Godric's Hollow

Godric’s Hollow is the West Country village where the Potters hid and where Voldemort’s Killing Curse rebounded. The ruined cottage, the churchyard with James and Lily’s grave, and Bathilda Bagshot’s house are all there. Harry and Hermione visit in the last book, and Nagini, disguised as Bathilda, is waiting.
