Hi everyone,

I’m planning a trip to the UK and I am completely obsessed with the "Midsomer Murders" aesthetic. I’m looking for recommendations on areas or specific villages to visit to truly experience those vibes.

To be clear: it doesn’t actually have to be the exact filming locations (though that's a bonus!). I’m more interested in capturing the overall atmosphere:

• Charming, smaller villages with thatched roofs, stone cottages, and beautiful parish churches.
• Cozy, traditional pubs with good food, local ale, and a roaring fire (or a nice beer garden if the weather allows).
• Great countryside walks/footpaths right on the doorstep, where you can wander through fields and rolling hills.

I want to avoid the massive tourist hubs and instead find those slightly quieter, quintessential English countryside spots where time moves a bit slower.

Which regions or specific villages should I base myself in to get the ultimate cozy, rural British experience?

Thanks in advance for any tips!
