HERMITAGE CASTLE | EXPLORING the GUARDHOUSE of the BLOODIEST Valley in Britain | Walking Tour
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 сер 2023
- Hermitage Castle, situated in the Scottish Borders, holds a dark and turbulent history dating back to the 13th century. Built as a border fortress, it played a crucial role in the conflicts between England and Scotland.
Known for its remote location and association with brutality, it earned a sinister reputation as the "guardhouse of the bloodiest valley in Britain." The castle was linked to notable historical figures, including Mary, Queen of Scots, and James Hepburn, Earl of Bothwell.
Today, its well-preserved ruins continue to captivate visitors, evoking a sense of the harsh borderland history and the power struggles that defined the region.

Thank you so much for taking us on a delightful virtual adventure; it was a wonderful escape.
Hiya, thanks for the comment, appreciated! Although the premiere of this video drops in 6 hours time :) Have a great day
Hi, Alessa and Brett,
Wow, who doesn't like bagpipes' sounds that give me goosebumps.
Hmmm, this castle is about power and wealth?... bloody and chilled history.
I see where it situated, watch the filed for miles and miles away. wow
I am enjoying awe-moments as you give us walking tour of the castle.
Thanks to Brett, about the info, the designer of the castle.
The structure of the wall, a work of art, is stunning!!!
What? Three cellars? haha they must have drunk a lot of liquor...sure..haha
Unexpectedly, the living space is small portion of the castle, but it is still intact and I truly enjoy the tour.
Well, the chapel part is somehow it desire to be hidden. That's what I take it...Rustic and peaceful
I am glad that I finish filming yesterday to join your premiere while I am still coping with the loss of the family member.
Very thankful to you and Brett for producing this laborious and time-consuming film.
Ciao

So sad history but the castle definitely one of the most beautiful castles !
Absolutely STUNNING video. The information, filming and editing are top notch. Drones shots at end were just Spectacular 👌👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Such a dark past with so much history. The castle looked like a battle-hardened tank in the middle of nowhere. Beautiful presentation
Alessa and Brett, your journey through Hermitage Castle feels like a captivating step back in time 🏰. The way you unravel its history, from its majestic architecture to its bloody past, truly brings this fortress to life. The drone shots sweeping over the rugged landscape and the castle itself add a mesmerizing touch to the adventure. I appreciate the depth you bring to your tours, making history come alive right before our eyes. Keep exploring and sharing these remarkable places! 🌄🏴
Amazing comment. Thank you for the support! Really appreciated and helps keep us going! 🙏 ❤️
Fabulous video as always! Lots of love for your channel from your friends in Scotland! 🙂
Thanks so much! 😊 You're honestly awesome!
Great story, well told. Loved the drone transition with the music.
You're very kind, thank you ever so much!
That’s amazing and stunning journey again. As always you always amazed me Britt and Alessa. Have a nice day 👍
So many fortified manors and castles in this area! This is a great one. Thanks for sharing the dramatic story.... especially the Robin Redcap the murderous dwarf wizard!! 😳
This was a very intriguing and well produced video. I always enjoy your history lessons.
What an amazing history to this historic castle. The castle gives me a mysterious feel as you take us on the tour. Thanks for sharing. New friend here.❤❤
Omg boiled in lead !😱 What a gruesome tale of bloody mayhem. Robin Red Cap and his evil Lord. I love the stories almost as much as the enchanting old castles and Abbeys and now the guardhouse with its bloody history! Beautiful fly over Brett, as always, the icing on the delightful cake🤩
Wow imagine being there centuries ago during these battles. 😮😮
I know right, it's mad to think about when they are empty and ruinous now, but what a life they led! Thank you so much for your comments and all your support!
This is wow, truly amazing. Really loved the history of this place, so interesting. Loved it ❤
Bloody history, but lovely tour, Alessa and Brett. Impressive stronghold and prison. Built for strength! Thanks for bringing us along.
Ahh, thank you ever so much Dave and Kathy! So kind. It really is such an impressive building, loved the inside, even better that you both enjoyed it. Thanks for coming along xx
Beautiful share my dear friend 💐👌👌
Thank you so much 🙂
This is brilliant. When I shot my drone video last week I wasn't able to enter as it is all closed off now. Thank you for sharing! You got much nicer weather than I did, as it was raining when I was there. My drone survived! 🤣
Oh thank you! Oh no completely closed off? that's such a shame! There was a problem with the masonry when we went too, thank god the drone survived lol!! Thank you for commenting :D
A beautiful castle and it’s sat in such a nice area 😊 liked listening to its history and great flyover with the drone Brett 😊
Dark curious history and myth. Thank you for the tour sand visit to the amazing castle.
Glad you enjoyed it thank you so very much Starry!
stunning footage glad your getting a break in the weather
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you so much Johnny, we managed to chase the storm and got very lucky hehe!
It so amazing to see my family's castle. I am a direct descendent of the de Soulis family. Can't wait to see it in person.
That's absolutely incredible, how amazing that the family is in your line! You will love the castle ruins, they are very beautiful, especially inside. Hope you have the best visit! Thank you so much for commenting!

Thank you my friend!
It's not often I think a castle looks better on the inside than our but the inside of this is fabulous. The outside is not too shabby either but they do like to mess it up with fencing in Scotland. Looked a lovely remote place with lots of bloody history. Thanks for the tour and sharing its history 👍Paul
Good video cool looking castle 🏰 Thanks for showing us around Pinned on Places 👍
Looks so much like my two visits 😂 I’m surprised you got permission to fly your drone as I was refused when I asked last year but I do need to get back and try again now 😁👍🏻
Such a dark history, great one again
Thankyou for showing us these wonderful ruins really interesting information 😊
Thumbs up 78. Scotland wow so beautiful 😍
Many thanks!
Love that place. It was closed in 2022 when we went there so I would've thought flying my drones wouldn't anger anyone but the warden lady was rather huffed...
It's pretty special! Oh wow, that is unfortunate, maybe we had the warden lady on a good day lol, she wasn't in the slightest bit bothered, although we took off from outside the site, but she was fine, really nice actually!
Watching replay 💜 awesome place
You're too kind Sue, thank you! x
Very nice tour in this castle
Thanks for visiting
So wonderful history lesson and great video and drone footage
Awesome video ⚓️👍🧲
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you so much!
Such an amazing castle Alessa and Brett. I was fascinated with the history and details of the castle. People were pretty barbaric back then for killings. The drone views looked beautiful . Excellent! 👍😊🇨🇦

Many many thanks for sharing this beautiful place Hermitage Castle
It’s really very informative to know its history
Big 👍 👍👍
Thanks for your fantastic movie
Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it, thank you so much!
Can't say I'm disappointed. Loved the narration of this castle's history, and it's ghost story. Great video. It's quite the sight for sure. If ever you are up in Scotland, in my area (Moray) and surrounding parts such as the Highlands, there's a good few castle's dotting about, such as Redcastle, Duffus, Slains (which is, I think in Aberdeenshire) and Lochindorb to name but a few.
Oh wow! Thank you so much JudgeDredd, really do appreciate you giving us your time and support - loved Hermitage, such an incredible isolate place. Would love to visit those you mentioned, possibly next year when we return to Scotland, absolutely love visiting Scotland though, it's a very special place! Thank you again!
Awesome love and like #4 have a great day ❤
Solid looking building of yesteryears. Great history with brutal killing happened there. Did you feel any paranormal activity in there ?The drone views makes the view spectacular. Thanks Alessa and Brett
Waoo amazing guardhouse 👍👍👍❤❤❤
The castle looks amazing, cool to see, that there are still so much left of the castle. I love that they added stairs and walkways, so you can explore the ruin.
Well, well , well. Cool little castle :)
Indeed it is! 🤘🏻
Wow, what a colorful history. Must have been hard living back then being under threat of constant attack. No wonder why they called it the dark ages.
Good place to explore!!!
*Not the fairy tale story you'd wish to hear. A gruesome history but well researched. Nice tour of the castle interior and aerial shots at the end. 👍*
