Joerg is an amazing filmmaker. You both have sensibility and ability to find beauty in the little things, and always convey tranquility to the anxious, which is a rare gem in UA-cam. My favourite channel. Kind regards from Argentina
I spent the first 40 years of my life going to Lavenham for Christmas every year as my grandmother lived in the Market Square next to the Guildhall. As you visualised, it was the most magical place at Christmas time. I had my 21st birthday party in the Guildhall. Loved your beautiful video which has brought back may wonderful and happy memories.
Are used to go to Prague every Christmas and it was like the most unbelievable magical fairytale Christmas place you could imagine on Earth. And then capitalism found it and it became endless Tesco's and Kentucky fried chicken and McDonald's... So sad, but I am so privileged to have known it when it was pure and magical...
Our English towns and villages are so special, as are the people who live in them. They are under serious threat from developers and councils all over England who are forcing new-build estates in their thousands. I pray we never lose our history and our lovely villages, once gone we can never get them back. I hope videos like this highlight how these places must be preserved. Beautiful video guys ❤
@@KirstenJoergThat's because they have to meet deadlines, and the work is shoddy. I've worked in construction on new properties that haven't been around that long. And I've found faults in every home. I'd never buy a new home or even rent. Not worth the hassle of problems throughout including outside the properties I've also had to deal with uh uh.
@@greywebs1944 not just the quality it’s the quantity. Theres something special about living in a small village or town. People know each other and families that go back generations. When hundreds of new people are thrown into the mix in one go, it totally alters the character of the place.
What a lovely village! And the history… so interesting. Thanks to the masters of The Crooked House for their video hospitality. You can truly tell this is a special place. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you, Kirsten and Joerg, for another wonderful video! The Crooked House - its history, and the house itself, is positively extraordinary! Lavenham must be known for its crooked houses, as the town surely owns bragging rights to more than just the one. It's easy to understand why the town was used not once, but twice, as the backdrop for two of the Harry Potter movies. It has lovely charm, and is richly steeped in history . If, or when I ever get back to England, I'll be sure to visit Lavenham, and The Crooked House! Thank you both, again... You've made my day !
What a generous couple sharing their very special home with us all! How amazing that it is the one from the nursery rhyme. I love that it exists in real life and is in such good hands. Kirsten and Joerg - every video you produce is extraordinary and lights up our lives ❤
You know this is so crazy.. just the other day.. I was literally singing this very nursery rhyme/ song to my mom and my sister.. no idea why or what we were discussing to prompt that song and now this video showcases the very house in the song/ nursery rhyme.. strange.
I think the turndown in fortunes was the saving of the town. With no money, they didn't have the wear withal to tear down or remodel! Therefore, it has remained a magical place! How wonderful to be able to walk the streets and see really lived in houses. There's a warmth there that you can not find in a housing development! Thank you very much for the opportunity to see this marvelous place. The Crooked House is exquisite!🎃🌠🐈⬛📚🌙🫖🦢
@KirstenJoerg Every time I think of it, I smile! And to keep on smiling, I am going to the Renaissance Festival on Saturday! I will think of both of you and how much you would get into the spirit and dress in costumes!
Kirsten, you are a natural presenter and I can easily see you (and Joerg) on TV. The Crooked House is gorgeous. I live in a 600 year old peasant cottage and often wonder how many people have lived and worked in the house. The scariest presence here at the moment are the spiders!
Oh absolutely I truly agree with you. Kirsten is a natural for TV presentation on all topics from tourism UK, to house and Garden and bringing in all the fabulous designer's of everything from textiles, wallpapers, haberdashery, . .. everything to help viewers to find out how to source XYZ, or find answers to various Style conundrums..and travel packages to all the wonderful b&b's. I can just see Kirsten. In her classic elegance and expertise.
You are too kind, thank you so so much! We asked Oli and Alex about spiders and they do have them in their house but they said that they keep the moths away so that's a good thing.
So looking forward to this ! I live just over 10 mins away from Lavenham and often shop there . Your channel is absolutely one of the most delightful on UA-cam and is a joy to watch !
I always love UK especially the old cottages , houses , antiques things house and churches even memorial garden, castles anything from the late 19th century below. I am very happy to have stumbled upon your page 😊 it’s so relaxing and I can see your love for what you do ❤ love , from the Philippines 🇵🇭
You and me could do a swap! The village where I'm from was first mentioned in 1066. Its full of stunning cottages and lots of moorland, three really old churches in 1 little village, castles near by. rains a lot though and has been snowing for the last 2 days 🤣
628 Jahre alte Haus und immer noch so schön ist ein Wunder die dankend den Menschen erhalten worden ist. Danke liebe Kerstin und Jörg natürlich, das ihr uns solche schönheiten zeigen könnt.
Sometimes in life things go smoothly in the right direction like a river flows in his bed quietly but straight to the sea.....This is the perfect house for the right people. Thank you both for showing it to us.❤
Being an American, it blows my mind to see such history. 629 year old home! Wouldn’t it be amazing if photos existed of the home from the beginning until today? I once learned on a video that these many homes in the UK where the 2nd story has a larger footprint than the first floor was done for lower property taxation which was based of dimensions of the structures footprint. Also, to stay proper distance from the street both based on lower level only.
Liebe Kirsten und Jörg, es ist so schön dass es solche urige Häuser noch gibt. Ihr beide findet immer wieder etwas wo so interessant ist. Super! Die Besitzer vom Crooked House sind so nett. Aber ein bisschen gruselig ist es schon wenn man darüber nachdenkt was da schon alles passiert sein muss:)). Eine tolle Geschichte, und schön dass die beiden das Häuschen zeigen. Die ganzen alten Häuser wären ein wunderbares Zeichenmotiv. Euer Hotelzimmer sah auch sehr einladend aus. Die senkrechten Balken in dem Flur sehen dekorativ aus. Aber der Hammer war auch die Toilette mit der wunderschönen Tapete und dem Schwanhaken. Es hat so gar nicht nach Toilette ausgesehen. So etwas findet man selten. Zumindest hier in Deutschland habe ich sowas noch nicht gesehen. Ich bin wieder total begeistert von eurer wunderbaren Arbeit. Vielen Dank, und euch ein schönes Wochenende. Ganz herzliche Grüße, Gabi:-)
Hallo liebe Gabi, ich habe deinen Kommentar erst jetzt gesehen, bitte entschuldige. Ja, es ist so eine besondere Ortschaft mit den schönen Häusern. Das Hotel war auch wirklich sehr nett und ich musste die Toilette dann einfach auch filmen. Ganz ganz liebe Grüße
Thank you Kirsten and Joerg for showing us Alex and Oli’s amazing home. What a great video. I loved hearing Alex and Oli’s tales of the ghosts and of the history of their wonderful home 😁
This was so fun! And your hosts had the right" spirit"! Or should I say," spirits "? You and your husband work so great together, as you always do, but especially this time with you as the hostess and him as the cameraman! Do more videos like this one! Although I love your home videos, too! Whatever you do, I am always happy to be your invited guest!
What a quaint & 'wonky' wee house in this charming village of Lavenham! The other houses & buildings in the Village are also really quaint, as well as, being quite quirky too. Quite a few of them looked slightly 'wonky' as well! Delightful! The Church of St Peter & Paul, along with the Churchyard, is really beautiful! Also, the Swan Inn you stayed at is so quaint & the wallpaper in the bathroom there truly is very unique & so beautiful! Thank you for sharing this delightful experience!
What a magical village! It absolutely feels like stepping back in time. The Crooked House interview was so interesting and I would love to be a guest there for tea. Thank you so much.🌸
I have really enjoyed The Crooked house with you both and the special owners that keep the house alive and vibrant and what a story how they were meant to live in this amazing historical house 🏡
Gosh what an utterly charming house! My dad read the nursery rhyme to me every night when I was little. Had no idea it was a real place. Thanks again for an enchanting adventure. ❤
Those of us watching from "the other side of the pond" appreciate seeing all the wonderful places you visit. Also, I love POTTERY. You two are so "quirkely (sp?)" special. Lib, North Carolina, USA
I don't know why UA-cam doesn't notify me of their new videos, lately I have to look for them myself. This episode was divine, I didn't know that the crooked house in the song really existed, which I read in a novel by Agatha Christie! Nice surprise!
Thank you for taking us there! The UK has such wonderful history - I can't get enough of the buildings & villages. Such a lovely couple & beautiful house! Thank you again! Love you all!
Lavenham! My favourite place! When doing my husband family tree I found some ancestors came from Lavenham, the Sewells. Beautiful town, have been several times
Wow what a special treat that was to see the crooked house!! Alex and Olly were most generous to share their home. That whole village is just magical. Thank you so much for always looking to film the many special places that you and Jorge visit and share them with us. 😍
Oh, I *knew* you'd be great at interviewing people on home/garden/travel topics! And Jörg's filming techniques look so professional! Lavenham is a really interesting place, where *every* house seems crooked. Loved the Crooked House and it's charming owners. Have a wonderful week, and stay cool 🇬🇧😊🫖🥵💕
Thank you for taking us along on the tour of that lovely town! The Crooked House was so interesting, and the owners were such a delight. I so look forward to your videos every week!
Just love the oldness of this village. Those homes have stood the test of time for sure. Wasn't that a delightful visit to the crooked house. Alex and Oli were so very kind. Had a great time spending a little time with you again. Take care
How much fun was this! Thank you for the tour, Kirsten, you must have been pinching yourself! A remarkable home tended to by remarkable people ❤ If I lived there, I'd be shopping at Hemswell every weekend:)
Wow!!! The architecture of the homes in this village (crooked house and otherwise) is absolutely amazing, stunning and breathtaking. I could fawn all day over the carved end beam at 18:51 alone! Thanks for taking us here, and showing us around. I loved this!
Thank you for sharing this. Despte the fact that parts of the village were used as part of a film set, the entire village looks like it has popped straight out of a fairy tale. The two gentlemen who own the Crooked House both look very dashing in their perood costumes. .
How wonderful that you visited this village.! It is so charming and peaceful. I'm so grateful to you both for sharing these gems with us! Please continue when you can and bring a smile and contentment to our hearts for a few moments of our day!😊♥
The village is beautiful and the house is delightful I love the old front doors and the carving on them ! They don’t make houses like that anymore ! We are lucky to still have so many !🏴🌹
This magical Crooked house gives me Harry Potter vibes, even before you showed us the real houses used in the movies.. And than the beautiful Swan with it's beams and high ceilings. All that in one video! How lucky are we?😁🙂
600 years old? Wow! I don't think there are over 600 years old buildings in the USA, at least in PA. I am aware there are ancient buildings in UK/Europe. Even though, I am not a fan of medieval buildings, but this is nice! Lol, I was planning to ask if it is haunted. I am so fascinated with paranormal, etc. The owners seem nice and awesome. Looks like it is your first interview with the owners of the buildings, your other videos are just of you two give a tour of each room, etc. You two did a good job on the interview and filming.
Thanks so much! We did some other videos with owners and a designer which are also on our channel. The Crooked House is so special, it was so cosy. We could love there as well :)
Oh such an enchanting video ! It was a pleasure to visit this medieval house I didn t know at all. The owners have a good heart to show their house and were so interesting to listen. This stunning village gives the sensation to walk through the past. A good moment to dream. Thank you for your videos so well filmed. ❤❤❤
Em primeiro lugar quero dizer que Alex & Oli são tão "lindos" que deveriam estar nas telas de um filme!!! A casa de mais de 600 anos é mais uma evidência de como nossa existência é breve e por último, fico me perguntando, como vocês dois tem ideias tão boas, sobre lugares fantásticos e chego à acreditar que mesmo os próprios "Ingleses", desconheçam. Beijos e já aguardando novas "aventuras". Rio de Janeiro - Brasil.
Another superb video. Thank you both for sharing your visit to Lavenham. What a beautiful village and the Crooked House is delightful and such an interesting history to the house. The owners’ love of the house really shone through, the house is in safe hands with them. Delightful. Your channel brings so much joy and is so interesting alongside your excellent filming. Thank you both. It’s such a delight to watch you both on your travels and in your home. ❤❤
Oh, the crooked house was very magical. What a treat. The rest of the town I really liked too. That sandwich Joerg had was, well I was wanting to see how he got his mouth around it. It was huge. Kirsten, what you had made me very hungry. It all looked so good. I loved the wall paper in the bathroom of the hotel, it was so colorful and lovely. I thought your room was special too. All those lovely beams. I do so thoroughly enjoy every video you make. I just love the old England you continue to share with us. I know I will never get there in this life, but God willing, I can visit after my death and fly around some. What fun! Thank you.
Kirsten, you have said in previous videos that you are not an artist. Every video I watch you are dressed in the most beautiful artistic clothing ! Artists and creativity comes in different forms, bravo!!!💃
What a wonderful video. Loved every moment. Thrilled to see the crooked house and hearing it's history, would enjoy visiting one day, though I would have to make plans because I live in the US. The tour of the village was great to see as well. I simply adore old homes and buildings. Thanks so much.
Hi Kirsten and Joerg this was so fantastic visiting the crooked house. Alex and Ollie were so generous in sharing everything about the house. What a story, also the way they met and bought the house, now It is full of fun and memories. Thank you both for showing the village also where you stayed. Joerg is a wonderful film maker. You both are very special people, and l am blessed to have found your channel. Thank you so much Kirsten and Joerg ❤💙
Bonjour Kirsten et Joerg. Merci pour cette magnifique visite encore une fois c’est génial,j’attends toujours avec impatience vos vidéos j’adore toutes ces découvertes encore merci. Je vous embrasse 😘
Omg 😳 wonderful couple in the crooked house. Bless them. Absolutely love your channel especially when you go antique looking around. 🇺🇸🇬🇧👍🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇩🇪🇩🇪
Oh Kirsten and Joerg, another perfect video! You two are stars! What a fun place and terrific owners. I sure needed a lift today and am always so grateful for you. Love from California! ❤️🇺🇸❤️🇬🇧
Oh guys this video was so much fun! I never knew about the crooked house but I knew the poem, I am so glad to now know what the inspiration for the poem was, thank you! That house was so unique and wow, ghosts, don't think I would personally want to sleep there even though they are harmless ones 😁. You guys are the best!!
Hello Kirsten and Joerg. I am a follower of yours and have grown to adore you both. I love this episode and have just watched it twice in a row. Thank you for sharing ❤.
You two really bring us to the best places, this was such a charming visit. I'm a firm believer in our angels looking over us, Alex & Oli's made sure they got the crooked house. I wonder if they've looked into everyone who lived there and where visitors. Just has me wondering if their own ancestors where there, over 600 yrs, there's been a lot of people thru their door. Lastly, I see you guys have 38K new subscribers already, good for you, I'm sure they're loving going where you take us.
Gosh what a lovely video and so evocative of the olden times where magic was in the air and poets were abounding! I was brought up on poetry and stories so this took me back to childhood memories round our old Tudor fireplace in the 50’s with singing round the piano, board games and story telling . A simple and magical time i was fortunate to have and your video gave me that same beautiful gentle feeling. Thankyou Kirsten and Joerg for your efforts and sweetness. The world is better place with your in it❤
This is such a lovely and interesting vlog. I could not see it when you aired it as my beloved dog crossed the rainbow bridge then. But this vlog really makes me smile so I thank you for that. I always check a map to see where you are each vlog. You are far from home this time. Alex and Oli are great hosts and tell a great story about the origins of the crooked house. I sure do remember that children’s rhyme. Thank you again for taking us along on yet another wonderful vlog.
What a fun, quirky house that was! I can see why the owners love it so much. As always, the two of you do such an amazing job of showing us around these gorgeous villages you visit! Honestly, I’m still smiling! Thank you! 😊
I found this gem somehow early in the morning and it totally made my day! 🌞🌞🌞 The possibility to feel the mood , the vibe of the house is totally because of the amazing way to tell and to show the story! Just difficult to describe the emotion I felt, watching this piece of history. Thank you so much! 🙋🌞✨✨✨
This was perfectly FUN!! What a quirky and marvelous village with its magical vibes and buildings. There’s Such a deep sense of history there and I would love to have a cuppa there too. The two young gentleman seem so very friendly and sweet. I LOVE seeing happy people together❤️ Kirsten, did you get a new color block skirt? It’s SO cute on you. Not sure I’ve seen it before. As always, thank you, I love this channel and With much respect
Did not know the story of the crooked man. It is delightful and the house is beautiful. I love it. Thank you so much for bringing this special story to your viewers.
Hello Kirsten & Joerg. Another place to add to my list of places to visit when I travel to the UK. Such interesting history of The Crooked House. How wonderful Alex & Oli are keeping its history alive. Wishing you a wonderful week 🌼
Just the sort of quirky, character-filled, historical and wonderful places one imagines you’ll find in England in abundance. I mean, the whole town looks a little crooked, and exceptional….so worth a visit. Alex and Ollie are lovely people and it’s so endearing that they are sharing their unique home with everyone. I loved this feature on them, Kirsten and Jöerg. I can’t wait to visit one day.
Wow! Definitely one of the coolest houses I've ever seen. My house is 116 years old and I've always been proud that it's old and the "connection" to the past. Well its brand new compared to this one. Excellent video!
Ihr überrascht uns immer wieder mit schönen Videos. Dieses Haus ist was ganz Besonderes und die beiden Gastgeber Alex und Oli ein sehr sympathisches Paar. Lavenham und euer Hotel hat mir ebenfalls sehr gut gefallen. Eure Videos machen immer Spaß, danke euch 😊
Another lovely & thoroughly entertaining video from the both of you! I just loved that you were able to visit with Alex & Oli & learn more about it! How wonderful that their hospitality continues to bring life and fellowship to this wonderful old house!! Vielen dank😊
Wow! A haunted, crooked house!!! We loved the story! Another place added to our list. Thank you! Alex and Oli are such a lovely couple and we can't wait to one day meet them.
You might like Long Melford (longest high street in England with two stately homes), Coggeshall beautiful vineyard and enormous medieval barn), Dedham (site of the famous painting 'The Haywain' by Constable which looks the same a few hundred years later!)which are nearby if you get the chance to visit
Alex & Oli make this house even more special! They come through as genuinely charming! I will have to add it to my list the next time I am in London!!!
What can I say about your videos they are a joy to watch it’s so lovely seeing a couple who really enjoy where they go and what they do please keep making them because it really makes my day I look Forward to seeing you both in another wonderful place thank you
I love what they said about challenging themselves to live more like people of the past rather than trying to force the house into the modern era. What love and appreciation that shows for such a beautiful and unique place!
I wish I could ‘like’ this video 100 times! Such a delightful house and the perfect couple to be it’s custodians! Also, you know your subscribers well! When you asked if it was haunted, I’m like, ‘YESSSSSSSS!’ Great video Kirsten & Joerg! ❤️
Great show today. Kristen , you’re a good interviewer. Jorg, you’re a great director. Gorgeous heartfelt video. And the two guys from the crooked house were so sweet. Loved it.❤🎉
That village is absolutely gorgeous and the crooked house is amazing. My father would recite the poem when I was growing up therefor I just had to go visit while staying with my cousin nearby. The crooked man was actually known as the village crook. That’s why he was so rich. 😂

Isn’t it a delightful house?
Thank you for taking us there! The UK has such wonderful history - I can't get enough of the buildings & villages. Such a lovely couple & beautiful house! Thank you again! Love you all!
My goodness!! Just when you think things can't be any better! Amazing fun on film!!!! Thank you, thank you 😊
A taste of beautiful old England . Love the history ❤
Another lovely film from yourselves , its so clear to see the pleasure you both get from visiting these wonderful places.Thank you both.
Thanks so much!
Lavenham! My favourite place! When doing my husband family tree I found some ancestors came from Lavenham, the Sewells. Beautiful town, have been several times
What a special place and video. Getting to know Alex and Oli's story was just as charming as their home. How lucky for you to go there!
Wow what a special treat that was to see the crooked house!! Alex and Olly were most generous to share their home. That whole village is just magical. Thank you so much for always looking to film the many special places that you and Jorge visit and share them with us. 😍
Thanks so much!
Oh, I *knew* you'd be great at interviewing people on home/garden/travel topics! And Jörg's filming techniques look so professional! Lavenham is a really interesting place, where *every* house seems crooked. Loved the Crooked House and it's charming owners.
Have a wonderful week, and stay cool 🇬🇧😊🫖🥵💕
Oh thank you! Yes, such a special place. The Crooked House and Oli and Alex are so special.
@@KirstenJoerg Someday you two will be famous, and we'll be able to say we "knew" you when!
Thank you for taking us along on the tour of that lovely town! The Crooked House was so interesting, and the owners were such a delight. I so look forward to your videos every week!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love this couple. What a great couple of guys. I bet they’d truly be so much fun at a dinner party.
Just love the oldness of this village. Those homes have stood the test of time for sure. Wasn't that a delightful visit to the crooked house. Alex and Oli were so very kind. Had a great time spending a little time with you again. Take care
Alex and Oli are wonderful,, so nice of them to preserve a beautiful part of history. I loved this video, what a special treat it was. Thank you !
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much!
How much fun was this! Thank you for the tour, Kirsten, you must have been pinching yourself! A remarkable home tended to by remarkable people ❤ If I lived there, I'd be shopping at Hemswell every weekend:)
Indeed we do! Thanks so much!
Wow!!! The architecture of the homes in this village (crooked house and otherwise) is absolutely amazing, stunning and breathtaking. I could fawn all day over the carved end beam at 18:51 alone! Thanks for taking us here, and showing us around. I loved this!
Thank you for sharing this. Despte the fact that parts of the village were used as part of a film set, the entire village looks like it has popped straight out of a fairy tale. The two gentlemen who own the Crooked House both look very dashing in their perood costumes. .
How wonderful that you visited this village.! It is so charming and peaceful. I'm so grateful to you both for sharing these gems with us! Please continue when you can and bring a smile and contentment to our hearts for a few moments of our day!😊♥
The village is beautiful and the house is delightful I love the old front doors and the carving on them ! They don’t make houses like that anymore ! We are lucky to still have so many !🏴🌹
This magical Crooked house gives me Harry Potter vibes, even before you showed us the real houses used in the movies.. And than the beautiful Swan with it's beams and high ceilings. All that in one video! How lucky are we?😁🙂
It really does! Such a magical place.
We have to thank you and Joerg ! Such a quaint special unique place to visit . I totally enjoyed it . 🙏🏼🌹
Thanks so much!
600 years old? Wow! I don't think there are over 600 years old buildings in the USA, at least in PA. I am aware there are ancient buildings in UK/Europe. Even though, I am not a fan of medieval buildings, but this is nice! Lol, I was planning to ask if it is haunted. I am so fascinated with paranormal, etc. The owners seem nice and awesome. Looks like it is your first interview with the owners of the buildings, your other videos are just of you two give a tour of each room, etc. You two did a good job on the interview and filming.
Thanks so much! We did some other videos with owners and a designer which are also on our channel. The Crooked House is so special, it was so cosy. We could love there as well :)
Oh such an enchanting video ! It was a pleasure to visit this medieval house I didn t know at all. The owners have a good heart to show their house and were so interesting to listen. This stunning village gives the sensation to walk through the past. A good moment to dream. Thank you for your videos so well filmed. ❤❤❤
Thanks so much!
Em primeiro lugar quero dizer que Alex & Oli são tão "lindos" que deveriam estar nas telas de um filme!!! A casa de mais de 600 anos é mais uma evidência de como nossa existência é breve e por último, fico me perguntando, como vocês dois tem ideias tão boas, sobre lugares fantásticos e chego à acreditar que mesmo os próprios "Ingleses", desconheçam. Beijos e já aguardando novas "aventuras". Rio de Janeiro - Brasil.
Thanks for sharing
What a beautiful place....and the Alex and Oli are the perfect owners for that beautiful house.
Another superb video. Thank you both for sharing your visit to Lavenham. What a beautiful village and the Crooked House is delightful and such an interesting history to the house. The owners’ love of the house really shone through, the house is in safe hands with them. Delightful. Your channel brings so much joy and is so interesting alongside your excellent filming. Thank you both. It’s such a delight to watch you both on your travels and in your home. ❤❤
Thanks so much!
Oh, the crooked house was very magical. What a treat. The rest of the town I really liked too. That sandwich Joerg had was, well I was wanting to see how he got his mouth around it. It was huge. Kirsten, what you had made me very hungry. It all looked so good. I loved the wall paper in the bathroom of the hotel, it was so colorful and lovely. I thought your room was special too. All those lovely beams. I do so thoroughly enjoy every video you make. I just love the old England you continue to share with us. I know I will never get there in this life, but God willing, I can visit after my death and fly around some. What fun! Thank you.
Kirsten, you have said in previous videos that you are not an artist. Every video I watch you are dressed in the most beautiful artistic clothing !
Artists and creativity comes in different forms, bravo!!!💃
Thanks so much 😊
What a wonderful video. Loved every moment. Thrilled to see the crooked house and hearing it's history, would enjoy visiting one day, though I would have to make plans because I live in the US. The tour of the village was great to see as well. I simply adore old homes and buildings. Thanks so much.
What lovely gentlemen Ollie and Alex are. What fun❤
They really are!
Hi Kirsten and Joerg this was so fantastic visiting the crooked house. Alex and Ollie were so generous in sharing everything about the house. What a story, also the way they met and bought the house, now It is full of fun and memories. Thank you both for showing the village also where you stayed. Joerg is a wonderful film maker. You both are very special people, and l am blessed to have found your channel. Thank you so much Kirsten and Joerg ❤💙
Thank you so much Marilyn! Wishing you a lovely weekend.

Here I am begging for beautiful autumn videos in the comics months ❤❤💜💜
Hope you both are doing well. Thank you for being the best part of my week.
*coming
A beautiful village and such a wonderful place to visit. Thank you for filming it and sharing it with us!😊
Our pleasure!😊
Oh guys this video was so much fun! I never knew about the crooked house but I knew the poem, I am so glad to now know what the inspiration for the poem was, thank you! That house was so unique and wow, ghosts, don't think I would personally want to sleep there even though they are harmless ones 😁. You guys are the best!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
How awesome! What a very unique house. Beautifully decorated.Ohh the tea room is beautiful.Another awesome video thank you! 😊❤
Thanks so much! 😊
Hello Kirsten and Joerg. I am a follower of yours and have grown to adore you both. I love this episode and have just watched it twice in a row. Thank you for sharing ❤.
Oh so kind, thank you so much!
You two really bring us to the best places, this was such a charming visit. I'm a firm believer in our angels looking over us, Alex & Oli's made sure they got the crooked house. I wonder if they've looked into everyone who lived there and where visitors. Just has me wondering if their own ancestors where there, over 600 yrs, there's been a lot of people thru their door. Lastly, I see you guys have 38K new subscribers already, good for you, I'm sure they're loving going where you take us.
Yes, who knows! They are the perfect people for the Crooked House. And thank you so much!
I have only recently found Kirsten and Joerg and I love their channel. Their charming films makes life more enjoyable.
Gosh what a lovely video and so evocative of the olden times where magic was in the air and poets were abounding! I was brought up on poetry and stories so this took me back to childhood memories round our old Tudor fireplace in the 50’s with singing round the piano, board games and story telling . A simple and magical time i was fortunate to have and your video gave me that same beautiful gentle feeling. Thankyou Kirsten and Joerg for your efforts and sweetness. The world is better place with your in it❤
Thank you so much!
This is such a lovely and interesting vlog. I could not see it when you aired it as my beloved dog crossed the rainbow bridge then. But this vlog really makes me smile so I thank you for that.
I always check a map to see where you are each vlog. You are far from home this time.
Alex and Oli are great hosts and tell a great story about the origins of the crooked house.
I sure do remember that children’s rhyme.
Thank you again for taking us along on yet another wonderful vlog.
I’m so terribly sorry to hear about your dog. Sending much love.
@@KirstenJoergThank you. ❤️
What a fun, quirky house that was! I can see why the owners love it so much. As always, the two of you do such an amazing job of showing us around these gorgeous villages you visit! Honestly, I’m still smiling! Thank you! 😊
Thanks so much!
They are amazing hosts and genuinely wonderful people, the house suits them so well, I'm sure they will look after it very well. Thanks for the video!
I can’t express how much I enjoyed this video. All I can do is thank you for taking us along, it was magical.
I found this gem somehow early in the morning and it totally made my day! 🌞🌞🌞 The possibility to feel the mood , the vibe of the house is totally because of the amazing way to tell and to show the story! Just difficult to describe the emotion I felt, watching this piece of history. Thank you so much! 🙋🌞✨✨✨
Yes! This is my first ‘live’ video of yours since discovering you last Wednesday! I’m obsessed now! I love you!
Thanks so much!
This was perfectly FUN!!
What a quirky and marvelous village with its magical vibes and buildings. There’s Such a deep sense of history there and I would love to have a cuppa there too.
The two young gentleman seem so very friendly and sweet. I LOVE seeing happy people together❤️
Kirsten, did you get a new color block skirt?
It’s SO cute on you. Not sure I’ve seen it before.
As always, thank you, I love this channel and
With much respect
So glad you like it! No, I‘ve had the skirt for many years actually.
Such a historic and fun village. Thanks for taking us along! 😊
Our pleasure!
My compliments to the stunning video. Perfect music so enjoyable to watch. And listen to your voice is beautiful. Kirsten❤❤😊
Thank you so much!
Did not know the story of the crooked man. It is delightful and the house is beautiful. I love it. Thank you so much for bringing this special story to your viewers.
It is a USA child's poem called a "nursery rhyme". Like "Hickory Dickery Dock" etc.
Thank you for inviting me to Lavenham - so special
!! I enjoyed all
Of your video and have learnt a lot about Lavenham so unique 🌹❤🤗
Thank you so much!
Hello Kirsten & Joerg. Another place to add to my list of places to visit when I travel to the UK. Such interesting history of The Crooked House. How wonderful Alex & Oli are keeping its history alive. Wishing you a wonderful week 🌼
Just the sort of quirky, character-filled, historical and wonderful places one imagines you’ll find in England in abundance. I mean, the whole town looks a little crooked, and exceptional….so worth a visit.
Alex and Ollie are lovely people and it’s so endearing that they are sharing their unique home with everyone. I loved this feature on them, Kirsten and Jöerg. I can’t wait to visit one day.
Wow! Definitely one of the coolest houses I've ever seen. My house is 116 years old and I've always been proud that it's old and the "connection" to the past. Well its brand new compared to this one. Excellent video!
Oli & Alex , delightful , special people in a unique house.
We couldn’t agree more!
Such a beautiful place. Thank you so much for bringing to us beautiful places. Continue your journeys in this wonderful country. ♥
Ihr überrascht uns immer wieder mit schönen Videos. Dieses Haus ist was ganz Besonderes und die beiden Gastgeber Alex und Oli ein sehr sympathisches Paar. Lavenham und euer Hotel hat mir ebenfalls sehr gut gefallen. Eure Videos machen immer Spaß, danke euch 😊
Oh vielen tausend Dank liebe Anita, das ist so lieb. Ja, Lavenham ist toll und Alex & Oli ganz besondere Menschen.
Another lovely & thoroughly entertaining video from the both of you! I just loved that you were able to visit with Alex & Oli & learn more about it! How wonderful that their hospitality continues to bring life and fellowship to this wonderful old house!! Vielen dank😊
Wow! A haunted, crooked house!!! We loved the story! Another place added to our list. Thank you! Alex and Oli are such a lovely couple and we can't wait to one day meet them.
Thanks so much for your amazing support, we had so much fun creating the video!
You might like Long Melford (longest high street in England with two stately homes), Coggeshall beautiful vineyard and enormous medieval barn), Dedham (site of the famous painting 'The Haywain' by Constable which looks the same a few hundred years later!)which are nearby if you get the chance to visit
What a beautiful village ! Thank you for allowing us to discover it 😍 This Crooked House is just amazing !
Glad you enjoyed it!
Oh wow thank you so much for sharing, I loved the wonky house and ghost stories, what a great place to live 😊❤
It really is! Glad you enjoyed it!
Alex & Oli make this house even more special! They come through as genuinely charming! I will have to add it to my list the next time I am in London!!!
So ein schönes Haus. Toll ,das ihr es von drinnen schauen durfte.
Danke für das tolle video.Lg 😘😘
Das freut uns so, vielen lieben Dank!
What can I say about your videos they are a joy to watch it’s so lovely seeing a couple who really enjoy where they go and what they do please keep making them because it really makes my day I look Forward to seeing you both in another wonderful place thank you
Thank you so much!
I can't thank you enough for all your lovely videos,so many memories of England.Take care of yourselves love from Ann Italy 🇮🇹🥰🥰❤️🤗
Thank you so much!
I love what they said about challenging themselves to live more like people of the past rather than trying to force the house into the modern era. What love and appreciation that shows for such a beautiful and unique place!
Joerg...to film that in natural candlelight is quite a feat..and most beautiful.
So glad you brought up it being haunted. I was hoping it would be!!
I wish I could ‘like’ this video 100 times! Such a delightful house and the perfect couple to be it’s custodians! Also, you know your subscribers well! When you asked if it was haunted, I’m like, ‘YESSSSSSSS!’ Great video Kirsten & Joerg! ❤️
Thank you so so much!!
It’s so Nice to discover another vidéo who carry us in beautifull villages with unique people ! Bravo à vous 🧡
Thanks so much!
Great show today. Kristen , you’re a good interviewer. Jorg, you’re a great director. Gorgeous heartfelt video. And the two guys from the crooked house were so sweet. Loved it.❤🎉
That village is absolutely gorgeous and the crooked house is amazing. My father would recite the poem when I was growing up therefor I just had to go visit while staying with my cousin nearby. The crooked man was actually known as the village crook. That’s why he was so rich. 😂
