CHIPPING CAMPDEN: English Market Town in the Cotswolds
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 май 2024
- Chipping Campden is a famous market town in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This part of Southwest England is one of my favourite places, and Chipping Campden is within the AONB in the county of Gloucestershire. It is an old market town from the 600’s….. and is a fascinating place to visit! Come along as we tour the town, the market hall, the remains of the manor house, the almshouses and the famous wool church!

You just can't emulate or copy this type of history and culture. It is magical. Nothing outside Europe comes close to the genuine article. Thank you for reminding me how proud I am of my heritage. I sometimes take it for granted..... x
My pleasure!
Well now, we can’t have Ian sad!!!!! Looking forward to this!!!!
Just joking of course 😉... but thanks!
@@MagentaOtterTravels lol
that pigeon’s like, “You think you’re gonna tell me what not to do?” 🤣
Rebellious pigeon!!
I used to go to Chipping Campden as a kid in the late 70s with my grandparents as we camped in their caravan nearby every year - theres a torch light procession every year , maybe sometime in May - well worth a look - I had'nt been there for about 40 years and went there about 3 years ago (2020) , its even better now you can really appreciate it as an adult (except for the part where i walked in to low beam inside one of the shops , i really could have done without that)
That sounds like a really interesting event to attend! Although yes, low beams are a definite risk in old buildings in the Cotswolds! Quite the hazard for tall people... 🤕
Such a great town!! Beautiful building!! The home with the dogs is so amazing!! Have to put this on the list of places we have to visit!!
It really is spectacular! I hope you get to visit ❤️🏴.
Cheers! Dara
Love that devils door!!!!!!!!
I just stood in front of it again today! It is so small and pretty!

The civilised perfection of the British countryside on show. THX
I’m glad you enjoyed the video. I am a huge fan of the British countryside! ❤️🇬🇧
Dara, I am learning so much more about the UK through Magenta Otter than I’ve learned in any other way. The detail that you show to us, I can’t think of any other program where it can be found. Thank you so very much. I love learning about the world.
Thanks so much Tom! I hope that my videos are a nice distraction while you get better SOON!
Gorgeous, very nice video👍💕💕💕 a quality channel. I'm looking forward to new videos. God bless you and your family🙏🙏. I wish you healthy days. Let's stay connected. Greetings from Turkey and love 🇹🇷🌹🌹🌹🛎👉

Making notes about the hounds by the entrance. My future house needs those!
Yes for sure! Apparently those are specific hunting hounds... a breed that has sadly become extinct.
WOW ! She she did it again .
Wow very good presentation is perfect full support my friend
Thank you! Cheers!
I used to live 20 minutes away from CC. Regularly used to go to the Bantam Tearooms and the Lygon Arms.
Pal of mine used to own the Citroën garage down Sheep Street.
Thanks for the recommendations! Great place for a garage 🐑 Thanks for your comment, JR!
Cheers! XX Dara
I remember this video!!! I would love to take off of work today and go to a dressing up box lol
I had a little dress up yesterday! Visited an old manor house that had a dressing up room in the back garden. It was so fun to put on an Edwardian costume 😉
Hello Magenta Otter Travels! Thank you for showing me a nice video! I really enjoyed it! It's a very interesting video! Thank you for sharing! Have a nice day!
Thanks for visiting
Where else in the world could you have great fun checking out doorways and a drive through cartwash. Loved the dragon door knocker.
I saw some cool doorways in Boston, but they are pretty boring here in Texas. It really is great fun looking at all the doorways around Britain! I love the themed door knockers... lovely sea-themed ones in Cornish fishing villages. And I encountered a lovely Dragon House in Wales... which hopefully I will post a video about eventually! *impatient eye roll emoji*
Cheers, Gerry! XX Dara
@@MagentaOtterTravels I hope to recommence my travels late next month; Boston is still a little way down the list but definitely on it.
Fabulous church and churchyard - just stunning.
England really does have some amazing churches! And these wool churches are my favourites. I'm hoping to see more cathedrals next summer!
We also have some impressive wool churches in East Anglia, if you ever want to compare and contrast.
Nice sharing my dear I am your new subscriber 🤗
Thanks so much!
Cotswolds looks beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
It really IS so beautiful! Thanks for watching!! Cheers! XX Dara
Oo this is such a pretty one! I loved this village. The market hall is incredible. The houses are impeccable, I bet it costs a fortune to live there!! That church is incredible - we are so excited to spend some time here later this year. We just decide where now!!! 🍻
You must see ALL the places! haha
Yes, I assume that it is very pricey to live there... except for maybe the almshouses? They are occupied by local pensioners. And what a fine place to live indeed!!! I wouldn't mind ;-)
'A Dressing Up Box for the Grown Up Lady' gets my vote!! 👍😀
THAT is definitely a place that Lucy and Julie need to visit! Y'all are great with your makeup and wardrobe creativity!
@@MagentaOtterTravels Haha, thank you! It would be such a treat!
Wow, that is a gorgeous church, I just love all the stained glass. Thanks for sharing another lovely video of my favorite place, ENGLAND! : )
Yes, that church is another lovely display of stained glass and other cool artifacts! And I do think you meant "favourite", my dear! We need to get you spelling it correctly before you cross the pond! haha
@@MagentaOtterTravels haha, so true!! I'll definitely be changing the settings on my phone and laptop to "UK" English instead of US English to help me out in the beginning lol. I have already changed the clock on my phone to 24 hour time to try to get used to that and boy oh boy, that took some getting used to. I still get confused when I look at the time half asleep!
those stained glass windows are remarkable!
Yes indeed! They aren't ancient, but definitely elaborate and gorgeous. And heavy!
Amazing
Thanks
it was nice to see all the poppy wreaths around the war memorial.
Yes, I seemed to see them everywhere... even though it was summer!
That window is GORGEOUS!!!! 2 tons?!?! We would absolutely love to meet you there one day Dara!
Oh YES! We need to eat our way through all the baked goods in the Cotswolds!!!
@@MagentaOtterTravels YESSS!
Your comment about not wearing 5 inch heels on cobblestones reminded me of the best bit of social media commentary that I saw recently. One of the journalists (Female!) reporting on the visit made by the Duchess of Cambridge to Copenhagen. Kate and Crown Princess Mary walked across a cobblestone square (little square cobbles, not the big flagstones) both were in high heels, the heels were not only high but also they were pencil thin stillettos! Much admiration was exclaimed from the female readers, 'How do they do it?" Do royal women have training sessions like an obstacle course? First test, walk across cobbles in high heels!
It’s a very good thing I’m not a royal! I couldn’t make it 😂
@@MagentaOtterTravels Me either! I'd break an ankle!
With the terrible events unfolding in Ukraine, this was very soothing. Thank you both.
Yes, we are very distressed to hear news of the what's happening in Ukraine! It feels a bit silly to keep publishing my little travel videos... but as I'm not a journalist or commentator, I'll just continue to provide a bit of escapism and a peek at the beauty of the Cotswolds to hopefully cheer us up and help us remain optimistic for better, more peaceful, days ahead! Cheers! XX Dara
@@MagentaOtterTravels More than some Americans, I know that you will appreciate the geographic closeness of these events. Your video's are always welcome, I was not making a derogatory comment, xx
What a beautiful town. The market hall looks so good bearing its age in mind. Thank you for showing us another British gem. Nettie.
Thanks so much! Cheers XX Dara
I'm not sure I've seen a cartwheel dip before. Handy!
I had NEVER seen one! Hence I had no idea what it was! haha
Beautiful 🤝🇹🇳🌿💐🌸🌷
Thanks 🌷
An excellent tour of Chipping Campden, with your usual historical research expertly woven with local knowledge into your superb narrative: throroughly compelling viewing! Loved the soundtrack, and the two cameo narrations by Ian, including appropriate biblical reference! (I'm now more sure than ever that it's not Ian's camera-shyness that keeps his pieces to camera so few and so short, but his very high appearance fees! 😜) The whole programme was a nostalgic reminder of a Cotswolds cycle tour that included a stop at Chipping Campden. Thank you.
Yes, Ian's appearances do come at a very high price! But wouldn't he make a nice vicar? hee hee
I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Whether on foot, on a bike or in a car... Chipping Campden is a great place to stop by on a tour of the Cotswolds!
@@MagentaOtterTravels Ian in a dog collar....? He certainly has the gravitas!
@@RichardWells1 that made me laugh very loudly! 😂😂
@@MagentaOtterTravels I'm told I have this effect on people 🤪
Absolutely fabulous, I don’t know why but Campden always seams to play second fiddle to other Cotswold towns and villages , especially Broadway
You did a great job showing this stunning town at its best but you could have made a 1/2 video because of its history
Campden house was burned down by the Royalists to stop Cromwell getting hold of their headquarters. As it’s so close to the church Cromwell thought the town had been sacked so did not attack it
John Fereby helped found Eton Collage and also put money into forming Campden Grammer school , I went with over a 1000 former pupils to the 550 celebration . Hicks , Fereby and Townsend have all be involved with the school and have a house each named after them that the pupils join when going there
The Campden wonder is a famous tale of a Tax collectors that went missing and then re appeared , unfortunately not soon enough to save the lives of 2 people who where hung for his murder , because of this there was a legal president that you could not be found guilty of murder without a body being found
Robert Dovers games or the Cotswold Olimpicks ( correct spelling ) the forerunner of the modern day Olympics will have its 410 anniversary this May , with its famous shin kicking plus other games , then follows a torch light procession into the Town square with a fair on the Saturday
So as you can see no ordinary Cotswold Town , I just love your vids keep them coming
Thanks so much, David! I LOVE hearing all that historical context! I had no idea the "shin kicking games" were REAL!!! wow.
I am absolutely drowning in Cotswold content.... I filmed WAY too much last summer! I'm still trying to get my way through it without making 35 minute videos that nobody would watch. I have to take a break from Cotswold vids for next Friday, but then I'll be back the following week with Burford... another beautiful place with interesting Cromwell history! ;-) Cheers! XX Dara
Stayed twice at the Lygon Arns. First time a bit basic, second time much improved but a lot more expensive!
Very close to the beautiful Sudely Castle.
Oh, that sounds nice! You know I love Sudeley!
This was a town we have visited and was in awe the whole time!!! No 👠 or pigeons allowed. Your filming style is impeccable- especially the walk up to the church door
Thanks, love! Yes, it is a dreamy place! So funny... I recorded that commentary about the heels... and then I accidentally found MAGENTA heels on Canva when I was looking for something else. Happy accident! haha
As always you create quality content. We always consider voiceovers, and may try it. Thanks 🙏
Thanks so much for your kind comments, C and D! I have a love/hate relationship with voiceovers, haha! Cheers! XX Dara
Here in Western Canada we never see this old architecture! So interesting to see. Great music selection by the way!
My dad's side of the family came from England. I have a very rare last name which I believe originates in Gloucestershire.
No way! I'm a very proud resident of Gloucestershire (part of the year, anyway). Send me an email if you want to tell me more about y our family history. My hubby Ian has deep roots in different parts of Britain also. I've only found one relative who lived in Cheltenham though ;-)
Thanks for the compliment. Occasionally I work hard enough on the music to spend hours finding a song I really like!
"A dressing up box for the grown up lady" sounds so FANCY. If Jen ever grows up, she'll finally be allowed in!
She is a young lady now... go on in! ;-)
@ Ian Great choice to quote Mark 10:25
Wouldn't Ian make a great vicar? ;-)
I stayed at rose cottage several years..and yes the owners name is rose. It was colder at that ti.e but the lounge always had a fire going and a cup of tea at the ready....
That sounds so lovely! Thanks for commenting so we all know about it.👍 Cheers! Dara ( your rhyming friend 😉)
Watching here again friend
Thanks so much!
So beautiful!
Thanks! Did you visit Chippy during your Cotswolds tour?
@@MagentaOtterTravels No. we didn’t. Our time in the Cotswolds was just a day for ourselves with no scheduled tour stuff. We had quite a tight schedule so our Cotswold day was just a nice break from the ‘be back on the coach by 3pm’ thing.
I decided to have a look on Right Move (online real estate portal) and there's a gorgeous home for sale in Chipping Campden. Only £3,250,000 too. I must put an offer in. 😉 Gorgeous video by the way. I love the history of these places.
I had to look it up. I do know where that house in is. Dara will be doing a video on Broad Campden, which probably should have been part of the Chipping Campden video but there was too much content. You can't see the gardens of this house from the road so it's interesting to see the photos and what it looks like inside.
Haha, I started looking up home prices in a few of the Cotswold towns/villages as well when I started the videos. The prices were staggering!!! Always multiple millions. Now you know why celebrities and aristocrats and the ultra wealthy are the only ones who live in these places! And why Dara and Ian have a little flat in Cheltenham instead of a sprawling home in Chipping Campden! And yes, I spent an entire year of my life on rightmove.co.uk every day when we went through the process of buying our flat! Thanks for your comment, Sue! Cheers! XX Dara
Sounds good. Boppy, you need a larger kitchen for filming your cooking videos! ;-)
LOL very ironic. That pigeon didn’t know the rules 🤣
Must have been an illiterate pigeon. Or a rebellious one! haha
@@MagentaOtterTravels 😂🤣
Wow really enjoyed your video, thanks for sharing it with us. Just found your channel a few minutes ago and I’m really enjoying it! Full support to your channel can’t wait to see more!! Like 111!!
Cheers!
Glad to see you edited out the inside of the gents wc 😬 😉
I only included the door so that the Americans would know what "Public Convenience" meant!!! LOL
Oh wow! This was incredible! Those thatched roofs were incredible, and the Church of St. James is absolutely breathtaking! Thank you so much for this wonderful tour!
Ian’s right about Oliver Cromwell.Although I’d use stronger language.Thanks you two.
Yes, he has harsher things to say off camera. Keeping my channel family friendly ;-)
I am impressed that this church is so bright inside, but with those gorgeous glass windows, it's just impossible to stay dark!!
Good point!
You may be interested to know the statues of the dogs at the doorways are Talbot hounds. The Talbot was a type of hunting hound common in England during the Middle Ages. It is depicted in art of the period as small to medium-sized, white in colour, with short legs, large powerful feet, a deep chest with a slender waist, long drooping ears, and a very long curled tail.
Unfotunately the breed is now extinct.
I am very interested to hear that! Thanks for the background and description. I will appreciate these statues now even more!
So sad that the breed is extinct! I'm going to be doing a video one day about Britons and their dogs... I might have to give this a mention.
Cheers! XX Dara
You can also find English pubs named after the Talbot hound too. eg The Talbot Inn etc
Oh my, those thatched homes are out of this world! The market hall is an incredible centrepiece of the town. Shame about the pooping pigeon, lol!
I agree that those buildings are stunning. And as for the pigeon... well, they gotta poop somewhere ;-) haha
Ooh. I would love to shop at Chipping Camden! It looks so pretty! Loved the ‘Dragon house’ and the door! You took such great videos and photos Dara! The music you chose for the video is so fitting too 😊
Thanks so much, friend! I've been working harder on the music. It's very time consuming... but fun when I find an appropriate song!
Chipping Campden, or just Campden to those of us who live here. Camden is in North London...
I was wondering why the pub, you showed earlier in the video, was called "Eight Bells" Now I understand.... 👍
Yes, I didn't understand either until I finished the video and had pieced it all together! haha
Good on you for noticing! You are a clever one... and very attentive!
Outstanding video by you and Ian . You can see were the money as been spent in that Church ,almost a mini Cathedral . Also just imagine how grand Campden house would have been ,by looking at the grand gate house. I need to buy more lottery tickets ,for any chance of owning o property there.
Yes, that is what I thought too... if the gate house and banqueting halls were that grand, imagine what the house must have looked like!!
Thanks very much for your kind words ;-) Cheers! XX Dara
Those gorgeous homes are a treat for the eyes. They also remind me of the chocolate and biscuit tins often sold in souvenir shops. Oh Dara I have that too, when I walk on cobbled streets of old or the market squares. I can almost hear the carriage and cart wheels, the horses' hoeves and the footsteps. The history so comes alive. Love the yellow stone, bit like in the south of the Netherlands ( Valkenburg) A natural resource much used to build iconic homes. As a child I was always confused about that saying Ian. No longer confused sadly enough. Those stained glass windows are a work of art. What a lovely sharing. Thank you so very much. A real treat on this lovely morning. 💖 🤩 🇳🇱 🙋♀️ 🇳🇿
Thanks so much, Anita! I am glad you enjoy the Cotswold stone buildings and cobbled streets as well... we just love that feeling of walking back in time! Have a good Sunday! Cheers! XX Dara
That sign ain't the boss of that pigeon!! Also, the pigeon is now officially our spirit animal 😁
Very fitting. You strike me as a rebellious pigeon.
I know Ian is interested in gardens.Did you visit the garden in Chipping Campden dedicated to Ernest Wilson who was born there? He is one of Britain's great explorers, botanists and plant collectors. Several cultivars are named after him.
No I'm afraid we didn't get to that one!
@@MagentaOtterTravels A very small garden but very interesting.
Check him out on Google, he died in Massachusetts. A fascinating life.
@@jillhobson6128 wow that is interesting!
What a stunning view from over the stone wall to the top of the smooth rolling hills.
Yes, a very "Cotswolds" view indeed! I LOVE it... and miss it! Can't wait to get back...
their is also chipping norton chipping sodbury chipping walden
So many chippings! I did film some of Norton but not the others. Yet ;-)
Hi there!! New friend here and loved your video! Great content on this channel. Love it. Wish you the very best. Would love to stay connected. Much Love from us. God bless you❤️❤️❤️
Thanks 🙏
Can certainly see why the market hall is the main event when visiting Chipping Campden, it's gorgeous. Love the floors! Cobbled stones are very iconic. I'm loving this town, it's really lovely to see. And incredible that you've shared this with us as i haven't been around the Cotswolds, so I love living through the Cotswolds through you two! Thank you! Stunning houses around too, it's really beautifully filmed as usual Dara and Ian. Thank you so much for sharing this with us, looking forward to another new village or town to get lost in! x
Thanks very much, Alessa! Next week we take a quick break from Cotswold towns for a quick travel plan update... and then back to a few more gems from the Cotswolds ;-) And then hopefully I'll get some Wales vlogs published before we head back to Britain!! Cheers! XX Dara
Wow, what a place, those monuments are stunning! Your favourite Devils Door Dara!? Wow, high praise indeed. Great video as always! 😍👍
I have a problem with saying every devil's door is my favourite... until I meet my next favourite, haha!
@@MagentaOtterTravels superb, a great characteristic! Love the enthusiasm! ♥️
So much history, so much that I am so totally clueless about!! Thank you for all the info you provide in these videos, Dara -- and I know Ian is a big part of that too. Also, you chose some particularly gorgeous music for this one; I really liked it, and it fit so perfectly. 🎶🥰
Thanks so much! I've been working hard on improving my music game... it takes a ton of time, AND a ton of luck... I only sometimes hit it just right ;-)
I agree, Dara, you did a great job with the music!
What?!?!? I’m first?!?! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Haha, this comment when into my spam/held for review folder! I'm glad you were first Theresa ;-)
@@MagentaOtterTravels lol I have to remember not to comment immediately but it was so tempting!
A really super video of Chipping Campden with a lot of information, a lot that I didn't know about! I have been in the Noel Arms Hotel, very nice!
How fun! I’m sure there are many nice places in town. I need to explore more of them on my future visits.💕
Thanks for commenting! Cheers! XX Dara
So with Mr Grevel there has been an influencer in Chipping Campden before you 😁....but you are way more amazing!!!
Haha, but he was way more wealthy! (Adjusting for inflation of course 😀 )
Yet another great video: thank you so much for your posts! I may only rarely comment on them but I do watch them religiously! I don't know this village but my eldest brother lived in Chipping Norton, which is a bit further south, and I love the Cotswolds.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. I'm glad to hear that you are enjoying the Cotswolds series! We spent a bit of time in Chipping Norton as well, but really love Chipping Campden in particular. It has such wonderful history and beauty!
Where to start? My imagination runs wild with thoughts of days past, the market to the breathtaking church and who might have lived in those beautiful thatched roof homes! Great video Dara!! ~Cara 😊
I love imagining the historical days as well. Just so different from where I live in Texas where most of the buildings I see were built in the past 20 years.
A lovely video to start the weekend Dara. Thank you for being so informative and appreciative of our country. I'm 57 but I've yet to visit the Cotwolds. I must try to make an effort to see them this year.
Yes, you should! Because they are gorgeous. THIS 57 year old will be there again... showing her friends around ;-)
Forgot the entertainment
4 pubs all serving good food 2 good hotels
You can get Indian , Thai , Greek , Italian and I think French food as well as the traditional English fare
Thanks for the comment! We were racing around that day and didn't get to eat in Chipping, so I really appreciate you mentioning that. as we take friends back to these towns/villages this summer, we shall have to try out some of these places. Would love to have a meal at the Eight Bells on the way to the church ;-) Cheers! XX Dara
I guess we need to make some "Chipping" videos instead of "Market" videos. So cool to see a phone box that still works.
Yes! Get to England for some Chipping videos! And eat some Chips whilst you are there!! ;-)
We are planning our first trip to the Cotswolds for a few days next year and staying in Chipping Campden. Still not sure if we will hire a car or not because we are really nervous to drive. I’m wondering do you think there’s enough to visit and see by foot and public transport from there?
Yes I understand the hesitancy about driving. I actually don't drive when I am in England! There is a lot to explore in Chipping Campden and nearby areas. There are also local buses you can take. And there are also Cotswold tours that you can go on. So you can skip hiring a car if you prefer.
Regarding walking over cobbles in high heels, have you seen the video of Princess Mary of Denmark and the Duchess of Cambridge walk over a cobbled courtyard in Copenhagen wearing stilettos? Okay, the cobbles were not as uneven as those in the market but still pretty impressive. Another interesting video, thank you.
I would be hopeless! I can no longer walk on a nice flat floor in high heels... I'm not as young as I used to be ;-)
love chipping Campden, shame about the parked cars on the street.
Yes, that is always the dilemma... we would love to have the villages all look the way they did in the 1600's with no cars lining the streets and clogging the market square. BUT ... we all want to go visit. A bit of a necessary evil ;-) My husband would say we all need to bike there! haha
Agree! Wouldn't it be nice if they pedestrianised the high street just like they've done in many cities? It would totally enhance the ambience of the town.
I love the way your filming is so smooth - no jerkiness at all! Do you use a tripod?
No. I just don't drink coffee, LOL!
Seriously, some days are better than others. And I still struggle with jutter that drives me BATS!!!! I thought it was a frame rate issue, but it's not. Bane of my existence, grrrr... But thanks for the compliment!
Have you noticed we're emulating your commenting style? DO YOU LOVE IT? Guess we'll end on this one as to not clog up the joint. We think of Dominic West whenever we hear Oliver Cromwell even though they probably look nothing alike. And your Devil's Door make us think of Being John Malkovich. Anyway, this was a lovely tour as always, nobody does it better!
"commenting style" as in leaving loads of comments as you watch the video? Yes, I love it! It's nice as a creator to hear what people think is interesting... and it is always nice to have those "engagement" boosts! Now I just need to get more people to click the LIKE button! Let me know when you figure that one out ;-)
Do you do your research before going to a place or after you've found the place ?
Ideally BEFORE! That is why I love my videos like Gloucester Cathedral because I researched EVERYTHING before I went. When we were in Cornwall, I just followed along wherever Ian took me with no prior research.... it made the video scripting much more difficult!
@@MagentaOtterTravels I guess that it's a bit annoying when you get there and the place is closed 😡
Try saying "Countless Cotswolds" 5 times fast!
I get tongue tied all the time! Thank goodness for editing! ha ha
I thought "Heaven is a Place on Earth"
Perhaps Belinda and the Bible differ on this topic.
@@MagentaOtterTravels 🤣🤣👍🙏
anybody else see Chewbacca in that altar hanging? 😂
Had to go back and re-watch... nope, not seeing. I think you have a vivid imagination! Or maybe the force just isn't with me ;-)
But what if the Needles was off the coast of the IOW, and the man was rich in knowledge or wealth of experience 🤔
Another obscure reference by our friend, Eric ;-) I'm going to assume that was a rhetorical question... haha
@@MagentaOtterTravels it's in response to what Ian said about a camel through a needle / rich man in heaven
@@wencireone I understood that part, I just didn’t know enough about the Isle of Wight! But Ian was just telling me about the record-breaking winds recorded at the Needles during the recent storm Eunice.
Maybe it is a Scottish pigeon, who wants to mark his protest!! 😂
You never know... could be!
At least with a devil's door you'll know which way is North
Something I need since I'm always very directionally challenged!!!
