The church door with the yew tree trunks on either side is reputed to be the inspiration for Tolkien's depiction of the doors to the Mines of Moria in LOTR.
That makes total sense, its beautiful! Steve will know exactly the door you're talking about in LOTR (I haven't watched it unfortunately 🙈). Thank you for letting us know! ~ Kristy
True! I think what we had in this video was called a "cream tea" (we'd never heard of this though, hence why we were saying "afternoon tea" )☺️ Appreciate you watching!
You should have dropped in to Lower Slaughter, which is just off the main road between Bourton and Stow a few minutes outside of Bourton via a road on the left.
You're so sweet! Thank you kindly Karen ❤️ Yes, the small villages are so lovely out in the English countryside. So peaceful and a nice change from the hustle and bustle of the big cities 🥰
We did! We actually went to Bath and Castle Combe the next day - we didnt end up publishing the video (it was too short and we didnt like the final edit). Sorry! 😢
It is a shame hey! We have a big catalogue of unpublished vlogs, may release them in future. Castle Combe is a gorgeous little town if you're considering visiting (small and easily doable in an hour) 😀 Are you from the UK?
@@KristyandSteve Sure thats absolutely your choice. I'm disappointed when sellers dont give us the choice of dairy or non-dairy though. What was it like?
Funny you say this, our airbnb host gave us the back story of clotted cream and how its made (we dont have this is Australia so was quite different to what we are used to). The old jam vs cream on the scone and which goes first? We always would put jam on first, but as our trip progressed through the UK, definitely the clotted cream first (as its a butter consistency). What are your thoughts on this ongoing contentious topic?
@@KristyandSteve No comment because this gets a little feisty. I love Devon and Cornwall both and I am not going to piss off either of these two fantastic counties.. You can make clotted cream it's really easy and have it in Oz.. Ahh Marmite vs Vegemite that old conundrum.. Marmite is older and believe it or not your spread is now 100 years old ours is almost 400 years old and is from brewing.. I like both but have a preference for Marmite unless there's bovril on the plate which is a beef extract.. Great guys sub'd 🙂
Yeah we filmed the cream tea to use in another video (our Australians Trying British Food) vlog. Definitely dont eat like that everyday are you kidding haha we'd be the size of houses! Thanks for watching ☺️

Nice vlog guys. Lots of bad things were said, moist, cream, tie you up etc.... Our minds are wandering. We've book marked it too.
Haha and thats just the final edit...you should see what we say in the raw footage! 🥴
@@KristyandSteve you two are hilarious 😂
Traditional afternoon tea includes sandwiches too!

Great production and edit, loving You UK adventure! Again edit on this is slick
Thank you very much, appreciate it ❤️
Theres over 6,000 villages in the UK
Wow!!! Really? That's A LOT considering how small the UK is 😅 Do you have a favourite ? Thanks for the info!
@@KristyandSteve I know right even i doubted it untill i looked it up..
Thanks great video ❤beautiful villages
You're so sweet! Thank you kindly Karen ❤️ Yes, the small villages are so lovely out in the English countryside. So peaceful and a nice change from the hustle and bustle of the big cities 🥰
Love to see the Cotswolds Highlighted. Thank you
Thank you for watching ❤️
Quality video. It should have more views
Thanks Adam, we appreciate that! 🤗
I could not bear to live. Living in a goldfish bowl.
Completely agree!
It’s so sad - I’m guessing the residents don’t have a say 🤷🏼♀️
Did u end up going to Castle Combe? I can't find the video for it:(
We did! We actually went to Bath and Castle Combe the next day - we didnt end up publishing the video (it was too short and we didnt like the final edit). Sorry! 😢
@@KristyandSteve that's a shame as I was looking forward to it!

Vegan bloody ice cream -- whats the world coming to?!?
Just wanted to try it, Im not vegan but like trying new things 🤷🏻♀️
@@KristyandSteve Sure thats absolutely your choice.
I'm disappointed when sellers dont give us the choice of dairy or non-dairy though.
What was it like?
Totally agree! It was "ok" - not a lot of flavour to be honest and not as creamy, definitely prefer a dairy ice cream 😋
When you have a severe egg allergy like me, vegan ice cream is the only one I can have
@@BeckyPoleninja I repeat - "I'm disappointed when sellers dont give us the choice of dairy or non-dairy though."
What month did you travel to the Cotswolds?
August ☺️
cute towns good video
Thank you! 🤗
Those roads are so narrow,omg.😅
Very narrow! Was a bit scary when cars would
fly around blind corners 😟
Clotted cream this is no ordinary cream.. You do know about the argument about jam and clotted cream???
Funny you say this, our airbnb host gave us the back story of clotted cream and how its made (we dont have this is Australia so was quite different to what we are used to).

Man, a lot of sugar, hopefully you really just eat like that when you''re filming..... really ages one quick, for a host of reasons.
