  • TOTALLY SHOCKED !.. AS TO WHY NEITHER OF US HAD EVER BEEN TO THIS TOWN BEFORE , When we had previously thought about visiting the cotswolds we never expected it to be like this , pics and video's alone don't do this place justice and it definitely exceeded our expectations , We barely scratched the surface having only visited one part ( Broadway) of the whole area and for only a short stay
    In this Video PT 1 - (PT-2 Soon) , We walked to broadway tower and cafe , Met some tourists and visited the BROADWAY TRAIN STATION Literally opposite the site !, Unique , quirky and maintaining its character i found this place to be magical , Like stepping back in time to a period drama hence partly the theme for this video
    Walks in and around the area were amazing with stunning scenery and local villages and pub stops
    We stayed at the Caravan and Motorhome Club site just a 25 min walk from town , A Large and ideally located site which was well maintained and consisted of 117 Pitches

    Another brilliant vlog! The Cotswolds are beautiful, we were there a couple of years ago. Also picked up a good tip watching this, taking a blanket to sit on! With two older dogs we have to stop a few times if we go on a longer walks so this is a brilliant idea! Take care x

    Beautiful video 💕. Have been to The Cotswolds many times but not in the camper. Bourton on the Water is pretty too but very very busy. Our favourite village is Bibury - look it up next time you’re in the area.
    Sadly I haven’t done much camping this year. My husband died quite suddenly, and unexpectedly, earlier this year and now our little dog has done her cruciate ligament so it’s a long haul until she’s able to use it fully. Still I can watch your blogs and enjoy them 💕

      poor doggie too nothing worse than our dogs getting ill or injured as they can’t tell us , so distressing , we really hope things pick up for you
      We really loved the cotswolds , or what we saw of it , cant wait to get back and see the rest , we had never been before and was totally amazed by it all , stunning area
      thanks for watching the video and hope everything turns out ok

    Hi Mike. You may remember I asked about your van and I ended up buying a Merc Devon as I couldn’t find one like yours. What a pity we could have swoped notes We live in Cirencester - and use Broadway a lot as our Grandson volunteers on the Railway. I’d have bought you fish and chips and even cycle d to the Chippie in Broadway for you. Broadway is great on Boxing Day when the hunt comes through, quite a spectacle, the club site is open all year round. Anyway glad you enjoyed our part of the U.K.

    It’s been said a few times, but you should be proud of the quality of the vlogs you produce. The two of you are great at this and the format works perfectly. Being from the Midlands, we visit Broadway and the Cotswolds fairly frequently. It’s our Norfolk I suppose, but with hills. We’re at Broadway over the new year for a few nights. We visited Norfolk for the first time in September and loved it. Keep up the great vlogs!

    Thanks again for a lovely vlog.
    Thought I was on my RUclips channel with your opening scene. My other hobby.
    Love the Cotswolds, we were at Broadway few years ago. Close to build up places like Evesham. Like being in a different world.
    Think if you wanted to buy a house round there you would have to dig deep.
    Had a bit of a grin when you said Broadmoor though.😂
    Thanks again guys.

      If you come some of Father Brown episodes feature Arkells and Donnington Brewery Pubs in various Cotswold villages. You can visit and enjoy a tour of both Breweys ( Donnington being particularly picturesque) And the Donnington pubs serve really good fayre especilly the ones around Stow- on the Wold. ( I think there are 3or4 ) All within a short distance from Broadway.
