Brilliant video. Thank you for sharing, sir.

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Thanks!

[@jmandreas5159]

Such cute architecture around there ! I love the small village vibe of these places

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

We loved it too. So quaint and charming

[@veloway]

this was my first view on this channel and I love it. WAY WAY better than most yammerheads. I searched for Shropshire and they cut straight to the chase. interesting and informative 😃

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Thanks for the lovely comment! Glad you enjoyed the video 😊

[@markjones3814]

Hi Luke and Tyler. I was born in the south Shropshire hills but now Louvre in London. The video is great and it reminds me and my husband of the trips we bake there to see family and the beautiful countryside. Mark and Adrian

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

It is a beautiful place! Thanks for the lovely comment 😊

[@richardevans6433]

Good job lads, great coverage of Shropshire, you even pronounced Shrewsbury just like the locals, seldom ever achieved by the BBC news coverage.

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Thanks so much, very nice of you to say! Loved our time there, would be nice to come back for a visit one day. Thanks for watching :)

[@Adam-hi4mg]

This is an excellent and well made video. I’m from Shropshire, it’s easy to take for granted how lucky we are to live here.

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

You live in a beautiful part of the country! Thanks for watching our video 😊

[@JJ-of1ir]

hi Luke, hope you manage to visit all the places you want to before your visa runs out. Enjoyed this video of yours especially as it reminded me of the many long weekend trips our family made from the south to visit our great aunt in Wem. We roamed the area, over the years and took in the places you looked at - and used it as a base to visit North Wales. Many happy memories. Thank you. Good luck to you both in your coming travels.

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Thank you very much for the lovely comment ☺️

[@michaelbarnes8912]

Im from the west Midlands but live in Telford. What you are showing in the video are amazing places and views. 👍👍

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Oh how cool! We worked at the hospital in Telford. Thanks, we loved our time in Shropshire. Glad you enjoyed our video ☺️

[@wongcw9011]

Thanks for this well made video! I used to study in Shrewsbury Technical College from 1972 to 1975 before I went to university in Manchester. As a student, I used to work in Berni Inns (The Criterion) in the High Street during weekends and summers. I enjoyed visiting the Flower Show held every summer in the Quarry! Shrewsbury is a very beautiful town with friendly people. Lots and lots of lovely memories. 💕💕

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Thank you so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed it! Shrewsbury a great town, we don’t live there anymore but very much enjoyed our time there. ☺️

@@LukeandTylerTravel I am living in Hong Kong but have returned to Shrewsbury a few times to visit my sister as she chose to settle down there after her study. Too many good old days memories!

[@karenkorycinski4177]

Thank You so much ! This is where my grandma is from and I live in the US . It’s on my bucket list to go there !! 😁

Hi Luke beauiful views and lovely river and lovely black and white houses and walks

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Thanks for watching! We love sharing beautiful places like this one

[@kevintimmons446]

Hi Luke, really glad you enjoyed living in the area. Great little video. Just for info for anyone visiting, Chester is actually the capital of Cheshire and has city status hence having a cathedral along with a university. Looking forward to seeing some of your future adventures.

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Thanks for the correction. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@robertmurray9514]

Great video guys. We’re lucky enough to live in Shropshire. In Church Stretton. Stunningly beautiful area it has the status of AONB an (AREA of OUTSTANDING NATURAL BEAUTY) it lives up to the title. Totally unspoilt. There are many other beautiful areas around Shropshire and although you say the city of Shrewsbury in your video, it doesn’t have city status.... yet. It should have as its a lovely friendly place.

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Haha that’s true. No cathedral 😅. Shropshire definitely is a beautiful part of England!

[@chrissie4505]

Lovely video!

As someone from the town, it’s pronounced Shrose bury.. Midlanders moved in and started calling it Shrews bury…

[@gerrylast]

Those pesky midlanders 😮

[@andymartin]

[@bennickss]

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Interesting…do you know why?

[@gerrylast]

For a reason perhaps?

[@petersanders8698]

4.42 Stokesay Castle

[@aquariusstarchild5156]

Hiya look up John Jessop he might explain more than I can on here. Did u got to boscobell house ? The oak tree there is very old and famous for being the hiding place of the Stuart king Charles 11 he hid in Shropshire to escape Cromwell's army .I live by the abbey where the monks hid the king .

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

So interesting! We’ll have to look it up as well

[@andystreet1479]

We got locum positions at the hospital there. We work as a physiotherapist and speech language therapist.

I live in Canada now but I'm originally from north of Wrexham. I'm moving back next year, and was so thankful to come on this video because Shrewsbury / Oswestry area is an area I'm thinking of. What is it like in terms of LGBT acceptance??

[@BenStimpsonAuthor]

and hello from Kitchener, Ontario! :)

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Hey! We really liked the Shrewsbury area. There is a nice local LGBT community there. They have a Shrewsbury LGBT History Festival which is quite nice.

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Nice! Tyler is originally from Toronto

[@BenStimpsonAuthor]

@@LukeandTylerTravel it's always nice to have insider knowledge rather than just tourist visions. Thankyou for this!

[@jonathanneale427]

Shrewsbury is a town.

[@itaintalfot]

IE, Not a City

[@gerrylast]

I think it only fair to say that Shropshire came out in bottom position on my website a few years back. True my site at the time was arguably the most comprehensive listing of free attractions in England, but it involved contacting various bodies, tourist boards, councils, etc, and Shropshire came out at the very bottom across the whole of England. I am more than happy to show any member of the tourist board or county council why they came out bottom, even if they do not wish to explain why they were so lax in replying to my emails and telephone calls at the time. I should point out that this was all pre COVID so that should not be used as an excuse😊

[@SpeedBird001]

Shrewsbury is not the West Midlands,.... .

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Oh yes, you’re right, my mistake. I was trying to think of a word that describes the whole region that Shropshire is in, but I agree West Midlands is not that word! Thanks for watching and catching that ☺️

[@SpeedBird001]

@@LukeandTylerTravel no worries :) Great video though !! BTW- any suggestions on great pubs / pub food that you can recommend in Shropshire from your travels ?

[@LukeandTylerTravel]

Unfortunately most of our time in Shropshire was during COVID lockdown so we didn’t really get a chance to explore a lot of pubs

[@cleopatrabrown6662]

Shrewsbury / Shropshire are actually part of the West Midlands region :)

[@markbaker465]

It is actually part of the West Midlands *region*, just not the West Midlands *county*. Easy to get mixed up, but it's definitely quite right to say it's in the West Midlands, which is exactly what was said in the video. The thing that was actually a slight mistake is calling Shrewsbury a city, but we'll forgive you! :)
