Several years ago my wife and I, with two grandsons, made an afternoon visit in this beautiful and charming town. There were also a couple bus loads of Japanese visitors which made the visit a little surreal as by far the largest number of people on the streets, and in the shops and restaurants of this very English village were Asian. They were lovely people (as were the locals) and it made for one of our most memorable days in England.
Your photos have captured my own memory of this town.

Castle Combe has always been a favorite of mine when we are in England. However the last time we were in Castle Combe it was absolutely overrun with tourists. And many of the fabulous shops selling lovely woollen goods are now selling tshirts.

Lovely to see how much it meant to you- I was lucky enough to be born and grow up in the Cotswolds so all the lovely features are so familiar to me! Grateful to have many delightful memories of visits to all the local beauty spots - thanks for sharing yours!

I remember seeing these streets in films. I just love the look. I truly want to visit there some day. Thanks for sharing.
