That's so kind of you to say, thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video, Adam 🙂😃

Much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks again for watching, Adam :)

Thanks again 😀

Thank you loads. I hope you enjoy the other videos. I will have a new one exploring Wentworth Woodhouse in a couple of weeks. Thanks again for watching, Adam :)

Hello from England! It's lovely to hear that you're enjoying my videos. I also really appreciate that you've taken the time to leave a couple of nice comments as it inspires me to keep doing what I'm doing. Many thanks for watching, Adam :)

I checked on the following link earlier this year. Usually Wednesday afternoons from April as you can see on the link. Check back early next year to see if they change days or times. Thanks again for watching. It's a lovely quiet place to have a look around. Adam :) www.visitheritage.co.uk/things-to-do/wotton-house-p683881

@@AdamExploresBritain Thanks for the reply, i've been exploring the country houses of the country over the past few years, been to about 100!

@@KS-oc4hu Wow, you're doing well there! I've done quite a few and a couple of years ago decided to start videoing my visits instead of just taking photos. There's something so fascinating about these estates that keeps me wanting to explore them. Have fun, Adam :)

@@AdamExploresBritain Im currently just taking photos. I have a flickr page if you want some ideas.

Oh yes! I went to Wentworth Woodhouse the next day. I'll be editing and uploading a video of that day in the next few weeks. Thanks for watching, Adam :)

You're very welcome, I enjoyed making it. It's a lovely place with some nice views. Thanks for watching and stopping by to leave a nice comment, it's much appreciated. Adam :)

I don't think you can quite see one from the other. I think it was said that Wentworth Woodhouse was over the other side of the hill that you can see whilst looking out at the view from where the temple is near the South front of this house. I did go to Wentworth Woodhouse the following day so I'll be putting that video up in the coming weeks when I get the chance to edit it. I even went to the garden centre next door to find a couple of things there which were originally part of the Wentworth Woodhouse gardens. Thanks again, Adam 🙂

No worries. Yeah, I noticed they had some house tours going on this year so I thought I would go along and see what it was like in there whilst checking out the gardens and grounds. Thanks for watching again, Adam 🙂

Yeah, they were pretty impressive. I especially liked the bits in the tall staircase hall with the colourful ceiling. They'd asked us on the tour not to film too low as there were still college students/staff around which is why I mostly filmed the ceilings etc in most rooms. To be fair, most of the stuff at a lower level had been removed apart from chimneypieces anyway, so you didn't miss much. Thanks again for joining me on my tootle around, Adam :)

Yeah, I never imagined that the grounds were so big before I got there. The place really exceeded my expectations. I would definitely visit quite often if I was local, as the place has a lovely feel to it with great views. Many thanks for watching again, always appreciated, Adam :)

Thanks for sharing that with us. Adam :)

Yes, it's gorgeous. I really enjoyed this place! Thanks for watching, Adam :)

Oh yes, like Richie Rich. Or Gregory Gregory in this case! 😃😄

Yes, I'm going to try to go back one day to Blaise. I was tempted to go on the same day, but it was getting late by the time I'd finished at KW and I needed to get back home. I'm really glad you found the video interesting. Many thanks for your lovely comment, Adam :)

Thanks for your kind comments, and thanks a lot for watching. I'm really glad you enjoyed it, Adam :)

That's a lovely thing to say, thank you. I read that at work earlier and it brightened up my day. I'm glad you're enjoying coming along on the tours with me and I hope you enjoy the ones in the future. Thanks a load, very much appreciated, Adam :)

Sounds like a good little adventure! I don't think health and safety would be too happy about that these days haha. Great memories. Thanks for watching my video, Adam :)

Yes, the exit road from the hotel bypasses the barriers that you're thinking of where you have to pay. The exit road eventually merges with the regular exit road and then you leave as normal onto the main road. Going back some years there used to be someone who would check your hotel booking on the road exit from the hotel, but I havn't seen that for a few years. Adam :)

@@AdamExploresBritain Thanks for your reply! It is my first time staying there so is much appreciated :)

@@lukeypat No worries. Have a great time 👍😀

Yeah, I remember the look of 'steam' coming out of the hole being a lot thicker and more prevalent :)

@@AdamExploresBritain Yeah and for me, that just takes a lot of the tenseness out of the ride. Ok granted dropping vertically is gonna make your heart go weak, but now you can see the track when you do look down when hanging off the end, whereas back then because the hole was completely engulfed by the fog or steam as you put it coming from those dry ice machines which were far more reliable it really made it a lot more chilling, quite literally. And of course you don't hear the voice saying "Don't Look Down." anymore.

Totally agree :)

I expect so. There may be photos or drawings online. Thanks for watching, Adam 🙂

I'm not sure. Try info@hagleyhall.com for any enquiries, would be my advice :)

It is not patio furniture. The tables are part of the cafe on the lower ground floor. Entrance to the cafe is next to the blue picnic table. Walk up a little way into the grounds and you can see both the Severn Bridges over to Wales. The woodland is beautiful. A child's paradise.

I appreciate you sharing your thoughts and for watching my video. The house has had various uses since being a private residence so I'm sure most of the valuable furniture and fittings were removed many many years ago in one way or another. I hope you found it interesting anyway to see what has happened to the place, and thanks for your honest opinion. Adam 🙂

Strangely, I only came across the place for the first time last year! I believe that several people clubbed together and now live on the upper floors of the house in some form of communal living arrangement (not sure exactly if it's leased or what). The lower floors are used for weddings and other functions on occasion. Thanks for watching, Adam :)

Thanks again pal, glad you liked it. Adam :)

That's very kind, thank you. I'm really glad you find them enjoyable/interesting. Thanks for watching, Adam :)

Yeah, I think the bar must be there for the wedding functions that it holds sometimes nowadays. Thanks for dropping by again, much appreciated, as usual. Adam 🙂👍

Yeah, it's smaller than a lot of the country houses I visit but I think it looks great, especially from the main front. Good to see one of Vanbrugh's smaller houses. I only heard of it for the first time in a book last year, so it was a relatively new one to me. Thanks for watching, Adam :)

@AdamExploresBritain if we are ever down that way we'll be sure to take a look!

@@chrisisjustme7546 Lovely place for a walk etc. Would definitely recommend. Free parking etc pretty much right next to the house/grounds. Little cafe using part of the house 👍

@@AdamExploresBritain 👍

The cafe (with the blue tiles) has really good quality food. Cafe is much nicer and cheaper than the restaurant .

It is! Thanks for watching, Adam :)

Thanks a lot, that's very kind. Glad you enjoyed it, Adam :)

Hello. No, I'm not currently a member, but I'm looking into doing it one year and getting some value out of it. Maybe next year, or the year after it. I've been looking at the houses that they give access to. I'm glad you enjoy my videos, I'll probably have a new one up in the next week or so. Thanks a lot, Adam :)

Probably, but it's hard on a guided tour as you're expected to be in the same room at the same time. Sometimes it's fortunate that they allow me to film at all in these houses as they don't always allow it. Sometimes it's either film with the additional voice of the guide, or not at all, and a lot of people like to see inside the house. Thanks for watching though, and I understand your comment. Adam :)

You're very welcome, thank you! Yeah, it's a lovely place, you should visit some time. They still have a couple of guided walks this year according to their website. There may be more events next year similar to the one I went to. Thanks again, Adam. See here: www.chillingtonhall.co.uk/whats-on

Yes, thanks. I realised this during our tour, but it was a bit too late by then, haha.

Glad you liked it. It was good exploring the remains of the airfield buildings too! Thanks again for watching, Adam 😀🙂

Thank you again. The gardens were beautifully kept here. I was really impressed! Adam :)

Some of them go back hundreds of years to their allegiances with whatever side had won certain wars internally. Then there were generals etc in the army fighting wars abroad who were awarded land and titles for their victories. Then you had those who married into already wealthy families. Others made their money through business (helped in differing degrees by the slave trade). I suppose some of it goes right back to being awarded land when conquering England (William the Conquerer etc) and then receiving rent/tax from people for using that land. You can probably trace some landed families right back until that time, I would expect. There will be many more reasons but I think those are some of the main ones. Thanks for watching, I really appreciate it, Adam :)

@@AdamExploresBritain ok makes sense i guess, why would you want to fight everyone to achieve power and wealth beyond imagination.

Exactly 👍🙂
