Cotswolds travel vlog: The most beautiful village in England & the Venice of the Cotswolds

heat heat [Music] [Music] Herkese merhabalar, welcome to our channel. We’re 
in the Cotswolds today we’ve come to a village called Bibury which is a very very popular 
small village not far from Bourton on the Water and Cirencester so we’ve just parked up at 
the Bibury Trout Farm you can see the sign there there’s a car park two car parks and overflow 
and a regular car park there which is needed   because we’ve just got to the village and 
it’s full of people full of cars so yeah we’ll we’re just going to make our way into the village 
down towards the river and this is yeah the trout   farm’s £8 entry so if you want to come here £6 for 
children free for toddlers so yeah let’s take a look. So this is interesting and we just sort of 
saw this sign as we’re passing by the fishery the trout farm so you got to catch your own fishery 
here which basically means if you catch a fish you can’t return it to the water all fish that 
are caught could be killed and paid for which is interesting if you not wish to see the fish killed 
or do not do a push then please do not commence fishing so don’t start fishing unless you want 
to catch a fish and either kill it or pay for it so it says it so mangal they’ve got some make your own mangal herbs and 
spices available. Taze baliklar you can see he nets here and it says like the 
killing you don’t do it yourself so done by the supervisor oh supervising adult okay so you 
do it yourself or a member of staff so you can   do it yourself or a member of staff does it it 
actually it actually gives you instructions of how to do it hold the fish in one hand and bring 
the back of its head three or four sharp blows [Music] [Laughter] [Music] it’s our first trout our first balik you 
can see actually inside this is where they the farming of the trouts 
is i guess keeping the water purified this guy here doing cleaning 
or something i’m not sure it’s like a children’s play area as well 
fountains it looks nice in there it’s   £8 entry so it’s not cheap 
but if you wanted to do it [Music] [Music] you can see actually on this sign that it’s got 
like Chinese i assume are Chinese or Japanese Asian style writing i assume that’s because the 
number of guests that come from that part of the world the tourists that come to Bibury from Asia 
i’m sure we’ll probably see that elsewhere here as well that’s the Swan Hotel that’s the hotel you’ll 
see as you come over the bridge into the village you can see why it’s so popular 
really pretty little place the   flowing water sounds really nice as well mis gibi. sort of the way in we came in you see 
the people sat on the bridge with lots   of cars coming in and out constantly. It’s 
my first time here actually this is a kopru Bibury koprusu [Music] see the shallow water as 
well good for a paddle but i don’t think people paddle here people paddle in bourton on the 
water but i don’t think they paddle here heat [Music] heat [Music] [Music] heat heat [Music] [Music] heat heat [Music] [Music] heat heat [Music] so we’re at Arlington Row now which is one of the 
most famous sort of rows of houses most famous   streets in England especially the Cotswolds it 
dates back to the 14th century was originally a wool store like a lot of places around this area 
the Cotswolds like stow on the wold very famous   as a wool town in the old days um it’s actually 
it’s owned by the National Trust this street but it’s sort of rented out or tenants lease the 
properties from them one one of which apparently is a holiday rental which must be quite difficult 
to get i thought i think that’s probably sold out most of the time it’s been used in quite a lot of 
films Bridget Jones’s Diary, Stardust, i think it used to be on stamps sorry not stamps but on your 
passport when you opened up your passport book and you saw pictures of England and various other 
places i think Arlington Row was on one of those   as well so yeah very famous street as you see 
lots of people here come to see it taking pictures yeah as i touched on earlier as well 
Bibury’s coming to a lot of Japanese tourists come to Bibury apparently that’s 
because Emperor Hirohito came here on his European tour stayed in the village so it’s 
it’s a place that a lot of people want to   come from Japan to come and see what he saw 
as well so yeah it’s a very interesting place you see the it’s quite low low doors 
low windows the beams on the ceilings yeah these like 14th century houses 
originally so they’re hundreds of   years old i wonder if we can find which 
one’s the holiday let they’ve all got this stream running alongside it really 
beautiful like idyllic Cotswold scene maybe that one number six i’d guess 
because it’s got a a little padlock thingy on there so i guess that’s the 
one stay tuned for more tips oh yo that’s a bit scary for me i don’t 
want to stay there anymore come on [Music] [Music] heat [Music] [Music] Iyidir senden naber bake house bake house there so that’d be an old   like grain or mill or where 
they made bread ekmek firin and this is the kilise Arlington baptist church i don’t know if we can go in there i’m going to look back Melo what do you think of Bibury here yeah [Music] mhm [Music] [Music] heat heat [Music] heat heat [Music] [Music] heat [Music] heat [Music] [Music]   okay [Music] [Music] even ekmek for the balik so that was Bibury hope you enjoyed our

bakery on the water there is particularly nice actually a little cafe it’s got some 
nice seating out the back and actually the water flows along the garden at the back

sit there and still enjoy being in the garden what you going to have. pasta? brownie brownie brownie looks good

place if you get fed up of sitting   by the river or walking around the 
village come and have a look in here £9.50 entry for adults yeah you can see we’re not 
going of course we’re not going there of course there’s the back of the cafe there you can see the 
garden there you can see the water flows alongside the back and it’s really relaxing to listen 
to the water as you have your coffee and cake you get a decent view of it from here there’s 
actually no one out the back surprisingly it’s   strange all these seats available but 
no one sat there but yes really you can probably hear the water really loud from my 
microphone now so i’ll speak a bit louder but   really relaxing sound really nice little cafe 
especially in the sun and to the left there um away from the water i mentioned the motor 
museum um the cotsword motoring museum anyone who grew up in England maybe in the 90s or early 
2000s would have watched a program called Brum which is about sort of a yellow little car 
that came to life had a life of his own and he drove around bourton on the water and that 
was part of my childhood and a lot of other   people’s childhoods in in England who watched 
Brum going around Bourton and he lived here at the british motor museum so that was his 
place and every time he came alive he’d have a little drive around have a little adventure 
and i think he used to be out front but i’m not sure he might be inside now maybe it’s uh it’s 
he’s got a bit old now he likes to be inside [Music] [Music] heat heat [Music] heat heat [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] christmas christmas shop all year

Join us on our amazing road trip around our favourite spots in the Cotswolds where we show you the picturesque village of Bibury, beautiful Bourton-on-the-Water and the idyllic Lower Slaughter. #travel #travelvlog #cotswolds #bibury #bourtononthewater

Bibury was called the most beautiful village in England by artist William Morris many years ago and that title has stuck. This small Cotswold village attracts tourists from all over the globe including many from Japan and many of the signs actually have Japanese writing on them! One of the best spots is Arlington Row which must be the most photographed row of cottages in the world! It even used to be seen on the pages of the British passport.

Bourton-on-the-Water is known as the Venice of the Cotswolds thanks to the river which runs through its centre and its many low stone bridges. In summer you will see lots of people paddling in the cool, ankle-deep water while enjoying a picnic on the river bank.

Lower Slaughter is a very short journey from Bourton and is a lovely place for a peaceful little walk.
