- The tiny village of Daylesford, a somewhat hidden gem, is another classic Cotswolds place to visit - not only for the fantastic Daylesford Farm Shop, owned by the Bamford's, nestled nearby...

The sight of Cotswolds stone just makes me realize, again, how much I miss The Cotswolds....sigh.
Thank You 👏💖👏
You're very welcome. It's blowing a gale at the moment and not as lovely as usual. Nevertheless we are lucky to live here. All the best, Robin
Ahhh lovely as usual. Thank you
Rightly said... 👍🇬🇧❤
@@rajeshbargotra4743 Thanks to you both. Robin
Robin, I most vehemently love the way you are sharing the British Cotswolds and close surrounding areas with us! It is truly a treat and more appreciated than you may be aware! I am an American. My ancestors came, from what I can gather, from the area of Lechlade on Thames... My Father’s father’s side of the family were apparently experts in herding sheep with dogs, and some were doctors and veterinarians. My father’s mothers side in mill work nearby, where the River Leach and Thames merge... My mother’s side on her father’s line came from Scotland, near St. Andrews. His name was Bell. On her mother’s side, she noted they were from Yorkshire. We do not know if it was around York itself, or from the giant area making up Yorkshire... My Aunt did find a relative in Newcastle, apparently, however, they both have since passed away... Our family surnames are: Leach, Walton, Howerton, and Bell. The remainder of our family name, Labor, came from the Choctaw Nation, an American Indian Tribe now residing in Oklahoma.
It's great to hear from you and thanks for your kind words. Lechlade is a lovely town; we visited briefly last year, in between lock-downs. I am full of admiration that you have such a strong grasp of your family history. It seems to me it's important for us all, as far as possible to know where we come from and if you have as interesting a background as you obviously have then why not? Thanks for watching and please keep in touch. Robin.
Wish this was longer. Thanks.
Thanks for your kind words. Little and often has something to be said for it. Keep watching. All the best Robin
Charming atmosphere! A pleasure to watch all these beautiful places! ❤️
Your voice is so soothing.
Thanks for your kind words. I'm not sure Widget agrees! Keep watching. Robin.
We love the history and architecture but we also love Widget! :)
Widget sends his best wishes. He's all upset because it's Artweeks in Oxfordshire and there are dozens of strangers in the studio where my wife works. He doesn't enjoy that. Keep watching. All the best, Robn
Wonderful to travel with you as always and hear the fascinating history of the Cotswolds, many thanks 🙏
You're very welcome. Please keep watching. All the best Robin.
Can't wait to hear more about Daylesford - have never been there but now I'm intrigued.
Such wonderful videos Robin. I used to live in Aston Magna.
Morning Martin. I seem to remember a quite well preserved moated mound at Aston Magna. You certainly lived in a remote spot. Thanks for watching. All the best Robin
BRILLIANT WALK THROUGH THE VILLAGE AND HISTORY ROBIN 👌 INDEED 👌 TAKE CARE FOLK
Many thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. Keep watching! All the best Robin
Just moved from Northumberland to the northern edge of the Cotswolds (Ettington) to be nearer my daughter. Thanks for these films: great helping me discover my new surroundings.
Lovely gem👏
Thanks Jill. Do keep watching.
I really enjoyed our tour today, I too wish it was a bit longer,I love your presentations.
So glad you enjoyed it. We will be putting up the next full compilation episode soon.
I love the Cotswolds . Dream retirement home would be in any of those villages
Now there's truth for you. Since I retired I've had more fun than ever before and I am sure the area I live in has a lot to do with that. All the best Robin.
Lovely, look forward to the revisit. I follow a couple of influencers who live close enough to shop regularly, I enjoy those visits immensely.
We'll keep you posted. Robin
Made my day.
How kind you are. Many thanks for watching. Blowing a gale and pouring with rain today, so everything is looking very English. Let's hope for a break in the weather later in the week. Cheers.
Four of my ggggrand uncles lived on the estate They were Warren Hastings pall bearers. I have visited the Farm shop several times
Thank you for whetting our appetites Robin......can’t wait for you to take us back to explore the farm shop. I’m sure Widget is dreaming of it already!
You could well be right. He watched the steady stream of very aristocratic dogs going in and out of Daylesford and I have a feeling he was developing a certain inferiority complex. Thanks for watching, Robin
excellent
What I intended to say Robin, was, thank you! 😁
Good god those drivers at 2:20 nearly had head on collisions
Nah…plenty of room
Such a lovely place, sadly the farm shop brings up a lot of Londoners who always seems Huffy & Puffy and always in a hurry. But if you manage to evade them, it’s a very special place.
It's a perennial problem I am afraid. Never mind. They are quite amusing to watch.
I had the incomparable privilege of living in Daylesford for a few years in my late teens, as a result of my parents being employed on the estate. Then they opened that horrendous shop and the place spiralled into pretentious farce.
