- In what is a rare thing for the channel I am exploring my homeland as today I find myself in Bottesford in Leicestershire (not to be confused with the same place called Bottesford which is in Lincolnshire) which is a quaint little village between Grantham and Nottingham. The interesting thing about Bottesford is that it apparently has one of the least used train stations in England!
Want to know what life is like in a sleepy English village? Then join me in this video as I explore Bottesford and find out what it is like to live here, meet the locals and bask in the ambience of a quiet village in what is a more relaxed video in comparison to our usual vlogs!
The place I was thinking of (at 7:06 in the video) was Scarborough by the way :D

Enjoyed your video , England is stuffed with interesting towns and villages and it's nice to focus on some of them as you've done to highlight the quirky and interesting aspects of them .
Thank you very much, we feel England is often misrepresented on TH-cam where people try to showcase the negatives over the positives showing decaying towns and high streets or poverty and destitution. Now of course we have those things but we are also an ancient land steeped in tradition, folklore, history and beauty and that is the side which is neglected in favour of showing the bad side for a few extra clicks. We're going to go against that grain and prove that England and indeed the UK has just as much to offer as any other country. Thank you very much for watching and taking the time to comment 🙂
this will be me in a few weeks having returned to the UK haha. keept it up guys
It's weird to be back when you're so used to traveling aint it mate. Are you thinking of doing UK vlogs too or are you sticking to the travel vlogs? Hope you enjoyed India dude! 🙂
Sounds the same as everywhere else in uk
Haha, yeah pretty much. Just moderately more safer 😁 thanks for watching and taking the time to comment ❤️
@@TeamMcGrathI feel the name is being said wrong as well. I swear it looks like the kind of spelling where you’d say Bottsford rather than bottesford. Did you hear a local say the name of the place?
I think you could be right to be fair, I was saying bott-is-fud...but then again that's probably down to my Peterborough accent haha. I'll have to look it up now, curious what the correct pronunciation is. Generally when I go abroad I try and learn the city names pronounced the local way, but didn't think about doing that for the UK. Some places in London get me haha, took me ages to get the pronunciation of Marylebone right haha! 😁😆
Let me know if you find out cos I’m keen to know now! Yes London names get me too eg Southwark!
I typed in Bottesford pronunciation into Google and it pronounces the same as I did, also checked another video from Bottesford and they were pronouncing it the same too...I'm still with you though, given how our city and town names can be deceiving in their pronunciation in the UK I reckon you might still be right. Fingers crossed a local comes along and helps out haha!
