I wish other RUclipsrs had your restraint with music. The balance is just right. We can hear ambient sound and enjoy your pleasant voice. I always watch your videos twice just for the sheer pleasure they give me.
Plus 1 on that!!! I want to hear the natural sounds of the countryside not some bonehead's idea of Muzak! If anybody thinks that the sounds of the birds would be better if drowned out with Mozart or Megadeath they can put their headphones on and please themselves. Adding rubbish that the more sane among us cannot remove is just brainless. 😱🙄
Thank you for the comment, It think this is something we have learned as we have made new videos over the years. If you go back to our earlier ones the music is louder and I guess its something you just get better at. Still much to learn but glad you can hear it, where possible we are finding a better balance. 😊
I wish somebody would tell the tv producers that. I struggle to hear the speaking on tv programs as the music is so loud and I don’t have any hearing issues. I’ve written to various tv stations/programs to no avail. Surely my husband and I and my mother are not the only one having this issue.
I wonder if people who live in England know how blessed they are!!! Beautiful beautiful. Makes my heart ache knowing I will never get to be there. All I can say is I don’t know how my ancestors could leave. Thank you for sharing. Hugs and blessings.
I've always suspected my ancestors were hauled out of debtor's prison and put on a ship to the colonies. The family has mended its ways since its arrival in North America and become almost decent citizens.
Yes, we love it and never tire of it. Particularly beautiful in the warmer months, but even winter has its attractions. Even if you live here you'd need 4 lifetimes (and no work to do!) to discover it all.
Hi Simon and Will! What an adorable, quaint, interesting historic place! You both have just filled my day with blissful beauty, peace, tranquility, and a wonderful feeling of total relaxation by allowing me to come along with you on this exciting excursion! Wow! Thank you so much for doing that! I really appreciate and so very much enjoy all of your videos! They are always so very special in so many ways, and so fantastically and wonderfully done! Til the next time..... You both continue being safe out there!
What a lovely video 😊❤ I just felt I was walking with u both & enjoying every bit of the land, the birds singing, the beach, the amazing houses & adorable landscapes, church, perfect visuals, soothing background music etc everything is so bewitching.. thank u for another wonderful video as always, your blog is a gift for England lovers like me especially beautiful English villages 😍
No me cansa ver tanta belleza de paisajes , pueblos , iglesias , todo tan bien cuidado. Es un agrado ver que está traducido al español . Gracias Saludos desde Chile .
Thank you for another delightful video, peaceful, tranquil and beautiful. I just have one request, when showing the enticing looking food, tell us please what it is so we can mentally savor it too.
Well that took me back. I visited Porlock 10 years ago but I didnt do that lovely walk. It is on my bucket list for next time now. Watching from NZ and wishing I was in England 😊 love your videos.
I love seeing your videos, indeed! You allow me to visit beautiful places I never could imagine! Congratulations one more time!!! Thank you!!!🙏🙏👍👍👏👏🙋🏻♀️🇧🇷🇬🇧
This makes me feel like I'm back in magical England (particularly as I've been to several places mentioned here). Need to catch up on your videos, a visual treat for those of us far away and who miss it.
Don't think it was mentioned in the video, but the main reason why people might know Porlock is that it featured in a story relating to one of the greatest works of English literature. In 1797 the poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge was living near the village. To quote Wiki: 'The person from Porlock was an unwelcome visitor to Samuel Taylor Coleridge during his composition of the poem Kubla Khan. Coleridge claimed to have perceived the entire course of the poem in a dream (possibly an opium-induced haze), but was interrupted by this visitor from Porlock while in the process of writing it. Kubla Khan, only 54 lines long, was never completed. Thus "person from Porlock", "man from Porlock", or just "Porlock" are literary allusions to unwanted intruders who disrupt inspired creativity.'
Samuel Taylor Coleridge went to all these West Somerset/ North Devon villages looking for inspiration. He also famously wrote “ The ancient mariner” after a boozy lunch in Watchet pub called “ The Bell”. The statue of a half naked ragged man entangled with an albatross stands on watchet harbour.
Thank You for this little gem. When I was a Lit major at CUNY@ Queens College [University for all you Europeans] I really wished my professors included this info before we began reading Coleridge's poetry. "Kubla Khan" was always included on the Syllabus. I never "got it". I never understood why this poem was so important. Now I know thanks to @BillyBudd5854!!! Cheers from NYC!!! THe lesson learned: NOTHING stays a secret forever!!!
Hi Memory seekers, thank you for this tour, every place you took us was like we were right with you, the quaint villages, the beautiful park, the stunning sea views. Looking forward to the next visdeo.
Lovely area! The seaside views are terrific, along with the narrow drives, and the crashing creeks. I adore that toll house! Something odd happened when my Mother-in-law adopted a small horse to keep her bay gelding company...it turns out he's an Exmoor pony! Apparently some have been bred in the U.S., and this one ended up in Southern CA. He grew a lovely shaggy coat during our unusually cold, wet winter. :)
Oh my, the yellow convertible is so elegant. The house by the double arched bridge is a perfection of a fanciful Engish village setting. I woud need a tweed cape, a walking stick and sensible shoes for a stroll.
In Porlock we filming late afternoon and the shops has just closed for the day so the village clears out. For Bossington and Allerford it was an early sunday morning but I think they are pretty sleepy anyway.
Absolutely delightful and interesting video!!! Another part of England that I never knew about! Allerford was a sweet little village, and reminded me of a nicer version of Midsomer Murders, but without the murder bit! I enjoyed this video so much. Spectacular views on the Exmoor coast 👏 🙌 😮
Danke für wieder ein super schönes Video🙏ich bin immer noch ganz gefangen von diesen vielen Eindrücken von der einmalig schönen Landschaft, den bezaubern kleinen Dörfern mit den romantischen Cottages , kleine Flüsse und Natur pur , man hört nur die Vögel singen und das Wasser plätschern, kaum ein Mensch ( Ich habe keinen gesehen🤔)ihre Videos strahlen soviel Ruhe aus, keine störende Musik, einfach fantastisch 🤗Vielen dank 🙋♀️🇩🇪
Vielen Dank für den lieben Kommentar. Oft versuchen wir, am frühen Morgen oder am späten Nachmittag zu filmen, wenn weniger Leute da sind. Sie wollen nicht unbedingt im Video sein und es kann auch schwierig sein, die Gebäude usw. zu sehen. Die kleinen Dörfer Bossington und Allerford sind meiner Meinung nach immer so. Sehr ruhig und gelassen.
Can't resist watching all the details on your videos. Love the cameos of the sumptuous dinner plate of food with a pint ..highlight of the day for you guys after those long walks. You'll never really know what joy it brings to see these villages and towns with their flowers and nicely set lanes and cobbled walkways. Great work!
To be honest most of us who live here like it underrated,summers are a nightmare when holidays are in full flow…..narrow roads are a problem for the many many people who find it impossible to reverse a vehicle….😂😂😂
That's true of many areas sadly. Even back in the 70s we had problems with some roads in West Pembrokeshire because people drove too fast and oh dear getting them to back into the purpose built pull-ins could be a nightmare. I can think of one little road that we breathed a sigh of relief if we didn't encounter tourists. Nature of the beast I'm afraid.
@@maureentaphouse5206 Tourists can be a problem on the narrow dirt bush roads in our area also. But I find that driving a large 4-wheel drive tractor fitted with front forks tends to raise their respect level. 😜😁
WOW!! Yet another gorgeous place to see and you show how the private road that only asks for L2 to enter AND leads you to a highway that brings you to another beautiful place. That is pretty ingenious. OK I have 3 years to retirement and get it together to figure out how I'll make this whirlwind tour happen. Aside from moving there for 2 months on tourist visa Ill need to bring my artist materials.
I have said it many times before . I have to say that these little towns and village's never cease to amaze . It is obvious that this amount of quaintness evolves over several hundred years
CORRECT. IF A VILLAGE RELIES ON MINING OR FISHING, ETC, AND THEY LOSE THEIR INCOME, THEY MOVE AWAY, AND THE VILLAGE DIES. SO SOMEHOW, THEY MANAGED TO SURVIVE RIGHT UP TILL THE ADVENT OF TOURISM, FOR WHICH, THOUSANDS OF QUAINT VILLAGES AND TOWNS NOW RELY.
This is absolutely stunning indeed. I really really love your England's video, Simon and Will, so please keep it coming. Whenever you went aboard, I just wish it would end soon and back to England's series again and its little village... So, thank you to share it with us. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I can't wait for the next episode. 💕
Absolutely gorgeous! I would spend a fortune in that first place, with the yarn and the antiques. Love the white washed house just before 5 minutes in, but there are so many cute houses I would love to see! Already looking forward to next week's program. Thank you so much.
If you lads are ever in Scotland, try venturing above the tourist traps of Edinburgh or Glasgow to an area called the Black Isle, it's above Inverness. Once you're there visit the town of Cromarty, its period architecture takes you back to a bygone age, it could almost be a filmset, whilst there another pretty town is Tain, you could always round off your trip by going to Portmarnock, not only is it at the top end of the great glen fault it's also famous because its harbour faces West.
Hey Simon and Will. Exmoor National Park and surrounding area is beautiful. Worth going for that coastline alone. That’s the great thing about travelling England. No matter where you are, there’s so much to discover. It is, however, advantageous for people to watch your videos, as sometimes you can get caught on the main roads and miss out on these hidden treasures. It definitely helps people plan. Glad to see you’re getting sponsors. It says alot about your quality work and hopefully it helps you reach a wider audience. Stay well. ❤
Thank you for the lovely comment Jill. We were so pleased to be invited to showcase the area as it was not one we had in our plans to visit. So glad we did, a real surprise and just stunning. Had no idea it was so good. Will be back for sure our few days were not enough.
Thank you for this introduction to two of the prettiest villages I have ever seen. They rival anything the Cotswolds have to offer. As always, I enjoy your knowledgeable narration of the history of these buildings and villages. I did wonder about flooding though!
From 1982 to 2010, I used to spend about a month a year in this wonderful area. Now living in America, I really miss the stunning beauty and challenging walks. If you go there again, the Church , St Beuno's at Culbone is interesting. You come across it on the SW Coast Path.
Dearest Simon! It took me 50 years dreaming before I got to England. If I never get there again, you take me anytime I want to go. Thank you so much for your lovely videos!
This video was aptly named, these villages were adorable and the scenery was stunning. Thanks for so skillfully showing them to us, I look forward to the next video.
Absolutely marvelous! I love these delightful small villages you showcase, and as always, your tips, narration, and photography are lovely. And... Yarn!! 😍 Thank you SO much for showing the yarn! You really made my day. ❤
Thanks for sharing such beautiful place! Is the route up the hill a one way road and can a Tesla model s fit through without getting scrapes? 😂😅 happy traveling!
Hi, yes you will be able to get up without an issue if you are careful, it will be wide enough. It is not one way and there are passing points but I don't think it gets used that much. 😊
I'm in the Midwest near St. Louis. Thoroughly enjoy your vlogs. Seriously consider these for travel someday. I don't know what your meal was and just wonder. What was the baked cheese dish? Was the oval fried thing a sausage roll? Thanks!
@@suebecker2893 Hi Sue great to hear from you. We did put the names next to the meals in text but I think it was too small. A couple of people have commented. The cheese dish was actually Lasagna and the other was Chicken Kiev. Both delicious! Hope you do make it over someday! Thanks for watching.
Something else underrated. We all have eternal life. The question is where will you spend it. Jesus died on the cross for you. He who hears my word (JESUS) and believes in Him (GOD) who sent me will have eternal life! He will not be condemned, he has crossed over from dead to life. John 5:24
Thank you for this beautiful video. I have spent numerous holidays in Porlock in our motorhome. There is a lovely, basic campsite right in the centre if the village where you can see the most stunning sunsets. I have a very good friend who's lucky enough to live there and we usually go down for Wierfest which is a music and beer festival on the first weekend in July.
We hope you enjoyed our first visit to Exmoor National Park, such wonderful scenery and villages!

This is truly "Escape to the Country" but with better music and narration. 😊

Exceptional video. The whole area is stunning, even on a grey day. Thank you for the wonderful tour.
Thank you so much,
Stunning. Absolutely gorgeous. England really is a beautiful country ❤
We agree!
Very picturesque ~ thank you.✨
Weird that there's almost no person in sight...
In Porlock we filming late afternoon and the shops has just closed for the day so the village clears out. For Bossington and Allerford it was an early sunday morning but I think they are pretty sleepy anyway.
Absolutely beautiful area guys. Why would one want to live anywhere else on this planet. Thank for all your efforts in producing these videos.
Thanks for watching as always!

I LOVE these videos about the little villages & underrated places we seldom or never hear about. As always, thank you! Love y'all☺

Thank you for this introduction to two of the prettiest villages I have ever seen. They rival anything the Cotswolds have to offer. As always, I enjoy your knowledgeable narration of the history of these buildings and villages. I did wonder about flooding though!
Porlock Weir gets flooded quite often due to bad weather. I understand most places have done away with carpets so they can clean up more easily.
From 1982 to 2010, I used to spend about a month a year in this wonderful area. Now living in America, I really miss the stunning beauty and challenging walks. If you go there again, the Church , St Beuno's at Culbone is interesting. You come across it on the SW Coast Path.
Glad we stirred the memories. Thank you for the tip I have pinned the church for next time!
If you watch the video for Mike & The Mechanics 'Living Years', it was filmed at St Beuno's and around Porlock and Countisbury Hills.
What a delightful video. This sponsorship is introducing us to some wonderful scenery.I look forward to the next one.
They did us, we had never been to this area and wow it was amazing! More to come!

Wonderful, I so enjoyed this visit, as usual, and echo the sentiments of @seattlebeard below. Thank you once again,
Our pleasure!
Thanks for sharing such beautiful place! Is the route up the hill a one way road and can a Tesla model s fit through without getting scrapes? 😂😅 happy traveling!
Hi, yes you will be able to get up without an issue if you are careful, it will be wide enough. It is not one way and there are passing points but I don't think it gets used that much. 😊
So professional. Thank you for sharing these lovely places.
Glad you like them!
That Coast Guard stationcould be medieval.
It does a bit!
I'm in the Midwest near St. Louis. Thoroughly enjoy your vlogs. Seriously consider these for travel someday. I don't know what your meal was and just wonder. What was the baked cheese dish? Was the oval fried thing a sausage roll? Thanks!
@@suebecker2893 Hi Sue great to hear from you. We did put the names next to the meals in text but I think it was too small. A couple of people have commented. The cheese dish was actually Lasagna and the other was Chicken Kiev. Both delicious! Hope you do make it over someday! Thanks for watching.
"Spectacular" indeed!
Just found your site and subbed. Great references for when me and the Mrs are away
Welcome aboard!
Quite beautiful !
😊
Nice presentation
Thank you!
Something else underrated. We all have eternal life. The question is where will you spend it. Jesus died on the cross for you. He who hears my word (JESUS) and believes in Him (GOD) who sent me will have eternal life! He will not be condemned, he has crossed over from dead to life. John 5:24
Another fantastic film of beautiful villages!
Thank you also for the indispensable comment, compliments.
Me gustafia conocer hampshire a traves de su video❤

@@MemorySeekers bien,gracias
Thank you for this beautiful video. I have spent numerous holidays in Porlock in our motorhome. There is a lovely, basic campsite right in the centre if the village where you can see the most stunning sunsets. I have a very good friend who's lucky enough to live there and we usually go down for Wierfest which is a music and beer festival on the first weekend in July.
you may do the work showing the people and culture of the concerned villages
Totally agree
In the 70's my dad could never get his Worsley up Porlick Hill
What a Fantastic Video Everything You Look At Is So Beautiful Thanks a Lot From Blue
Loved it 💌
