Thank you, what an awesome tour. I am 88 and permanently living in a nursing home in East Texas. With a lot of free time on my hand. This was a real treat for me! I visited And toured London in June, 1981. Loved every moment of it . i have also been interested in the Royals since 1952: as my oldest son was born in MARCH OF THAT YEAR.THE year of Queen’s Coronation. I knew nothing of the history of this castle. 😅I sincerely thank you for the historical tour and lectures!
Oh man. ❤lady you are my inspiration. you are 88 years young. I love that you use RUclips can navigate the Internet. Living in a nursing home and still have a grateful and young heart. I really want to be like you at that age. ❤
@@harmony3395 You can only visit the Ballroom inside but you can make a nice walk through the park and go along the Dee River...it's a wonderful place.
I was lucky enough to go on a tour when I was in the military stationed in Germany. My grandfather sounded about the same as this gentleman. Over the years in the US, he lost some of it. I never got tired of listening to him telling me stories about Edinburgh.
Thank you, it was so lovely today to see where the Queen has spent her final days. We miss her already. We mourn with The Royal Family and Great Britain at this time. Saying Hello from Australia. When I retrace my ancestry in Scotland I will be sure walk one of these trails at Balmoral.
Nice wee video. I visited a few years ago and fell in love with Balmoral. Such a gorgeous setting and peaceful. The grounds are gorgeous and the trees are amazing! I could definitely live there too if I had the chance. Thank you.
Beautiful place, I can see why Queen Elizabeth II enjoyed it so much. The lay of the land reminds me of where I live in Oregon state USA. Condolences to all regarding the News of the Queen today.
It is so wonderful that there are a lot of trees near the castle ,some of the trrees seem to be from other mainlands and make the overall setting so spellbindingly pretty !!!
Today is a sad day as Queen Elizabeth has passed away here at age 96, this day September 8, 2022. Thank you so much for providing a glimpse of the place she so dearly loved. Blessings to you.
Thank You. Wish we could see the inside as it is now. Last evening I watched a few documentaries about Balmoral and how Queen Victoria decorated it inside. Wonder 9f it has changed much or not at all. The movie Mrs. Brown is excellent. I plan to watch ot for my 3rd time in the next few days.
We visited Balmoral last year. There is so much wonderful history here and I have read a lot about it and seen pictures,but to be there was just fabulous. I am an American,born in England , with Scottish blood in my DNA , AND I just loved it. Truly a dream come true.
Another American here from Illinois, beautiful grounds and trees leading up to the castle. I can understand why the Queen loved Balmoral so much. What a peaceful place to live in. I don't enjoy living like a sardine or little fish on a tin can, but I'm not royal. Beautiful video also & I love the accent of the narrator. I did see the movie about John Brown it was excellent.
What a lovely place! I never expected this castle to have such lush green forests and gardens and even mountains? surrounding it...The whole place has a secluded and restful feel to it, but remains stately ...No wonder The Queen loved spending her time here...She probably didn't have many opportunities to be out in nature and have some privacy. RIP Your majesty. Your 70 years of tireless public service will forever be remembered!
I'm leaving on a trip to the UK October 1st 2022. Will start in London and end in Edinburgh. I sure to enjoy some goreous scenery. My last time in the UK was back in 1988, so it's been quiet some time.
I can see why the Queen loved this location. Thank you for the video. I've only ever seen a photo of the castle and never realized how much the surrounding area is like the woods and meadows of western Oregon (USA). I'm glad she had a place to retreat to each year... to leave behind most of her daily responsibilities and the noise of the city. Miss her already. God bless the Queen and God save the King. - With love from America
Is no one else asking what she died of ??? I’m Scottish 🏴 and I also live where she died in beloved Scotland, where she rests in Edinburgh. I don’t know about anyone else- but it strikes me her sudden death Doesn’t make sense - how she died 48 hours after being seen so healthy. She also was in great form at weekend with guest Rev Iain Greenshields for lunch on Saturday and dinner on Sunday. He gave her a wooden cross as he departed. Which she accepted. Then she worked Tuesday reviving old and new PM…/!:The she’s suddenly dead. No cause Of death nothing. All very fishy. What did she die of. Why no hospital intervention. What are we not told what she died of. Mobility issues don’t kill you in 48 hours!!! Anyone know anything about this ??? With Thanks x
@@AyeWitness The dear lady was 96 increasingly frail & doing less. Some are saying The Queen had bone cancer, maybe her majesty did & did not want it talked about. May peace of mind rest with everyone.
Beautiful, peaceful place. I’d sit by the river every chance I had.. No wonder the Queen stayed there for months. And yes, the movie Mrs. Brown was very good!
Lived in Banchory for 5 years and drove past Balmoral many times, on the way to lovely hikes, seen the Highland games and around the loch where the Queen Mother had a residence. What great memories of Scotland and he friends we made.
Having seen this, I understand why Queen Elizabeth loves it so much. Balmoral is so special! I love youtube because I get to see places like this, places I will never see in person. You can't help but wonder what the castle looks like inside. I will bet it is awesome. What a life that family has lived. I hope their hearts are worthy of it. I know I would love it....
I hear you LOUD AND CLEAR about places that you'll never see in person. It takes A LOT OF MONEY and the vast majority of us Americans can't and won't be able to afford the trip.
All right with the view of the outside/the terreines of the castle but this has not much interest to visitors I believe, but what about the inside? You did not show anything!, and that was what I - and millions of people - would very much have seen and that was a pity. Thank you anyway
My maternal great grandmother was born at Balmoral ca. 1841 before Albert bought it. Her father was a gamekeeper. She turns up in Nova Scotia in the 1861 census.
Her Majesty has lovely homes and we visited this one in the early 80’s. We even got to see HRH at the Highland Games along with Charles and Diana and other Royals
Very nice tour. I visited more than 40 years ago, in that time you could only see the castle through the gates and then visit the Kirk the Royal family goes to. Beautiful scenery.... .
BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY. WESTERN COUNTRIES ARE STILL THE MOST BEAUTIFUL N QUALITY THAT ASIAN NEED TO LEARN MORE N NOT JUST PRODUCED QUANTITY. WESTERN COUNTRIES BELIEVED IN QUALITY WHEREAS ASIAN ARE MORE ON QUANTITY THAT EVENTUALLY CAUSING UNNECESSARY HARDSHIP TO THEIR OWN CITIZENS.
Thank you for this tour I would love to visit one day. I can see now why the queen loved it at balmoral so much. It was the only place she had a sence of freedom. Loved our queen elizabeth II ❤
I think the Scottish countryside is beautiful. Unfortunately, the closest I will ever come is to it is through my Cairn Terrier. I loved this tour of the grounds. Thanks so much!
Cette vieille dame a eu la chance d'avoir une fin de vie confortable, dans un cadre magnifique. Pendant la psychose covidiote, nos anciens, bâillonnés, terrorisés, enfermés dans des EHPAD inhumains, injectés de force, privés de visites familiales, ont subi une torture morale et psychologique que je ne suis pas prêt d'oublier ! C'est à ces personnes enfermées, méprisées et mortes dans la solitude vont ma compassion et mes prières...Stop à la dictature sanitaire et à l'abrutissement des peuples, prémices de l'instauration du Nouvel Ordre Mondial !
Such a beautiful place, Scotland is so beautiful and green so much history too. My paternal Grandfather was born and raised in Scotland. I’ve never been but I would love to come visit one day.

Hi Penny!
Hope you are well.
🌷
Godspeed 🕊
Apparently much of the interior is kept as it was decades ago. It sits on something like 50,000 acres.
All the best.
You are most welcome.

I saw Balmoral Castle this summer..what a wonderful and magic place. The Queen loved it so much.
Can you actually go inside Gloria ?
@@harmony3395 You can only visit the Ballroom inside but you can make a nice walk through the park and go along the Dee River...it's a wonderful place.
Why is it called bal moral?
Is it a Scottish name, old name?

hi me old mate
Balmoral is beautifully scenic and the trails bring out the beauty of the forest.
yip
I love that Prince Albert introduced Germanic architectural features to Balmoral. My days, Germany still has the most beautiful castles in the world!
I’m an American, but I loved and respected the Queen. Her beautiful smile and kind heart will be missed the world round.
I agree. I think she was a amazing person. May she rest peacefully 🕊️🌹
You need to visit balmoral its magical
It's easy to see why the Queen loved Balmoral.
Thank you for your kind words about our beloved, late Queen. ❤🇬🇧🇺🇸
Thank you. Would love to visit one day
What a beautiful piece of land, thank you for taking the time to show this to us, I’ve always been curious about Balmoral.

The Scottish countryside has to be the most stunning in the UK , it’s on my bucket list ❤️
Wales is also beautiful.
I too have it on my bucket list. I want to lie in the heather.
Wales, Ireland, Devon & Cornwall are all beautifull, as is the Lake District.
It is wild, and breathtaking. Make sure to travel through Glencoe and up to Arrochar if you can. Greetings from Cape Town 💐
If you can be sure to go to Shetland. A most gorgeous place and unique scenery
Sehr schoenes Ort. Kein Wunder, dass Queen es so liebte.

hi Rachel
Thank you so much for this. It was even more enjoyable than an inside tour.
I enjoyed this video very much! I'm an American and I know I will never get to see lovely places like this. Thank you so much for the wonderful tour.
Go see the Adirondack park’s in upstate NY, nothing like it in the world!
Never say never! Keep dreaming!
Same.. I'll never get there either. Certainly is beautiful country! Enjoyed watching..
Such a beautiful place to visit. You honestly feel like you're stepping in the footsteps of past Royals.
Lovely, thank you
Great video. Wish these places would let one video inside, for those who probably never get the chance to go there.
I hear what you are saying but it is her private residence.
Lovely and poignant to see the World's beloved Queen's home of her soul and were she found everlasting peace.

No wonder the Queen stayed there for months.
And yes, the movie Mrs. Brown was very good!

That is amazing and what a great family connection to have with the area.
Thank you.
Her Majesty's soul resides here in such a beautiful place while she will rest in peace at home in Windsor castle. RIP 🙏
Her Majesty has lovely homes and we visited this one in the early 80’s. We even got to see HRH at the Highland Games along with Charles and Diana and other Royals
Glad to hear that you managed to visit it.
@@edinburghcabtours you do know these psychopaths you hold in such high regard are murderers of children don’t you ?
I visited around that time ad a child with my family still have the photos. We paddled in the river Dee !
Quite good houses for someone on benefits
@@spellbound4383 she passed in the same castle, I’d be glad if I got to experience the peace there.
thank you for this video. now we get to see the place where the Queen spent her last days.
QUEEN 👸 ELIZABETH II ❤ BALMORAL
DIED IN HEAVEN SPACE FULL OF MYSTERY & LONG LASTING HISTORY
A MAGICAL LAND
😇 NOW!
I wonder if anyone thought to paint or draw the original castle? It would nice to see it, if it exists.☺️
Thanks for the tour!
This is beautiful I would just love to go fishing all day on that river. Thank you 🥰🇨🇦❤️
I enjoy listening to a man with the Scottish accent.
RIP Your Majesty. Thank you for your 70 years of inspirational service. You will remain admired but will be greatly missed.
Thank you for the tour it’s a gorgeous place the castle is magnificent 👍👍👍👍
Enjoyed this wonderful video of beautiful Balmoral Castle , very informative....such an amazing place . Thank you from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦

I agree - it wasnt really in keeping with the grandeur of the video either.
What a beautiful place, would like to visit , I'm in Africa,,
Thanks for showing me
This was so beautiful. I understand why The Queen loved this place.
love you Karen
I can now understand why Her Majesty loves this place so much, its beautiful like most of Scotland.
No wonder she loved it so much. I wonder why it doesn't seem to have a telepad. I understand it's a long journey, I would be in a hurry to get there!
What a lovely place. I'd love to see the inside!
Wishing someday I visit this place and country. Tour. Wishing someday I travel. What beautiful place to travel.
may God take the Queen into heaven and God Bless the King😀
Such a beautiful place, Scotland is so beautiful and green so much history too. My paternal Grandfather was born and raised in Scotland. I’ve never been but I would love to come visit one day.

I Can Why The Queen Loved This House. It's Beautiful
Wrong tittle, should have been “the grounds of Balmoral”
My mother's mother is Irish, my mother wants to visit Ireland and Scotland and England, she loves those countries and wants to leave America!
Enjoyed this video! I can definitely see why she loved it there! It’s beautiful!
There's a wildness to it. Beautiful.
Looks fabulous. I love the outdoors ❤️
