Fun fact: The expression "tie the knot" (meaning to get married) comes from a reference to nets of knotted string that supported mattresses prior to the invention of metal-sprung bed frames. Hence, in order to make a marriage bed, the couple needed to tie the ropes into knots.
Interesting!! I always assumed it had something to do with handfasting.
@@annaburch3200 It does in Celtic tradition.
Wow that's so cool!
@@ThoseTwoBritsUK ❤️🇨🇦
Sleep tight is also a reference to the ropes of the bed staying tight.
Am I the only person that immediately thought of Anne Hathaway the actress…. I didn’t know there was another Anne Hathaway that had some relation to Shakespeare 😂
If it helps at all, her name was pronounced "hate-away". Shakespeare puns on it in Sonnet 145.
Those lips that Love’s own hand did make
Breath’d forth the sound that said “I hate,”
To me that languish’d for her sake:
But when she saw my woeful state,
Straight in her heart did mercy come,
Chiding that tongue that ever sweet
Was used in giving gentle doom;
And taught it thus anew to greet;
“I hate” she alter’d with an end,
That follow’d it as gentle day
Doth follow night, who, like a fiend,
From heaven to hell is flown away;
“I hate” from hate away she threw,
And sav’d my life, saying “not you.”
Same! I’m like I thought she was American…. maybe she grew up in his old house at one point? I was super confused
Houses remind me of my Thomas Kincaid pieces
Thank you for the tour! I went to the Anne Hathaway cottage 55 years ago when I was 20 years old. Now pushing 75 years old but I don't remember the interior! I remember the outside and garden and took pictures of it. Maybe it was closed the day we visited? So this was very interesting and fun to see where I had once walked in my youth!
What a beautiful area. I can see why you wanted to walk with the weather seeming perfect and all the nice cottages and foliage eveywhere. It's like walking in a story book. Very magical.
Yeah we loved the walk from the centre of town!
I was thinking of Anne Hathaway the actress when I heard Anne Hathaway from Shakes era.
Fun Fact!! The saying 'Night Night don't let the bed bugs bite' relates to the era when beds were made with straw and it had bugs/insects in the straw/hay. 😱
Also, the "sleep tight" part of the rhyme refers to tying the support ropes taut to keep the bed off the floor and yet more bugs.
Thanks for the plagiarism…
@@kates7277 How Rude 😱🤣
I love these tours of England. I only had to chance to spent 14 days to see England, Scotland and a small bit of Wales. This gives me a chance to see what I missed or revisit what I did see. My condolences on the passing of the Queen. 😢❤
Thank you ❤️
Very nice, I too love the original furniture, structures, etc. Your history is so much older than ours, it’s really fascinating, thanks for sharing! ❤️
You're welcome Joe! The furniture is so ornate! Love it!
Liked looking at the architecture and the furniture and learning some history as well.
Thanks for watching Beverly!
Hard to get around in my head , 14 generation living in the same home. Great video. Peace!
Thank you for the tour. Avon looks so lovely.
We have a generic Stratford vlog coming in the next week or so!
You really do live in the most heavenly place on Earth.
Loving this style of video!
Thanks so much Sarah!

That was so fun Joel and Lia.
So fun! Love Those Two Brit’s

Beautiful scenery. Thanks for the tour and history lesson.
You’re very welcome! Thanks so much for watching!

Such a great place!
Thanks you guys! Enjoyed it!
Love this kind of video -- I'm a nerd at heart LOL!
Loved loved loved!!!!
Thanks so much Kellie!!
Very interesting!
Thank you!
Nice tour, I was there back in 91', but I only have pictures of the outside of her home (which are quite lovely in September), just can't remember why we couldn't peek inside. So this was so much better! Thanks Joel and Lia, see you soon.
Someone else said that too! Maybe it was closed for a bit? How odd!
My parents took me there when I was about 7 years old. It was a great learning experience.
Thanks y'all I learned something 🙂
Thanks!
Pure charm ❤
Such rich history there. I absolutely loved it. One day, I would love to visit for myself. Thanks for taking us along.
Absolutely enjoyed that! Thanks for taking us along.
Thanks so much for watching Jen!
That was fascinating. I love the more unusual snippets of information such as the “gossip”. Thanks for taking us along.
Anne Hathaway’s cottage was lovely..I was able to visit it in person a few years ago..thanks for this lovely video
You’re so welcome Marissa!
Thanks so much for this. I was in Stradford Upon Avon in thr 90's and was only able to see the outside of the cottage. Its great to see the inside and hear a bit of the history.
You’re so welcome!! Thanks for watching!
I loved this video! What a charming village and the story behind their marriage was so interesting. Best part? Lia reveling in her newfound height! 😄
Hahah Lia was so pleased with herself hahah
That place is so gorgeous. I would love to go there. I live in the United States so it's highly unlikely be able to. Btw my maiden name was Hathaway!
You two should visit Salem Massachusettes some day, lots of history.
LOL I thought of the modern day actress!
Hahaha!
I thought, oh my goodness! How on earth did they get an invitation to tour Anne Hathaway’s house. 🥴 Oops, wrong Anne Hathaway! 😂🤣
Haha imagine!!
Thanks guys. Loved this. My uncle recently visited there. Such a beautiful place with a rich history. Big Love from Nashville 🇺🇲❤️🇬🇧
Thanks so much Kevin!
I've only visited the little replica af Anne's house in Epcot at WDW so this was so fun to see 😊 I love it when you take us to see the UK 🇬🇧 💕
You're so welcome, thanks for watching us!
like ava in the background on your watch joel so so cu;te!!!
hahaha she's always with me!
Carrots!!!🤣🤣🤣
What a throw back!! 😂
So Anne Hathaway was the first "cougar"! She was 26 and Shakespeare was 18!!
That was really awesome! 😊
Thank you!
I love her movies
😂
"Joel's just choosing we he fancies". Well how damn fancy!
hahah!
2:30 Maybe Wills married up!! In fact...I think the modern Wills married up as well.
Lovely...!! What do you think of Stratford-Upon-Avon as a place for US residents planning to live abroad in future...? Affordable? Easy commutes? Home prices? Planning it for my retirement in 15 years...💚
It’s an easy commute but not cheap! As a historic town it can be very expensive. But the surrounding area isn’t too bad!
keep on top of the immigration rules that have been changing. there is no more "retired person of means" visa. you need a lot more money to get into the UK now. i'm looking at 10 years until retiring.
Oh. That Anne Hathaway. Lol
👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
I assumed it was the Hollywood Actress 😆
Am I the only American who was confused thinking of the actress only to learn towards the end that Anne Hathaway is the name of Shakespeare’s wife?! 😂
I had no idea she was over five hundred years old. She looked quite young in Les Misérables.
😂😂
Shakespeare was a bit of a Rebel wasn't he? 80 and getting the local socialite pregnant 😲😂😂
Thanks guys!💕💕💕💕
The fact that I thought this was about the current Anna Hathaway 🤦🏾♀️
Hahaha!
I thought you said Shakespeare was 80 when they had their first kid together 🤣🤣🤣
Carrots😊
Flys hate lavender
Do they? That’s a good deterrent!
*flies
It is not Anne Hathaway's cottage. It's the Hathaway's family house. She never owned.
the day I was there a bus load of German tourists unloaded
Really? Anne Hathaway? From "The Princess Diaries"?
I was literally sooooo confused. Made it half way through the video thinking they were talking about the actress
@@collettelowry4227 HAHA. I was joking. I've long known that Willy's wife was named Anne Hathaway.
@@LyleFrancisDelp never in my life new he had a wife let alone her name🤷♀️
@@collettelowry4227 Yep. I learned it years ago from a documentary on PBS, about the unproven theory that Willy didn’t actually write his plays. They covered his upbringing, education, and marriage to Hathaway. Of course, this was long before anyone ever heard of the actress.
I legit thought this was going to be about the actress… 🧐
Haha oops!
Am I the only one that thought this video was gonna be about the actress? LOL SHUT..UP!!
Hahaha 🤣
"Religious people nowadays don’t believe in superstition." That’s rich.…
Loved this video!
Thanks so much!
