I live in Chesterfield so I am about 15 minutes from Chatsworth. I'm glad I avoided the Country Fair at those prices. The admission charge was enough to put me off from buying tickets.
Gotta have bubbles in cider! 😀 Mind you, when I worked in the 'scrumpy house' in Salisbury, the old boys drank the flat from a barrel and if a bit of the barrel lining was included, all the better!!! (Never did understand that bit!!!😂) Another smashing 'drinks information' video thank you both
Big Man £28.50 to get in ? bloody hell thats 9 double vodka's in my local and a packet of dry roasted nuts lol love your work guys looking forward too the next one already .................
brilliant video sorry helen im with james the rotherham fair wins hands down, £28.50 each for practically the same stalls & food vans , plus its local so not as far to travel so saving on fuel to get there, win win❤❤
Great vlog guys...keep em coming...I'm sure Helen went in trap 5 and somehow came out of 9...if you like JCB's you and Helen should pop to Diggerland, that'd be a right laugh 😁😋
Used too GO to Chatsworth farm shop for wild boar Sausages when Visiting Sister in Laws in Sheffield ,But I used to Darlington Show many Years ago ,Many country shows in North Yorkshire ,Allways a good day Out .
Great video again loads of fun and humour from you and Helen, James your on my wave-length. You'll have to visit our home bar. Maybe do a video's on home bars!!! 😂
Here's something which is now a lot more expensive, which used to be a cheap day out. Pick your own fruit! Some farms charge something like £3 to £4 entry fee per person including children, before you've even paid for the strawberries you pick (There was never entry fees years ago). It used to be a way to get a load of strawberries for a lower price than the supermarkets. Also they now often require a slot to be booked, so you can't just call in if you pass the farm.
I enjoyed today's comparison. I'm with you, Chatsworth is just greedy. They charge exorbitant fees for stallholders, which is then passed on to the public. Just a ripoff. In a word appalling .😮😮 😮😮😮😮😮😮
Loved this video. The entrance cost is disgusting and charges for food and drink well I cannot bring myself to pay those prices, but watching your video for free really helps.. love your Yorkshire sense of humour and comments from Helen.. you got a mention on a Tenerife Vlogger friend of ours “ Just Rick” by one person on the Chat.. keep doing the work you’re good at it.. Raymundo y Patricia Lancashire!! 😊
Agreed. Same down here in Cornwall with the Royal Cornwall show. Ridiculous entrance fee for essentially a trade show and ripped off beyond words with food and drink. I stopped going several years ago. Prices for food and drink in general now are not viable for most working class people as incomes have not gone up to compensate. It's insane.
We had to have a brek for us tea betweent two (pause button): Ham and cheese, lettuce and cucumber sarnies (crusts in - we know where our bread's low fat spreaded!) 😮.
Very good videos of your visit to Chatsworth country fair and the Rotherham fair. Food and drink traders at these events have to charge the prices they do because the greedy organisers have most likely charged them 1k - 2k + per day to pitch up there. The 4 day Burleigh Horse show and country fair was here just north of Peterborough last weekend. If you wanted to go for the full 4 days, it would cost you, including parking and admission two people just over £500, if you paid on the gate. If you pre-booked online, the price came down to £285.
I would have went back with the food and asked for my money back because it was unfit for eating. The same with the sickly sweet Cider. Good advice to people to bring packed lunches.
Two Great vlogs there for the price of one👌👌👌👍. Great to meet you both at the show. Chatsworth all the way for us, don’t forget that includes house and gardens + show. Can’t wait for the two vlogs we can expect soon you told us about.shush….Kevin & sue.
Another enjoyable video guys, I'm sure I would have turned around and made for somewhere else at £28.50 each for one day. Being Chatsworth perhaps they thought if we charge that amount it will keep the Hoy Polloi out, like those beer drinking pub crawler types, you know the ones 😘. So that leather cleaner, restorative, polish stuff, I bought a tub of that at the Usk agricultural show the year before lockdown and I must say it does last and that it's very good, I've been useing it on shoes, coats, and furniture, only paid a tenner for mine and at £15 still a worthwhile purchase.👍
Hi to you both ,enjoyed your blog .I dont think I would of paid that much to get in for sure ,I prefer a loverly walk around the country side ,and pop into a local pub 😊 ange
Enjoyable watching you and Helen as usual, Chatsworth way to expensive to get in and out of the average families pocket when adding the costs of food and drink. Were as Rotherham show was well worth the visit and great entertainment for families. Take your own food and drink and only costs are the side shows etc. cheaper day out , oh was nice seeing what looked like Luke Stoltman in the strongman stone walk event. As a child i lived in Nottingham and as a familty we loved going to Goose Fair.
Well that brought back some memories. Not of the two shows you visited but of the two we used to have in Northampton. I used to love a country show back in the day. I was shocked at the prices you were having to pay. But you took one for the team. Well done. It would be my idea of hell these days. 😂 Toilet roulette was hilarious by the way. 🤭🤭😄
@@Ned.1274 Yes. The two shows to which I referred, were the Timken Show at Duston (my favourite) and Nothampton Show. The Balloon Festival was back this year but I didn't go, I'm too old and decrepit now. 🤭🙂
Great video, we were at the Rotherham show and really enjoyed it, good family day out, weather brilliant. Price of entry to Chatsworth put us off to be honest, knew food and drinks would be expensive as well. Keep doing what you're doing.
Chatsworth a magnificent building in an amazing location so is definitely worth a visit. Good to see the Rotherham show still going strong when a lot of town galas have declined.
New subscriber, love the videos and banter. It is great to see unbiased views. In this video you said it's a big fair, may I suggest you take a trip to the Hoppings (if you haven't already lol) which are held in Newcastle upon Tyne in the last 2 weeks of June every year. They have been going since 1882.
If you ever go back to Chatsworth country fair, try the archery. I used to shoot with Derwent Bowmen and we used to have a 'have a go' there. At the time it was cheap. It was a hard few days, but well worth it. I would love to see how you and 'Hellibob' do.
I was at the Mondays / Noel Gallagher show last Friday at Don Valley and the food & drink prices were exactly the same . It’s pretty much standard right now I guess . Still boycotting Chatsworth for the entry price though , ridiculous.
Can'r believe the cost to get in to Chatsworth. There seemed more to see at Rotherham as well, loads more than the Christmas market at Wentworth Woodhouse.
Was a great watch James/Helen but that`s life these days ... A couple of nights in Llandudno would have been more cost effective i think .. These vendors simply don`t use logic because if they halved their prices and gave better service they would still make a handsome profit and prob triple their sales ... Sad really but enjoyed the tour!
Living the dream guys! I remember those fairs..... you'd do around the stalls/tents/whatever and the kids would spot the fudge stall....homemade, blah blah blah...so they'd load up the little sweet shovel and then came the weighing! 12.50 for a half dozen sweets! Never again! ☀️ Enjoy the craic anyway. 👊
@@bythecurbps my mam trained as a nurse in Rotherham, late 40's/early 50's. She LOVED THE PEOPLE and always spoke highly of the Yorkshire people, hardworking and so FUNNY! Cheers from Ireland. ☀️
Hilarious, how does Helen find these people. At 6.08 the guy says don't find the one with the red stripe....if you know you know. lol. Love how they are drinking out of coffee cups. If I had to choose, both good, but I agree with Helen, its good to sometimes put your Hunters and Barbers on and feel posh.x
I like this video Helen & James as I thought it was just me that complained about the prices at these sort of events. That is the part I go for is the food and drink, but like you, I walk from stall to stall and end up buying nothing and calling into a chippy when we leave. ALSO, now its just arrived is the Christmas Market 2023 (I live in Manchester so that is the one I am moaning about) where they are extremely dear for the food and drink. (you might want to do a review on a Christmas Market maybe) (at least you don't have to pay to get in) (yet). So I have seen a few of your videos, the last one being Benidorm Fiesta, and I am liking them so now I have just subscribed but not sure where I am in the 1.7k subscribers. So now I am backtracking through your videos watching them and playing catchup. I don't know your ages, but I am 65 and wish I had done something like this when I was younger. But they didn't have Cinetube in those days. 😝😝😝 Best Wishes. Colin. P.S. I won't tell anybody I saw you laughing and smiling James 21:48 🤫🤫 🤭🤭🤭🤭
Thanks Colin, thanks for subscribing. Lots of people have asked us to do a Christmas Market, not sure if. I'm going to yet as I agree with you that they can be a rip off
Two nice days out but can't beat a freeby for me!, many years since ive been to the Rotherham show. Think if you'd bought the program at the Chatsworth one you would have got more out of the day, as you would have seen more like you say. Helen running for the bar never fails to make me chuckle 😂such enthusiasm!
Our new Sunday night TV , we get in exactly the same situations , we are 50% in the van but still have to do some work , the future of TV ,, brilliant , nice to see people loving pubs
A date for your diary next year Nantwich Food Festival it's over 3 days , it's on every year beginning of September, it was on last weekend. They also have a jazz festival not sure when on just follow Nantwich Town Council news seem to have loads going on.
Didn’t know the difference between cider and perry, it’s apple and pears lol 😅😅😅 get yourself to the Robin Hood beer festival at Trent Bridge in October
I went to the Silverstone Festival a few weeks back. Great day out it must be said if you're a petrol head. But £35 for two burgers and chips is eye-watering. They were good quality though. I think your advice is best. Pay the entrance price and cater for yourselves.
I love Chatsworth house , use to go in motor home it's beautiful at Christmas and there fair , you took me back there like sad has my husband has passed away , oh my god prices dear now , put the companies what 2 grand from there taking in some places , 👍👏
🙋♀️ Can't believe you dipped in your pocket for Chatsworth - I would DEFO have turned around and been off to a pub ‼️ Rotherham was a very nice day - lots to see and do - didn't see any loos though - perhaps that's what you were paying for at Chatsworth ....
I agree with you 15 years ago sort of in Bournemouth my wife and I went to a country fayre even though we could afford it we would not pay the entrance price regards Howard from Cyprus
Oh guys you should of kept talking to the guy with the grey mullet and pack up 5mins in..absolute character..oooh get me wellingtons and go see sheep!!! 😂🐑 love you guys..this coming from a 42yr old single dad of one and seriously depressed..but for some reason your little vlogs cheer me up every time bcoz your just the average guy and gal doing there thing..(no offence 🤩) love your everything together..I never comment on tube vids until now..take care and give roseberry topping a visit on outskirts of Middlesbrough x
As been mentioned before the price stallholders have to pay for the space or an inside stall is astronomical. Less than 10 years ago i would pay around £10 for a pitch at a country town/village fete or fun day. Now the expectation is around £30, which for hobbyists and handcrafters is a lot. 4 day events are for those who make a living from their wares, so whether its a village fete or country mansion fayre, they are the ones making the real money by charging exorbitant amiunts for pitches and stalls.
As food vendors, and polar opposites of you two ❤, we can explain some of the reason for the high food prices. We used to look at the gate price, if it's high you can bet folk will take a pack out. Then the organisation that puts the event on will be charging the vendors a big wedge to be there (£800 low/£2000 high possibly more for 2/3 days) so as is plain as the nose on your face at a fiver a pop (cheap end, that was us) for any food item, you have to sell some food to cover just being there. If it rains, you get no refund, we paid £650 once and took home £200 for 16hrs plus stock. So ask how much the small, independant looking food stalls have paid to be there, not the massive burger units and put the gate price into the equation to see why they have to charge that price. Love your stuff guys ❤
You two remind my husband and I of my sister and her husband. Our husbands are both English, mine from Clacton on Sea, hers from Chorley. We have both been married over 50 years. Just like my sister Julie and Dave her husband. Used to be, still are. So funny. ❤🇦🇺
First ; you two are a hoot ! Humour right up my Straase including the crap dad Jokes. Almost as jokey as them there prices! I’d rather eat my own you know what .. nice one
Helen's comment about the bread truck brought back memories of the 60's. Mom use to buy dad's bread from it, only place you could find it. I always wanted a chocolate brownie from it, didn't always get one but happy when I did. I would choose the free Council Show over the pay to get in fair. One looks just as good as the other so why not pick the one for free. We had one county fair in the Summer and the first day of the fair always kicked off with a parade first. Later, we started getting Street Fairs down Main Street, especially near to Christmas time. Thanks James and Helen for the fair share.🎪🎡🚜🍟🍻😊
luv the channel nice to see prize etc have wee van all that been with my wife 20 yrs 60 in oct tonight she is lying in sun bed i am putting washing out 🤣what has happened🤣

As been mentioned before the price stallholders have to pay for the space or an inside stall is astronomical. Less than 10 years ago i would pay around £10 for a pitch at a country town/village fete or fun day. Now the expectation is around £30, which for hobbyists and handcrafters is a lot. 4 day events are for those who make a living from their wares, so whether its a village fete or country mansion fayre, they are the ones making the real money by charging exorbitant amiunts for pitches and stalls.
As food vendors, and polar opposites of you two ❤, we can explain some of the reason for the high food prices.
We used to look at the gate price, if it's high you can bet folk will take a pack out. Then the organisation that puts the event on will be charging the vendors a big wedge to be there (£800 low/£2000 high possibly more for 2/3 days) so as is plain as the nose on your face at a fiver a pop (cheap end, that was us) for any food item, you have to sell some food to cover just being there. If it rains, you get no refund, we paid £650 once and took home £200 for 16hrs plus stock. So ask how much the small, independant looking food stalls have paid to be there, not the massive burger units and put the gate price into the equation to see why they have to charge that price. Love your stuff guys ❤
My mate had a small stand there, he paid £800 and said that he didn't do very well!
So the organisers are greedy.
You two remind my husband and I of my sister and her husband. Our husbands are both English, mine from Clacton on Sea, hers from Chorley. We have both been married over 50 years. Just like my sister Julie and Dave her husband. Used to be, still are. So funny. ❤🇦🇺
I bloody love prom scratching. There’s a pub I go to sometimes they have them served warm off the bar.

Helen's comment about the bread truck brought back memories of the 60's. Mom use to buy dad's bread from it, only place you could find it. I always wanted a chocolate brownie from it, didn't always get one but happy when I did. I would choose the free Council Show over the pay to get in fair. One looks just as good as the other so why not pick the one for free. We had one county fair in the Summer and the first day of the fair always kicked off with a parade first. Later, we started getting Street Fairs down Main Street, especially near to Christmas time. Thanks James and Helen for the fair share.🎪🎡🚜🍟🍻😊
You're welcome. Back in the 70s & 80s the Rotherham show started with a parade too. Everyone used to line the streets to watch the floats go by.
Alan Titchmarsh not being around a festival is a definate bonus. 😉😂🤣😂🤣
