  • In this Uk travel episode we take you to the unique, privately owned fishing village of Clovelly. The village was once owned by William the Conquerer and still remains in private hands today. There are no cars, no holiday lets (just two hotels linked below) and no light pollution. If you want to live here, you need to apply and even go through an interview but even then, you'll only be renting a cottage rather than own it yourself. But in return, you get a wonderful community of villagers, all passionate about keeping this village alive. Join us for a little wander around this fascinating place.

    Thanks for the lovely visit to Clovelly, glad the weather brighten up for you, I am always worried about tripping up on the cobbles, they can be uneven,such a picturesque village.Enjoy your trip to Cornwall.xx

      So glad you enjoyed the short virtual tour 🥰 We were so happy we got a couple hours of dry weather before the heavens opened again as we headed south! Definitely lucked out there. I feel you! I nearly slipped three times on the walk down, I can’t imagine having to walk up and down those cobbles every day 😳 Cornwall has been lovely thank you, look forward to sharing it next Sunday. Hope you’ve had a wonderfully relaxing weekend x

      Aww bless you! Thank you 🥰🙏 If you ever get the chance I highly recommend a visit to Clovelly, it’s such a unique little place. I’d love to visit Idaho! The landscape looks amazing there. Wishing you a lovely Sunday ❤️

      @@theslowtravelsfamily ! I’m always open to making new friends.. we live below Bogus basin, a lovely ski area,, we are in the Valley by The Boise River; we are short distances from beautiful lakes ( 1-2 hours) and other lovely mountains, mid to late Spring is gorgeous here, we do have very pretty autumns also. Plenty of room in our home and lots of legos and toys I’ve kept from older children! Blessing to you one and all! I love going to dreamy places… even if they are on line! 🤭🥰

    • @theslowtravelsfamily
      @theslowtravelsfamily  ปีที่แล้ว

      It’s such a unique place, can’t recommend a trip here enough! I can’t remember exactly off the top of my head, but I think it was in the region of £3 per adult so not too bad. Definitely worth it compared to the walk back up 😅

    The name 'Clovelly' reminds me a lot of how English people mispronounce Welsh space names. The 'LL at the beginning of the word sometimes gets turned into a 'C' with the middle 'll' pronounced as 'l'. I wonder if hundreds or thousands of year ago, this settlement would have been 'Llyfeli' or 'Llyfelu'. Any Welsh speaker would understand why I think this might have been the case.

    It is hard not to fall for the charm of Clovelly, ; long may it remain as unspoilt.
    Seeing it again brought back intense memories of discovering it by chance and descending the cobbled streets so gingerly with my tiny first baby in my arms.

    • @theslowtravelsfamily
      @theslowtravelsfamily  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You’re absolutely right about that! I’ve been a few times and I still want to return time and again. I’m glad this video brought back memories of your own trip there. There are some lovely places along the devon coast and you did well discovering this one purely by chance 😊

    Thank you for a great video and reminding me of a magical visit to Clovelly about 5 years ago - felt like I was there again. It was pouring that day and I genuinely thought I was going to injure myself far from home on the steep slippery stones. I've been to England 20 times over decades and am convinced I should've been born there. Looking forward to catching up on your other videos. Your daughter is beautiful!

    • @theslowtravelsfamily
      @theslowtravelsfamily  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you! I'm so pleased you enjoyed this episode :) Happy to hear it brought back some lovely memories of your own visit. My goodness, I've had the same experience! I took Heidi on a little girlie weekend away last year and we stopped by Clovelly for an afternoon when it was chucking it down. The amount of times I nearly slipped over...

    Love the 'rock'.. My daughter did the same when she was 7.. carried a rock up a cliff path to take home. She still has it, she is now 49. 🥰

    • @theslowtravelsfamily
      @theslowtravelsfamily  ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh that's so lovely! Heidi still has her 'cat paw' too, it made it all the way home with us lol. Knowing Heidi, she'll still be treasuring it long into the future too :)

  • @baylessnow
    @baylessnow ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I remember when I first visited, back in 1984, before the tourist centre/entrance was built and the only thing you had to pay for was the LandRover ride back up to the carpark. I was surprised to see how it had become a money making tourist trap, when I took my wife in the 90's. It is a lovely little village though.

    Thank you for yet again a lovely episode, dear Stacy. 😊It is so lovely to see your family in beautiful Great Britain. It reminds me of our lovely holidays we had in England, Wales and Scotland.

      Thank you so very much 🥰 so pleased you enjoyed our mini trip to Clovelly. It’s such a unique little place. Hopefully you get to have many more holidays here in the UK ❤️🙏 Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

    The stone your daughter picked up was way cooler than the stuffed animal but obviously much harder to carry.

    • @theslowtravelsfamily
      @theslowtravelsfamily  ปีที่แล้ว

      She was determined to bring it home with her! Managed to carry it all the way to Land Rover we caught back up which was amazing going as it weighed a ton 😳 It’s now safely back home with us 👍

    Even I love Clovelly and I'm not a seaside girl at all! (I know I'm odd) I didn't realise it was privately owned or that there were no cars, amazing! Thank you for another lovely little trip. 🥰

    • @theslowtravelsfamily
      @theslowtravelsfamily  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Clovelly just has such a fantastic feel to it doesn’t it?! 😍 Yes, still privately owned and I don’t think that will be changing any time soon which I think is a great thing. It keeps unique places like this alive.

    This is quite the finest seaside village I have encountered. Given your Nation's inheritance taxes, I am pleased to see that this family has been able to maintain control of such a fine property.
