DOWNTON ABBEY FILMING LOCATION TOUR IN THE COTSWOLDS: Beautiful places & villages in England
DOWNTON ABBEY FILMING LOCATION TOUR IN THE COTSWOLDS: Beautiful places & villages in England// Hello, Today is quite a special video we think. Joerg and I went on a Downton Abbey filming location tour in the Cotswolds. Although the series is meant to be set in Yorkshire, most part of it was actually filmed in the beautiful and picturesque Cotswolds.
First of all, we went to Shilton, a very small and gorgeous Cotswold village which was used as The Red Lion pub where Bates worked as a barman. We then visited Bampton which was 'Downton' in the series where you would find Mrs Crawley's house, the church, the cottage hospital, the post office and the pubs. It's such a beautiful place and really worth visiting. We have always LOVED Mrs Crawley's house and it didn't disappoint.
Last but not least we went to Cogges Farm where many farm scenes were filmed for Downton Abbey. You would also find Mr Drew's Yew Tree Farm here where he lived with his family and Lady Edith's daughter Marigold. Later on Mr Mason, Daisy's father-in-law went to run the farm. It's a heavenly place and you can see the inside of the gorgeous manor house where they filmed the kitchen scenes. We fell in love with the kitchen and the whole farm. You really have to put it on your must visit places list. It was a very special day and we hope you will enjoy the video. Kirsten & Joerg x

I used to stay in Bampton village all through the sixties with my aunt and uncle in the holidays. I remember all the little shops in the high street.....it really had a butchers, greengrocer, fishmongers, toy shop that sold clothes, a small grocery store. We'd walk to a river to swim ....climb trees in the orchard...take the dog for walks. My aunt and uncle were married in that church. Recently I watched all the Downton Abbey episodes ...I didn't want it to end! Bampton means happy childhood memories for me.
Such wonderful memories, thanks so much for sharing Miriam!
Beautiful place I m enjoying a lot thanks
What a lovely video. Everything looks so autumnal and cozy. This is quintessential Cotswolds and I love it!!🥰
That puts such a smile on our faces, thanks so much Elizabeth!
@@KirstenJoerg 🥰🥰🥰
England is such a beautiful country. You are so fortunate to live there. I enjoyed seeing the Downton locations. Bampton was picture perfect. I'm glad you had the 20% sunshine, and not 80% rain!
We were so incredibly lucky with the weather, I even got a sunburn and it was supposed to be raining.
Love this area, so beautiful 😍 and informative Thank you.
I know this isn’t ASMR but your beautiful soft calming voice and the scenery make this so relaxing. I stopped the video and am saving it to watch with my husband before bed. He enjoys these as much as I do.
Thanks so much, that's really kind!
My gosh, Kirsten, that dress of yours blended beautifully with the landscape. You look great - thank you so much for showing me something once again that I’ll never ever see in my lifetime but for you.
Simply beautiful 💞
Such a cozy video! Thank you so much
What a beautiful place😇Thank you for sharing beautiful couple🙏💙🧿
Absolutely stunning! And your voice, Kirsten, adds so much more beauty to what you are filming! This is definitely one of your most impressive videos! Thank you! 🤗
That's so kind Gabriela, thank you so much!
Kirsten & Joerg - I know you were worried about getting this video up later than normal. I must tell you that it was worth it. Your content is so well put together from the videography to the music. Well done! If I could - I would book my ticket today. For now, this arm chair travel will do. Hope you are both well. Thank you for sharing!
What wonderful places to visit! Thanks for taking us along!
👏👏🤗
Another beautiful destination, with dear people! ❤️ Thanks for taking us with you! 🤗
This may be the most beautiful collection of villages in one video you posted. Everything from breakfast to cake was such a pleasure to watch. Thank you for all the time and attention to detail you put into each episode. 👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks so much Barbara!
Thank you for sharing with us your trip in the Cotswolds. What a lovely place!
Thank you so much from Tucson, Arizona! You cannot imagine the joy you bring!
Thanks so much!
Uh oh! Now I need to find my Downton Abbey DVD series and rewatch it. Thanks for sharing this stunning part of England...you are so blessed to live there! Take care you two. 😘😘
I fell in love with Cogges Farm again watching this. I was so taken with it in Downton Abbey. Again, no words for these beautiful places. Thanks!
Bellissimo video grazie Kirsten e Jorge per portarci con voi 😘
Splendid video, Thankyou for taking us along. 🥰🇬🇧
This is so lovely it is just beyond words. So cozy and quiet. Could just imagine walking these streets many years ago with so much to offer in your own little community you would call your home. So lucky to live in this area, you both have found a piece of heaven. The serenity and the beauty of nature is better than all the God that anyone could ever own! This history is wonderful and so much different than expected when watching the show Downton Abby. Love that program so much with such rich history for us to comprehend how the lives moved on from one generation to another and yet how new ways came tumbling upon them even though they went there screaming all the way. No one at first wanted to surround it totally but all found their own ways to contend with it, and arm up to it. They meld into their own independent lives with places often not far outside of Down Abby and the confines and all the friendship it offered them for so long. Thinkhowoour own families have come down through our family line under threads like this, being woven as each went along? Thank you for taking us along on this trip and also explaining the various buildings and a little about each one. Certainly would not have figured them out totally alone.
The Cotswold Villages are so very lovely, that when you are there, it feels as if you have gone back through time. It is everyone’s idea of the quintessential English Village life. I love the stone buildings, something you don’t see in Canada 🇨🇦. Oh and the sounds of the Church bells 🔔 Glorious! No wonder Downton Abby was filmed here.. love your vlog in Shilton Village. Thank you for taking us there with you. Till the next time, Take care 🤗🇨🇦
So so happy you like it Carole! I know, we arrived in Bampton when the service ended, it was so lovely to also meet the pastor, such a wonderful lady.
Thanks for sharing the locations for dowton abbey
Beautiful scenes, beautiful music. Thank you.
You speak so eloquently Kirsten I enjoyed this video very much thank you both very much💜💜🌹
Vielen Dank ihr beiden, daß ihr uns dieses schöne Video gezeigt habt. Ich liebe ja Downton Abbey. Die Cotswolds sind für mich ja der schönste Landstrich in England. Alles ist so friedlich und beschaulich. Übrigens habe ich den Cotswolds Explorer schon seit geraumer Zeit abonniert. Seine Spaziergänge sind jedesmal faszinierend. Ich hoffe, dass die Serie in Deutschland bald wieder gezeigt wird. Allein schon wegen der tollen Schauspieler. Allen voran die sagenhafte Maggie Smith. Ich liebe sie. Eine grandiose Actress. So nun bleibt mir nur noch euch eine schöne Zeit bis zum nächsten Mal zu wünschen und freue mich schon auf das nächste Mal. Bye bye eure Annette 🤗😊🌻🍁
Vielen Dank liebe Annette! Oh ja, Robin von The Cotswold Explorer ist super. Ja, die Serie ist einfach immer sehenswert.
We’ve all enjoyed Downton Abby. What a treat to do a tour . Thank you so much!
Molto bello!!😘😘

That was a wonderful filming of a place of such a calm and enchanting character ! The stone houses ,the cemetery ,the church and the lovely garden ,they make up an unassuming country corner of perfect beauty ! And made me long for Downton Abbey ...Thank you ,friends .

Endless picturesque buildings and gardens…. How lucky you are to be able to see such lovely places, and how lucky we are that you show them to us! I want to get on the first plane to England and check them out for myself but until I can, I will see them through you! Thanks so much!

Another wonderful video ! I love all those old houses, gardens, church, this huge kitchen. Thanks a lot to share
Love your video of Downtown Abbey it's stunning thank you. Just so.love your video's. 😘
This video is one of my most favorites Kirsten and Joerg!! The music 🎶 is perfectly suited to your scenes.. we like how you are adding the printed names of your locations as well… and how you go from vistas to a close up of a rose, for example! My husband and I also loved Downton Abbey and so enjoyed “ revisiting “ it with you.. nice touch to add the photo in corner of a scene from the series!! The cottage garden at the end was so lovely.. a wonderful tour.. thank you!! 👏🏻☺️❤️❤️🌸🌻
We are so happy to hear this Marcia, thanks a million! So special to see the places in person.
Lovely and relaxing as always. I laughed out loud at Joerg's 20%. :)
You know ALL the Downton details… I’m impressed with your memory!
Kirsten and Joerg , thank you so much to take me with you on all the trips and adventures. I enjoy and always waiting for the next. Best regards.
Absolutely beautiful. We are so lucky in this country to have so many gorgeous villages.Once again you have done a brilliant job at showing us the best -Thankyou.x
Thank you Kristen and Joerg for a most pleasant tour. Love the homes and Fall gardens. Visiting the Downton Abbey sites very special. 💗👏🏼
Wow! Cheers!
Dear Kirsten and Joerg, Thank you so very much for such an informative and beautifully filmed episode. Downtown is so enthralling and enchanting. Your time and energy is always considerable. I would be lost without you. Please know we all appreciative of your time.
Very lovely place in the Cotswolds. The gardens are absolutely beautiful. Glad that you both are having a wonderful time.
Mrs. Crawley's house is so lovely, is it near the site of the war memorial with Mrs. Patmore's nephew's name, one of my favorite episodes.
A charming place to visit. You two look wonderful, happy, healthy and a joy to see. That chocolate fudge cake looked delicious. My husband and I visited England for two and a half weeks, on our own. We drove around all the Cotswold villages one day.
Gracias por el paseo 😀👍
When you both take us on your fabulous adventures......it's like I'm right there walking the lanes. The cotswolds homes are so beautiful! We are building a log home in 1700's style but I am adding a stone fence and have been inspired by your design style ❤
Hi Kirsten & Joerg great video again sweetie 😍 i love the english series and movies have a nice late evening and a good night and stay safe 😉 love and kiss from the Netherlands Chiel

Enjoyable tour! 👍😊
What a calming, beautiful couple you are! May I please ask what type of handbag you wear, Kirsten? It is so perfect on you! ❤
This was beautiful. I love the music you choose.
I would love to visit! But don’t have the funds 😔 you and joerg are so lucky to freely travel! I would love an ‘assumptions about us’ video
I clicked onto the Cotswold Explorer.Thank-you. Most enjoyable.
I loved this video & seeing these older places.
Loved the filming,so sensitively done.
After watching this video I am going to re-watch Downton Abbey!
Splendid as always! Thank you so much for sharing your lovely adventures. :)
Video is stunning and everything is so calm and beautiful. I like your dress, Kirsten. That colour is lovely on you.
Thank you both for this! 👍😎🇨🇦🌲💜🌏
Несколько раз пересматривала любимый сериал Аббатство Даунтон! Спасибо за то, что показали местные достопримечательности!
I loved this, Downton Abbey is one of my favorite shows and watch it over and over. I agree, some of those buildings I would not have recognized them at all so thank you for pointing them out. This was just wonderful!
Tolle Idee, uns auf eine „Downton Abbey Tour“ mitzunehmen! Jetzt müssen wir unbedingt die Serie nochmal gucken. Wir wären gerne live dabei gewesen😍. Schöne Grüße aus Köln von Regina und Jörg
Vielen lieben Dank! Ja, die Serie kann man immer wieder gucken.
@@KirstenJoerg Auf jeden Fall 😍

I just love all your content! Thanks Kirsten and Joerg 🌹

Just started following “The Cotswold Explore” due to Kirsten’s recommendation. Lovely day seeing the Downton locations.
I agree that The Cotswold Explorer is a great channel 👍
wunderschön
Oh Guys, I'm obsessed with your Channel. As a Big Downton Abbey Fan from the US, I want to tell you Thank you so much for making this video spotting those places that we see on the TV series. Honestly guys since I discovered your channel like more than one week ago I am stuck and obsessed with all of your videos. Great content, you are amazing, humble and charismatic people. keep up with this great work that you are doing. I love UK and the British accent, hopefully one day soon in the future I will be able to visit Great Britain for the first time and your channel is my best guide. Greetings from Connecticut, USA. P.S. When you come one day to the east coast of the States, actually called New England for a reason, you have a house here.
Awww thank yo so so much!
Thanks for your lovely videos, and thanks for the subtitles.
I love England proud to be English
Thank you for sharing your adventures. As a Downton fan, I enjoyed the tour and your enthusiasm as you found your way through the filming locations. Your joy at "20%" was lovely!
oh how i miss england
Trebor Ekcohcs Me too was raised in the UK been living in the US for 42 years

Beautiful video, thank you both.

Wonderful, absolutely stunning.
Thank you for sharing. Love the cottages and gardens. The insides were so beautiful. Love from Texas 🤠❤❤❤
So peaceful and the flowers are absolutely amazing...btw i too.. cannot resist the traditional english breakfast.. TQ...
Nice ❤️ location 💕
What a lovely video, really enjoyed seeing all the Downton locations. Hope you are both well x
Kirsten my dear, I have been watching you on my tv for, at least, the past for years - definitely since pre-covid. You transport me to "happy places." It's quite coincidental that we have such similar taste. I'm an American, family here since the 1600's. However, it's interesting how much more I relate to your appreciation of historic architecture and traditional English decor than any interior decorator I've yet consulted with in Knoxville, where I live- Knoxville, Tennessee. I adore your channel and get so much inspiration from you
Incredible excursion loved it.❤❤ big thanks.🙋♀️
Hello sweet darling couple beautiful beautiful Cotswolds.Thank you for taking us there 🙂
Helloooow,,im present here,,,,enjoying!
👌
Hey Kirsten & Jörg,this video of yours is so very welcome as I've been binge watching all 5 episodes of DA,and often wonder about the locations. Thank you ! Kind regards,Liese
🙏❤🙂
