UK's Most Scenic Drive? Exmoor's Little Switzerland | England Road Trip Travel Vlog 27

Is this the UK's most scenic drive? The 21 mile drive dubbed 'Little Switzerland' in Minehead is the best way to get a taste of England in such a small amount of time hence us dubbing it Little England. From coastal views of the South West to English villages to the Valley of the Rocks, this makes it one of the UKs best driving roads. We started at the YHA in Minehead and made our way to Lynton to pick up a map first before heading out. This journey was a real stand out in our UK travel vlog series, Exmoor national park is as beautiful as it is varied.

About Travel Beans:
Welcome to the official Travel Beans KZread channel! On this channel, you’ll find a variety of travel and vlog content, in which you’ll see us in places like Thailand, Japan, USA, Slovenia, and more.
In 2017 we left home with just £500 in our bank account and a dream to make a sustainable full time travel lifestyle happen! We are now living our dream as digital nomads and want to inspire you to create your own story, whatever it may be!
After 5 years of aimless, yet enjoyable, backpacking around the world we found ourselves in New York City battling with depression. At this point, we decided to go home and confront this problem head on. After 6 tough months at home we decided to go away again, but this time with a goal in mind.. to turn travel into a lifestyle.
Our time spent battling depression has influenced our outlook on life dramatically! We are now travelling the world in search of what makes us happy. In our vlogs, we talk openly and honestly about our travel experiences, the digital nomad life and depression. We hope our videos can help to inspire you to create a life that makes you happy!

    Lynton is called ‘Little Switzerland’ mainly because of the architecture of many of it’s buildings.

    Lynton and Lynmouth is the main area known as Little Switzerland I believe. The route through from Lynton through the Valley of Rocks, Lee Abbey to Martinhoe is beautiful.

    “Little Switzerland” refers specifically to the town of Lynton, which has some chalet-style architecture, particularly along the main drag. Also, the houses cling to a fairly steep sided bowl-shaped valley.

    Hello, I am new to your channel, I am from Spain, a pleasure, I love your videos and the routes you do are impressive, how beautiful the United Kingdom is, I love doing routes through nature and fairytale villages. I also usually do mountain and sea routes along trails, if any of you come to Spain I can do some routes that I know, I hope my English is understood xD, since I am not a native but I am learning English.

    If you think this taste of Britain (UK for American viewers ) is beautiful and interesting, you should meet the British. The Beans are so beautiful and intelligent (Intreaguging, Intreaguging, intereauing, whatever) but of no comparison to the rest of the specimens of Britishness on our sceptered Isle. I know a bloke who can drink 14 pints in one session and eat 7 large pies with chips and mushy peas in one go.

    truly lovely stream, that. does Switzerland have trees, green grass and very narrow roads? perhaps that's where the Little Switzerland comes from? and, speaking as an Anglophile Yank, yes, indeed, English is pretty bloody epic! it's really called "The Valley of the Rocks"? someone couldn't come up with anything more original than that??? ha! I see, it's named that for the GEOLOGICAL bit. ok. and you didn't think the goats would poop rocks, did you, so that poo is to be expected. :-)

    That area was never covered in glaciation. The glaciation reached down to south Wales, and no further at its maximum extent. That area is also Devon, with part of Exmoor in Somerset. It is quintessentially Westcountry, unlike the rest of 'England'. From Cornwall.

    Excuse me!!!!! It is not the "Valley of THE Rocks" it's the "Valley of Rocks" with no "The" in the middle. I lived in Lynton, and spent a lot of time at the "Valley of Rocks". The Goats belong there, they are wild. They were getting closer because they thought you were a danger to their Kids. And by the way, if you scream like that on the top of Ragged Jack, you will be lucky not to be butted off the cliff by the Alpha Male goat and fall 800 feet to the sea. There are many beautiful drives and walks around my home, Exmoor. And when you make information videos, please get the information correct. There was no river, it was a GLACIER which formed the "Valley of Rocks" during the Ice Age!!
