[@springg1402]

Watching From Wingate ,NC .USA I Hate so Badly to see modern Buildings built where such Beautiful Buildings used to stand. It's so Sad to see History wiped away for something I could see Here in the States.

[@verodunstan7864]

Good afternoon Robin! I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina.

[@cannyexplorer5357]

Watching from a South Devon village that’s being destroyed by multiple housing developments on farm land. Our Tawny Owls are no more due to trees and hedgerows being cut down.

[@argentinagalos6205]

Among other things,I tremendously enjoy the RP pronunciation of the narrator,the pure,nouaced flow of the language which shows education and scholarship ! Thank you,Robin ,you are the hightlight of my week !

[@RS-Sum777]

I am watching you from a small town in Alabama, USA. I love your channel and enjoy the narration especially. Thank you for showing us your beautiful country. I so enjoy your History. 😊

[@RandyMoore-rn1zv]

Watching from Saint Louis, Missouri.

[@Parianparlay]

I love the way you always say “Come with me.” With your gentle demeanour and interesting facts about the wonderful places you visit, your channel is so calming I’m so looking forward to our mentioned films of the ancient houses! Xx

[@helenbailey8419]

[@MyMags8]

I’m British watching from Southern California, the Cotswolds is where I dream of living in my later years. Thank you for these perfect videos, I’ve watched many of them repeatedly 💖

[@cannyexplorer5357]

Can’t wait for the book. Love strolling through the pages of a book.

[@marthamorris3174]

Greetings from Spring Hill, FL. We enjoy traveling the highways and byways of the Cotswold area. Thank you for the time spent coordinating the materials and videos that make your show exceptional! 9:06

[@GrumpyScotsman]

I did not get the chance to watch it yesterday, but Robin and the gang have made my Monday a lot more pleasurable. A thank you for showing country villages and homes set in the lovely countryside, and also for pointing out the carnage to rives and streams that local water companies are doing. The Cotswold Explorer is fast becoming my weekly go-to place for a bit of calm in a mad world, showing places I would not get the chance to visit.

[@Mark723]

What Ho, Gizmo and Widget!

[@MyNextShotWontMiss]

I hope you Brits are able to hold onto these places. As a foreigner, it hurts me to see what's happened to places like London and Birmingham.

[@katrinag2623]

Wonderful as always. I learn so much. Watching from Virginia but loving the Cotswolds, the literature, and the pups. ...and thank you for alerting us to WASP. What a shame that human greed is at the root of so many problems. Hopefully WASP and nature can prove more resilient with time. Looking forward to the book!💙

[@katrinag2623]

...And thank you for alerting us to WASP. What a shame that human greed is at the root of so many problems. Hopefully WASP and nature can prove more resilient with time.

As badly as I wish to go there and visit, I’m happy to watch and learn, visiting vicariously through these beautiful videos, and leave the residents in peace. The Cotswold Explorer does an exemplary job of allowing me to visit without getting in the way. While I cannot promise that I’ll NEVER visit the Cotswalds, if I’m ever honored enough to do so, it will be done with the greatest respect and quiet humility, unobtrusively and with deep gratitude.

[@jimmylowe]

Hello from Texas! I really enjoy all of your videos.Thank you!

[@BostonRobb]

Watching from Salem Mass, thank you for taking the time to talk about our precious resources & the self policing of these companies that can only be held accountable when the communities come together to take a stand. Much respect. And thanks for showing us around.

[@aariley2]

OMG! I am so sorry about your water! They have ruined most of our natural water here too.

[@ValeryFarrington]

What a beautiful image of your two dogs. Thank you so much for your wonderful entertainment. Best love. Valérie

[@andyconnolly28]

Liked, loved and subbed. I grew up in the Cotswolds happy memories. keep up the great work..

[@BiornBear]

You need to petition your lawmakers to change that law because that isn’t just outrageous but also dangerous.

[@annetaylor4089]

So very quaint! Thank you for exposing these hidden gems to those too far away to see them in person.

[@taybak8446]

Of all the KZbin video creators you have the most class. Everyone else asks the viewer to hit the like button even before we watch the video, but you on the other hand make no such demands. I think that speaks to your good breeding and taste. Watching you speak gives me great pleasure and the added comfort that this world still has grace and chivalry. Thank you

[@TheCotswoldExplorer]

Thanks for your kind words and I am delighted you enjoy the channel. Keep watching. Robin

[@jamesfoley6555]

Thank you, your vlogs are priceless and I appreciate the work, yourself and Ross put into them🙏✝️🙏🇨🇦

[@jessicamiroortiz7917]

[@elizabethannegrey6285]

Watching this delightful series from South Africa.Much appreciated.

[@margaretgaby2356]

I love the music, buildings etc!

[@melanieellsworth792]

I almost missed it ,I will rewatch when it's finished .My apologies Hello from Bristol, Connecticut!!!!

[@KaerriRainshadow]

Ive paused my watching to visit Windrush's website and contribute what I can. I hope you can bring your lawmakers, and then your water companies, to see reason and start caring for the land instead of exploiting it. Now to return to your lovely tour! Thank you, Robin and all involved, for sharing the beauty of the Cotswolds with those of us who may never get the chance to see it in person.

[@TheCotswoldExplorer]

@kaerriRainshadow good to hear from you. This has now become a national issue and the scandal of the water companies greed is under serious investigation. Thank goodness. Thanks for watching. R

[@plain_me]

Your tours are the most intimate & moving I've ever watched. Makes tears come to my eyes. Won't be too long before I get to Come over and BE there. Thank you 🙏🏻 Western USA

[@plain_me]

P.S. We will ride bicycles walk as much as possible. Shhhh!

[@keziahlimbu5220]

I live in Swindon but I fell in love with Cotswold. One day my wish to move in Cotswold. me and my husband always wondering around the Cotswold area since 2 years. Even yesterday we went to see snowshill and had our dinner at the burton on the water. And I’m nonstop watching/searching history of Cotswold 😊😊

[@WranglerRunner1]

Watching from Massachusetts, USA. Visited the Cotswolds on my honeymoon in 19’ and hope to return. 🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@vickirobinson9185]

I am enjoying this series from Georgetown Texas. Born in Swindon Wiltshire and have visited the Cotswolds on each of my travels back to lovely England. Thank you for the beautiful views and historical information. Oh to be a little mouse in your pocket and travel these roads with you!

[@carolbulmer8253]

Beautiful… thank you❤️❤️

[@joaoalbertodosanjosgomes1536]

❤❤

[@ValeryFarrington]

Really professional and, friendly, and informative....V.

[@shahjhanhaider26]

It's beautiful video

[@malcolmrichardson3881]

A very interesting and enjoyable tour of the Cotswolds. I share your anger at the appalling, polluting Thames Water and have made a donation to WASP in support of its campaign.

[@LETTYONLY1]

Adore this channel ❤ I’m from up the road in Yorkshire 😊

[@ValeryFarrington]

Yes, do take your Lady to this beautiful place. You really must....best love, Valérie.. living in Madeira. And before, Algarve.. best love V.

[@forestgreen916]

CLEAR, COLD SPRINGS : )

[@sonofsaloman1940]

Amazing narrator sir continue and spefial thanks

[@zombiediscosounds2614]

Please do a reading of watership down, your voice is perfect 🥰

[@johnjanland4788]

Love the Australian Hat. JML

[@QuBoadicea69]

Having watched your other videos, including the one in which I believe you first mentioned starting a protest organization regarding dumping of pollutants into beautiful Cotswold waters, I am likewise outraged! I will be happy to donate something via the site you mentioned. I salute you for taking action like this. How amazingly bizarre that the Thames Water company has decided it’s perfectly legal to befoul your community’s water. They may as well go back to legalizing arsenic in your wallpaper such as they did in Victorian England mostly out of ignorance! They don’t have the “ignorance” excuse for this, though, do they! ~Linda, in Montana USA

[@TheCotswoldExplorer]

Hi Linda. No excuses it's true. Happily since we made that film the Thames Water failings have become national news and for the last week this terrible situation has been all over the newspapers and television here in the UK. Sometimes it's worth having a crack at these things. Thanks for watching. Robin

[@gerrywatkins846]

Hi Robin, Brilliant and very interesting videos keep up the great work ,have a great weekend

[@TheCotswoldExplorer]

Thanks Gerry. And the very same to you. Thanks for watching. Robin

[@jonathangilmore3193]

I totally agree with your sentiment that “under any circumstance” a water company has the ungenerative legal “right” to release untreated water. The environment should not have to pay the price for corporate failures to treat water by an entity whose raison d’etre is potable water. What a calumny!

[@melanieellsworth792]

I ment a few minutes from Farmington I'm in bristol.I typed faster than my thoughts. Lol I'm showing my age.

[@jadeddragon9407]

The right to have pure clean waterways should be a basic right in law as fundamental Human and animal right, it astounds me that it is in fact not, what is that old song "when will we ever learn when will we ever learn" We really need to look at alternative ways of treating this waste... so glad that you have mention this continued outrageous behaviour.

[@cyankirkpatrick5194]

Just out of curiosity, isn't there a ordinance/s to prevent such over development to any small town/ village's such as this beautiful place.

[@cyankirkpatrick5194]

In some parts of the USA there's ordinances that they have to comply to the historical look of a places or building. Most of these just need a re paint of the building's and it's just perfect, but that's just me.

[@DaveThundercloud]

How is everyone today?

[@forestgreen916]

WE HAVE RAIN !

[@ValeryFarrington]

Apologies, forgot to say from where I am listening and watching.... Well. I live in Madeira.🌝 valérie .

[@chrissammels5444]

I do ponder on whether any of the owners/custodians of those beautiful, but expensive Cotswold properties, have shares in Thames Water. No matter how hard we look, we can’t always see the real picture.

[@joaoalbertodosanjosgomes1536]

My best to Gizmo. I 👍 hot-dogs.

[@cynthiastogden7000]

Very sorry about the water pollution. Here in Cornwall we have South West water. I am not terribly impressed with them either.

[@plain_me]

Wasp? Cool. I'm not it. Keep trying. It will work.

[@alexhaywood9706]

Water tainted is too choke out the life there.
