There are lots of lovely little quintessentially English towns and villages, the UK is so much more than London and the cities. Glad you've had a chance to see some of that.
This group of videos are the best by American visitors to our shores I have seen. Lovely people making the most of their trip.
What a lovely family, welcome to the UK guys.
The people that don't give a thumbs up don't know a good town or community.
Food doesn't have calories when you're on vacation. 😋🇬🇧💓
North Yorkshire is one of the best parts of England. We used to go there a lot,
staying with relatives in Catterick. We must get back there one day.
It's pretty enough. Tbh, there are hundreds of villages and small towns, up and down the contry that are just as pretty, or more so. I think we sometimes take it for granted... :)
Thank you Kellam Family for sharing! It’s so peaceful, clean and beautiful! ❤️😊 I loved the Afternoon Tea❤️
Smashing that you have ventured further than london
It looks like your all enjoying your vacation. Thanks for showing us these beautiful places.
Can I just say I have truly loved watching these videos of your trip, because this is so special for you guys!💖
I live in the West Midlands and love coming to Masham,Middleham and Leyburn its like living in a perfect world.I have stopped 4 times in Middleham at The Roundhouse and The Priory and would recommend it 100%, staying again end of August can't wait!!
Well done for getting out of London and visiting wonderful Yorkshire. Masham is a lovely place, isnt it? Interesting to see you went to Swinton Park. My cousin had her wedding there and took over the whole place for the weekend.
Really nice to see someone elses perception of my home patch & glad you enjoyed it. Come back soon.
I loved this little town....what beautiful flowers in the window boxes and hanging baskets also in the market. Thank you for taking me to a proper English Tea...I would have loved the goodies on the trays. Your scone with jam looked delicious. The views all around were gorgeous. I think this is one of my favorite spots so far. Have a Blessed day.
So refreshing to see American tourists getting out of the big smoke and heading north. Especially to Yorkshire, where I hail from and still live.
God's Own County.
Masham is indeed gorgeous.
THANK YOU for taking us along on this well deserved beautiful adventure!!!
I hope you all have a wonderful vacation visiting the United Kingdom. So lovely to see that you have ventured outside of London, as there are some amazing places to see. Enjoy!
What an awesome vacation video! I enjoyed it so much and learned a few things too. Thanks so much for sharing. Well done! 👍
I live in the north of England, i don't know why but these vlogs have been lovely, you've made me tearfull about my own country, you tend to walk around with blinkers on and take no notice of the things around you, so Thankyou for opening my eyes, so glad you seem to be having a great holiday and having a taste of everything not just food 😂, looking forward to all the other vlogs which I'm going to enjoy soo much, the world is beutifull i just wish we took care of it more ☹️ Thankyou keep safe on your travels xxx
same feeling here, have you seen them in London too? I felt the same way.
True. These small towns are pretty much ten a penny in the UK, but you never pay attention to just how beautiful they are.
Have the oldest of its kind Cathedral in Ripon what makes it a city third smallest in the country, goes back to literally around the 650s, well with the original Saxon crypt as well (Alfred the Great and all that Monarch of the West Saxons before even England was established and unified as a country of course and where Masham certainly would have been if it didnt exist back then would have been like Ripon in the Anglian Kingdom of Northumbria (going up to part of Scotland even or what became Scotland.
I would LOVE to live in a small village like that, in a cottage. I could do tea time DAILY, looks so good!!Thanks so much for sharing and making this video. I'm sure your having a fantastic time!! Wishing you a continued safe, stress free and happy journey!! looking forward to seeing more when/if you get the time.
There is lot more to see than just visiting London .Glad you went to Yorkshire My self I am a keen cyclist and love going out in to the English country side so peaceful .
Thank you for taking us along! I too enjoyed the afternoon tea!! ☕
What a beautiful English town. Thank you for sharing it with us!
That was wonderful. Thanks for taking us along.
Love the town. It is a place I could live in. Sounds like you all are having a great time. Can't wait for the next video. :) :)
LOVED IT! IT was so nice to see where you have been. Lovely towns. Enjoyed the interviews!
Great to see you all visited my home county of Yorkshire. And the visit to Betty's tea rooms.
You all look like you had the trip of a lifetime.
Lovely. Just loved the market with the baked goods. Yum!!! The flowers...🌸🌺🌻🌹beautiful!!!
Excellent video. I love watching videos of overseas visitors actually finding the real England and being surprised that their preconceptions are unfounded. We English have a special affinity towards Americans due to the debt of gratitude we have for the sacrifice of their forebearers made in helping to preserve our freedom.
It was 'quaint' though! 😉
Thanks for the wonderful travel video. Great memories for your family!
What a beautiful town! Thank you for sharing.
Glad you visited the Dales. Masham is a great place. Unfortunately if you suffer with hay fever you have to grin and bear it because the beauty of the Dales is not to be missed and so unforgettable. Lived there for 3 years and was so sorry to have to move south. Have a great time in Scotland.
I live in South Yorkshire, beautiful place x
beautiful - and your not far from where my grand dad was born and grew up in Sowerby before he ran away to sea all those years ago - lucky you
Wow! This is fantastic, Tawra and Mike!! Hope to see you on a live stream soon!!! Enjoy!!!! Galina
Thank you so much for sharing your holiday with us! Jill
So pleased you visited outside of London. You guys looked to have had a great time.
Omgoodness that High Tea looked delicious.. Scones with jam and cream yum. Any cucumber sandwiches?
What a lovely town and lovely people and those fish and chips sure looked delicious. Have fun.
Masham was a great find. Beautiful place 😍❤️
Wow. I can’t wait to see what you got me for Christmas out of that catalog!!! Looks like your having fun!
LOL! Me too!
Keep them coming they are great.
Wow! Thanks for taking us along on your visit to Yorkshire. I've wanted to see it ever since reading the series of James Herriot books. And yes I know his name wasn't really James Herriot and some of the stories were embellished a bit. It was his description of the beautiful countryside, small towns and people that intrigued me. It is as lovely as he said it was. Thanks for sharing this beautiful part of England with us.
James Herriott's "Darrowby" is real life Thirsk, located about 12 miles due east of Masham. And although I believe his vet son is since retired, the surgery that James (real name Alfred White) and Siegfried (Donald Sinclair) ran is in Thirsk and open as a museum. BTW, I know several people who had him as their vet, and VERY few of the stories were embellished.
@@maxsdad538 Fascinating! Thanks for the input. I am currently enjoying watching the series on pbs. It is even more interesting since my son is studying to be a vet. The scenery is beautiful too.
Nice video. Great to see my beautiful Yorkshire flag flying proud too.
Really sensitively captured video of a beautiful place....one of many here in North Yorkshire, and I subbed for you!
You know, living in the county, as I do, you could be forgiven for thinking there was nothing wrong with the world, if you didn't travel to certain other areas, that are not really so far away, and/or watch the news!
It's taken 'they' say, over a ridiculous three hundred million years to get to where we are, and there are those who are hell bent on destroying everything, before this century is out!
Thank you Tawra and Mike, for allowing us to follow your trip. Mashum looks to be wonderful and the small town has such appeal. I can relate to sinkung into that couch. Who would not want to plant roots there? Lovely.
It's interesting how you can tell they are finding a lot of things interesting or surprising that we just find normal in the UK -like the bread, cakes, flowers, gardens, buildings, and other things that the camera is lingering on - and I don't know what...we are supposed to be looking at! Shows how you take the things you see every day for granted. It's interesting to see the UK through the perspective of visitors.
That close up of Jack! What a handsome child he is!!!!
Wow!! Awesome experience!!
We stayed there 2 years ago and loved it.
Lovely trip video. Hope you enjoyed trying on the fantasy English lifestyle. It was very brave to include the cream tea sequence as the jam or cream on the scone first debate can become quite fierce. You favoured the Cornish over the Devonian method, I note. Look forward to more of your engaging reports
And then there's the "scone" v "scon" controversy...

I hope you enjoyed your visit to God's own county. Thank you for showing my beautiful home county in all its natural beauty with the Yorkshire flag flying proud ❤️
Scandalous to see you put jam on top of that cream! 😱 The proper Yorkshire way to eat a scone is a lather of butter, then a smear of jam and finally a large dollop of clotted cream.
Lovely video guys! - Hello from North London
Thanks for sharing!! I really enjoyed this!!!
Nice visit, lovely country⚘
That looks amazing. I want to move there too!
So beautiful! My dream vacation! There’s something so beautiful about every detail from the flowers to the food. So much time & patience seems to go into all those details whereas here in the states often times those details are rushed & look sloppy.
The white rose.
Yorkshire gods own county.
Beautiful quaint villages,wind swept moors/, dales, /beaches/
National parks. Ect.
Natural beauty, friendly people.
👍💖💕💟💟💞💝💓💗👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I'm scottish but live in Suffolk, England as my husband is English! I've only one thing to say, jam on the second first then the cream, then you don't waste the rest of the jam! Lol
What an adorable place. Putting jam on top of the cream on a scone?
Richmond is a few miles away at the foot of Swaledale. Well worth a visit!
Oh my gosh I was grinning ear to ear watching this! I thought you were having tea at Downton Abbey there for a minute💕😊. Have you seen anyone selling soap?
Looks lovely. Beautiful town and history.
Excellent video! Would love to visit there one day!
Fun fact: Masham is the home town of Robin Ellacott, one of the two main characters in the Cormoran Strike by Robert Galbraith a pseudonym of.... J K Rowling
My dream country. I may not have a chance to go there but I will never stop loving you.
Great video love it there want to go back.
One thing comes over really clearly in your videos and that is - what a good family you are. You are super polite and respectful and obviously enjoy discovering the world. Jack is growing up a well-rounded fine young gentleman. It was great to see your vlogs about visiting the UK and, particularly my part of England, Yorkshire. By the way, just in case someone hasn't mentioned it - Masham is pronounced mas-ham (not Mash-am) because it is made up of two words mas and ham. Ham is the Saxon word for a village; so "Mas" "Ham" is the village of Mas. US/GB.
Lovely area. Did you visit nearby Ripon? 25 years ago I spent 4 years there at teacher training college, so I know that whole area really well
Lovely 😊 our stomping area. Although you can’t live on a Dime in Masham. If you bought your allergy tablets from Home Bargains same thing and amount for 69pence. You should have bought the Fish and Chips from the White Horse in Thirsk or Northallerton. If you buy your Brymore Ice Cream from the Co op at the bottom of the bank and left it’s cheaper. You could have used our two berth Caravan and awning at Gretna Scotland from there you just nip up and catch the Car Ferry to Ireland 🇮🇪. Have fun and be blessed. You could have had High Tea ☕️ and a meal 🥘 a lot cheaper at Walworth Castle , Swindon Castle is expensive. Was that Fountains Abbey Grounds you were at? You all look to be having fun !
Another great video. The town is adorable
Lovely video.
Great job!
Hope you’re having a great time! I follow a doctor here on UA-cam and she has bad allergies as well and she always suggest to take Zyrtec or the off brand is what she gets. She says Claritin is more of a placebo. If you notice it’s not helping maybe try some Zyrtec. Hope your allergies calm down :)
Don't spend today worrying why yesterday was bad. Spend it planning on how to make tomorrow better.
Masham, small town with 2 breweries, can’t be bad.
Masham may have been the best small town that you visited but I would suggest that there are other even better natural beauty spots in our small island in Devon, Cornwall, The Peak District, The Lake District and especially The Cotswolds. British people reading this will probably disagree or favour their own town but for tourists these four areas will fulfill your expectations. My personal favourites are Bibury, Lower Slaughter and Bourton On The Water in the Cotswolds and as most visitors fly into London, The Cotswolds are much closer than the other areas.
I get tired of reading: I think this or that place is best or most beautiful. etc etc. Like beauty, It's in the eye of the beholder!
Yes but the Cotswolds , very pretty are just chocolate box villages. Every county, shire or whatever in whole of UK are blessed with beautiful places and countryside. So much variety in such a small island.
calories in that cream tea, oh my god but so good, glad to see you have it devon way the proper way not cornish way
Scones with jam on top of the clotted cream, okay to do that in Devon or elsewhere but don't try it in Cornwall, you'll upset the natives, there it's cream on top of the jam. :-).
The thing I love most about Masham is the fact that there are two breweries nearly opposite each other. Both run by the Theakton cousins. Theakstons and Black Sheep. Lovely part of the world but I am biased being a Yorkshireman.
I live in UK and never been to Yorkshire ,tho my parents have. It's a lovely place.
Some parts are, some not lovely. North & East Yorkshire yes, South and West not so much.
U should come to Leeds where there is a very old railway founded in 1758 known as the Middleton railway running passenger services on a Saturday and Sunday
Wonderful 💕
I think the fact It is Mas-ham is that ham is a common English place name suffix (related to Home) but meaning farmstead in Old English. By juxtapose it found its attached to a Mas- name; the s and the h never were nor should be considered together. It happens in other English place names with the -ham suffix. Also to note that the sh spelling for the 'shhh' sound was introduced by Norman-French scribes to English. In Old English it was always 'sc' for the 'shhh' sound. So this problem wouldn't arise if we still used the original English spelling!
Cost of housing in Masham: $275,000 - 575,000 GBP = $334,000 - $698,000 US: England has many fascinating
towns and villages.
Try York and Durham if your in the north. Also Edinburgh, if you want to visit the wildlings north of the wall 🤣🏴🏴
Love your videos ,you must visit Cheshire
I am unable to find the candy store website link you said was listed? Great video! :)
It's in the description below the video
I really learned a few things from the candy store lady.
welcome to my beautiful country
I love this town.I am so happy to be able to see all of this with you. Thanks, Donna W.
I miss living in England so much but it is not all quaint and village life anymore, miss the food most of all, Canada doesn't know what real food tastes. I don't miss some things but I do miss high tea scones etc. ( by the way it cost a fortune if I remember rightly, my husband thought we had bought the cafe lol.)
Scone prices are interesting for something that's so easy to make! Maybe we're paying for being in a pleasant place for a while. As long as the service is good!
You picked the best county.
Devonshire..?
next stop ripley for ice cream and a walk a round the castle and park and on a clear day you can menwith hill from the car park
Swinton Castle is fantastic
How are the prices at the tea shop? And how delicious were they? Everything looks so good.
That was one was a very fancy one but most reasonable.
Just to clarify, it's a popular misconception that a cathedral bestows city status. In fact, there's no legal or official definition of what makes a city in the UK. Towns can and do apply to become cities just for reasons of tourism or to attract business, but there are no real criteria, it's just an honorary title.
England has good food someday I will return.
I hope you got to try a nice pint of Black Sheep!
