You took the words right out of my mouth "jaw dropping" I think if I were to visit in person it would just stop me in my tracks. The heaven room is just that, Heavenly😇 now I remember it from the Da Vinci code. Thank you so much for sharing your passion. Heritage needs to be preserved and we need more people like you to do just that. Another one on my bucket list. Hope to make it one day. Greetings from Ontario, Canada🇨🇦❤
I’m an American. My ancestor was the son of Brownlow Cecil, 8th Earl of Exeter. His name was Robert Burleigh the 1st. He was the younger brother and never inherited the title of Earl. He migrated to the colony of North Carolina and became a furniture maker where he eventually joined the NC militia and fought against the British. Very interesting life story.
Hello! Love your video from BURGHLEY HOUSE ! We were enough to visit this mansion back in 2000 , what beautiful memories we have from there . Thank you for reminding us ❤️❤️
This Home has been on my personal list for some time - your video has helped elevate it to first place. Thanks for doing this and your excellent narrative.
I had the good fortune to visit Burghley House with Harry (Henry) Floyd, a friend and classmate from New Mexico Tech, in winter 1979. Harry's mom was descended from William Cecil, who built Burghley House. Harry knew all the secret passages and other areas not open to the public and we had a great time exploring everything. My only regret was that the snuff bottle collection was not on display at the time. Burghley House is indeed a treasure!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such informative and beautifully done videos. I am visiting England in 2024, and I wasn't familiar with Burghley House before yesterday, when it was suggested for a stop on my trip. You have given such an excellent overview, that I not only want to rewatch P&P, but also DaVinci Code so I can enjoy some of the opulent parts of the estate before I come visit! I am subscribing to your channel and will watch more of your videos!
Goodness, those interiors are something. Whatever that Verrio guy got paid, it wasn't enough. You recommended to me that I add Burghley to my bucket list...and I believe I shall. Next time I get to the UK...
William Cecil was my 12th great grandfather on my father’s side. I live in Australia now having left the UK as a child, so it is thrilling to learn about some of my family’s history. Thank you so much … 😁
It would be interesting if you made some videos about some of the incredible English Country Houses that no longer exist that were destroyed after the wars, if you could find pictures. That would be very interesting inspite of being very sad.
Dude, you know I love your videos. You have the most engaging manner. Be that as it may, I always remember that old real estate maxim, “location, location, location.” I always wonder about these grand houses and where they sit, today. Sure, I may live in one of England’s grandest Grade 1-listed homes, but does my house sit across the street from an Aldi or public housing? I mean a lot can happen in a few hundred years. So, here’s my query: You may choose a three-hundred-year-old grade-listed pile which now abuts a Tesco or a new mansion in Surrey? Me? I will be in Surrey with my A/C. I am American after all and you’re most welcome to spend the summer…
Burghley House was built by William Cecil, 1st Baron Burghley KG PC (13 September 1520 - 4 August 1598) who was an English statesman, the chief adviser of Queen Elizabeth I for most of her reign, twice Secretary of State (1550-1553 and 1558-1572) and Lord High Treasurer from 1572. He modelled Burghley House on the once majestic and now lost Richmond Palace, which was a royal home to British royalty long before Buckingham Palace even existed. William Cecil frequented and stayed at Richmond Palace. As a mark of loyalty and in case he would receive the monarch as a guest, he cleverly modelled Burghley House on Richmond Palace, so the monarch would be in familiar surroundings and their court and entourage would seamlessly adapt to the surroundings. When one looks at Burghley House, one actually looks upon Richmond Palace.

Hi there. There are actually three tracks, all from Epidemic Music. The first is called 'Air on the G String', the second 'A place to call home' and the last 'As history unfolds'. Hope you enjoyed!
If the title says Burghley House then the video should be about Burghley House. Instead we get: What is a house? Who was Lord Burghley and what was the history of his entire life?
I have never seen an uglier assembly of tacky murals, paintings and furniture. Compare this to Amboise, Chambord, or other French chateaux and see what elegance and beauty is all about.

Well done mate, thanks for sharing, cheers..
Absolutely love Burghley, the five star horse trials on the grounds are spectacular and I love the connection to Chariots of Fire.
It’s great isn’t it! I have really enjoyed seeing
It in the latest series of the Crown!

Mikey! You got a haircut! 😆
Great video mate!
I have been known to get a hair cut from time to time 😂. Thanks very much mate!
Breath taking but i have a question..being American, did this grand home have tenant farmers, love stock and grand gardens
I know this opulent house from the 2005 Pride and Prejudice film. It is the setting of Lady Catherine De Bourgh's home.

This is also the new Wayne Manor in The Flash
Sure is 👍
HOUSE!!! You never say home, never, ever
The sterling “wine cooler” is properly called a Monteith.
Thanks for sharing David! It is certainly very beautiful 😊

What’s the soundtrack in the background
Hi there. There are actually three tracks, all from Epidemic Music. The first is called 'Air on the G String', the second 'A place to call home' and the last 'As history unfolds'. Hope you enjoyed!
@@Xploreheritage thanks
My pleasure!
If the title says Burghley House then the video should be about Burghley House. Instead we get: What is a house? Who was Lord Burghley and what was the history of his entire life?
Grandest ?! What metric was used to give this luceferian temple that name ?
Thats definitely a emotional unearned title.
Many people feel that it is best, to remain neutral, when it comes to The British Empire and its royal family!
I thought burghley lived in Hometown

WHAT THE HELL DO YOU KNOW BLOKE
YOU ARE JUST A COMMONER
I have never seen an uglier assembly of tacky murals, paintings and furniture. Compare this to Amboise, Chambord, or other French chateaux and see what elegance and beauty is all about.
The decoration is certainly not to everyone’s tastes as I say. These murals are certainly impressive though, especially considering their age.
@@Xploreheritage I'll take the Rafael Stanza or the Sistine
@@georgesclermont1911 Fair enough 👍
Your try to talk in here place
I want that kind of house
