A Cold, Misty & Mysterious Early Morning Walk Through a Cotswold Village & Countryside

- So, today we are out and about walking in the village of Guiting Power which is located within the heart of the Cotswolds in the county of Gloucestershire in the UK. The village sits halfway between Stow-on-the-Wold & Cheltenham.
According to the 2011 census the village then had a population of 296. For a village that is relatively small it has many local amenities which include a village hall, a children's nursery (built in 1872 and first used as a school before closing), a shop, a Post Office, a bakery and also two public houses (the Farmer's Arms and the Hollow Bottom).
The local church is St Michael and all Angels which is situated on the south end of the village and is of a Norman origin dating back as far as the 12th century.
Guiting Power hosts its own music festival each year in the month of July comprising of classical, jazz and folk music.
I would definitely like to make a return visit to this village again some time this year to explore further.
There are no hidden OAAW logos within this video.
Thanks for walking with me.

Wow!😮 Feels like the most perfect place in the world. I really thought the mist made this walk even more amazing. This walk is one of my favorites. I'm sure I will be watching this many times. The field of flowers was pretty too. Are those planted or grow naturally?
Good evening T.R.P from the UK, hope all is well. Thank you so much for walking with me again :) You have got me intrigued now...”one of my favourites”, which others are your favs? I think the mist makes this walk stand out from previous walks. Did you notice I had just a little bit of latch trouble at one point and guess what? I thought of you at the time :) The fields would have been planted as the crops are grown to produce oil, usually for the cooking I believe. Regards. ~OAAW~
@Out and about Walking Hi! I have many favorites, there is always something new to see, but the ones that I can think of off the top of my head are the ones where you walk through the village, but then trail off into the countryside or surrounding park areas that surround the villages. There was one video from a while back where you started walking away from the village, and into a pasture of sheep, and you could still hear the church bells ring from quite a distance. That was really lovely. I like the village walks in the rain, very soothing. I like the walks that show historical sites. I like the holiday lights during Christmas. I like how the churches sometimes have such beautiful, manicured grounds and shrubs. I like to see how places that were built centuries ago are still looking very similar to how they once were. The serenity of your walks is so unique and I prefer it to the modern, busy, chaotic, and cookie-cutter type surroundings of most cities.....And regarding the gate latch, I didn't notice any type of fidgeting at all. If you did have trouble with any, I would just smile because I know you are human just like me. 😀. See you on the other side, TRP.
@@risa4781 that is so heartwarming to read. Thank you TRP :) ~OAAW~
مساءالخير كيف حالكم وانا معكم في هذا المنظر الجميل سبحان الله اختكم من المملكة العربية السعودية 🇸🇦 تحياتي لكم جميعا @@OutandaboutWalking
It sounds as if the entire village's bird population followed you around the town!
Hello. It certainly sounded that way and they were really loud in the last couple of minutes of the walk. Regards. ~OAAW~
Taking this early morning walk through the misty and mysterious Cotswold village and countryside was like stepping into a tranquil dream. The peaceful ambiance, with the mist adding an extra layer of allure, created a captivating atmosphere. The idyllic village with its charming cottages and the rolling countryside painted a picturesque scene. Thank you for sharing this serene experience and allowing us to momentarily escape into the beauty of the Cotswolds. Truly a captivating journey!
Good evening Relaxed Roamer. Thank you so much for your lovely comment. Glad you enjoyed this early morning walk. Keep up the good work on your channel ; All the best to you. ~OAAW~
The most beautiful weather I choose for walking🥹🌱
By watching these beautiful sceneries, no wonder if British poets or writers create beautiful and epic poems and novels.
You are very right and also beautiful music as well...:)
no words how much i am enjoying. so lovely beautiful divine. thank you
Hi, Aruna. Thank you so much for your recent lovely comments. It is good to know that you are enjoying the content on this channel. All the best to you. ~ OAAW
Almost like virtual reality when viewing the walks. As if we were on the walk ourselves! Wouldn't it be brilliant to have these walks on a virtual reality platform. Thank you OAAW for another relaxing morning!
какая прекрасная экскурсия по красивым местам. мечтаю побывать в таких изумительных местах. очень надеюсь что мечты сбываются.
What a refreshing walk, OAAW. The fields at 25:55 remind me of Yellow Rattle, a very useful plant that controls grasses so that flowers can thrive afterwards. I love the arched windows at15:22, it certainly adds a flare of character. Thanks for sharing and a have great day.
Thanks Michael. Will have a look for that flower online as it sounds intriguing. Today, Im going to have a go at getting some CalmScapes shots of some local rolling hills. Oh, btw RV is coming along nicely (designed a nice logo too) hopefully start posting within the next couple of weeks, will keep you posted ;. Thanks for walking with me. ~OAAW~
@@OutandaboutWalking I'm excited to see the outcome, OAAW. Rolling hills sounds like a great backdrop to relax and daydream to.

This walk really is gorgeous. This is the first one of your walks that I have seen so am looking forward to watching the rest. I think the early morning mists are just so enchanting. The Birds sound so happy. Thank you.
Thanks very much, Sue. All the best to you. OAAW
Very impressive Norman arched doorway.............
Wow. The mist adds a really cool dimension to the walk. We had rain here, in northeastern US, a couple of weeks ago that was so dense it looked white. Funny what a little white can do to the landscape, especially when it's not snow. It even softens the buildings.
Thank you for sharing this walk, OAAW!
Absolutely beautiful
Hi Sheridan. Thank you for your comment. Glad you enjoyed it. Regards. ~OAAW~
Wow, fantastic! So beautiful. I feel like I'm in a Sherlock Holmes movie and Nigel Basil will appear at some point.
Good morning. Thank you for your comment. It certainly does have that kind of vibe to it. All the best to you. OAAW
This is a real treat and enjoying every minute. Thank you!
Good evening Debbie. Hope all is well. Glad you are very much enjoying the walk. Regards. ~OAAW~
Thanks ❤ it help my depression 🙏🏻
Just Amazing sooo peace for meditation 🧘♂️
Thanks very much. That is great to hear that this video can aid meditation. All the best to you.
GUITING POWER is a very charming village.
I really like the color of the stones of the houses, a pinkish beige.
It's flattering and warm.
Personally I don't like the dark gray color of some Cotswold houses which I find depressing.
The houses of this village are pleasing to the eye.
Rapeseed is already high!!.
The mist gives a very pleasant mysterious and padded side too.
A very pleasant walk.
Thank you OAAW
😀😀😀😀😀😀
Thank you Françoise for your thoughts on the walk, glad you enjoyed it :) All the best to you. ~OAAW~
이런 평화롭고 신비로운 곳에서 살아보고 싶어요.
I love it. Maybe if you walk with sneakers or rubber bottom shoes it’ll be no noise! Thank you
Good evening. I do walk in sneakers with rubber bottomed soles, proper walking boots would be 2-3 times louder than this, however I have recently switched to another pair as the ones I wore in this video were starting to get squeaky. Thanks for your support. All the best to you.
Beautiful Cotswold and amazing video!

Beautiful. How old are these houses
Hi Erik. I'm not sure but I would think some of them must be centuries old.
All the best to you.

Thanks Marina :)
looks scary .......... :(
This appears like an 'idyllic' country village, but is it preserved as such by the government for the 'tourist' or 'under preservation'? Noticed only 2-or-3 telegraph poles, several cars (of course), 2-or-3 TV aerials and only one pub/restaurant---are the electric cables 'sunk' under the earth to preserve the early 20th century scene? No 'Neighborhood Watch' notices---nor any 'Police Station' near by in case of emergency!...But one did see a good 'sprinkling' of Victorian churches! Nice place for the over-60's or those into 'transcendental meditation'!!!
I'm guessing you've never even set foot in the UK countryside? This is what rural Britain looks like! It's normal.
The text tells you that for a village of around only 300 residents, there are a lot of amenities, including 2 pubs, a children's nursery, a village hall, a Post Office, a shop, a bakery and the church.
The village also holds an annual music festival, and there seems to be some kind of village conservation society.
The church has a Victorian transept, but the rest of it is much older, with its origins Norman and additions over centuries, mostly late medieval.
Villages of 300 people don't have a police station each! But a police station will cover a number of villages.
Many of the buildings, including houses, will be legally protected under the 'listing' system, which limits what can be done to them, but it would be unusual for a family home to be in the highest category of listing (Grade I) and so will be the lower grades of II* or II, which have lighter legal restrictions. Listing is a national thing, so doesn't only apply to this village or area.
I'm bemused by 'early 20th century scene'? The village and most of its buildings are far older than that!
The whole area is agricultural, so some residents will be employed in farming. From the village it's commutable for work to larger towns and cities such as Cirencester, Stroud, Cheltenham, Stratford-upon-Avon, Gloucester, Worcester and Oxford. No doubt some people work from home. Some residents will obviously attend local primary and secondary schools or colleges.
@@clairenoon4070 Guess you have 'put me in my place' with regards the entire 'set up' of that lovely part of the country! Yes, I have lived, studied and worked in the United Kingdom---mainly the big 'Smoke', but have been to the West Country ( Dorset and Somerset) and must admit there are hidden rural places of beauty. Just made notes---it takes someone like yourself to 'fill in' the blank spaces! Glad to see the countryside is looked after and appreciated! There's a lot of tradition over there!!!

How much distance has been between london and laccoke and costwold
By drive and plane
Can you let me know the exact figures
straight out of a novel
That is a lovely, thank you :)
What field is it?Is that for cooking oil?
Good morning. It is a field of rapeseed oil and is mostly used for cooking I believe. Regards. OAAW
And how many people are living in these villages of England for now
What time of the morning is this? There's no one up and about.
Hello. If I remember correctly it was around 5:20am. Regards. ~OAAW~
@@OutandaboutWalking Excellent time for a walk! Nice, as quiet and still a little chilly.😊
And no cars to be seen about either
Are people sleeping, wНеre are tНеу??
Hello. Yes, probably all sleeping. Thanks. OAAW
This feels so warm and mysterious

What is a OAAW logo?
Hello She’erit. Thank you for your question. A OAAW logo is the logo / emblem of this channel. OAAW is an abbreviation for ‘Out and about Walking’. Thanks
@@OutandaboutWalking Thank you for explaining that. Why would anybody have a problem with you using your logo in your video?
Your welcome. In some of my videos I place / hide the logo (it could be anywhere...on a wall or on a car) then the idea is the viewer would try and spot the hidden logo whilst watching the video so it is like a game, just a little bit of extra fun. Hope that makes sense?
Oh BTW, if there are no hidden logos in the video then I write in the video description ‘There are no hidden logos within this video’. Thanks :)
Wow - English birds are LOUD! 😂
Good morning. They sure are :) Regards. OAAW
How can you walk around the entire town for an hour and never see another person? It’s rather like an abandoned town!
Have you noticed the ‘early morning’ reference in the title?
Yes, I have.@@rsf5898
where's the people?
thank you
Que lugar maravilhoso ❤
25:49 where is this? is it a public footpath? would be nice for a music video.
Good evening. Yes, that is indeed a public footpath. The village is called Guiting Power. 🙏
@@OutandaboutWalking noted. thanks🙂
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thanks Annette :) Regards. OAAW
This was so peaceful 😊. What time in the morning was it?
Hello. Thank you for your comment. At a guess it would of been somewhere between 5:30 - 6:00 am (going on the time of year it was filmed). I never know the exact time I go walking because I don’t wear a wrist watch or take a phone with me. I guess this really does make the walks ‘timeless’ :). Although, saying that, sometimes a church bell can be heard striking on the hour giving a good indication of the time. All the best to you.
@@OutandaboutWalking Thank you for that. There’s something very special about that time of the morning in the summer. My dad was a postman and I remember, as a child , going out very early with him on the bike, down wee country roads, to the sound of birdsong. Your video reminded of those special moments. Thank you.🙏
