Castle Combe is a picturesque village in Wiltshire, England, located about 12 miles northwest of the city of Bath. Often referred to as one of the prettiest villages in England, it is characterized by its honey-colored Cotswold stone cottages, charming streets, and quaint atmosphere.

The village's centerpiece is the Market Cross, a medieval stone structure that dates back to the 14th century. Castle Combe is also home to a 13th-century church, the St. Andrew's Church, which features a stunning medieval stone pulpit and impressive stained glass windows.

Castle Combe has been used as a filming location for several movies and TV shows, including the 1967 movie "Doctor Dolittle" and the 2011 movie "War Horse". Visitors can also enjoy a range of activities in the village, such as visiting the Castle Combe Circuit, a famous motor racing circuit, or exploring the scenic countryside on foot or by bike. There are also several pubs and restaurants in the village serving traditional English fare, as well as a handful of quaint shops selling local crafts and souvenirs.
