I have been here only three times, once during the Christmas season, and it never ceases to awe and amaze me. To think that New York City was chalk full of mansions just like this, albeit with a much smaller footprint. The history we have lost is irreplaceable, which makes saving this beautiful estate an absolute must.
Even with its massive size, it's still very relaxing and feels like a home. It's one of my favorite vacation spots. I would love to live in the Biltmore Forest neighborhood.
I grew up going to Biltmore with my Sunday school group, my girl scout troop, and with my friends. This was the 1960s. As a teenager, a girlfriend and I would ride our horses by sneaking on to the back side of the Biltmore Estate...miles and miles of trails to ride. Aaah, such wonderful memories. Viewing this clip I see so much has changed in the last 52 years. I was raised right there in South Buncombe County.
Sounds lovely. I grew up also riding trails with my friends. I can't ride anymore due to medical issues but those adventures in the woods are my most treasured memories.
Although I have been to the Biltmore many times, including Christmas, I have really never been able to take in the complete beauty, architecture, artwork, decor, and Christmas decorations as I have in this video! Such attention to detail was amazing! Thank you for sharing this beautiful video!
Thank you so very much for the kind words and for viewing. The Biltmore amazes me every time I see it & wanted to share its beauty with those that can’t be there physically. ❤
Thank you so much for this beautiful, thoughtful post. We are 78, both have had COVID longhaulers since March 2020. Live 60 miles away and have not been able to get to Biltmore since March 2020. This is such a treat. God Bless You❣️ and MERRY CHRISTMAS . You have made two old folks very happy with your post.
@@joannadavis6716 thank you so much for the kind words! 😊❤️ So glad I was able to bring joy into your lives in some capacity. Your words bring much joy to me knowing that I could help.
Such a whopping, eye popping French gothic palace! Today’s cost for the entire project would probably run into billions. Wisely built where it wouldn’t be pressured by developers for destruction.
Absolutely stunning video of a magnificent home. I’ve had the wonderful opportunity to visit Biltmore, however, it was wonderful to be taken back through this video, especially at Christmas. The music throughout was perfect for this tour.
I went to Biltmore for the 2nd time in Nov and still loved it. The Xmas decorations are so beautiful. Thanks for this tour, I loved seeing it again. Can’t wait to go back, especially for more wine 😋
Biltmore is such an amazing place. Been there twice. Once at Christmas and once in the spring. Incredible! I love the basement the best with the wonderful kitchen, laundry room, workout room, pantry, pool, & servants quarters. It’s definitely a place everyone should visit. I wish it still had the outdoor pool. Incredible home! So worth seeing and I plan to go back again.
I remember being able to park at the front door on our 1982 visit. Then in 1997 we took a carriage ride down to the front door from the visitor’s center. Wonderful.
Wow, that’s amazing! I wish they still did this, but I understand why they don’t with the amount of people there today. Thanks for viewing & sharing! ❤
32:40 The most beautiful piano arrangement of White Christmas I've ever heard. Befitting of the Biltmore Estate...a stunningly beautiful architectural masterpiece.
The details of this castle is astonishing! Mixes of culture n craftmenship come together. Then adding Christmas decor on top of it is swimming in icing!! I visited once in the summer. It was lovely! ❤❤❤ it sure is a must visit!
It’s lovely having this video just to soak in the splendor. And the music choice is excellent. We used to have annual passes when we lived in Spartanburg County. Loved to visit every season.
Christmas at Biltmore is incredible but not affordable for most of us anymore. I appreciate you sharing this but I’d like to be able to see it in person. I wish their tickets were half the cost.
@@zuzuspetals9281 the Biltmore is definitely incredible! I was fortunate in that my family gifted me the experience as a Christmas gift. Glad I’m able to share this gift with everyone. 🙏🏻 And just to state: I’m not affiliated with the Biltmore.
We visited last week in the evening, so this video during the daytime was awesome to watch. Thanks so much for posting. Our favorite room was the library.
From what I understand I do believe they did. They were very big on giving back to their community and treating their house staff & builders above and beyond what typical payment and treatment was at that time. They would host family and friends often and they specifically chose the location due to the beauty of the area & the view. Thank you for watching! ❤
Nice job! Although I wish the volume of the music was lower, it's otherwise very well done, and I appreciate that music is the only sound. Biltmore allows non-flash photography for personal use. I have toured and photographed it many times. I also went before photos were allowed and refused to go again until they allowed photography because I forgit most of what I had seen after about 3 days! Having images to remind me of what I saw has increased my enjoyment immensely and made me want to return. The floral arrangements change with the seasons and lighting is different, etc.., so no visit is exactly the same as another. Now, it feels like home because I know it more intimately.
Thank you for viewing! You should be able to adjust your volume on any device you’re using to view. 😊 Also thanks for sharing the cool facts / your Biltmore experience!
Thank you so much for taking us along, I also just posted my Christmas Home Tour with a very traditional Plaid on Plaid theme. God bless and happy holidays Ramon
Beautiful. I just wish whoever made the video would have panned the rooms. This is one of the most palatial homes in the world. You couldn’t tell that from this video.
@@grantuspeace3230 I appreciate your opinion, however I worked with what I could. It was very difficult to film this house as is, let alone the people that kept walking in front of me as I filmed, or whatever other obstacles popped up (not that an explanation is needed). My family is who I made this video for and they are very happy with the result which is the only people whose opinions matter to me. I do thank you for the constructive feedback as it helps me in the creative process, though I was not expecting this video to take off as I posted it. Many have stated how satisfied they are, so hope it brought you some joy. 😊
Enjoyed the video a lot. We've never been to Biltmore - a number of our friends have. Aside from liking the musical background, we learned a lot about the estate - and will have to make a visit on our schedule for the new year! Thanks for posting!
How many men did it take to build the Biltmore Estate? It took 1,000 men six years to build the house. Construction began a year later by what is reported as 1,000 talented craftsmen, and Biltmore House opened to the family at Christmas 1895.May 1, 2015
Surprised you were able to video the interior, it wasn’t allowed in the past. Of course, at one time, you weren’t able to take pictures inside either. It’s nice to see it as if you were touring. It’s such a fabulous place.
The entry fee and yet another price for visiting the gardens, are truly criminal. I have been around the world and no other place has been more expensive to visit.
What is shown in this video is such a small part of the house. There are floors that were not shown at all. It is BEAUTIFUL! I live about 30 minutes from the estate.
@@elaineroberts6541 wasn’t able to get it all on camera due to time, however there were also certain areas that were not a part of the tour which is what you’re referring to. Thank you for the add! 😊
The house today is better than it was when Mr. V lived there. Kudos to the Floral Department for their hardwork in the decorations for Christmas. Don't think the lighted fireplace is a good idea
I didn’t see the exquisite crèche (nativity) that was always on the buffet in the room with the fabric ceiling! Such a shame if they’ve taken Christ out of Christmas 😢
I have gone to Biltmore in the past many times at Christmas. The Christmas decorations were sparse, not like in years past. Did not see even one nativity scene. Has Biltmore gone WOKE? Go WOKE, go BROKE. Management has changed hands for sure. Nobody I know can afford to visit anymore with the price of admission. Jesus is the reason for the season. Keep Christ in Christmas. Noticed how small the crowds were. Not like in years past. Waiting in line to get in. This is very sad. Gouging people on admission will not make money in this economy. Rethink your charges. And, I have not seen a single Angel either?
Her rent isn’t $3000 but her maintenance fee would be about this monthly or if she didn’t inherit it was rent controlled and she had it handed to her by her parents. She had a story there at 15 so one of these situations make sense.
I’ll have to add that to my bucket list! I think they’re both beautiful in their own way and two totally different styles/locations so it’s hard for me to compare personally. Thanks for watching! 😊
I visited there once with my children. Unfortunately was told, "yes, bring your children, a family place", it's for couples and older people honestly. It was beautiful.
This was over priced to see "how the other half live." The staff was not a bit friendly. To me it felt cold and uninviting... There were homeless people just beyond the home and this is a lavish home....In other words....It was nothing to write home about!!
I have not had the privilege to visit Biltmore and mentioned a possible narration only because I love history and am sure that this beautiful home is filled with interesting facts. However, I completely agree that the video certainly does speak for itself, and the music without vocals allows us to be swept away with the breathtaking beauty in quiet reflection!! Again, thank for allowing us all to peek into something so special!!❤
@@lmoore155 Do a search on RUclips. There a videos that go the history of the Biltmore. You should try to visit one day. As beautiful as it is in pictures and video, it is nothing compared to seeing it in person.
You didn’t shoe the massive fireplaces or take better shots at the dinner ware. You just scammed by them and not taking your time to really show what the Biltmore house looked like!
@@lyndamadrid-miller695 First of all, what I filmed is ALL that was available for tour. Secondly, I appreciate your opinion (& you know what they say about opinions), however I worked with what I could. It was very difficult to film this house as is, let alone the people that kept walking in front of me as I filmed, or whatever other obstacles popped up (not that I owe anyone an explanation). My family is who I made this video for and they are very happy with the result which is the only people whose opinions matter to me despite you very abrasively sharing your own OPINION. I do thank you for the constructive feedback as it helps me in the creative process, though I was not expecting this video to take off as it was a personal video. Many have stated how satisfied they are, so hope it brought you some joy despite your negative views on it. 😊 Have a great day and feel free to not say anything at all if you don’t have anything nice to share, or feel free to go to the Biltmore and work really hard for many hours to create YOUR own perfect video.
Lovely video. But you have fallen into the trap that so many RUclipsrs do in thinking that music playing constantly and invasively adds something when in reality all it does is drown the experience. We want to feel like we’re there, meaning we would like to hear the ambient sounds. Shame.
To each their own. It was a personal and creative decision on my part to add the music as a classically trained musician. When you walk through the Biltmore, and as you are going through the guided tour, they play many classical pieces especially from the Bach era. I felt that a) there was too much conversation that wouldn’t have fit the video from myself and my family that I did not want in the video and b) I felt that classical music would highlight the time period in which the house was built. So, while you might not like it, I created this video for myself and my family and am happy with the result among many others as you can see. Thanks for your opinion as I do I try to take all feedback into consideration! Hope you have a magical holiday season. 😊
@@trishradloff2421 thanks for your opinion (and you know what they say about opinions). I’m quite pleased with how it turned out and so is my family, whom I made it for. In fact, many others are quite satisfied. In my eyes, my family’s words are the only who count in this scenario. 😊 Have a great day!

@@tomsimpson5317 highly recommend a visit! Thanks for watching. 😊
This was over priced to see "how the other half live." The staff was not a bit friendly. To me it felt cold and uninviting... There were homeless people just beyond the home and this is a lavish home....In other words....It was nothing to write home about!!
Nice!😊
@@susangailkoch3935 thank you so much for the kind words! 😊❤️
Are those Luminarias???
Very pretty
@@sherrymccormack1691 thank you so much for the kind words! 😊❤️
Didn't know you could video the inside of Baltimore??? They always told no when I called and asked. I'll have to look into it.
I was there in September and we could use our phones. No flash photography.
Exceptional video, but I would have loved a narration!
This video speaks for itself!
I appreciate the view and kind words! I will definitely take your feedback into consideration. Stay tuned on my channel for more! ❤️
I actually liked it because it didn't have narration. Loved the music!
I have not had the privilege to visit Biltmore and mentioned a possible narration only because I love history and am sure that this beautiful home is filled with interesting facts. However, I completely agree that the video certainly does speak for itself, and the music without vocals allows us to be swept away with the breathtaking beauty in quiet reflection!! Again, thank for allowing us all to peek into something so special!!❤
@@lmoore155 Do a search on RUclips. There a videos that go the history of the Biltmore. You should try to visit one day. As beautiful as it is in pictures and video, it is nothing compared to seeing it in person.
I didn't think taking video was allowed inside the house...
Can you see all this when you go to Biltmore
@@lynnevans203 yes you can! Thanks for watching! 😊
As far as the decorating for Christmas, not impressed!!
@@cherylwhitesell2522 that’s a Biltmore decision. Just glad I could share my viewpoint. 🤗
You didn’t shoe the massive fireplaces or take better shots at the dinner ware. You just scammed by them and not taking your time to really show what the
Biltmore house looked like!
@@lyndamadrid-miller695 First of all, what I filmed is ALL that was available for tour. Secondly, I appreciate your opinion (& you know what they say about opinions), however I worked with what I could. It was very difficult to film this house as is, let alone the people that kept walking in front of me as I filmed, or whatever other obstacles popped up (not that I owe anyone an explanation). My family is who I made this video for and they are very happy with the result which is the only people whose opinions matter to me despite you very abrasively sharing your own OPINION. I do thank you for the constructive feedback as it helps me in the creative process, though I was not expecting this video to take off as it was a personal video. Many have stated how satisfied they are, so hope it brought you some joy despite your negative views on it. 😊 Have a great day and feel free to not say anything at all if you don’t have anything nice to share, or feel free to go to the Biltmore and work really hard for many hours to create YOUR own perfect video.
Any jobs available?
We don’t care about little trees show tge rooms details!
Lovely video. But you have fallen into the trap that so many RUclipsrs do in thinking that music playing constantly and invasively adds something when in reality all it does is drown the experience. We want to feel like we’re there, meaning we would like to hear the ambient sounds. Shame.
To each their own. It was a personal and creative decision on my part to add the music as a classically trained musician. When you walk through the Biltmore, and as you are going through the guided tour, they play many classical pieces especially from the Bach era. I felt that a) there was too much conversation that wouldn’t have fit the video from myself and my family that I did not want in the video and b) I felt that classical music would highlight the time period in which the house was built. So, while you might not like it, I created this video for myself and my family and am happy with the result among many others as you can see. Thanks for your opinion as I do I try to take all feedback into consideration! Hope you have a magical holiday season. 😊
The music would have been more appropriate if it was Holiday music. Appreciate that it was at least classical.
@@trishradloff2421 thanks for your opinion (and you know what they say about opinions). I’m quite pleased with how it turned out and so is my family, whom I made it for. In fact, many others are quite satisfied. In my eyes, my family’s words are the only who count in this scenario. 😊 Have a great day!
Pick up the pace a little.
