What a beauty! This is a real gem! You know how much I love these little villages, for their simplicity and historical value. I 😍 stone and stone buildings and nothing can be compared to these gorgeous houses. I'd stay there for a day or two, maybe a week to explore the whole village and their way of life.
What have surprised me is their way of selling their products. As you said, honesty! If you do that here, in a few minutes they would stole not only the products, but the baskets and everything you put outside the gate.
You have no idea how much I appreciate these posts, as I get to travel and see the world, that part of the world that is not so popular and less visited by many. Those are the real gems! Thank you!! 😍
There's a 15th century house on Church Street that is a pub and has accommodation, I read the reviews (not that I was planning to stay there) and wasn't too impressed, seems like they were milking tourists! But other than that, it's a nice place to stay.
Honesty is a rather difficult to find virtue nowadays, and that's so sad. The things they sell aren't expensive, and are probably old stuff they don't need at home or home grown excessive fruit and veg, but its the whole ethos that matters.
Glad you enjoyed the post @erikah
That's a big disappointment. You go there in good faith, enjoying what the village has to offer, then you find out they are milking you and the situation. That is not nice! I thought that can only happen in my country.
