My last name is Howard, I live in New England. The Howard family has lived in Vermont at least since late 1700's. These could be my ancestors.

Another exquisite building that I didn't know existed. The interior is breath taking and a total contrast to the boring modern buildings being built today. A peek into how the gentry lived. Another vlog that I will watch over again as there is so much to see. Thanks Simon and Will, I love starting my Sunday mornings strolling around new places with you. Take care =-)

"The fourth and fifth Earls WOULD fill the house". NO ! Why the conditional ? Try, "The fourth and fifth Earls filled the house .....". " Guests WOULD have arrived in horse-drawn carriages". If they had been invited ..... is that what the narrator means ? Pellegini's paintings were not, and are not, "incredible". They are perfectly credible. They are there aren't they ? If the narrator wishes to gush, he could describe them as "superlative" or something similar,(they are not), but certainly not "incredible" I thank your Simon and Will, nonetheless, for this video. They have shewn me enough to save me from wasting money on a visit. I had my suspicions and they have confirmed that it is, along with everything that Vanbrugh and/or Hawksmoor had anything to do with ..... GROSSLY UGLY .....as is St Paul's Cathedral AND that monstrosity in Oxfordshire. I would rather look up at the ceiling in my local Lidl.

@andrewthornhill7042 Год назад

Charles Carlisle was ''A gentleman of the King's bedchamber. The duties of the Lords and Gentleman of the Bedchamber originally consisted of assisting the monarch with dressing, waiting on him when he ate, guarding access to his bedchamber and closet and providing companionship.....and providing companionship. Do you think that these days he would be known as a pimp to royalty? That is a serious question.

@SpanishEclectic Год назад

There is something about those wide open spaces, with the "natural" landscape designed to perfection. I hadn't realized the house took 100 years to build! The art collection there is incredible! I recall a few scenes from Brideshead Revisited, where the actors walked those long halls with statues, and had some hard conversations in the chapel. Thank you for braving the rain for a better look at the grounds. Another great tour!

@MemorySeekers Год назад

Yes the artwork is amazing, it really needs to be seen first hand and close up. What a collection! It was a wet old day but I think we managed ok!

Castle Howard.... ich habe noch nie so etwas schönes und beeindruckendes gesehen , das Haus und die Gärten machen mich sprachlos. Ich würde mehrere Tage brauchen um alles in mich aufzunehmen , allein der Geschirrschrank mit diesem wunderschönen Porzellan, die Wand und Gewölbe Malereien , die immens vielen Bilder, die Statuen und und und... einfach grandios.Danke für dieses einmalige Video und die Hintergrundinformationen, eine Reise die ihr wohl auch nich so schnell vergessen werdet, ich glaube diese Bilder lassen einen lange nicht los.

Thanks for the tour of Castle Howard, I love the purely English style of castles, the architecture, painting, sculpture and engineering structures that the English aristocracy is famous for are impressive. Fantastic garden, the owners had a delicate taste and sense of style, the nature is amazing, these fountains are simply suitable for filming a movie and no scenery is needed. I wish England to cherish all this beauty, this is a memory of history, of those people who created these beautiful castles that we look at and admire. Hello from St.Petersburg. Come, we also have many palaces and something to admire. With a deep sense of gratitude. Thank you sincerely for the pleasure. ❤❤❤❤❤

Красивые , великолепной архитектуры здание, внутренний дизайн здания просто восхищает… задаюсь вопросом, откуда такие богатства у людей взялись что бы строить такие дворцы , особенно в начале 15-16 веков??? Если поднять архивы и почитать историю возникновения богатств , тогда всё становится понятно… а что изменилось сейчас в 21- ом веке??? Ничего, все продолжается … thanks for this video 🙏🙏🙏

@kathyastrom1315 Год назад

My mom and I were there ten years ago. We only had a few hours available, so we just toured the house and walked around the gardens directly next to the building, but it was very impressive. (I will admit that my favorite manor house on that trip was actually Dunrobin Castle north of Inverness-it is not quite as imposing as Castle Howard and more charming as a result.)
