I live in Bath and I took the family to Wells on Christmas Day to have a look around. Both the cathedral and the Palace were closed so this vlog has been a welcome treat to see this amazingly informative tour of Wells. Thank you so much for all your hard work. 💯
So delighted to see a video from you this morning, and this one is exceptional. Wells is definitely a place I would love to visit. Wonderful way to end this year. Thank you. ♥♥♥
HOT FUZZ😂! One of the best UK films since the Carry Ons! Seriously though... This is another example of the exceptional work you do. The historic facts, the artistry with which you write, shoot, and edit. The way you weave music into the natural sound. Thank you for all you do❤. Looking forward to what you will show us in 2025!
Incredible! Absolutely beautiful & charming from beginning to end. The City of Wells is truly charming with such wonderful historical medieval buildings & Streets. The Palace is really spectacular & the Gardens are truly enchanting. The most beautiful, peaceful & tranquil Gardens I have ever seen! Filled with the soothing sounds of delightful birdsong, rushing waters & such beautiful lush foliage. Wells Cathedral is also magnificent & truly breathtaking both inside & out. Spellbinding! The City is also so charming & cozy looking at night. Truly magical! Indeed! Your Narration is outstanding, as well as, such excellent filming & footage. Very professional. I keep saying this, but it is so true. You could easily have your Videos presented on any choice Network. They would be up to par & beyond any travel Documentaries seen on any prime Network. They are truly amazing & very Professional, especially this one. Thank you for sharing this delightful, charming & beautiful City. Blessings to you both in this Christmas Season & in the New year!
My goodness, sir you make such beautiful videos. I can’t help but comment. You take us to places in depth that we will never get to see!! Thank you and happy new year from New York City
This is an absolutely beautiful video, guys. Many thanks for making these. I was very honoured to meet the Bishop of Bath & Wells when he attended a seminar I took. He was such a lovely man. I would love to visit here. 😍
What a joy to visit such a beautiful jewel of a city , can’t thank you both enough for sharing the journey with us . May 2025 take you on many more journeys , bless you both for the way you enrich our lives so unselfishly.
A perfect feast to eyes, incredible beauty, nature & architecture. I adore the way u explain it so wonderfully & appreciate England for restoring such enchanting cathedral, castle & nature life 🙂 very impressive editing 👏 I so enjoyed the time spent.. I prefer your videos more than movies cause the tranquility you share is priceless & I wish you both a great New Year with lots of love, health & success ❤
This is by far the best video you have ever produced IMHO. I was watching this video whilst playing some dumb game on my phone, and I was captivated. I'm watching it again to get all the details!
What wonderful treat for us . Almost an hour tour of the beautiful and impressive buildings in Wells both day and nighttime. I really must congratulate you on both the superb camerawork AND detailed commentary which didn't bore like some do. I think this is one of your best videos and let's hope we are able to watch many more in 2025. Thank you so much for your efforts. Let's also hope we see more "Likes" to boost the Algorithm too.
Wales is the capital of cities with its beautiful nature, people, buildings and towering cathedrals. Thank you from the heart, dear Simon, the owner of the most wonderful content. Thanks also to dear Will. I hope to God that I visit Wales.
Just when I think I've seen your best video yet you post another 1 and I say nope this is the best 1!! Another FANTASTIC video, and an hour long....what a Christmas gift!!! Thanks again for showing us this beautiful Town and all the hard work and research you did to make sure we saw the history behind the fascinating architecture! You guys are just the best!!! ❤
Thank you. Our choir had considered going there this summer, but there were other bookings, and Ben Maton says the organ is broken in a few stops. So this may be as close as I get this year. But it is so lovely!
Thank you, Memory Seekers for all the beautiful and fascinating videos you shared all through the years. Happy New Year to all of you, may God bless you all with good health and happiness as always. Thank you. Your narration is superb as always.
The church was on a par with royalty in regards to building amazing palaces. The attention to detail is mindblowing. The whole city is a wonder and it's nice to know that Elms Houses were thought of by those of note. Simon and Will you have been so thoughtful in your travels, it's good to see your subscription numbers climbing. Thank you as always. I hope that 2025 is kind to you, happy New Year.
With such informative and well presented videos such as this one, there is no need for us to endure the cattle class airfare from Oz to visit these beautiful places in England. That cathedral is stunning and the city a fascinating slice of English history. This video took me (Sue) back to the early 70s when my daughter and I visited Wells and fed the swans at that entrance over the moat. Thoroughly enjoyed the visit. Thanks guys as always and may you both have a peaceful, stress free New Year.
Omg not sure how often I can say awesome show, but I seem to say it for all yours! What a wonderful place and so pretty. Thanks again for all the effort you put into them, the history you tell us is really interesting. Happy New Year to you both. ❤ 🍻 🙂 cheers Cheryl
Another wonderful video and another place you both have visited that I have marked on google as 'want to go'! There is so much to see and do in the UK, you would never get bored!! Enjoyed my 6 weeks there last year but it wasn't enough. Happy New Year from Australia 🎉🥂
Just brilliant. I truly enjoy the way you pace your videos and take the time to explain in great and understandable detail what you are showing. A pity the cathedral is not lit at night, as I am sure that would have been an amazing sight to behold. Thank you, as always, for sharing your adventure. Happy New Year to you and yours.
Oh, beautiful place, awesome video, actually it's perfect! I've been enjoying each and every one of your work, guys, thanking you for such peace and interested places and facts. May 2025 be blessed for all of you! 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Stunning! I enjoy all your videos. Could I make a request? I especially like when you both go to a pub/restaurant and show us the meal and your comments. Keep up the good work. You never disappoint.
it’s been so nice places, thank you. BUT How can we stop sub title of translations? So annoying to watch in small screen with subtitles automatically started to appear on screen.
Wells Cathedral was in fact a Roman Catholic cathedral from around 1175/76. However, thanks to King Henry VIII, who who was originally a devout Catholic, very many Catholic cathedrals, monasteries etc. were dissolved and their contents plundered. This was because Henry was denied permission by the then pope to divorce his then wife. Henry promptly split from the Catholic Church and made himself and his descendants Supreme Head of the Church of England. It was after this that Wells cathedral became an Anglican cathedral I believe.

This is Wells. A city in Somerset. Wales is a different country entirely.
Another amazing tour! Living in the high desert of West Texas, I am transported to the UK! Thank you! 👍😊

This was a Amazing episode simply splendid
Gentlemen. This has to be your
Magnum opus. Thanks Simon
And Will.
What a beautiful place.
Absolutely great videos thabk you it's like I'm actually there well done!
Another outstanding video! Each little town/village is just as delightful as the one before it. I hope you two have a blessed & prosperous 2025 🎉🥳
45:20 great choice of music, very relaxing tour. The USP of the UK is the uniform overcast weather, everything looks perfectly lit. Thank you.
The church was on a par with royalty in regards to building amazing palaces. The attention to detail is mindblowing. The whole city is a wonder and it's nice to know that Elms Houses were thought of by those of note.

I am glad that the boy did not kick that pigeon at the palace.

Another quality video, thanks Simon and Will. Wishing you both a very happy 2025 🎉
Che luogo meraviglioso! Mi piacerebbe molto visitare il sud dell'Inghilterra ❤
Another wonderful video and another place you both have visited that I have marked on google as 'want to go'! There is so much to see and do in the UK, you would never get bored!! Enjoyed my 6 weeks there last year but it wasn't enough. Happy New Year from Australia 🎉🥂

Me after Hot Fuzz: I would like to visit Wells
Me after Simon and Will's video: I NEED to visit Wells.
Thanks for such a excellent work!
Stunning! I enjoy all your videos. Could I make a request? I especially like when you both go to a pub/restaurant and show us the meal and your comments. Keep up the good work. You never disappoint.
Love Wells. Tends to be overlooked by many tourists (a great advantage 😊) I guess because of its proximity to Bath where most visitors go.
Do more night times stuff, Wells looks amazing.
Wells seems to be a little bit of Heaven!
❤❤❤
I love these little villages you visit! I'm curious, how did St Cuthburt's church miss Henry VIII destructive hand?
👍🏻👏👍🏻👏👍🏻👏
Is there an entrance fee to go inside - if yes how much please …???
0:10 egads...this kills tires and suspension.
it’s been so nice places, thank you. BUT How can we stop sub title of translations? So annoying to watch in small screen with subtitles automatically started to appear on screen.
This is not something we set to happen and is on your device. There is a button with CC and you can turn it off there within UA-cam.
