As a former carpenter who built homes, I am still fascinated by the skill and the work that went into buildings like this; with all the different levels and rooms, it is incredible.
Great artists weren't they
Looks As if it’s not abandoned but being RENOVATED. ITS BEAUTIFUL
Yep! And obviously trespassing! Who do these dudes think they are?
I can’t get over all the rooms and hallways. How you lads didn’t get lost I’ll never know. I don’t think I could live in a place like this, it gives me the creeps. But I’m very interested to look inside and explore. Thank you so much for this.
I am with you on that point. How could anyone really feel "at home" in a something this huge?
I lived in Downton and used to run past the chapel every morning. I had no idea the house was that beautiful or accessible. You've made me realise just what I missed out on. Well done and thank you for that insight.
Admiral Nelson also has a castle in Bronte Sicily called Nelson Castle or Nelson Dukedom given to him by Queen Margerhita of Spain.. A former 17th century abbey. He never lived in it. The Italian gov took over the castle, I wish they would restore it. One of the Dukes gave the surrounding lands to farmers. My family was one of those who inherited the land.
Great deal of cooking in basement. Bread kiln, meat hooks, root cellar, well and a cook fireplace. Kept the heat down and it was cooler.
Could have used elevator to bring up food. Pretty smart.
The most recent owner had allowed various films shot there including "28 Days', 'Sense and Sensibility' , and 'Amazing Grace' as per Wiki. Also a place for board retreat meetings. Hopefully the restoration of the entire building goes smoothly. In the cellar, brick the stone stairs have ramped edges for probably beer or wine barrels to roll on. At least the roof seems to be intact (in contrast to the old Widener Estate outside of Philadelphia where the neglected roof has allowed rain and snow in for 60 years.). I am sure a lot of volunteers would be happy to help out with the small bits (and leave the intricate plastering, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, structural, masonry, etc..to the profressionals.) It is a massive project given all the rooms. Hopefully one day it can be turned into a complete home, and events/conference center, or an exclusive B&B for Royal Navy and Marines families. The surrounding countryside of ancient Standlynch is brilliant and lush. That music room (painted by Cipriani) is very elegant. England needs more professional restorers and should push for better support and tax breaks. IT careers get boring quick.
Admiral Nelson’s mansion,omg!! Unbelievavable,I can’t find the words to describe how I felt exploring it with you all,it was a great experience to see all the rooms,the grounds.The ornate ceilings,the chandeliers,the fireplaces,some of the rooms were in such great shape,wow and the beautiful wall carvings,thank you,thank you,thank you🥰🇨🇦
If you read through comments, he never actually lived there.....
Agree. I'm a guitar builder, still blown away. Couldn't imagine trying to make deadlines! lol
Lord Nelson didn't live there, it was bought after the battle by the Crown and presented to his brother with an annual pension of £9,000 (a lot then !) It is Grade 1 listed so I hope it will be sympathetically restored and wasn't just bought by an Oligarch or similar on a whim. It would be interesting to know who owns it now.
It was bought by Mohammed Bin Rashid II
Me to. This video inspired me to look into the ownership of that property. I came across other videos of explorers that had gone through Trafalgar Park and were contacted by the Police. HOW RIDICULOUS! The owners are just trying to cover their backs for allowing a GRADE I property to sink into the shape it has. I have discovered that the current owners live in the South WIng and have just allowed the rest of the property to disinagrate. According to other videos I have seen about this property it has now been sealed and secured. WHICH it should have been done in the first place. The House is associated with Lord Nelson, whom is on the same level as The Duke of Marlborough and the Duke of Wellington. Both of those men's homes are attractions because of the honor they brought to the United KIngdom. If the current owner can not afford it then they should look at sellling to the National Trust and not fussing when people access a home that should be a museum. to Lord Nelson. That house will always be associeted with Horatio Nelson as Blenheim Palace is with the Duke of Marlborough. The current owners are simple custodians of a property that is bigger then them. I wish someone would start a Friends of Trafalgar Park and try and get the Princes Tust involved to preserve the home that was designed to preserve the memory of Lord Nelson.
@@cjmcl3460Bigger problems in the world than a house lol. If the current owners want to let the house rot then that's their choice not yours so deal with it
@@piusx8317 I am a curator for a museum. I live "Preservation" I am also an American so have absolutly no link to anything in the United Kingdom, BUT I am entitled to my opinion just as much as any other person. So dont be rude.. telling me to deal with it. You dont know me.
@@cjmcl3460 How exactly was I rude? I'm entitled to my opinion as well. I think you should concentrate on America's conservation as you guys like to tear down historical monuments/buildings left, right & centre.
Lord Nelsons home is stunning. That place was huge and beautifully ornate but well done in its time. Thanks for taking the risks so we get to see how the rich truly live back in the day! Thanks very much Alex. Lovely house!! 🤗😁💜👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You're welcome!!
It was a pleasure to see, stunning architecture and design.
Thanks as always for the support it means alot 😁👍👍
Tt
It was never Viscount Nelson's home, but given to his family after his death
This place is actually in a pretty decent shape, considering the age of it. Absolutely amazing explore and great you got through it, without being caught 👏👏👏
Thank you N Light, glad you enjoyed it 😁👍
It goes to show how the rich lived in passed times . Next to that place , I live in a corner cupboard with no candle or secret sink in the bedroom . All I can say is WOW !!! Thanks for the exclusive look round You did a fine job of videoing that exclusive manor . Stuart in Canada ..
Amazing explore, can imagine the dances that would have been held in that ballroom xx
Whoever did the restoration in the Grand rooms has done fantastic job~wonder if they're available to decorate my lounge 🤣🤣
Oh my gosh the architecture and paintings were incredible! What a beautiful beautiful palace? Absolutely stunning! Thank you so much. Cheers from California😎💜🤟🏻🇺🇸
It amazes me how many huge houses or mansions are left not secure or not checked when someone breaks in.
Huge Nelson fan here. Thanks for the tour! (US)
Didn't think I'd ever see inside here so thanks guys.
Really enjoyed imagining all those rooms full of life at one time, a long long time ago !
I'm amazed it's not alarmed but glad or we'd never have seen this today 😊👌👍
Glad we could show you it, such an amazing place.
Thank you for watching Carol 😁👍
I think I have enough to do with my place, but oh my gosh, that place, I wouldn't even start!! Our US Navy adopted a black neck tie at the time of Nelson's death out of respect, and never discontinued it's wearing.
So happy the property is secured. The idea anyone would consider stealing or damaging that gorgeous property, removing such valuable contents is unthinkable. It is magnificent and astounding it could be abandoned without being completely secured. That is utterly unbelievable.
Great video! This place is mental 😳
Thanks OLIFAB
Whisper whisper shhh. Then bang bang squeak squeak tramp tramp. “Waite shhh I can hear someone.” 😂 however putting aside the amateur theatrics, the mansion is quite beautiful and the surrounding landscape stunning. The Mansion positioned perfectly. Loved it.
Yes. Amateur for sure. All over the place. No rhyme or reason. Chattering & laughing. No subscription from me. Beautiful property.
Awesome I loved it. Pompie so makes me laugh I only need to look at him to laugh he is ace. Thank you for this episode top job xxx
Thanks maz! And yeah he's a top bloke to explore with is Pompeye
WOW what a fab place 😍
That was the best ever abandoned house tour.
Millions of quid worth of art just left without guards, the Nelson Heritage are utterly reckless to have left all of those valuables abandoned in the middle of nowhere rather than storing them. You guys basically got full run of a museum for the day.
Fortunately it is now sealed properly, and yeah lol got a free tour!
Thanks for watching 😁 👍
It doesn't look completely abandoned. Some one is working on it.
The human talent involved in creating this kind of thing is very impressive. Many thanks!
Amazing place, I hope it can be fully renovated and open to the public to admire.
Amazing building, thank you for taking us there. This was so interesting seeing each room with the different wallpapers and ceiling designs, the fireplaces were beautiful. A brilliant find to explore. Well done 💕🇦🇺
my parents got married in the church Nelson and Emma Hamilton went to, and i was born in Nelson Hospital South Wimbledon. All around my original area there is/was quite a few places named after them. Thanks for the video, amazing house
Beautiful place, but it's obviously not abandoned.
Thank you absolutely brilliant
Kind regards Nicholas 😊
You're welcome Nicholas, glad you enjoyed that 😁👍
Even the grounds, the way they used to plant trees such as cedars or oak next to the mansion is so amazing, it gives the property a sense of privacy.
OMG, the walls and ceilings were beautiful and just a little bit creepy. Thank you for taking us along on another epic explore.
Oh my god that was flipping awesome...!!
Blummin' 'ummer!! Fantastic explore... Thank you x
Top job MATES , thanks for risking your necks for a tour of Captain Nelson's humble home. A chance of a lifetime.
STUNNING video STUNNING location, STUNNING RUclips CHANNEL 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍
Really enjoyed seeing round this beautiful mansion - you even managed to get out onto the roof!
Such amazing architecture and decor - I do hope it all gets restored and maybe opened up to the public.
Think you did a brilliant job in stealth exploring and not being caught - you managed to show us all the
best bits in the short time you had. Your drone footage is awesome. Thanks Alex 👍👍
Another great exploration there. Loved it too. Thank you Alex.👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
You're welcome 😊
Just stumbled upon your channel. A great watch! Can't get enough of these tours! Hello from Woburn, MA
Greetings from the UK thanks for checking out the video!
Hope you enjoy the rest 😁👍
What an epic explore this was how lucky 🍀 were we #nelson
Sure was mate! Very lucky indeed 🍀
I have a hard time keeping up my 1500 square foot home. I can't imagine the work needed to restore and keep this place in good condition.
bautiful house , I think Rays paranoia was through the roof ,,,,,lol
The historic home, built in 1733 and originally known as Standlynch Park, was acquired by Act of Parliament and given to Nelson's family to commemorate the Battle of Trafalgar victory of 1805.
Aside from its architecture, the property's most impressive feature is perhaps the Music Room. The walls are hand-painted by 18th century Italian painter, Giovanni Battista Cipriani.
Maybe they were given permission? I just can't believe that they went in illegally and got away with it. I just can't. Thieves would be on to this. Maybe they should notify the owners to let them know that anyone can get in and ransack the place. It's only right.
Amazing place. Why is this beautiful mansion not lived in, I hope it is going through restoration. The wall paper is beautiful and the paintings. Surely this place will not go to ruin, thanks guys for showing this place I loved it
House was used in both Sense and sensibility and 28 days later movies 😀
This is so interesting! ::: American scurrying away to find out who Lord Nelson would have been :::
Hope you get to read our extensive 'discussion' at the top of this thread.
Absolutely beautiful! Thanks for sharing! Love your videos!
Wish the National Trust would take it over and restore so people could visit and enjoy its splendour
Great video guys !! Amazing place !!
Thankyou guys really enjoyed that 😊absolutely amazing ❤ love watching your videos. Definitely my favourite to watch. Thankyou x
❤ that was a spectacular old home. I very much enjoyed seeing it.
I’m glad you love to explore all these place I wish I could but too old now so I love watching all your videos thanks very much
That was amazing guys. Loved every minute of it. Thankyou so much for sharing this. It was just WOW.
Fascinating explore. Greetings from 🇨🇦
Wow!!! Spectacular home! I wonder how many servants that it took to keep this place up during its heyday??? It was a real surprise to see exercise equipment. I would think that one could just walk through the home, and climb up all the stairways to get a workout!
Thank you for showing 😘🇨🇦
Hope it gets 🙏 turned into a museum, so everyone can enjoy it 😊 it's beautiful
Great explore Alex with the mad Pompey he is funny .I bet a lord now is buying the place spending millions on the place at least I seen a place like that on your explore which was a joy to watch another great explore cheers👍👍👍👍
Wonderful place should be part of the national trust if it isn't already
George Vanderput who died in 1800 was an admiral in Nelson navy so there’s another naval link 😀
Brilliant! Thanks for the tour of this beautiful and stately home guys.
Something about these videos are just fascinating, so thank you for producing them. They are definately well worth a watch, all these videos :)
I'm glad to see it's under renovation, and I'm glad they secured it.
Love this place. Thank you for showing it, I am amaze on how many rooms there was. Great video!
Thank you as always 😁👍
Great video what a find boys
Thank you for watching 😁 👍
What an amazing place! How is this not a museum?
Because its privately owned and these guys illegally invaded it.
It's being done up to house illegals most likely.
I hope you secured the place when you left .vandals will destroy those beautiful psintings
The place has been fully sealed and in the hands of an owner now 😁👍
Considering the age of this home, it's in really good condition, it should be lived in by a family or a museum, amazing place with such history, imagine if those walls could talk,
Did you notice on the cellar steps that on both sides there was a smooth ramp running down ? It’s to roll the barrels down without carry them to the wine store 👍
Loved this Alex, thank you, Ray was stressed on this, but did well, truly amazing stately home ❤️
He knew he shouldn’t be in there, not abandoned, obviously!
Such a shame that you had to rush but really enjoyed seeing what we could.Thanks for sharing x
Guys, this was the most interesting & riveting break in (explore) I've ever watched.
I like that it was quick moving & we saw such a lot. I'll watch this again & again. Thanks!
Somebody is in restoration act and that's really nice to see to shame to get lost to decaying with time.
Admerial Nelson
Amazing, lovely to see his estate!!
Sad to know his beloved passed away with his child as a pauper due to his selfish greedy wife!!
His last wish was for them to be taken card of..
Heartbreaking isn't it? The sailors carried her coffin tho
Amazing explore guys👍
Absolutely breath taking😍
Wow amazing explore Alex, loved this what a beautiful building, can't believe it's sat empty, thanks for sharing 👍 great video, and great team, luv Eddie and ray 👍💖xx
Wonderful! Thank you! To bad you couldn't get to see it entirely . What a Great place! Be safe.
My new favorite channel. Funny, creepy, dangerous, adventurous, historical all in one. Just shared with ten friends!
What an amazing building and a piece of History I’ve never clapped eye’s on before. The interior’s albeit a little tired we’re not that dilapidated and those vista’s were breathtaking, without so much as a hint of a peasant where ever the horizon.
Let’s hope that the refurbishment doe’s it the justice it deserves and to think there are those who would look to demolish this man’s legacy and by that I mean the braking up of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, for his sacrifice at Trafalgar put this Nation, Head and Shoulders above all those who would otherwise do us harm and for 100 year’s thereafter, we shone.
Now jitteriness lads, is an affliction best left at home with her indoors. Excellent adventure, beating that will take some effort, good luck and be safe.
Thanks for the comment,
Glad we could show you around the stunning home.
Our next video we will be visiting their abandoned church, so keep your eyes peeled 👀
This is one of my ancestors. Prety cool😎
An amazing piece of history. I wonder why the National Trust has not taken it over.... Anyone?
Clearly it wasn't abandoned, but undergoing restoration work. Even the fence they hoped was made out of new wood. Basically, they broke into the place.
Blatant trespassing of the private property like nothing happens
Yes these guys are morons making money from breaking into other peoples homes, they will get in trouble eventually.
thanks for the tour guys. I really enjoyed it!
That was amazing guy’s thank you for this great explanation!
Hi I am new to your channel and loved this explore- I have liked and subscribed!😆
The part where you quickly ran down to see with the stairs going down and a “well “ would most likely have been an ice store . You actually commented that it was nice and cool there ! The well was obviously for drainage of the room! Each side of the stairs was a ramp which would have allowed the person collecting the ice to have a wheeled cart - very clever design! These ice houses were generally housed outside underground! What an absolute incredible explore, thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much for checking out the video and for the info.
That makes total sense. 😁👍
Joolz guides of London had mentioned in his video series near the regency canal (?) that there was a big ice warehouse from which they would store ice shipped down from Iceland so it would still be ready to use in summer. Perhaps that is where that ice was distributed from but I don't know. (we have it so easy now with instant ice makers and such)
Fascinating, great tour lads 👍🏼
Great videoThanks for sharing. 🇨🇦
I loved this video, thank you for sharing it 💜❤
You gentlemen just earned me subscribing. AH-MAZING mega-mansion. 👀💯
Thank you 😊 👍 welcome in! Glad you enjoyed the explore.
@@VacantHaven
Nelson was hardly a hero of the people. He was a guardian of the Drug & Slave shipping routes, and I think they still feel they owe him something.

NELSON WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT MERITED A GAS MASK. !!!
I would love too have a place like that,lovely❤👍☺
You would think that England should honor lord Nelson’s home,
after all he did for his country. England has allowed the Nelson family home to fall into disrepair. It would be a great tourist attraction. It is a truly sad sight
Firstly, Patricia, it was never Nelson's home - sorry if you were misled by the video. It is just one of many property investments purchased years after his death, by his elder brother, Rev. William Nelson, who received the benefit of of all the pensions and other payments that a grateful country bestowed upon Horatio both before and after his death. Nor is the house in disrepair. It's called Trafalgar House, near Downton in the Wiltshire Avon valley, and was undergoing major refurbishment when these local lads broke in to make their video. It's now on the market, for sale, fully refurbished, through Strutt & Parker, if you'd like to make an offer! 😇 If you are interested in Nelson's story, we are having a good exchange at the top of this thread. Best wishes, Michael.
Beautiful 😍
One good thing about it it’s been renovated excellent beautiful building thanks for sharing✨👌💕Now that’s what I call luxury Beautiful architecture it’s gives me shivers and excitement in the beauty of the building I will enjoy that thank you✨😊💕
Amazing explore Alex! Thx 😊👍❤
You're welcome Andrea 😊
Wow when you walked into that first room with the paintings was amazing, how cool, someone bunking there lol great channel new subscrber here fae bonny Scotland
Greetings from England Carolyn!
Cheers for checking out the video and glad you enjoyed that explore 😀 👍
@@VacantHaven Thankyou
This was fascinating. What a beautiful home. Shame the family could no longer keep it going but someone is renovating.....
Oh wow wow wow. Thank you so very much. In d glad I was on your camera because you looked in cupboards and checked pictures and wall paper I felt as excited as you were. I found your explore by chance.who wouldn't w as my to visit and look out of the same windows at Lord Nelsons home
I'me delighted with your tour especially going up the roof ladded that's what I would have done..Will I subscribe oh yes. Than you you have made a70 year old widow very happy. Stay safe don't get caught there's no way other than these polite invasions we could ever visit these places. Our world is sad these lovely homes going to waste UN loved whilst many live on the streets.
Look forward to your future visits. If your ever in Paignton Devon the Singer House would be lovely to see inside.Thank you again beverley stone uk
