Castle Combe

Castle Combe was one of the highlights of our trip. Somehow Jeff and Cindy knew of this little village on the way back from Bath. So we turned onto a quaint little windy, tree lined road called "The Street" and ended up here. We just walked around the quiet antique village and took some pics and enjoyed a slice of banana bread by the banks of this little river shown in a picture here. It was such a cozy little town and very relaxing to sit there on the bench along the banks and soak in the sun.







This was in the front of a little church there in Castle Combe where (obviously) they had some grave sites for various influential people from centuries ago. This whole town was just really cool. I had a hard time narrowing down which pictures to include.

Stacie dropping a post card in the mail for the kids.

And the bread store in Castle Combe. We dropped a few pounds in the slot in the door and had a nice mid morning snack. The old buildings here were so neat and so old. It was neat to see a whole village like this preserved. If you're ever in the neighborhood, some of the cottages are avaiable to rent for a weekend getaway.
