    Just love the wood work and attention to the smallest details these places have. Seems to be missing from today's builds

      Agreed. Art isn't really appreciated anymore in the same way it used to be.

    So glad this magnificent home is being cared for still after all these years.

    Happy holidays to you Adam! Nice pile, but I liked the grounds the best I think. Stay well.

    Great driveway & the house is really impressive on first sight - shame it's a hotel combined with all that 'golf' stuff!
    The wooden panelling & fireplace & the staircase give a hint of what once was as does the obelisk (sic?)
    Bailey is quite obviously not interested in what, when, why or where if there's no food involved!
    Interseting video, reminds me of Christchurch Mansion in Ipswich 👍😊 And was that Mum burping at 15:19???

      Haha. I hadn't even noticed that burp. If it was indeed a burp, it could have been me! Bailey was enjoying himself exploring with us all. It's a shame we can't do the same anymore. I'll have a usual - way too long - video again in the next few weeks, but I thought it would be nice to share something with a bit more of a family touch in-between, rather than nothing at all. Thanks again, your thoughts are always appreciated :)

      @@AdamExploresBritain 👍🤣 I'm still thinking it was Mum because you were saying the word 'view' as it happened - perhaps it was a frog in the hedgerow??!!
      Seriously, I've a number of your old videos in my 'watch later' folder & I'll get round to them as & when I do. I've been subscribed since I first came across your videos but I hadn't clicked the 'all' button. I've since clicked so I'll be aware of future videos as & when you post - As i've mentioned before, I like your unfussed & dry approach, as at 15:19 👋

    Thank you very much for the video. I am sorry to hear that Bailey has passed away. Every pet who dies leaves an open wound that never heals. Regards.

    Bailey died since making the video? 😢 Poor thing.
    I stayed here in may 2017 and the polish guy at reception kindly upgraded me to maybe the best room in the house, presumably where queen Elizabeth stayed when she visited. It was the central bay window of the central wing on the first floor where the steps lead down into the formal back gardens. I loved it. Best upgrade ever. Four poster bed.
    I learned after i stayed that the trevelyans who bought the house from philips are the same trevelyan family who gave birth to possibly the most evil brit to figure in all of Ireland's history, who actively wanted and encouraged irish depopulation and blocked all attempts to feed starving irish in what is commonly called the irish famine of 1847, but really was a genocide, because lots of food was being exported from irelamd under armed guard. Charles trevelyan was a murderous sectarian bigot who led administrative efforts that saw the starvation of over 1 million irish and the emigration of another 1 million irish. So That's the little historic nugget i wanted to add to that house.
    I wish they would get a better gardener to make the most of the great gardens they have. Or just spend money on the gardens. Wasted opportunity.

      Yes, unfortunately our Bailey left us earlier this year (I filmed this video late last year but never got around to editing it). Wow, that upgraded room sounds nice. Great result! Great little bit of interesting info about the Irish connection there. Very interesting, thanks for that. All the best, Adam :)
