Natasha absolutely hit the nail on the head when she said that we in the UK mostly don't appreciate what we have on our doorstep. That's certainly one of the reason's I watch these videos because the enthusiasm of both of you is making me appreciate the country more.

[@jsmithmultimediatech]

It took for me for theTour de France to really appreciate it, then since moving back to Ripon (where I was born) its amazing living here! Though literally speaking is about 10miles east of the Dales, is pretty close though, grew up here haha

[@susanford2388]

I have lived in 4 different countries & each one has something unique & breathtaking. When I lived in Athens I would drop the kids off at kindergarten & on my return home I would see the sun glisten off the Mediterranean. It was breathtaking. I love London, love the Thames as that was home to me as was Athens. Colombia was stunning. Germany's Garmisch Partenkirchen in the Alps. Our world is beautiful & we should all stop & appreciate it.

9:00 I lived in Australia for about 20 years....when i first came back to my place of birth (England) it was magical to me, I saw it as you guys see it, and i was trying to tell local people "oh wow, you live in such a beautiful place" and the English reply was always "but it rains all the time, why do you find it so beautiful?" And the other line was "why did you come back from Australia?" It is always difficult to explain to English people, that I came back for this, my home, where I feel happy:)

It may rain in England, but then that's perhaps why the place is so green. People complain about how it always rains in the Lake District too, but the response to that is: "Well all that water in the lakes has to come from somewhere!"

[@davidcross8028]

The real problem is that you have to leave to appreciate what you have left behind; welcome back. Of course the problem we have is that England is so perfect but tiny; this attracts people to want to come and live here, which in turn takes more and more away from us.

[@fossy4321]

The stone walls that you admired are called "Dry stone walls" as no mortar is used in their construction, the stones are selected to fit together and make a strong structure which will last for hundreds of years. Dry stone walling is a highly skilled profession.

On the rare occasions that the UK has a drought, the level in reservoirs sometimes drop to reveal the villages covered as the water level rose. The dry-stone constructions, walls and bridges remain intact and the mortared bits are reduced to rubble.

We were in the Yorkshire Dales this summer. It is as beautiful in reality as it is in the video. The three Peaks are breathtaking and the waterfalls!! The Stone Walls date back Centuries and the Stone Barns next to the walls are very old too. They are a iconic symbol of the Dales. To many a Yorkshire man/woman this is known as "God's Own Country " The Dales and Moors are well worth a visit. Even the villages and towns are centuries old. The Abbeys etc too.

Yorkshire has stunning countryside you can drive for miles through it so pretty 🇬🇧 some of our churches date back to the 12th century - a lot of our roads were first put in place by the Romans - USA is such a new country everything seems so modern there - you'll find dry stone walls everywhere in the countryside and even in the towns and cities - there are hundreds of picture postcard villages all over the UK 🌼

[@theinvisibleneonrainbowzeb2567]

The only snake I have seen in GB was a pet corn snake in a tank! I think that technically we do have a couple of snakes, small harmless grass snakes, and in some areas there are adders. But I have lived really all my life in Yorkshire, grew up in the proper countryside and never once seen a snake, nor have most other people i know. Maybe they have more down south but they aren't commonplace at all. No poisonous/venomous bugs or anything, no predators of humans (except occasionally other humans I guess), I think it is one of the safest places in the world in terms of no really dangerous flora and fauna, temperate climate, environment, super low risk of natural disasters. They call Yorkshire "God's own Country". You should certainly visit York, the N York Moors area, Yorkshire Dales, including some of the castles and towns with picturesque high streets and shops and tea rooms etc and stately homes along the way Some of the towns in the region you might wish to look into include Skipton, Harrogate and places like around Thirsk and Bedale and that area, the small market towns overlooked by ruined castles. Go to the coast and you have some beautiful spots along the Yorkshire coast, Whitby, Scarborough etc. Inland, from the Yorkshire Dales area you should stop by the city of Sheffield which has always had a good music scene and is a university city, in South Yorkshire, part of which (the city) falls within the Peak District National Park which is another stunning area you should explore, peak district, north derbyshire and sheffield. At this rate you'll be making 4 visits to the UK, one for each country! Seeing these walks brought back some memories! Oh and about thinking about the people who have walked where I have, or stood where I stood, thousands of years ago is something I do often think. Even out houses, I may be wrong but I have the idea that houses are mostly not old in the US? That a street full of houses from 120 years ago would be unusual? Or have I been misinformed? Near where I lived some years ago now, in a 100+ yr old terrace house there was the remnants of an old iron age earthworks fort on top of the hill. I used to stand there sometimes and think about all the different people who had definitely stood where I stood, within what was once a fort, at various times over thousands of years and wonder how much was different and how much the same. TL:DR Snakes super rare, very few. Yorkshire area is beautiful, God's own country. Try Peak District too, and Yorkshire coast.

With the water heavily airated making it hard to stay afloat and holes and caves eroded in the sides, anyone who falls in never gets out!

I’ve only seen one once and known only of one time f someone suffering a bite from one were his arm was outside his sleeping bag at night and the snake bit him which he didn’t know about as he was asleep at the time.

As a Yorkshireman this video was my favourite . Yorkshire is England’s biggest county so the is much more to see. . North Yorkshire Moors , Vale of York and the coastline .

Unfortunately they missed the prettiest town in Nidderdale which is Knaresborough. It’s a beautiful market town with stunning views of the River Nidd and its impressive viaduct where people hire boats to row under the viaduct. The views are from the beautiful gardens in the grounds of the 12th century castle ruin which lead you down to the riverside walk. There truly is a picture postcard scene around every corner including quaint alleyways of cobbled stones and homes from most periods of history. As for snakes, our only poisonous one is the Adder and they are very shy and their bite is no worse than a wasp sting apparently so not worth worrying about.

Yorkshire is also famous for it's literary geniuses, the Bronte Sisters lived in West Yorkshire, all of their books were based in Yorkshire as inspiration, 'Wuthering Heights' and 'Jane Eyre' to name just 2. Bram Stoker used Whitby Abbey and the dramatic coastline as inspiration for Dracula when he sailed into England. Lewis Carroll (Alice in Wonderland) used a carving found in the village church in Croft on Tees, N.Yorkshire for inspiration for the Cheshire Cat, Ripon Cathedrals carvings and crypt tunnel inspired some other characters and the rabbit hole also. James Herriot's hilarious books on being a vet in Yorkshire also turned into a tv series 'All Creatures Great and Small', the comedy tv series, 'Last of the Summer Wine' is based in Holmefirth, W. Yorkshire and 'Heartbeat' is set in Goathland, N. Yorkshire. I know these tv shows may not mean anything to you but the scenery is stunning if you manage to find time to watch a clip or two of any of these shows.

NB! Castle Bolton. Mary, Queen of Scots was held prisoner at Bolton for six months.[5] The story goes that she escaped and made her way towards Leyburn only to lose her 'shawl' on the way, hence the name ('The Shawl') of the cliff edge that runs westward out of Leyburn and is a well-known spot for easy walks with excellent views. After her defeat in Scotland at the Battle of Langside in 1568 she fled to England, posing a threat to the position of the Protestant Queen Elizabeth I. Mary was initially held at Carlisle Castle under the watch of Henry, 9th Baron Scrope, but Carlisle proved unsuitable and in July 1568 Mary was moved to Bolton.

[@DaveBartlett]

Though Bram Stoker included Whitby as one of the locations for his novel 'Dracula' - that hardly makes him a 'Yorkshire literary genius' - the guy was Irish. Stoker visited Whitby a few times around 1890, but never lived there. In fact Stoker spent more time in Scotland, Ireland (naturally) and even the USA than he ever spent in Yorkshire.

The thing is with places like the Lake district, its not just the scenery thats special, because places all over the world have stunning scenery, but to me what makes it special is that people for 1000's of years have called it home.

Ooh you really should check out Derbyshire and the Peak District. Absolutely stunning!!! And so in almost 40years of exploring the UK countryside I have seen one grass snake at a distance. It was only a few inches long and completely harmless. It's actually a real rarely so you are incredibly unlikely to come across one even if seaking them out. Also please try not to freak out about our stone circles, there is no evidence that sacrifice was anything to do with them and they tend to be in beautiful locations with the most peaceful atmospheres (The exception definitely being stonehenge which is so busy and managed it is a very different vibe). We are incredibly lucky to have such amazing glimpses of history and should treasure them. I wonder if the great pyramids would make you as uneasy? I really hope one day you get to experience them for yourself and feel the joy of connecting with your distant ancestors 💗 Kind wishes to you both and I look forward to watching you seeing more amazing places.

I think you made a really really good point when you said that some of us see this often and take it for granted. Only recently, since getting one of those little retro polaroid cameras (the one that spits out the image and it develops over a few minutes, (so cute)), have I actually taken a step back and thought - wow, some of us are very lucky to be near such natural beauty. So when it's a sunny day outside (especially because these old school instant cameras really love the sunlight🌞) I cant wait to go outside and snap a few shots. (they come out dream-like 😊) So yea, that resonates with me. Even before i even got into instant photos - Going outside on a nice day can just do so much for your headspace. TAKE HEED THESE WORDS, FOLK! Lovely video as always, ladies ps- dont get too close to The Strid, it really is extremely dangerous, and the sides I think can be quite slippery

Yorkshire dales are beautiful, haven't been there in ages, off to Portsmouth in a couple of days, so will send you a few pics :)

[@jedrick001]

My niece is landlady of the Board Inn pub in Hawes and many of my family live and work there. My nephew in the Wensleydale Creamery Shop. I grew up there and live an hour away now. Happy to drive you over the Buttertubs if you come 🤣🤣 The Dales is less commercial than the Lake District.

Natasha and Debbie, before you come over here it may be worthwhile joining the national trust, if you intend seeing a lot of their attractions it may save you money. I've just checked and you can join from the US.

[@lauciannailor8884]

I feel blessed to have been born and lived most of my life (except for work taking me away for a while), in Yorkshire. Its about 200 miles north of London (3-4 hours drive). I lived on the edge of the Dales and now live on the edge of the Moors, so feel I've enjoyed the best of both national parks. The Fewston & Swinsty reservoirs were my 'local walk' and I've been fortunate enough to visit all the places in the video you showed. I don't believe anyone can regret spending time in Yorkshire, whether its the national parks or villages/towns/citys.

[@weej840]

Another great one. The standing stones in the UK for me is more the age of them. They pretty much from the beginning of humanity. And I find that just simply mind blowing.

[@missjane9189]

I live in york! Always have, always will! I definitely appreciate my surroundings especially as I get older and try to show my kids all of Yorkshire’s beauty x

I'm from Scarborough which is Britain's first seaside resort ! , you should have a look at my town , Yorkshire is the greatest place on Earth , we have everything that's why we call it Gods own Country ! , Peace and Love guys !

[@northernstarr]

I love the Dales, I'm from Leeds which is right there near it & going into it all the time as a kid was everything. It really is a stunning place to visit and one of my favourite national parks. Anyway great vid xx

[@paulguise698]

Hiya Natasha and Debbie, if you look at the map of North Yorkshire where the dales are, you can see Whitehaven, where I live, now you's know where its at, I hope yall enjoyed this vlog I sure did, if you watch the youtube channel that'll do there's loads of Lake District vlogs on Paul's channel, this is Choppy in Whitehaven, Cumbria, United Kingdom

[@fayejackson9094]

I’m so happy you visited the Yorkshire Dales as I live about a 20 minute drive away so watching this video I’ve been to most of these places I love living here my husband grew up just on the edges of Wensleydale so he is a true Yorkshire man It is all as beautiful as it seems if not more so in person whether the sun shines or not ☺️

[@nickname6747]

I was dragged around most of these places as a child but didn't appreciate it. Do now as an adult; yes Yorkshire is stunning #God'sowncounty. Only snakes we have in the UK are grass snakes, smooth snakes and adders. None are particularly venomous and you would be staggeringly lucky to see one - never seen a snake in the UK in all my 47 years. Thanks for uploading ladies. 😎😁🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@jamgart6880]

I live just north of York on that map at the beginning. (Harrogate, Knaresborough area) It’s just beautiful here. I don’t think everyone (who’s lived here all their lives) appreciates it at much as they should. But I do understand if it’s all you’ve ever seen all your life, it can become boring (not everyone of course) But I grew up in different countries as my father was military. So I absolutely love it 😁 I walk fewston now and then. And we love climbing around Brimham rocks too! And fountains abbey! I’ve not been to the druids temple yet, but I remember friends from high school that used to go at night and scare the cr*p out of themselves 😁

[@BennyEggs...]

I moved away from Harrogate but visit regularly, I never appreciated it when I lived there.

[@vaudevillian7]

You should check out a video on Avebury, it’s my favourite stone circle and it’s a bit different as the village is inside the circle now. Hermits were a not uncommon thing in aristocratic estates

[@bobbralee1019]

I'm off there tomorrow morning from Cambridge to spend a few days in Richmond on business, seeing your reactions to what we have on our doorstep really helps make me more appreciative of what we have. Keep up the good work ladies.

Hey Ladies, Good to see you checking out 'Gods Country'. The Dales and Moors were my back yard growing up in York. Many weekend family trips were spent here although maybe as a young kid not appreciated as much as should have been!! But yes amazing scenery and pretty villages in the dales.

Yorkshire has some of the best walks especially the costal walk to Robin Hoods Bay which I personally recommend it! And Malham is a must place to go to! I did archaeological survey in that area! It was occupied for over 3,500 years until late medieval times.. There is over 75,000 archaeology sites...And there is NO Snakes in Yorkshire.

[@jonathanbamforth2325]

There are Grass Snakes and Adders but rarely seen although a number of years ago I was bitten by an Adder. My hand blew up like a boxing glove.

[@michellehardman50]

@@jonathanbamforth2325 Grass snakes in Yorkshire? I've never seen one once! Not suggesting you are.wrong.. Just don't. Particularly go out to fine any 😱but unsure of adders as the climate is bit to cool for them. they are mainly found down south. Ooow ouch that sounds really painful 😣

[@vaudevillian7]

Just to support Debbie’s point about the number of people that have historically walked in the same footsteps, the layout of my hometown - the centre at least - dates back the 1100s (same street names too), and there’s still plenty of buildings that were first built not too long after that relatively (like the church and castle). I know I had relatives here in at the least the 1640s during the English Civil War and probably earlier. Same with a battlefield down the road that I walk around a lot - it’s very picturesque and just farm fields now, but I found out fairly recently that I had three ancestors/relatives there too. There’s so much more history just locally I could ramble on about that it’s almost overwhelming when you think about it, but you can definitely feel it when you’re here - and it’s what I miss when I visit the US, although I love the place immensely- I’m sure you’ll both notice it too. The same is true of North America of course in terms of the footsteps of people over millennia (including some of my own ancestors and relatives too) but the scale is so big you don’t necessarily feel that everywhere.

[@grahamgresty8383]

There are 3 types of snake in England: the Adder (mildly poisonous), grass snake & smooth snake (very rare), the latter are constrictors. Suggest you check out the Forest of Dean (mostly west Gloucestershire)where we have the Black adder that regularly attacks people called Baldrick! We also have Beaver, wild boar and species of deer.

[@liamwild666]

I have just found your channel and am binge watching, love your videos and comments on the UK. I live in Leeds south of the Dales. I fly fish in the Dales every weekend in the rivers shown on the Video, I don't need to say how wonderful that is............. FYI a lot of the place names derive from the Vikings who settled in the Dales when they invaded the north, from York. Keep up the good work!

[@jonathanocallaghan9202]

As a proud Yorkshireman, I have to say you can't beat the Yorkshire Dales. England's greatest county.

[@dinerouk]

A large boast! And one, even as a Yorkshireman, I would be wary of uttering. They each have their fine points.

National Parks are areas of the UK that are protected from development, building etc. There are so many, and they are free to access unless across private land when it is up to the landowner.

[@gts2677]

I'm from Winterburn, just over the hill from Malham and have to say it's even more beautiful than the video..Gordale Scar is breathtaking, and you can even climb the waterfall if you're feeling adventurous.. Love your reactions, hope you get to York and Yorkshire soon

[@joeking6749]

‘The Strid’ (the river where you paused the video to talk about the many lives of people who’ve been there over the years) is an incredibly deep and dangerous river. The water gets pulled deep underground and many people have drowned there but also disappeared, sucked under the water, never to be seen again. As kids we were all scared of it. Now im 49 and am still creeped out by it! 😂

[@nizmollusk]

As a Leeds lad, the dales are just on my doorstep. I have done all these walks before, Ingleton waterfalls route is a particular favourite. Just 2 weeks ago I walked Malham Cove, wild camped overnight and then headed down to Gordale scar and had a morning swim there and in Janets Foss before heading home :) The water is cold in the dales, but refreshing. Yorkshire is a lovely county, we have dales, cities , historic places like York and of course a beautiful coastline as well. (I am a bit biased :D ) If you ever head over to Gods own country and would like a guide, feel free to ask on here, I and many other of your fans would happily show you our sights :)

the Strid on the Bolton Abbey estate in Yorkshire is just 17 miles away from where I live. It’s a lovely place to spend a summers day walking along the river and calling in at the Abbey shop for an ice cream.

Love watching your reactions videos - you both really came alive during this one! If you want a suggestion for another reaction, I'd be interested to see "The Pennine Way from the air" The Pennine Way is a 270 mile walk along the spine of England, which goes through several of the place this video has covered. I've walked it three times now and it never ceases to delight me - yes, it's a tough walk, but it gets into your soul. Keep up the great videos!

[@kaydenbanford]

I don't know how many videos there are about it but you guys should check out Norfolk. It's a really beautiful part of England, I may be biased saying that since I live here but I really do think you'd like it. Between stately homes, woodland and beaches there is so much to enjoy.

Yorkshire girl here from Wakefield. We're about an hour and half drive away from here and it is even more stunning than on film. Just beautiful. Have you looked at Hawarth (home of the Brontes) my great grandmother. Aunts and uncles lived here too. Such a beautiful place. So take a virtual tour around grassington, Appletreewick, ilkley, such gorgeous places. You would absolutely love it x
