As much as I love French chateaux and hotels particuliers there's nothing which can compare to an English country house. And there are so many!!! From Chatsworth to Blenheim Palace and Althorp House...the absolute beauty of the decor, furniture, paintings, architecture, landscaping and all the rest make for beauty par excellence. Thanks for this glimpse into greatness and magic!!!
That is because everything in Great Britain and Ireland is pastiche architecture. It’s all stolen from Italy and thus via French architecture. The English really didn’t grow architecturally in any original way from the Tudor period. They sort of stopped with Dutch influences by the 1600’s. Then it was all theft from Europe. That is why they often are so theatrical. Not to mention far too large.
I disagree! I find French architecture far too theatrical! English Architecture is much more restrained and elegant! Think Christopher Wren and Lutyens are just two examples!
Fantastic! How wonderful to have the original drawings. The excellent condition of the art, furniture, and textiles is a thrill to see. So much beauty like this has been long destroyed.
Living in Canada is So boring - after viewing yet another English Country House with beautiful Gardens. So old, so much History, Architecture, Art, Furniture ---ughhh. What a great Vlog.
This is so amazing! It’s mind blowing 1 year ago I found on a DNA test I was related to them! I was mind blowed. It’s sad I don’t live near them it’s amazing this family Carried on longer than Queen Elizabeth the first in the 1400s, my family lasted in the 1200s it’s so cool to Learn about it,
HM The King aside, David Cholmondeley makes the current members of the Royal Family sound like urchins! This is not a criticism in any way; in fact, I find the Marquess's voice very soothing!

For the most part, it’s because they are lived in.

All of them STOLEN when "Whites" Overthrew the Original Black Moorish Natives!!!! 1745-1918
Whomever selects the music for these charming and enchanting vignettes.. is absolutely BRILLIANT! Thank you for elevating my day.🙏💖
Completely breathtaking ceilings! I would just stare in awe, and get nothing done!
Glorious! Would love a complete tour. I thought the statues while they were still wrapped up looked amazing!
I am in your debt. Thank you for allowing me to witness such magnificence. A veritable treasure chest.
One of the most jaw-dropping homes I have ever seen.

What is the Piano music used in this video?
The J.S.Bach is listed but not the piano piece.
Études: No 6 by Vikingur Ólafsson - he has his own channel on here

Too bad the video is so short
Fabulous but, wow, the music makes this video unbearable to me.
well , you cant expect them to put an English manor with hip hop music as a background. it has to be classical of course.
Didn't see much at all......
The beauty is astonishing
