As a native of Derbyshire I'm very fortunate to frequently visit Bakewell and Chatsworth. My wife and I like to sit outside the Rutland Hotel and people watch, then it's off to the Riverside fish and chip shop for cod and pea mix then sit and eat them by the river. Bloody marvellous
This is the England we Aussies read and dream about. Being in lockdown ,which seems forever ,your glimpses into history and the gorgeous houses are a welcome gift. Thank you.
Was a lovely place to visit not long after we came out of our last lockdown. I think that made it all the more special. We were blessed with great weather too! Thanks for watching.
As a yankee, it would be wonderful to see a map of the British counties at the beginning of each video. I’m familiar with some, but not all! Lovely work, guys-always enjoy these explorations!
Bake well is a beautiful town but the surrounding countryside is even more so. Absolutely fabulous, get your walking boots on go to Youlgrave village and walk Bradford Dale wonderful countryside England at its best.
we lived in England Horsham for 3 years and visit England every year since. We have fallen in love with the beauty, and the lovely people and of course - cup or tea! Hoping to get back this year
Coming from Nottingham myself, I love going to the Peak District especially around Matlock, Bakewell, Buxton, Castleton, Glossop and Lathkill Dale. I have travelled to so many exotic places around the world but you cannot knock the tranquillity and serenity of the beautiful Peak District. I am so lucky that it isn't too far from Nottingham and I do spend a day in the summer there nearly every year
As a local it's interesting to see Bakewell from the perspective of an outsider, and what the tourists all seem to be looking at (and as someone who's grown up here I've never understood).
I have fallen in love with English villages. I watch many British shows, and they are always filmed in the most charming old villages. Thank you so much for sharing these places with us & giving us historical facts as well. I am so happy I have found your RUclips channel. God bless you & safe travels.
I feel incredibly lucky living on the outskirts of Sheffield as I can just get in the car and drive there in about 25 minutes. I love sitting and watching the ducks and geese on the the river. It is really relaxing. I love Bakewell.
What a great channel I stumbled on. An American who loves England, visited a few times. Every time I land at Heathrow they make me feel at home. Great filming and narration. Looking forward to seeing many more videos. Thank you!
Yank here: I remember my visit to an English countryside towne called Avebury, nearer to Stonehenge. 'Twas so loverly, seeing the lambs along the green pasture and The Sound of Silence all 'round. Hope to see The Lake District someday. Cheers from chilly NYC (Wednesday, 1 December 2021).
Such beautiful little town, so romantic which has known how to preserve its own natural spaces. All is beauty. It makes me dream of a future travel in England country. As a foreigner I know only London and there is so much to see around. A big hello from France
I could see myself vacationing there. It seems all the little villages in England are charming & idyllic. Thank you again for another Saturday morning adventure for me here in Sherwood, Arkansas.
The Peak District is a wonderful place to vacation for sure. Much to see, we just had a weekend there and next time chatworth house just 3 miles away will show you a bit more from that weekend. Easily spend a week in that area.
The West Country (Cornwall, Somerset, Devon, Dorset) has some beautiful villages, as of course does the Cotswolds (a large area bordering the West Country and encompassing more than one county, where they filmed Downton Abbey and parts of Spielberg’s War Horse, and which is beyond idyllic), as well as The Lake District, Yorkshire Dales etc etc. Yes, England is literally littered with picture-postcard villages. It’s the one thing that makes it hard to leave, because after a while you just miss them. And it’s the setting as well, with our distinctive rolling green hills and little churches. Don’t get me wrong - places like France and Germany have some stunning ancient villages, but there’s something very unique, nostalgic and magical about ours. But obviously I’m biased 😂 😂
@@penname5766 Thank you for the info. I'm planning on vacationing in England 2023. I want to spend a day in the Cotswolds. I was in England 2015 but only left London 1 day to visit Canterbury, Leeds castle & the white cliffs of Dover. Such a beautiful country. I'm biased too since I'm an anglophile! 😁
@@penname5766 I sometimes think rural France can be a bit scruffy. Some of the houses a bit neglected. If you go to the Lake District, Dales, or Cotswolds the places are immaculately kept.
I suggest you put a visit to Derbyshire very high on your bucket list. I live in London but my close friends live in a place called Ashover, quite near to Bakewell. A truly beautiful part of the world and the people are so so friendly, different to the London lot'! And the hill walking in Derbyshire is second to none with fantastic industrial history. Be aware though, Derbyshire does get extremely busy and if you go to Coton in the Elms, this is the place in the UK that's the furthest point from the coast. Interesting fact of the day!!! Kind of.......
In the eighties I used to drive through Bakewell, touring Derbyshire and South Yorkshire on our visits (from Belgium) to relatives in Sheffield. What a shame we never really stopped there !!! Thanks a lot that after these years, I finally "know" Bakewell ! It seems like heaven.
Absolutely stunning! So perfect and peaceful. Oh how I miss England. Such a beautiful part of the country.. Have not had a bakewell tart in decades..treats looked so delicious. You did a wonderful job narrating and the photography is mesmerising. Thank you as always
I got to say this is the best channel for remotely experiencing UKs countryside. Great images, concise commentary with agreeably voice and subtle fitting music. Big fan here! Keep it up!
Well if it makes you feel better it’s not exactly warm here at the moment, in fact around the same temperature. The main difference in England to Michigan is that we don’t get the very low temps. in Winter and heavy snow falls are not very common though of course we can experience them in some years.
I had a penpal MANY years ago who lived in Derby, Derbyshire. This is the first video I've discovered that really showcases just what a quaint and charming place that is. Some of the architecture reminds me of Boston. I love your channel and just subscribed. It really gives that Rick Steves vibe. Very professionally done indeed. Your videos will definitely keep me company on these cold winter days. 👍👍👍
This was delightful! With your narration I can easily imagine Jane Austen traipsing down those lanes and across the charming bridges. The river scenes are a balm for me, here in very dry Southern California. While on the bus from Heathrow (to visit relatives in Berkshire during my one and only visit so far), my husband and I kept exclaiming, "Look! Everything is SO GREEN!
We have been to Bakewell so many times over 40 odd years it’s true it’s stunning little village locals very friendly as are most who visit . The views travelling for us from leek over Buxton to the Derbyshire dales is for me my piece of heaven . 👏👏👏👏👍🏻
Have just stumbled across your videos! Since we can’t get to Britain again, these days, they will keep memories alive of my heritage. Thank you, from DownUnder.
Stunning tranquil peaceful and civilized. After looking at your wonderful vlogs I wonder why people would want to live in London these days .there’s just no comparison. Another informative and very well put together vlog . Thank you 🙏 best regards from Vietnam 🇻🇳
I guess it depends on the person really but there is definitely a move for people to want to move away to the countryside since the pandemic and have more space. With the work from home option becoming more widely available I suspect this will increase. I just hope people make it a permanent home and not a second home that kills communities.
Not everyone wants the quietness of the countryside or the lack of diversity in some towns and villages. London has lots to do and people can get high paying jobs. I live in Birmingham and live it but I do visit the countryside for short breaks but get bored after a few days but the scenery and tranquility is a welcome break for me. Everyone has their own idea of what suits them and I like the hustle and bustle of being in a city as well as knowing I can see and interact with people from all backgrounds.
As a Derbyshire lad, it makes me happy to see more exposure to our great county. The Peak District is definitely taken for granted! Shame you didn’t show some of Chatsworth, that house is truly something to behold in summer or winter. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve enjoyed a run in the snow round there’
Hello will.ive taken awhile to decide where to move to. Ive heard its beautiful.derbyshire and the peak district.im moving there in sept.cant wait. To go for long walks through the countryside.i know i will enjoy it.
Ganz lieben Dank für diese phantastische Reise in diesen zauberhaften Ort und die wunderschöne Umgebung. Hier kann man wirklich Kraft tanken und die Seele kommt ( wenigstens eine Zeit lang ) zur Ruhe . Die malerischen Häuser , satte grüne Wiesen, kleine Flüsse, man kann gar nicht alles aufzählen, wichtige und interessante Informationen, danke für eure tolle Arbeit🙏🥰🙋♀️🇩🇪
Being a native of Derbyshire. I have spent many a happy day with family and friends in Bakewell, surrounding areas of Chatsworth Park, Chatsworth House, villages of Baslow Bubnell, Beeley, Pilsley and Endsor where the Dukes and Duchesses of Devonshire the Cavendish family are buried. Elizabeth Talbot the Countess of Shrewsbury. Bess of Hardwick hadconnections with Chatsworth house
I was there in 2005 with friends,we were the first mexicans to visit the town and everyone was surprised to see and were very hospitable. If you take the path south you get to Haddon Hall.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful video of the beautiful English countryside! It would be charming to live where your peaceful waters meander through and around picture-perfect gardens and homes and fields, far from the world of high-tech and chaos here in Los Angeles, CA USA.
Lived here my entire life, im very fortunate, honestly one of the most beautiful places youll ever see, you cna walk in any direction and its beautiful
I haven’t been to Bakewell for years, I miss going so much, I used to go nearly every weekend unless I was in Skegness. Thank you so much for your wonderful video, it brought back so many wonderful memories, it was almost like being back there for real.
Lovely part of the English countryside. Watching the video makes me yearn to take a trip and explore the area. Thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Thank you for sharing.
Ohh..wow..poor dear me..for my heart drives madly in love with England & its beautiful places, never once i visited but seems so familiar to my soul through ur amazing videos & thank u.. ur videos r so natural & loving that i love watching, the narrator sounds so perfect as the one behind screen of old Hollywood movies👍👍 such a bewitching place..loved it
Спасибо за прогулку ! Впервые увидела таких крупных овец, как 👍 в начале ролика. Какие милые и сказочные домики, опоясанные рекой. Спасибо автор, что взгляд Вашей камеры останавливается на к клумбах с красивыми цветами. Жду новых встреч с вами. Успехов Вашему каналу!
My second time there been twice and just did a tour of 5 days of bakewell. Love the people the scenery customer service people are out of this world and beautiful peaceful place
Thank you for these video tours. I live in America, and although I have visited the UK several times, I stayed primarily in London and the Cotswolds. So very nice to take these virtual tours of the English countryside. So relaxing, calming, and educational.
It amazes me Simon to hear you say "Here is the old house built around the the time of Henry the 8th" Wow 👏 I can't say that living here in Pennsylvania lol ~ so ty once again for sharing cozy cottages, beautiful gardens & views from Bakewell Derbysire!👍❣🤗
I love how mystifying this kind of history can be to Americans. Took an American friend around the city walls of York and he was "wow, this is pre-dickensian?" yes, by 500 years!
Hi Steve ~ I have always been fascinated by the English people and their historical gardens, meadows & castles. All very romantic!! 💕 I got as far as Ireland🍀 but I thank Simon & Will 🙏 for taking us to the English & Scottish estates & quaint villages with a good historical narrative. Thanks again! 🙋♀️💫👍
Like many other tourist towns in most of the world: neatly, even beautifully kept but with no real life in them except for the tourist trade. For all the prettiness of it, there's something a little artificial and sad about it.
I can tell you with absolute certainty that is not the case, just like anywhere in the world people have problems with drugs, drink, relationships, money etc. England is not full of happy and wealthy people, it is just as broken as Russia.
I'm a Derbyshire boy (though like everyone in my town I pretend I'm from Yorkshire) my home town is about 20 minutes from Bakewell. It's a beautiful part of the country. Its great (and also to a bit odd) for a video about Bakewell have so many views and comments from all around the world. Glad you all like it!
Hello jd.im moving there from canada in sept.i did some soul searching and decided this is a beautiful place to settle.this video walking tour made it easy for me to move
i slept at rutland arms hotel which has an annex building nearby. I really like bakewell and the river with the trouts and of course the tasty bakewell Pudding ( real Heart attack stuff). also worth seeing is nearby Chatsworth house.
Known elsewhere in Britain, if only by the famous Cake. This was indeed ,a wonderful introduction for me. Despite the surprising age of many Homes and other Buildings, I was surprised how beautifully kept they all were, appearing to be much more recent. A lovely town, and set in beautiful surroundings. What a difference a meandering river makes, with it's many quaint bridges .
I’m a yankee lady. This is my “dream” vacation destination, and Chatsworth House too! I’d rather go here than anywhere else-if I had to choose one place!
Great. Since I was a child, I have been watching the beautiful scenes of your country through long-running TV series. Through books and newspapers, I have always wished to come here once in my life. but that wish is too far away, won't come true in this life, thanks for the great video
Very nostalgic. My favourite place in a world. Peak District is worth visiting any time. Another great video, thank you so much, guys. Looking forward to watching Chatsworth house. It is a cherry on a cake.
I am really going to miss bakewell and matlock I go home tomorrow morning but I will be back in the summer loved it every min of being in bakewell thanks to all locals made me feel so welcome and so friendly. Will miss you all incredible place
I loved every min of being there I cried when I had to go it's my perfect place for a day or hoilday you cant beat the uk for holidays and only few hours by road to no fussing about just a beautiful scenic route going there
Sir, you have the smoothest voice. I feel so at peace listening to your voice. I have watched and listen your videos of Memory Seekers the past 15 hours. I will continue all day and night while I attend to my various assignments. Thank you very much 🙏
Thank you, a wonderfully filmed, and informative video. Bakewell is one of my very favourite towns in the UK. Being born in Buxton but raised in Dunedin NZ, I have had a few trips back to my extended family, one of whom is lucky enough to live in Granby Croft, just off the market place. Many lovely memories.
Vivo in Toscana, ma la campagna inglese esercita, da sempre, un grande fascino su di me (e moltissimi italiani). Gli antichi borghi sono meravigliosi e ben curati, viene voglia di venire subito in GB❤️. Sto guardando L'ispettore Barnaby in tv, per vedere la campagna inglese. 🙋🏻♀️
I love bakewell probably my most favourite place to go! Absolutely beautiful town! Great video help me feel better! Nothing but happy memories for me there! You took me back thanks
I love Bakewell, I normally take my mum there once or twice a year. We have the obligatory Bakewell pudding, but normally go on a little further to the next village, Ashford in the water and have lunch at the Ashford arms. It's another picture postcard village which is stunning on a summers day.
@@karencourt5684 oh, you really do flatter me! I don't think there's a pedestal built small enough yet for me to take a stand lol, but thank you for your kind words, and you have yourself a wonderful day too!
@@Mark_Bickerton hi mark.il build you a pedestal.i do woodworking lol. That is rwally lovely you spend time with your mum.im moving to england next month.so i hope to see all these great places. You really do have a kind heart.have a lovely day🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🌟✨😀👍
i am now following your countryside tours. bringing back memories in some of the countrysides that I've visited many years ago. dont think I'll be travelling any time soon. but its real lovely in this armchair travel with you. thank you very much. I'll back tracking to watch some earlier tours. in fact I'll make a point to watch all! THANKS, STAY SAFE GUYS!
You obviously have a direct line to the weather gods, all your videos have the most beautiful weather! Hmmm…. The pudding does look to be an acquired taste, if you‘re used to those iced treats we all know. I bet it’s a kind of snobbery- who likes the „real“ one, you know?! The River Wye is so beautiful. Such clear water. The very first shot reminded me of the River Brenz, over here. I hope very much I shall see you here, in the future, when the world has found it’s feet again.
Then I'm a snob! But the pudding is light years better than the tart! Perhaps I'm biased, because I was born there! Pleased to see it still looks charming. I haven't visited since the 70s. Time to take another look. Fine vid. Thank you!
@lauren It really is not always that good on the weather but this weekend was from memory one of the hottest we had in the summer so lucky we booked the trip that weekend in July.
It always amazes me when I see things built hundreds of years ago that are still standing! That was another incredibly filmed tour, you give so many thoughtful details that make it feel so special!
I’m lucky enough to live close to the Derbyshire Peak District and visit Bakewell often, a wonderful place. Very close to Bakewell is Chatsworth House probably England’s most beautiful stately home
As a native of Derbyshire I'm very fortunate to frequently visit Bakewell and Chatsworth. My wife and I like to sit outside the Rutland Hotel and people watch, then it's off to the Riverside fish and chip shop for cod and pea mix then sit and eat them by the river. Bloody marvellous
Sounds wonderful!
There’s a good market on Mondays too, selling an eclectic mix of tools, food, & clothes. A real Farmer’s Market.
My first husband proposed to me in Bakewell, whilst we were eating fish and chips sat by the river, feeding the ducks.
Greetings from Oz Lovely place I don’t about the cod and pee mix though
Idyllic!!!!
This is the England we Aussies read and dream about.
Being in lockdown ,which seems forever ,your glimpses
into history and the gorgeous houses are a welcome gift.
Thank you.
Was a lovely place to visit not long after we came out of our last lockdown. I think that made it all the more special. We were blessed with great weather too! Thanks for watching.

Mary,I go to Bakewell frequently, it's truly a beautiful place
Have you ever visited the U.K. Mary?
i was about to ask the same thing! would love to see a little pin in the map to let us know where we're going :)
Bake well is a beautiful town but the surrounding countryside is even more so. Absolutely fabulous, get your walking boots on go to Youlgrave village and walk Bradford Dale wonderful countryside England at its best.
Lath kill Dale is just over the hill at over Haddon a beautiful dale
I was raised in Bakewell, and still have family living there - it really is a beautiful part of the world. Love going back there when I can
we lived in England Horsham for 3 years and visit England every year since. We have fallen in love with the beauty, and the lovely people and of course - cup or tea! Hoping to get back this year
We know Horsham quite well. Have friends living there.hope you make it back soon.

What a great channel I stumbled on. An American who loves England, visited a few times. Every time I land at Heathrow they make me feel at home. Great filming and narration. Looking forward to seeing many more videos. Thank you!
Thanks for the lovely comment hope you enjoy our videos, lots to come!

Спасибо за прогулку ! Впервые увидела таких крупных овец, как 👍 в начале ролика. Какие милые и сказочные домики, опоясанные рекой. Спасибо автор, что взгляд Вашей камеры останавливается на к клумбах с красивыми цветами. Жду новых встреч с вами. Успехов Вашему каналу!
I love this village. This is one really is worth visiting. And it's not far from Chatsworth.
Yes we have another video on Chatsworth.
My second time there been twice and just did a tour of 5 days of bakewell. Love the people the scenery customer service people are out of this world and beautiful peaceful place
It's another beautiful movie. Many thanks !
Welcome!
Che belli questi piccoli paesi della campagna inglese , grazie per farceli conoscere 😘
Thank you for these video tours. I live in America, and although I have visited the UK several times, I stayed primarily in London and the Cotswolds. So very nice to take these virtual tours of the English countryside. So relaxing, calming, and educational.
Maybe next time come and visit further afield. 😊
Indeed a beautiful town, my daughter got married last Feb 12, 2022 in Bakewell..we stayed there for 5 days and we really enjoyed the place😍
It amazes me Simon to hear you say "Here is the old house built around the the time of Henry the 8th" Wow 👏 I can't say that living here in Pennsylvania lol ~ so ty once again for sharing cozy cottages, beautiful gardens & views from Bakewell Derbysire!👍❣🤗
We are lucky to still have these old of places and the history that is for sure!
I love how mystifying this kind of history can be to Americans. Took an American friend around the city walls of York and he was "wow, this is pre-dickensian?" yes, by 500 years!
Hi Steve ~ I have always been fascinated by the English people and their historical gardens, meadows & castles. All very romantic!! 💕 I got as far as Ireland🍀 but I thank Simon & Will 🙏 for taking us to the English & Scottish estates & quaint villages with a good historical narrative. Thanks again! 🙋♀️💫👍
И жизнь у людей, наверняка, такая же разменянная и красивая, как реки и природа Англии. А какие красивые ,добротные и ухоженные городочки 👍👍😍
Like many other tourist towns in most of the world: neatly, even beautifully kept but with no real life in them except for the tourist trade. For all the prettiness of it, there's something a little artificial and sad about it.
I can tell you with absolute certainty that is not the case, just like anywhere in the world people have problems with drugs, drink, relationships, money etc. England is not full of happy and wealthy people, it is just as broken as Russia.

Beautiful place.Lived there 10 years,my son still goes to school there. Fantastic video..💯👍💯
I'm a Derbyshire boy (though like everyone in my town I pretend I'm from Yorkshire) my home town is about 20 minutes from Bakewell. It's a beautiful part of the country. Its great (and also to a bit odd) for a video about Bakewell have so many views and comments from all around the world. Glad you all like it!
It’s quite a popular video with our subscribers from around the world. Glad you enjoyed our take on this lovely part of the U.K.
Hello jd.im moving there from canada in sept.i did some soul searching and decided this is a beautiful place to settle.this video walking tour made it easy for me to move
i slept at rutland arms hotel which has an annex building nearby. I really like bakewell and the river with the trouts and of course the tasty bakewell Pudding ( real Heart attack stuff). also worth seeing is nearby Chatsworth house.
Thanks for sharing, we visited Chatsworth in our next video. Quite a place!
Known elsewhere in Britain, if only by the famous Cake. This was indeed ,a wonderful introduction for me. Despite the surprising age of many Homes and other Buildings, I was surprised how beautifully kept they all were, appearing to be much more recent. A lovely town, and set in beautiful surroundings. What a difference a meandering river makes, with it's many quaint bridges .
There is so much there and the river does add that extra wow. Very popular and busy place to visit, but so worth it.
Such a beautiful village with amazing views!
Yes indeed a beautiful district and Town.
😊👍
Beautiful 😻❤️🏴🇬🇧
Love the 😍 old fashioned sweet shop there! Near the main road bridge. 😉👍
very very nice countryside ! So old yet so beautiful !
Thanks for watching
I’m a yankee lady. This is my “dream” vacation destination, and Chatsworth House too!
I’d rather go here than anywhere else-if I had to choose one place!
Well I hope you make that dream come true one day and visit.
Each of these places reminds me of Enid Blyton stories. Please never spoil these dreamlike places.😍😍😍😍
Я представила что гуляю вместе с вами в этом историческом и прекрасном месте спасибо за ваш труд привет из Баку
Great. Since I was a child, I have been watching the beautiful scenes of your country through long-running TV series. Through books and newspapers, I have always wished to come here once in my life. but that wish is too far away, won't come true in this life, thanks for the great video
Why not? It is possible. You should start planning to visit!
A shame you will not make it here but glad we can show you in some way virtually. All the best.
@@penname5766 Thank you, I'm from a far away country, Vietnam. and our country is very poor so it's hard to travel to europe
Thank YOU
Welcome!
Very nostalgic. My favourite place in a world. Peak District is worth visiting any time. Another great video, thank you so much, guys. Looking forward to watching Chatsworth house. It is a cherry on a cake.
We have just take a small slice of the beautiful Peak District. Definitely need to head back for sure! Thanks for watching and enjoying 😊
What a dream would be living there
What a classy video. Such Beautifully presented/edited footage, of stunning buildings and scenery. Well done you.
Thank you so much for the lovely comment. 😊
I am really going to miss bakewell and matlock I go home tomorrow morning but I will be back in the summer loved it every min of being in bakewell thanks to all locals made me feel so welcome and so friendly. Will miss you all incredible place
Nice to hear you had a good time!
I loved every min of being there I cried when I had to go it's my perfect place for a day or hoilday you cant beat the uk for holidays and only few hours by road to no fussing about just a beautiful scenic route going there
Sir, you have the smoothest voice. I feel so at peace listening to your voice. I have watched and listen your videos of Memory Seekers the past 15 hours. I will continue all day and night while I attend to my various assignments. Thank you very much 🙏
Thank you for watching 😊👍
Thank you, a wonderfully filmed, and informative video. Bakewell is one of my very favourite towns in the UK. Being born in Buxton but raised in Dunedin NZ, I have had a few trips back to my extended family, one of whom is lucky enough to live in Granby Croft, just off the market place. Many lovely memories.
Thank you for sharing Sue, we hope to visit Buxton the next time are up that part of the country.
Fantastisch! Alles schön sauber und grün!
Thank you. Another fabulous tour. Such a beautiful place.
Thank you
من اروع فيديوهاتك التي قدمتها لنا جمال خلاب وساحر نشكرك جزيل الشكر
Vivo in Toscana, ma la campagna inglese esercita, da sempre, un grande fascino su di me (e moltissimi italiani). Gli antichi borghi sono meravigliosi e ben curati, viene voglia di venire subito in GB❤️.
Sto guardando L'ispettore Barnaby in tv, per vedere la campagna inglese. 🙋🏻♀️
I love bakewell probably my most favourite place to go! Absolutely beautiful town! Great video help me feel better! Nothing but happy memories for me there! You took me back thanks
So pleased you liked it and agree it’s a wonderful place to visit.
what a gorgeous place Bakewell is. i hope one day ill get to fly to England to visit it
We hope you do make it happen! 😊
Wow that is gorgeous. Look at the red bus go over the bridge.
It is a very lovely town.
Lovely video, l agree with you the Bakewell tart is the way to go looking forward to seeing Chatsworth House 🐨🦘🐨🦘😷
The house is amazing not long to wait!
I love Bakewell, I normally take my mum there once or twice a year. We have the obligatory Bakewell pudding, but normally go on a little further to the next village, Ashford in the water and have lunch at the Ashford arms. It's another picture postcard village which is stunning on a summers day.
Thank you for the recommendation!
Hello mark.i think its lovely that you take your mum there.what a kind heart you have.have a wonderful day
@@karencourt5684 oh, you really do flatter me! I don't think there's a pedestal built small enough yet for me to take a stand lol, but thank you for your kind words, and you have yourself a wonderful day too!
@@Mark_Bickerton hi mark.il build you a pedestal.i do woodworking lol. That is rwally lovely you spend time with your mum.im moving to england next month.so i hope to see all these great places. You really do have a kind heart.have a lovely day🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🌟✨😀👍
Sooo beautiful !!! 🥰😍 thank you for your hard work.
Thanks for watching!
i am now following your countryside tours. bringing back memories in some of the countrysides that I've visited many years ago. dont think I'll be travelling any time soon. but its real lovely in this armchair travel with you.
thank you very much. I'll back tracking to watch some earlier tours. in fact I'll make a point to watch all! THANKS, STAY SAFE GUYS!
Well aboard and thank you for following our travels. Lots to catch up on! All the best.
Again, you have given your subscribers a beautiful video. I really enjoyed it. Thank you Memory Seekers,
Our pleasure 😊
Ravissant Bakewell ! Paisible, verdoyant et fleuri.
Merci pour cette vidéo de grande qualité.
Merci d'avoir regardé, content que cela vous ait plu.
@@MemorySeekers
Thank you.
You obviously have a direct line to the weather gods, all your videos have the most beautiful weather! Hmmm…. The pudding does look to be an acquired taste, if you‘re used to those iced treats we all know. I bet it’s a kind of snobbery- who likes the „real“ one, you know?! The River Wye is so beautiful. Such clear water. The very first shot reminded me of the River Brenz, over here. I hope very much I shall see you here, in the future, when the world has found it’s feet again.
Then I'm a snob! But the pudding is light years better than the tart! Perhaps I'm biased, because I was born there! Pleased to see it still looks charming. I haven't visited since the 70s. Time to take another look. Fine vid. Thank you!
@@58andyr lol, well don’t worry, I‘m very snobby about my insider knowledge of special things, too!
We prefer the tart I am afraid 😱 but least we tried the pudding and would eat it again.
@lauren It really is not always that good on the weather but this weekend was from memory one of the hottest we had in the summer so lucky we booked the trip that weekend in July.
It always amazes me when I see things built hundreds of years ago that are still standing! That was another incredibly filmed tour, you give so many thoughtful details that make it feel so special!
Thank you for the lovely comment so pleased you liked it.
😍😍 oh, Austen was absolutely right!!! A perfect place to visit. One more for my list. Now I just have to wait this pandemic goes over.😪🙏🙏🙏
Hope u get to visit soon
@@MemorySeekers 🙏🙏🙏🙏♥️
I’m lucky enough to live close to the Derbyshire Peak District and visit Bakewell often, a wonderful place. Very close to Bakewell is Chatsworth House probably England’s most beautiful stately home
Yes this was our video for this week, a tour around the house and gardens.
