Warm regards,
Luke & Julie
Viscount and Viscountess Hinchingbrooke 👑👑
Luke and Julie. Thank you so much for taking the time out to show us the whole of Mapperton. It is so stunning! As a long time viewer, I enjoyed so much having a virtual tour of your home and estate. I watch your videos every week on all your channels and they are a great part of my day. Thank you again for all you do. From a loyal fan from the states! Anne P
The gardens are absolutely beautiful! I love the Countess every time she is on your channel. I may never make it to England from my home in America but if I ever do, Mapperton will be my first stop! How fortunate you are to have so much family history on this fantastically exquisite estate. So much history and preservation!
Love, love, love the garden segment with the Countess and Steve! We need more Steve! ❤
What a gift you gave into the cold Finnish winter! Thank you! Special warm hugs to the vivid Countess, so nice to walk with her thro.ugh the gardens.
I love the beautiful picture of Luke’s mom in the Tudor bedroom. ❤
Love love love the segment with your mom and Steve in the gardens. I felt like I was walking in a dream world with some sweet friends.
Wonderful!! The house is gorgeous and the gardens took my breath away. My mum was a British war bride from Manchester; she went "home" numerous times and took my sister and me to visit. We toured lots and spent time with her family as well; we stayed at some lovely homes while there. Thank you for opening to let us see your estate!
Love The Countess! 😊
Loved seeing the rooms in which I’ve had the incredible privilege of staying. Thank you for sharing this wonderful video of Mapperton ❤❤️and the stunning gardens 💐.
Please tell us more about your stay. I’d love to hear about your stay.
Birds of Paradise are all over here in Southern California, I love seeing them. Being from Chicago, the Birds of Paradise are grown in pots over there; they’d never survive the winter if they’re planted in the ground. Mapperton has beautiful gardens. Thank you for the tour!❤Your Chicago girl!
So relaxing. It takes me back to my childhood. How lucky were we to have beautiful gardens to enjoy.
What a lovely home you have Luke and Julie. Thank you for the tour❤
So Happy you are all there for me to watch and wonder with you! It Helps me to keep my mind off my pain without having to use medication! Thank You! MAHALO NUI LOA!❤🌈
Thank you. I adore Countess of Sandwich.
We appreciate the effort you guys do for us all! Thanks for the TOUR!!! we enjoyed it
What a fantastic episode. Thanks Julie and Luke. Loved it when you stacked the bike Luke 😂
Thank you Luke & Julie for the tour of the house and farm and to your Mum and Steve for the tour of your magnificent gardens, they're are just gorgeous. The tour of your outlying farms and pasture by you Luke with Ben was just lovely, what magnificent countryside, so green.
Ok Ok ... Inside the house is gorgeous and tasteful indeed "WELL DONE." The outside ... The "rewilding" ... SPECTACULAR! I want to cross the pond and stay ... explore.
The finished bathrooms and bedrooms are just beautiful and beautifully appointed. The new mattresses, as Luke pointed out, look so inviting!! Each room has the most beautiful views and vistas. This tour really showed Mapperton off stunningly. Luke, your Mum and Steve were so entertaining to watch walking around. Your Mum has such vast knowledge of not only furniture, but flowers in the garden. I love your estate and all of the land, it is truly magical!
The Earl who sold Hinchingbrook was very forward thinking! It probably saved the family finacialy! He clearly had enough to maintain Mapperton and bring a lot of fine things from the castle to the new home. He was fortunate to have found a buyer to make this happen.
Beautiful home and country estate thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing the spectacular property around Mapperton. Stunning ❤
Luke looks like dad! Hope you know how we love hug you Julie!❤😊❤
So stunning! I would love to visit Mapperton! So much love and pride has been placed upon this beautiful historical place. Julie, you're amazing, and I'm truly invested in learning more about Mapperton! ❤.......😊
Simply amazing, thank you for this spectacular tour! Loved it!!
Luke and Julie, have you ever considered hosting a "Detectorval?" It's a festival of metal detectorists who would camp out over a weekend and detect in designated fields. There's a large one in England each year. With all the history on Mapperton, even going back to the iron age, and all the farming, surely wonderful things can be found.
And Time Team.
Luke ever consider with all the care your giving the estate that you turn the Marsh farm barns into greenhouses for growing,selling and use plants of all sorts on the estate.
Luke is having fun riding his bike through the puddles! He is soaked !
Oh I enjoyed this ramble. The rooms were sumptuous but really comfortable and welcoming. Loved all the bathrooms and toilets 😊😊🥰🥰 do you get to try them all out? The garden ramble was informative and beautiful and the relationship with Steve and the Countess is divine. Finally, the rewilding self-tour and travels over the estate are amazing and make it a bucket list option in life. Here's hoping I can get to the UK in this lifetime. Thank you for sharing and making the estate so accessible. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Bravo! On the cycling
Oh so beautiful! Thank you for sharing your home. The bedrooms are so inviting & the views from each are stunning! I enjoyed commentary on items saved from the attic & Luke’s comments on family photos & furniture pieces. It’s great even though they are so much furniture in such a great house there are memories in some pieces. The tour of garden w/Luke’s mother & Luke’s land tour were beautiful. What amazing scenery!
I love the ferns in the banks and gullys... it's giving JURASSIC PARK 😊
Stunning! You two are just delightful! ❣️🙏❣️
A beautiful home.❤you’ve done so much work.
Brilliant video. Thanks to everyone concerned.
Thank you for this. I am even more fired up to get there. I would spend my whole time there and not travel around England. 🇨🇦
Thanks garden tour mom! ❤😊❤
The walking path makes the walk safer for sure!
Wonderful to look at and breathe in… quite a nice place to be. I walk our property for the wonderful smells. I have found several wild plants I never knew about but thanks to google I have learned…lol.
Julie and Luke nice video,is beautiful dinner room.The libtary is nice with histtory books.
I love the rooms country house but so comfy and great thunder box loos 😅 tour of the garden was so lovely no idea how your mum remembers all the plant names !
Could i ask what brand of pillows you use I am so sick of buying pillows that dont last and yours look so comfy ?
Thanks for sharing ❤
Sooo excited for this video!!!
Hubby and his rewild!❤😊❤
Loved the tour inside and out! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Your crooked lampshades drive me crazy!! Still love to watch!!
What a wonderful garden! ❤❤❤
Could you try out the Miyawaki Method of woodland creation that will both keep the deer off and kick start the whole regeneration. You could have a good size plot with volunteers planting it all out over a weekend. Would be a fun and worthy thing to do.
I love this 😊
Love countess tours ❤️
36:54 An Iron Age fort ? I wish you'd call Time Team as you and they are my two favorite programs.
I love watching your videos, and they always give me ideas. Today I was particularly interested in the hiking path of Luke's, and once upon a time I would have loved to walk it, but after 3 heart attacks I'm not able to anymore, at least not without benches to rest on along the way. And that got me thinking, because I'd still love to go on the path, and I'd happily rent (at a decent price, say 30-45 pounds) something slow and easy like a golf cart to traverse the area. I know they're expensive to invest in, but the electric ones could be charged on a solar charger, and it might be a nice idea eventually for those of us that are a little mobility challenged or families with small children. Just a thought, respectfully submitted, and commenting for the algo.
Your deer fences need to be higher because the deer that I know of here in Pennsylvania can leap over a 4 - 5 foot fence .
I'm originally from Pennsylvania and have seen deer run crossways thru grape vineyards, leaping over each row! Some rows are close to 6 feet!
If you cut the ivy at the base the upper parts should die and loosen their grip. After they die off a bit you can remove the it with a little less damage to the structure.
You should do round tree fences. Deer don't understand them and you get more area with wire you have.
Would you consider establishing e-bikes hires with a trail where you went Luke and maybe extending it further into the estate If you use the big chunky tyre e-bikes which are suitable for muddy terrains the tours could almost run all year 😊. They’re so popular now and if the e-bikes can be hired at mapperton that would bring many people to the estate for the experience. 🚴🚴♀️🚴🏿♂️🚲
I have a question that maybe another YT can answer.
When it comes to Alberta’s letters, how did all of her letters come into her possession? Was it customary for people to ask for their letters later in life for archiving purposes?
Do you ever sleep in the other rooms. In my previous house before I used to have my main bedroom but every now and then I'd sleep in the other rooms just for a change of scenery and just because I could 😊
I love the tour of your home and the tour of your gardens....but in what part of the house does Luke and you live?
And where does Luke's parents live? Is it on the estate or is it a place close to Mapperton?
Where are you living, is there another privat wing or house on the estate? Thanks for the Video!
❤❤❤❤❤
Love it but we didn’t get to see your bedroom!?
🙏
Are the Ai apps able to identify the roses for you? There must be a photo match thing
What is the maker of the mattresses for the quests?
Will some of Julie’s ancestors be honored eventually?
So, if I understand well, a stay at your magnificient manor is only possible when participating in the "Grand Historical Tour" ? Or is it possible to rent one of those rooms for i.e. a week or two?
Do you think Woody and Twiggy have gone on a trip to the Czech Republic - where beavers have unexpectedly built a dam, saving the country £1.2 m?
I have great-grandparents on my father's side that are Lindsey's but I'm not sure about the spelling on your side
Julie us so narcissistic that she can't say one single sensitive remark for the trauma the states are in. It doesn't mean getting political. It would of just show she had a Soul.
