Thank you for letting us tag along. It was lovely. I was afraid to imagine what would happen if you had taken a wrong step on the Vicars stairs.🤗❤️🐝
A town which shows how progress doesn't fit as vehicles and the volume of vehicles wasn't in the town planning at all. A few horse carts being the only type in the day. This village really does show the path of history and development. Especially the church. Thanks as always. Loved the bnb with the view. Take care =-)
Church stunning ..village beautiful…charming ❤❤❤
Those lamb chops looked FANTASTIC!!!
I would advise NOt going in the summer- we tried to park twice nut it was too busy. A place to visit out of season 😊
Looking forward to the next vlog😊
I have really enjoyed these Northumberland tours, thank you x
Ooh Will, that lamb meal looked yummy. Really enjoying your trip in Northumberland.❤
Outstanding! Corbridge is so cute with such a cozy ambience! Especially in the evening twilight! I just loved it! Such quaint & charming Homes & Buildings. As well as truly unique & interesting Shops, charming Restaurants & Pubs & the delicious looking Bakery! Not to mention the rustic & beautiful St Andrews Church, with such lovely stained glass windows & amazing architecture! This charming Village & the beautiful surrounding area is wonderful! Thank you for sharing your delightful experience there! Blessings to you both!
Wonderful tour. Thank you for sharing. I am adding this to my wish list. 😊
Beautiful ! specially like the evening walk, when the streets are almost empty and the buildings even more pretty with all the lights. Amazed to see so little people in the pubs, for some reason I thought the English were pub goers!
So appreciate you both making these places available to those of us who are thousands of miles away ❤
As always, thank you. The mix of history and all these places has to offer. The one thing we wondered is how they manage the traffic on the one lane bridge.
Hoping everyone can match my small donation if they can afford to do so! 🏰
Great video! But what is a pant?
From the horse's mouth…curry house always wins 😅
The bakery was tempting 😅
I hate the commercials that interrupt your video. But I guess it pays the bills 😢
What a charming place and an other fabulous video! Two things amaze me, the age and history of many of these beautiful buildings, and how much walking you gents do!
Corbridge was lovely and friendly. However, with so many visitors, they need more B&Bs. They don’t have any launderettes, either! We loved visiting…but next time, we would need to stay out of town.
Oh what a fantastic town. Think it’s a bit of a fave for me. The place was idyllic, all those lovely shops. Would be broke in 10 minutes. Really loved that thanks. Thanks,for taking me along. Please take care
Beautiful tour 😊
Thank you very much for this wonderful video. My wife and I are very enthusiastic about Corbridge. This lovely town will be a highlight of our planned tour of northern England.
Tommy from N.Germany
What a lovely film, thanks lads
Thanks for the breakdown! Just a quick off-topic question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
One of your very best. Particularly fond of your music choices on this❤the twilight ambiance is simply legendary! I'd love to see Corbridge leading up to Christmas🎄. One might call this village: Coooor-bridge! 😜 Thank you, Gents for yet another lovely visual feast.
This film gives a nice picture of the town, also the atmospheric images in the afternoon are beautiful!
Apparently the weather was cold and yes, then you are hungry, haha.
Thanks for the film.
Absolutely beautiful place, love all the olde world villages, vicars bar looks lovely and quirky, thankyou both
Another delightful visit with you both. Corbridge is packed with history, yet I would not want to live there. Too many tiny roads and too many tourists. Thanks for the peek and wonderful narration. XX
Having a base of operations while you visit an area is a great idea. It is also wonderful that such a beautiful and historic town is still going strong and doing well. Thanks for sharing.
My God! What a lovely and historic place! How good experiências! Thanks again!👏👏👏🙋🏻♀️🇧🇷
Went to the Valley indian from Newcastle central station on their ‘orient express’ train years ago. Like popping over to Corbridge
Lovely. Looking forward to Hexam, especially the abbey
Absolutely delightful. Enjoyed the history of the village. Thanks for taking us along.
Aw, Home Sweet Home! Lovely, the old place is still looking loved & handsome. Interesting you picked up on the Parking Issues – we were around when the parking was free, but folk used to complain it was hogged by some and untidy – so then ended up with the meters – pay & display…
I rather think a bar with Iced Water as the 1st thing you see might be the reason for the cool atmosphere!! Very interesting, many thanks – lots of new shops, but all looks good.
