Cotswolds, England: Village Charm - Rick Steves’ Europe Travel Guide - Travel Bite
More info about travel to the Cotswolds: www.ricksteves.com/europe/eng... As with many fairy-tale regions in Europe, the present-day beauty of England's Cotswolds was the result of an economic disaster - in this case, the collapse of the wool industry. The fine Cotswold towns fell into a time warp, creating a rustic charm that is the basis of today's new prosperity from tourism.

What a dream. And to be so young and planning to live in these kind of places and countrysides are dreamy.
Yes I have big dream I love this place
I can do without the row homes. I need single family, detached dwelling. ...but the place looks cute
@@171TITO well, all you need is MONEY, lots of it.
England has the most beautiful villages...traditional... Quirky historical , thousands of years old.. Simply the best..💞💛💟💓💝👏💕💚👍👍👍👍
When god made heaven he did a practise run in England
England is my favorite place I love this
Madam sab countries achi hai - kabhi India mein Himachal Pradesh ka Dalhousie dekhna - - kabhi Mysore aur Coorg dekhna - sab acha lagega
@@understandphysics9828 am not saying ki koi place bura hai, sorry agar bura lag ho to, I know India is also very beautiful
kritika Sajjanlal - ya no need to say sorry sister - just be proud if India and its diversity . Jai hind
@@understandphysics9828 jai hind bhai 🇮🇳🇮🇳❤️
@@Jyotiporeddy hi Vicky. How do you make that? Love to here your explanation. We could say that so many from the sub continent are helping to ruin
I wish i could meet a man who needs a companion or partner who wants to go on walks cruise the canals and do some local travel sight seeing and hiking. I wouldnt care age or ability just someone who likes good conversation and would like the companionship. I love england so much. Ill be there with or without a companion. Maybe a travel van for a while to suit me.
If i was in uk then yes
I would like to live and retire someday in England, want to live in Cambridge or Windsor.
I'm ready but I'm not from the uk
Why doesn't god has given this kind of cleanliness to our Indian villages,
If that's really you in the picture...........I'm your man.
We have a similar town built by a British company here in São Paulo, countryside, Brazil. It’s called Paranápiacaba and the air of the city remembers the British environment.
English countryside is soo beautiful and like dream land. I wish I could live there
take a look at Ray Woods Vids of the Cotswolds too.
A truly beautiful cultural landscape with many traditional architectural styles. In such places lives and breathes the English character. Greetings from Germany / Prussia
I m luckiest one 2 days before I was there 😊I hv no words to describe England is my favorite specifically Cotswolds n Cornwall
When people think of England or London the imagine this but I'll tell you I got such a shock going to London. A Town Like This is where I want to go
Hello
As the Hymn goes "on England's green and pleasant land". I feel fortunate to be English and within driving distance of scores of our lovely villages; even the drives to them.
า
It’s a wonderful place. You should visit it and see the real Jolly Olde England at its best. Beautiful memories there.
Hi How are you sweet friend 🌷🌷❤❤
Hello beautiful lady how are you doing today?.....
The video gives a true ,almost vivid picture of a traditional English village .And the description in given in such beautiful , clear voice , with our familiar pronunciation that, it enhances the grandour and beauty of this classic English village .
I have visited here and totally see myself living here. It's so beautiful!
GOD bless 🇬🇧 England 🙏 thank you Steve.
WOOW incredible village, my dream to live there for the rest of my life!
Me too.. but it's a dream for me.. the villages of all Europe like paradise earth. No noise no competitive people ride bicycle and flowers birds swans in river .. God meant such a life for mankind forever but one creature interrupted yet it is definite to settle and almost many actions God took to accomplish HIS purpose for earth and for mankind.
One day if i finished my education I will move to a little village and give up technologies For the rest of my life
exactly same desire. just wanna make my parents happy first.
Wow.
I second that !
Whay not
Why tho. You get to discover this amazing place in the video because of technology
I love England😍🥰😘😘
I used to meet my boyfriend (now my husband of 43 years) under the arches of Dunster yarn market (you can still see where a cannon ball went through during the Civil War). I doubt we were the first, or last, couple to meet there.
Dunster in Somerset? ---that's a cute Circular Yarn Market , that dominates the ''high St''. in a Very cute village, with a working Water Mill, and overlooked by Dunster Castle. It has it all.
@@MrDaiseymay yes, that's the one. I still get my flour from the water mill.
Nakul Sapru as I missed the boat by 6 years, hardly, but thanks for the compliment.
@@babrubadmash no-one cares. Get over it.
So cute ❤️
Cotswolds are really fantastic!! Wishes from Italy😘😍❤💖💕
When I visit England I like to visit these kind of places, they offer you the real England. I remember my two week stay in the Scottish Highlands. People were friendly, scenes were beautiful and food was delicious... especially Haggis! Will visit England mext.
Golly I miss traveling, can’t wait to get back to Europe.
So many beautiful places on this Earth that I would not discover if it wasn't for Rick Steves. Thank you!
Very beautiful Like a picture in the imagination Like a fairy tale, peaceful, pure nature Full of green trees, flowing water, beautiful flowers, fresh blue sky. Country life Full of beautiful houses, no extravagance, crazy objects in the natural way. Thank you for the beautiful video. That helps build dreams and encourages us.
First of all, sir, you are as charming as the cotswool countryside. Secondly, i loved the video so so much that i downloaded it, saved it, shared it with my near and dear ones instantly. I LOVE ENGLAND💜I LOVE COTSWOOL💕. I WISH I COULD BE THERE WITH MY DAUGHTER!!! 🙏🙏 from INDIA.
you are so energetic at this age 😀and traveling places with enthusiasm 🙂 I admire you
That’s really neat. It’s just another place I’ll have to try to see when I manage to visit the UK
Nothing - and I mean, really, absolutely nothing - is more extraordinary in Britain than the beauty of the countryside. Nowhere in the world is there a landscape that has been more intensively utilised - more mined, farmed, quarried, covered with cities and clanging factories, threaded with motorways and railway lines - and yet remains so comprehensively and reliably lovely over most of its extent. It is the happiest accident in history..........US born author Bill Bryson
I love England.
England is the very manifestation of all that is magical and fairy like! The land is just too gorgeous to be true!😍
Sheeps! 😄🐑 The knitter in me is thrilled.
I am from Bangladesh, a boy yet to make a career. I am so much interested in the simplistic towns of the west. I wish I would someday walk around random towns, enjoy a cup of tea at a local bakery, and wonder about all the people in the past and their glorious life.
😤
What a nice place!
Love to listen in on your travels. I can trust to learn something new every time! Thank you

Beautiful country
Love this place, agriculture is awesome.
Me too ❤
Old is gold.
True
I used to live here as a child but left when I turn 18 as I was more of a city girl. I have to be honest tho, a lot has changed in this little town . I'm coming back to visit next week and I am excited
"Lower Slaughter" and "Chipping Campden" are two of the most English names I've ever heard...
I loved Chipping Campden!
@@christineseton7687 Upper Slaughter, ( which means Boggy ground in Saxon) Chipping Norton, Chipping Sodbury, Stowe on the Wold, Bourton on the Water.
I live in the area and the place names always make me smile: the rivers Windrush, the Evenlode and Sherborne Brook; the hamlet of Cockadilly, the ancient neolithic burial site of 'Hetty Pegler's Tump'. The old pub near the head of the Thames named 'Trouble House'. Further south towards Somerset, the village of Temple Cloud. I do love living here.
I love the Cotswolds, what an amazing area I went late 2015. I want to move there from Australia.
Lacey Ann Hello
