You ladies are absolutely tops in every way. I enjoyed your tour so much, not only for your erudition but for the charm it was presented. I’m sure the current earl appreciates your style and skill in representing this amazing collection. Kudos to everyone involved.

A wonderful presentation with professional indepth descriptions of the paintings and furniture. I hope to see more in the future.

I enjoyed every second of this episode. Thank you to everyone involved in this fabulous production. As a little aside …. I was delighted that the video wasn’t polluted with “musick”. Instead the music that was used was contemporary with the period and used judiciously. I really appreciate this as I can concentrate on the information and the art. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

室内装飾の美しさに感動しました💚　壁、柱等の細かい装飾、その色彩も素晴らしかったです。
エリザベス1世が住まわれたお城で、美しい家具や装飾品に囲まれて、絵画を鑑賞できるなんて夢のようでした。
美術館に飾られる前、日常生活の中に置かれていたそのままの状態を、今に残していることにも感動です。
ぜひ訪れたいです!
