You say your happy there. Somehow this reveals to me that you can be happy anywhere. You see all the flowers growing in her garden, see her books, smell the fragrance of her house and it make you dream. So let us be inspired anywhere and find Virginia in ourselfselfs.
Extremely blessed to discover this video being recommended on my homepage. As a Woolf fan, this is such pleasure content to watch. Beautiful filming. Thank you.
very nice - I am glad you enjoyed this lovely place. I am lucky enough to be a guide at Monks House and we so love to have visitors - Hopefully we can open again soon this year.
Beautiful video, Claire! I am absolutely dying to go there, it looks so unutterably beautiful. I can just see her wandering about the garden and the downs.
You're so lucky to be able to go to these wonderful places! But also, for those of us who can't go there (just yet) we're lucky to have you make these absolutely beautiful videos =) Really really well done.
What a great video! Monk's House and the surrounding areas are gorgeous. You can definitely see why she set her desk facing the hills in the distance, assuming that nothing obscured them previously. The whole area must've been wonderful for someone so brilliantly perceptive as she.
Just finishing reading all the volumes of her letters and diaries wish we knew then what we know now on how to treat mental illnesses your video makes me cry
I have the 2013 book ‘Virginia Woolf’s Garden’ by Caroline Zoob. It’s a beautiful coffee table book. Thank you for videoing the garden. Selfishly, I wish the video went for longer. It looked beautiful. I have to embarrassingly admit, I’ve not read a Virginia Woolf book yet. I think I’ll read a little more about her life before choosing. In the time I’ve taken to write this comment, I’ve decided that I’ll buy a Virginia Woolf book for Christmas - a gift to myself this year (2020). A wonderful reason to add another book to my bookshelf. Thank you for your inspiration 🍁🍂🍄
Nice! I die for being and living!! in such a beautiful house. I die for forming a group of intellectual friends as Virginia did. And wow, 588 likes, 0 dislikes. Excellent
Love love love this sooo much. That had to be amazing seeing the place of someone you love so much. You probably have that cool feeling associated with the place and time now.
This is simply beautiful! I must go and see her house! I adore this series of Snapshots you're putting together! I really enjoyed Life in Squares and felt that it did great justice to Virginia, Leonard, Lytton, Vanessa and the rest of the Bloomsbury Group. I've read Mrs Dalloway and To the Lighthouse; any recommendations for my third Woolf novel?
Hi Christina, if people enjoy my videos they can choose to tip me (just like a busker) to help support my video making. It’s completely optional and I do this instead of putting ads on the majority of my videos - including this one. If I’d chosen to put ads on this video I could have made around £3,000 for context. I’ve been using any funds I’m kindly given to help save up for a postgraduate degree. I hope that helps!

This is one of my favourtite videos in the entire world. I keep coming back to it every few months. Thank you for this precious gift, Claire.
This really means a lot - thank you!

Thank you for watching 💕
This is so beautiful. Thanks for sharing with us! Monk's House sounds so serene and perfect. Also, I need to go read more of Woolf's work now... :)
+Effusions of Wit Thank you! If you haven't read (or want to re-read Orlando) Alysia (exlibris) and I will be doing a buddy read of it in October :)
That sounds wonderful! I read Orlando in University but it's been so long! Maybe I'll try to get my hands on a copy for October :)
What a great video! Monk's House and the surrounding areas are gorgeous. You can definitely see why she set her desk facing the hills in the distance, assuming that nothing obscured them previously. The whole area must've been wonderful for someone so brilliantly perceptive as she.
Thank you! It is absolutely stunning and I can definitely see why VW chose to live there.

+Anna the Bibliophile The Waves! I enjoyed Life in Squares too but like with every bio drama I wanted a bit more focus on their work.
Beautiful!
+treepaperbook Thank you lovely!

Very Nice video , I love It !
Ah you are in beautiful East Sussex,my home county :) xxx
+Raincoat days I hope to visit again soon - it is very beautiful!
It's gorgeous! Also your shots are very smooth - I'm impressed because I'm assuming you're just using a handheld camera!
