the swans at bishops palace were trained originally by servants .years ago to ring a bell and get fed , and the swans now still do this ..amazing. we visited here in the summer solstice when we stayed in glastonbury.
What stunning architecture and views! That's a dream trip for me. While I lived in England for 4 years in the early 80s, I was in the US Air Force so I didn't get to see all I wanted to see. I wish I had the funds to spend at least 6 months in England traveling around and visiting all the places I missed. Thank you, so very much for taking me on this tour. England has always seemed like home to me, and the majority of my ancestors were from the United Kingdom. Happy New Year!
I love these videos. Ive been to England once when I was 10. My dad was doing geneological research and I didn't appreciate the visits to all the graveyards and churches. These places were beautiful. ❤ I hope you had wonderful holidays.
15:44 Swans calmly swimming in neon light. 🖤 I neither had any idea I would ever see such a thing, nor how magnificent it would be! Love this. And I love this entire video. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful trip with us! I'm sure vlogs and travel videos are an extra lot of work, so thank you even more for making them, and letting us see such magical places! The UK really is a special island. If I ever went that far north again, I wouldn't even know where to start.
Montecute is definitely a Summer place...another NT property, not far from Montecute is Lytes Carey Manor. It's much smaller, but is really beautiful with guides who really love the building, and are so enthusiastic. Wells Cathedral is one of my favouritest places, so much to see, and green men and beasts hiding all over. I'm lucky enough to live only about 15 miles away, so I'm a member and visit regularly. I've still not visited Tyntesfield to go in the house, but I have sung in the chapel, and that was lovely. Dunster is worth visiting on May Day, when the Minehead Obby Oss dances in the streets, and they crown the May Queen at sunset in the Castle courtyard. It's lovely to see your take on my adopted home county. All the best to you for 2024, and thanks for the great videos.❤
I love seeing your trips to Somerset, it's so nice to see places I know so well, loved by others and visited again through their eyes. I've lived near Bath since the 90s and I can say that I have visited every single place you showed in this video (some multiple times due to their proximity), even Barrow, though I only got there in 2022. We visited in July and it was still more sheep than people! Only three or four other families were visiting at the same time as us, and such spectacular views. It's definitely worth spending a whole day in Dunster in the summertime so you can go to the mill too. If you don't mind walking up hills a bit there is also the Long Barrow in Stoney Littleton, which is worth an hour of your time! ❤🧡💛💚💙
European churches are really some of the most beautiful. I am not religious either, but as an artist, I totally appreciate them. Wonderful video Hearth❤
Most fascinating, and the shoppes in Glastonbury seem like the perfect real world version of Diagon Alley. The leather tapestry is fascinating as well.
Every time you travel and post a video, I’m so excited to watch and take note of all the magickal places. Someday I want to travel to England and tour all of them. ❤
Thanks for this fabulous video. I've been lucky enough to have visited Glastonbury twice and to tour the beautiful Wells Cathedral. I definitely want to return and see more of Somerset. I cant wait to see what treasures you have found in your book haul!! 💚
The downside of going to Somerset to visit close family is that we spend too much time at their house or in a hotel. I’ve been going into Glastonbury for a few years now, either on the journey down or home again. But I have managed to specifically stay there a couple of times & we’ve gone to the frost fayre for the last 5 or so years. I’m trying to get physically healthier so I can go up to the tor, I managed St Nectans Glen back in July, that can’t be any less of a challenge than the Tor. I’ve not found the wells yet, that’s on my next weekend visit. I got my sister in law to meet me in Glastonbury a couple of years ago for the frost fayre, despite living 25 minutes away and going to the very nearby outlet village, she had never been to Glastonbury. My youngest niece absolutely loves the place. My sil really enjoys it too, unbelievably they had never seen border Morris dancers before!!! 😂. Now my sil knows exactly where to go for presents for me and my daughter, and by the looks of things, my mini me niece, who I’ve promised to take there in the summer. As for other places, I’ve visited Wookey Hole. It’s a bit kitschy, but the caves are amazing. I would love to go to Cheddar Gorge & visit Wells. I would also like to do a leisurely A303 journey & take the time to stop at the long & kings barrows, Avebury, tye old camp (whose name escapes me) and see the Cerne Abbas giant, which apparently isn’t far from my sil’s. My brother sent me a picture of it whilst out on his motorbike. He didn’t realise how close he lived to it. One nice thing about going to the Glastonbury frost fayre this year, my sil warned that the bottom road had some flooding from the levels, so we went in from the top. As we rounded a corner at the top of the hill the Tor was floating above the mist that shrouded the valley. It was beautiful and I got some gorgeous photos of it. ❤
❤❤❤ Love your travel videos Hearth, thank you !! I hope you continue to do more, as I live in NYC and won't have the opportunity to travel to your beautiful Country. How wonderful to live in a Country steeped in such History , it's breathtakingly beautiful and magical. I do hope you do a seperate video on the Spirits you encountered, so looking forward to hearing about your encounters with the Spirits that inhabit these ancient buildings. ✨💫
Thank you so much for this. This would be my perfect holiday! I love all the buildings. I personally prefer them in Winter. Wells cathedral is stunning. I love the Arts and Crafts House in the Lake District. Also Holker Hall in the Lakes. Also Chastleton House in the Cotswolds. All beautiful.😊
Thank you so much Hearth. Those places are beautiful. I've been to Spain and Portugal, and some of their ancient places are equally as impressive. Toledo, Spain especially.
Ohhhh I love Dunster castle! I go there regularly as it's only 30 mins away from me.! I too visited just before Christmas ! It looks soooooo lovely all dressed up for Christmas too! Xx
Wow another fabulous video and place to add to my bucket list. i am innthe north of England. 50 and still not got round to going to somerset / glastonbury. Combination of sprirtuality, shops, peace and beautiful scenery. again WOW!
Thank you for taking us with you on your travel adventures! I live in the USA and have several travel fears so I will probably never see these areas in person. I love when you post your adventures!💜💜
I went to Glastonbury for the first time on my birthday last year and I’m desperate to get back there. It has such a gorgeous atmosphere. I miss it so much
Your videos inspired me to plan my upcoming Summer Solstice birthday in Glastonbury/Cornwall and surrounding areas! I appreciate your commentary and pointing out things that may or may not be points of consideration for others depending upon the individual. Though, you seem to be consistently thoughtful of such matters. Thank you for your balanced content 💜🐈⬛
Lovely images! I’ve only once been to Somerset when I visited Bath during my trip to the UK in 2011. (From Canada). Wells Cathedral looks amazing. It was one of the cathedrals I studied when I took a medieval art and architecture course. 🖤
💖💖 The travel vlogs are always so lovely and fun, plus being incredibly informative, like you're the tour guide for us! Thank you for sharing as always!
The very first clip is a place near me and boy did that take me off guard 😂 I do love living in Somerset but covens and other practitioners are very hard to find so it's pretty lonely witch wise
❤️🩷🧡💛💚💙🩵💜 wow! It was like watching a BBC documentary!😊 Amazing! Loved all those places, so beautiful 😍Would love to visit them one day myself :) I think the only countryside castle I've been to in the UK was Hever Castle, where Anne Boleyn grew up. I bet it has its fair share of ghosts as well 👻 And on that note, I would find it absolutely fascinating to hear about your experiences with spirits in those places!🙂 thank you Hearth for this lovely video💕
Thank you for sharing! So were there palm trees at Dunster Castle and snow near Burrow Mump?! Some day I intend to visit and I really appreciate you sharing all your experiences.
Looks like such a wonderful trip. I've always wanted to visit that part of the UK particularly Glastonbury. One of my favourite places to visit in England is Whitby. I've got a long weekend booked in October. Closer to home , I always find Culloden battlefield very atmospheric and moving
After seeing all of your amazing videos me and my sister are going to Glastonbury for the Beltane festival and visiting a lot of the places you have shown. I love your videos😊
What beautiful and wondrous places you were able to visit, if I am ever lucky enough to get to England I should like to visit these thank you so much for sharing them with us❤❤
Well... I've been wanting to visit Glastonbury for many years... now I have to expand the "visit me" circle around it by several dozens of miles...! :-)
Love itttttt and happy new year also could you make a video on glamours cause the only glamour I can find is make up but I think glamour more of illusion magick
Fantastic little video. I've been to some of these places but it's really nice to have ideas for others too. Have you been to wookey hole? It's a little commercialised these days but it's still cool. ❤
Wow. You have created a beautifully realized travelogue. I am going to share it with friends well beyond my magical community. And perhaps I will also start looking for cheap fares to England from the U.S. east coast. Can you (or anyone local to Somerset) recommend any lodgings that would be a good central point for visiting these destinations?

Hi, as a second generation Australian, I loved this. I have not yet visited England, but felt positively homesick!
I love these videos. Ive been to England once when I was 10. My dad was doing geneological research and I didn't appreciate the visits to all the graveyards and churches.
These places were beautiful. ❤ I hope you had wonderful holidays.

I live pretty close to Tyntesfield. Absolutely stunning place, and don't even get me started on the trees in the grounds 🥰
Somerset is such a beautiful and magical place. No wonder you keep going back. Thank you, Hearth, for taking us along 💖
Wonderful tour! And yes, definately minus the paintings of Bishops. That gave me a good laugh. 😊 ❤❤❤

I adore old churches too. Kind of ironic. Thank you for sharing these places I can only dream of going.

Have you ever been to Stanton Drew stone circle and cove? It’s near Chew. Not easy in muddy weather but very impressive!
Stanton Drew is really special, and rarely very busy :)
Beautiful places, thank you for sharing❤
So beautiful! I hope to visit the British Isles someday! ❤
You were just across the river Severn from us!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful! I love good old architecture
🖤Great spots I added to my “must visit” list

Excellent video, Hearth! I'm from the US, and the only thing we have that dates back to the 12th century is rocks. 😅
Great insightful video thank you

I want to do the walk from Bishops Palace where you can walk from there to Glastonbury
Hearth! Amazing video!!! **Smile**
Loved this ❤❤
St. Michael's church reminded me of a Assassin's creed tower, cause one of them in the game had the same look. (just not in the ruined look.)
