- Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2016 | The quintessence of charming England is the “West Country”: quaint Cotswold villages with their fine churches, manor homes, and gastropubs; Wells, England’s smallest cathedral town; and the New Age capital of Glastonbury, with its legends of the Holy Grail and King Arthur. We'll finish by pondering the dramatic prehistoric stone circles of Stonehenge and Avebury. #england #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope

Imagine growing up in a quaint English village with an ancient pub and church and little flower filled cottages. Spending days playing in meadows, chatting with good people by a fires hearth and surrounded by sounds of birdsong, leather on willow (cricket), reading under ancient oak trees!
High quality of life!
Hi Joe, I'm packed, what time you picking me up!?.....haha!! (thank you for making me smile)
Hmmm. But if you are just a farm labourer your children wont be able to lived there. Famously expensive part of the country. A bit sugary for my northern taste.
You'd grow up, find it boring and want the mad city life. Funny how we take things for granted

I love this country so much. I am Japanese, born and raised. First time I visited England was when I was 13. I am now 43, made my dream come true to live in England and been living here for 21 years now.
I am English and love anything Japanese,
The English ppl and Japanese ppl have a lot in common
I was at college with a lot of Japanese students, they are kind and polite we all got on very well had a great time and still in touch,

Unlike the crowded cities, these places seem to offer a unique calming environment.
England in summer just looks like fairy tale Disney land and in dark rainy days turns in Gothic Vampire land !

Wow
Cloudvick we always have summer
@@bigballssteve6797 Yes but only for a day a year!
Can see why so many of the great storytellers came from England. Has such a green, shady, dreamy quality to the land and towns.
It's the Shire from Lord of the Rings 😊
💯
Its not so dreamy when you've been in it forever. These towns that are beautiful upon a quick visit are in reality torture to live in - the loneliness and isolation is unbearable and we see so much fun stuff happening on the Internet but thats where it stays, only ever seen through a screen, nothing exciting or different happens in these villages. It's torture. Glad I'm moving to the US
@@manedwolfwithagmailaccount1478 You lived here?
Most of England doesn't look like that. The majority is very drab and dirty with small boxy houses, dog poo and litter everywhere, and lots of crime and antisocial behaviour.
I moved to England 2 and a half years ago. My English husband didn't appreciate its beauty as much until I moved over and we got married. We've been traveling around in England and Wales, and hopefully Scotland soon. I fell in love with UK and looking forward to explore more 😊

Nice place. England. How i wish i can visit England
U r right...it's true...
Countryside in India:......
You are right, the secret of happiness lies in the simplicity of things
My brother lives in a Countryside here in England. It's nice in the summer. It's peacefull all year round but more colder in the winter than the city because there's plenty open space in "countrysides"...... In a hot country it's better all year round as long as it's safe. ✌
I love how the British preserve their heritage, and also their beautiful trails and gardens. Such a charming country.
Well demand for wool went down cuz India had cotton. Then they went to India and destroyed and looted India and its precious jewels, spices and made slaves out of them. But ironically enough they brought English to India and now India is fast becoming a superpower.
@J. Jonah Jameson I think a mosque would look good there.
they preserve their heritage but killed other countries heritage and millions of people

I love how Europe has towns/cities that make you feel like you are traveling back in time. So beautiful, thank you for sharing.
Celita Guia Whittington right... I love that feeling.. I hope i can visit england in the future :)
Yes Celita, so rightly you have said. It is like getting back in old times. Nice & gracious buildings, roads & surrounding areas & infact everything - it brings the sweet smell of good old days we want back so desperately ! Beautiful & beautiful ! Hope to go there some day !
That is, I`ll have to admit, true - notwithstanding I`m English ( England having in recent years been ruined by unrelenting over-development ).
I remember visiting St. Augustine`s Monastery, Ramsgate, Kent in January 1983. I was woken up in the very early hours of the morning and invited to what I understand was Lauds ( Morning Prayer ).
Looking out of my window into the Monastery garden I observed that it was snowing heavily, and a thick blanket of snow weighed down on the evergreens. I heard the chanting of Monks without.
The most surprising thing to me was that the journey from my room to the Church was by way of a tunnel under the road between the Monastery Cells and the church, as I followed these black hooded Monks into Lauds. It was all so Medieval like. Then the beauty of the church within....
But then there is mainland Europe, which is altogether far more fascinating a place than England, I reckon.
In 1989 I was in the City of Valladolid, NE Spain, staying at what I think was called St. Catherine`s College. A Priest gave us a tour of the place, and led us into an old Library which some workmen had found. They also found some books ( as I suppose they would, it being a Library ). The Priest opened some of the books for us, which were all in printed form. But in many parts the printed words had been crossed out and in their place was the hand-written remarks and `corrections` of The Order of Preachers. Ie, the hand written `corrections` of The Spanish Inquisition.
It shoved history - alive and kicking- right into my face.
I wouldn`t want to live anywhere else but in Europe. This is where both the old world died and the new one was conceived.
me too, it would be so great to go there
Celita Guia Whittington you should see cuba you feel like you are living in the 1960s

Hello
Respect
One of introvert’s dream... is to be in this place.
I love to be here, away from worlds trouble
Many of the villages he visited look perfect and idyllic, but they don't look like that for no reason. Rick mentioned that you can only build out of that one type of sandstone, but that isn't the only rule. What I'm trying to say is the local bylaws, and living in a listed building, would probably drive you nuts. To live there you have to be part of the tourist attraction. I imagine it's hard to be overly private. One does not simply live in Lacock. Plus house prices are astronomical. There are places in the area that are almost as pretty where normal people can live, but house prices are still astronomical. So if you can't afford a £500k+ mortgage your choices are council house/flat (long waiting list unless you have kids), spend half your income renting, or go live in Trowbridge.
Woah beautiful city. I never been there. But I like England
*High five*
👌
It's no more introverted than living in central London. In fact,.in the countryside people are so nice strangers will even say hi to you when you cross paths with them. In London nobody has time for this nonsense. I am an introvert and I would rather live in a huge city than some boring countryside
On the top of my visit list after I get over this little brain cancer problem. 😄
I wish you all the best.
God bless and all the best to you

These beautiful architectures must be extremely difficult and costly to maintain. But I'm so glad that they're preserved. So we can enjoy the beautiful countryside view now.
I think England's villages are more appealing than the city
@Darth Wheazius You're not wrong man
I'm one of the biggest London nerds ever but I do not see it as a place to live really.
Yes definitely
They are. Most British cities are shitholes
@@therealdave06 Most cities are shitholes even if they look good
It looks like a place in classic story books. So beautiful, so peaceful, and so quiet. It is like a place where there is no war or natural disaster in thousands of years.
The Germans bombed England heavily during WW II.
@@richardmarkritchie8220 I know that. The German mostly bombed port cities and industrial sites.
Wish it would stay like that but unfortunately the reality is the UK is extremely high in crime and rares of antisocial behaviour which ruined many small villages too
Some of the towns remind me of Hobbiton.
@@user-we4uz9jz8b are you testing me? Try David Copperfield or Nicolas nickelby or more modern things like if only they could talk, or Enid blyton's children books, or Franches Hodgson's books. Just look up.

You don't know what you got until it's gone. Treasure it. It is unique.
English culture is so beautiful and so underappreciated
It's unappreciated because it doesn't exist. England has long left behind whatever culture it had, the people have no identity and are just existing.
@@N_ei_L
our identity and culture hasn't been destroyed yet, despite the best efforts of our dear, benevolent leaders
we're being oppressed, repressed and persecuted in our own ancestral homeland and one day there will be a backlash.
i don't know how much more it will take before the backlash finally occurs, but it is coming.
English people are of a stoic and reserved character, so it's not in us to be brash and constantly force our culture and identity down everyone's throat - but English culture and identity is there and is very much alive in the hearts and minds of English people.
when you subject a specific group of people to oppression and intentionally try to destroy their culture and identity, it's only a matter of time until they begin fighting back.
it's not over yet. we will win in the end. our ancestors resisted the Normans for decades, despite all the torture and executions. we're still the same as we ever were. we haven't changed. if need be, we can resist just as our ancestors did.
*"Now in the primitive state of the kingdom after the Conquest those who were left of the Anglo-Saxon subjects secretly laid ambushes for the suspected and hated race of the Normans, and, here and there, when opportunity offered, killed them secretly in the woods and in remote places: as vengeance for whom when the kings and their ministers had for some years, with exquisite kinds of tortures, raged against the Anglo-Saxons; and they, nevertheless, had not, in consequence of these measures, altogether desisted"*

Can't imagine why it gets hate. I'm from the US and visited London for a few days. The people were so lovely and friendly. Anytime my friend and I looked around with a puzzled expression or looked at a map someone offered to help us. We never even had to ask. Lovely land, lovely people. As friendly as fellow Texans (Texas comes from tejas meaning friendly) any day. And the charm factor is like a fairy tale.
I'm an Indian. Every piece of history that we learn is closely connected to England and being one of her colonies, it's we who should have been angry on the English for looting our resources. But the fact is we still love the British don't know why. I studied English literature for my UG and PG, sometimes I think I'm better versed in English history or the history of Britain than any other.. It's seriously a dream to visit the English countryside
U get that hatred because your ancestors were the worst colonizers of world, similar to Hitler of Germany. So you poor people have to bear that curse life long.
Many years ago(the early 80's) I got to lay down on the sacrifice stone in the middle of the circle of Stonehenge while a guide took my photo. There was no museum. Just one small guide shack back then. I pitched my tent just across the road between the two burial mounds.
I miss England so very much. This brings tears to my eyes.
Some of the best times of my life were roaming through Europe with my bicycle and backpack. I did that for nearly 25 years from the early 70's through the late 80's. After being in a bad car wreck,I am now in a power chair,so I cant do that anymore.

It's definitely pretty and so much history that it's not surprising you'll go to a coffee shop only to find out that once upon a time a king danced on the table there or something
The weather isn't as bad as its made out to be, that gets worse the further north you go.
Down in the south the weather is much warmer.
I'd say the biggest downside (or upside if you like closeness) is how everything is very compact here. Our houses are fairly small and you can never truly be more then an hour away from civilisation.

Greetings from India 🇮🇳
As a British person, a Londoner, time and again, even my jaw drops at the beauty of the countryside and coast of my country. I have stayed in a very old cottage in the Cotswolds and it was beautiful. Any moment you half expected a Tudor Gent or a Regency dandy to appear around a corner. You might listen for the swish of a lady's cloak while a fire crackles in the parlour. If you dream of visiting then please do it, you will not be disapointed!!

Goes to show how young America truly is. We don't have structures let alone entire communities as old as England or Europe as a whole for that matter. It's truly breath taking.
Jay Fermin ; the same for us in Australia. But we are even younger than the USA, with very little to remind us of Old @World. I t could be a blessing for us, but weak, incompetent leaders have destroyed any hope of that. We are an additional state to the American state. Before the second part of WW, we were a little Britain, but jumped ship after the war to US, as we all grovelled for parts of the spoil.
But, might’ve.
There are Native american structures which can be found in the south west.
@There is no Left or Right if you lived here and you could see what a rat hole this place is you would not be so proud of it. You would be more proud of Nigeria or the starvation you caused in India then you would be of the United States

Hello english neighbours. I will come visit soon (after Corona). Cheers from Denmark.
Please do !
You'll be MORE than welcome here.........................................
And I will come visit Denmark soon
You might have ancestral family here!
Welcome home.
Please don’t conquer England again
@@amd88 Haha, I most definitely will 😉
I wake up every morning thanking God that I was born an Englishman.
It’s all there in Blake’s poetry, ‘England’s green and pleasant land’. The English countryside in the summer is an absolute dream.
The good thing about England is that even if you’re a city dweller like myself, you’re never more than a 10 minute drive from the countryside.
I wouldn’t swap who I am or where I’m from for anything.
Lol
boo colonizer
👍
He Walked On these Ancient shores AMEN.
You'd better hope after centuries of destroying lands and societies of other people across the world. Centuries of violence and depleting the resources of other nations has come to this. All that bloodshed so you pale people can drink your beer and sleep in your lodges without worry. Rubbish.
England is so beautiful and the narration is so beautifully done.
I just wanna live there :)
I am African American, but, my Great Grandfather is completely Irish. I am a U S Army Retired (1982 - 2005) Iraq War Veteran. I've been to Germany on a vacation by myself. Had a wonderful time. Would love to travel to the UK. My DNA heritage includes: British, Irish, French & German. How ironic! This is my 1st time viewing Mr Rick's video and I am absolutely in awe! I subscribed and will continue to travel along these beautiful countries until I decide to travel in person again. Wonderfully done video. The elder gentleman at the beer mill sounds like my grandfather! 😌. Peace & Blessings Mr Rick 💯
Please come ASAP. I you love (and respect) England - England will love YOU !
If only 'certain' other people would realise that simple fact..................(rather than change everything to suit THEM).
God bless you Danielle, Iraq eh, - you may have fought alongside our lads over there, Americans are well respected over here, and you will be made welcome, after all you are our cousins from over the pond!!
Free from debt, free from anything, Lay on grass and see the sky with a morning coffee.

I miss England so much.the most beautiful country
Honestly i never knew England had beautiful sceneries like these and beautiful village life. Was just scrolling through for anything watchable then i found this, led to the other and eventually had to look up this channel, subscribed and now traveling with him online. I love your work so much. You are amazing. Keep it up. Still going through your videos, am the newest bulb in the room man.
I’m the newest now and I love it!😅
Theres loads of villages like these in England..
I toured multiples small cities, it was the best days of my life, God Bless England!
AMEN.
Nothing like taking a long hike through the countryside only to stumble into a cozy village pub for a cider.
@@dicksdiggers
Even if you don't stumble in
you will certainly stumble out.

Cotswold. The locals probably rightly call this region the heart of England.
Nice City
So proud of the beautiful landscapes of west of England🏴
my husband is from England... he hasnt been back since 2000, but since I am American and have never met his family, we have planned a trip in March of this year... I cant wait!

The scenery reminds me of all the stories about old & medieval English.
Immaculate!
Best regard from Indonesia.
