only half hour to the city centres of Manchester or Leeds.
@@canyouwhenyourdrunk 👍
Too expensive it's become an international town
Asbestos town
👍
Trouser town
What's quirky? No history? No ommemt?
Will add history is future videos 👍
Pretty little place but twee, touristy and not very interesting!
