‘Most lovely place in UK’ slammed as ‘hellhole’ and ‘nook of nothingness’

A UK village usually hailed as probably the most lovely spot within the nation has been branded a “tourist-flooded hellhole” by a TikTook creator.

Castle Combe within the Cotswolds, the one UK village to characteristic in Conde Nast’s checklist of the world’s finest final month, was criticised by the consumer named Philc84 who described it as a “corner of nothingness.”

Phil claimed the realm was overrun by vacationers and rich Londoners in search of to “live the simple life”. He stated: “The worst place to live in the UK? Well this is in with a shout, Castle Combe, allegedly the most beautiful place in the country.”

He added: “But because of its beauty it’s a tourist-flooded hellhole. Christ only knows what this place is like in the height of summer. This corner of nothingness is condemned to tourists forever more looking for grid photos. I swear to you there is nothing here and yet there is still a coach park.”

He cheekily warned viewers “not to get too excited” in regards to the village’s prime points of interest listed on Google, which included Doctor Doolittle’s home from the Nineteen Sixties movie, its church which he stated was “just like any other church in the country” and its Market Cross which he described as “a bit s***”.

He added: “A few of the residents cash in on the tourists, selling their wares from the front of their houses, while the rest of them just have to suffer in silence. To be honest I don’t think I have any sympathy, who the hell moves here? It would be like living inside one of the immersive experiences at Disneyland.”

He went on to say he knew villages in Cornwall, Wales, Cumbria and Scotland that have been extra “beautiful.” But he advised viewers he wouldn’t title them to maintain them secure from vacationers.

Viewers of the viral TikTook seemingly agreed with Phil’s takedown of the realm, with some alleging it was “similar” to many different locations within the Cotswolds.

Another TikTook consumer claimed one of the best a part of the realm was the “circuit down the road, and even that usually has rubbish events on”. A 3rd consumer claimed they have been caught pumping water out of their grandmother’s dwelling as the realm is vulnerable to flooding.

Others have been left considerably shocked by Phil’s feedback, with one writing: “My parents took me when I was little and I honestly don’t remember there being too many tourists. There is some really nice scenery.”
