That's so lovely, I've been wanting one for ages and I'm definitely grabbing the opportunity. Thank you kindly xx
omg what happened to your eyebrows after using this??
Blessed young men to spend such a weekend in a glorious place.
Lucky indeed! Thank you for watching
@@NicolasFairfordNicolas, this was a beautiful tour of Cliveden House, it is gorgeous and just love all the interiors. I so appreciate and enjoy when you take us to these Hotels and take us on tours. Just loved the use of the grey wallpaper incorporated into this home and grey carpeting in some areas. The wood panelling in your room was exquisite and so cozy. What a wonderful bathroom and view from the tub. The breakfast buffet looked amazing, as the dining room. Thank you again.
Nicolas,
Thank you for sharing Cliveden House with us. An incredibly luxurious and spectacular hotel. How remarkable and special it is that these historic country homes are often converted into hotels.
You have become an excellent tour guide and presenter!
This place is absolutely lovely ❤. I would love to spend my birthday there!
Thanks for letting us see the beautiful place. 😘♥️✨🙏🏻 Love you.
It is my pleasure! Thank you so much
My husband is Frederic H. Sargent. We have prints of Sargent in our home. Of course the originals are in the museums. But it neat to be a Sargent.❤❤
I'm a professional painter - you're royalty to me ✨
Hi Nathan! Hi Nicolas! Thank you for the tour of this stunning manor house! Speaking of "if the walls could talk," quantum physics tells us that linear time is an illusion, so all the things that have happened in that house are still happening there right now, you're just in a different dimension from it! Mind blowing isn't it? I always think of these things when I'm in historical buildings.
Sort of correct. Truth is, nothing ever happens.
Love the way Nathan was dressed for his birthday. How utterly chic. Loved the white cravat like tie. Great taste.
Oh Nicholas you have taken my breath away with this one. How fortunate are you to be able to stay in a place like that, thank you so much for sharing this amazing house, the ceiling in the breakfast room is out of this world. Thank you to Nathan for his knowledge of the place.
I absolutely agree with u about lamps.
Thank for the tour, I will never get to the UK and I really appreciate your efforts to show off these beautiful places!
You are so welcome!
“Works so well together in harmony”.. as you and Nathan. Beautiful…. Everything..💕
Two young men enjoing such a charmed life. Thank you so much for sharing. You two have actually encouraged me to slow down and enjoy the fine, quiet times. Im on the hunt for a tea set and am planning a time out with sampling teas and making scones. Your old lady friend, Tamila in Missouri, USA. ❤
I'm ready to move in and read a book with a cup of tea! Everything is so colorful and magnificent. I love the lamps, too.
He’s gay. He won’t mind
Thank you for showing us a spectacular , heritage house and life as it was in its glory days.So rare today in modern, plastic , inauthentic world ❤❤❤
It's a hotel. It costs £ 710 per night for a double.
Thank you for sharing! I love the English country house aesthetics, and of course layering lamps and furniture! While watching the video I also thought several times that you are lucky to have so many magnificent buildings in the UK; buildings that you are able to visit and able stay in them. I would love to stay there.
GORGEOUS video. Nathan is a genuine sweetheart..... 😊
He is! We all adore him
I saw a t.v. programme about Cliveden but you showed it in much more detail so thank you. I think one of the most luxurious things would be to have a fireplace in the bathroom. We're coming to the end of a very hot and dry summer here in Western Australia, so it was lovely to see rainy weather and cosy fires. I wish I could stay at one of those stately homes.
You have amazing interview skills, Nicolas. This was really so pleasant to watch and Nathan is such a good friend.
Nicolas, what a treat to have several excellent videos by you in the space of a few weeks! You have outdone yourself! Thank you for this delightful tour❤
That means a lot - thank you so much!
Hi love you do visit some amazing places and show all of us thankyouxxxx
Being Canadian, I love to be able to tour these beautiful houses through your visits. Nathan seems like a wonderful friend and travel companion.
I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days and you know God loves us so much!.....So where are you originally from? I am David originally from Spain but currently living in Texas now....
John Singer Sargent is also my favorite painter. We are so proud to have an American painter who was able to challenge the wonderful French artists !
Absolutely gorgeous and beautiful place such house the beauty of English lifestyles. Love all the rooms and the halls . Nice staircase and pictures. The suite that you and Nathan was stupendous. Excellent job well deserved. You are good in exploring and experience and explaining details of these houses. Lovely view of the greenery and garden . Nice bathroom and shower. Thank you for taking us to enjoy your day and trip. Awesome job. God bless you today and Nathan congratulations on His birthday .
Thanks for your very kind words!
My parents worked for Lord Aster when this was still a private home in the 1960s .. My parents always spoke well of them and said they was excellent employers.
Did they get to meet John Profumo, Christine Keeler, Mandy Rice Davies and Dr Stephen Ward ?
OMG Nicholas this was such an incredible post, I feel such a delicious draw to the old English lifestyle (of the elite of course) but I can only imagine what it would be like to actually call a place like this home. It was lovely to see Nathan, the two of you are so classic and chic, a delightful duo. Thank for this it gave me a lovely transport to another era. I will look forward to more episodes such as this.
Here in the states Waldorf Astoria hotels are reknowned for being top notch luxury. I didn't know he was British. So beautiful!
Nicolas!
Bless you for sharing the Majesty of Cliveden. Simply wonderful decor!! Birthday wishes to Mr. Rollinson. Do enjoy.
❤F&A
Thanks for your kind wishes!
Thanks Nicolas for taking us through this beautiful estate with such a rich history. I just tried to book 4 nights for the end of August but the hotel is full. Instead I ordered one of the last 2 discounted FOREO UFO3’s so I can soothe my disappointment with it and look great for my birthday next month. Nathan you had a fabulous celebration at Claridges! We enjoy all of your adventures. Cheers 🥂 Frank and Jim from Chicago
Glad to see Nathan more often. He's a great addition to the videos and content ♥
Wow......breathtaking. Thank you so much for the tour.
so glad to hear that!
What an amazing treat!!! Thank You both for making it so special. There is something about you and Nathan taking part together in those videos, may be the artistic touch, or interests in historical art beauty ..or simply it is just such as a pleasure to listen to You both. It has made my day. Thank You xxx
That is such a kind thing to say! Thank you!
I agree.
That suite is stunning!! Love the lamps!
I love it too!
I love Sofie's seat! You're the sweetest, Nicholas ❤ Awesome video. Happy Birthday to you both! 🤗 Sending you love from Omaha. Nebraska!
Sophie looks so elegant in her chair. Cute 🐕 !!
Thanks for your kind words!
Nicholas, you keep outdoing yourself on these glorious videos of such extraordinary, beautiful places ❤😊. Loved the tour.
Thank you so much! I'm happy to hear you enjoyed this episode
Nicholas thank you for such a detailed showing of this magnificent home/hotel. It is so elegant and full of history.
Happy Birthday to Nathan. It will be lovely for you both to celebrate next yrs birthdays together at Cliveden House.
I do agree most people have forgotten how to dress for special occasions and relish in the art of romance and the elegance/ beauty that it brings to one’s life. It really is sad in so many ways.
Thank you both for sharing this special time and place.
Love Nathan as he is so charming and compliments you Nicholas as a great friend. Beautiful time spent viewing this video.
I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days and you know God loves us so much!.....So where are you originally from? I am David originally from Spain but currently living in Texas now....
Nicholas, what a wonderful tour you gave! 👏👏👏👏👏
Even I would travel from the US to see this place.
So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
Such a beautiful video tour Thankyou Nicolas and your lovely friend Nathan and belated Happy Birthday Wishes.
I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days and you know God loves us so much!.....So where are you originally from? I am David originally from Spain but currently living in Texas now....
Nicolas, you never cease to amaze me with the beautiful, educational hotel and home tours you have so blessed us with lately!! Thank Nathan for joining you, and I see that you both have the same taste in your surroundings. What a gorgeous place to just wander the halls and bask in the historical beauty!! Nicolas you should be a professional tour guide with your delightful voice and knowledge as you take your tours!! Thank you for all the work you put into your videos. I look forward to everyone. 🙂❤
I really appreciate that! Thank you so much ☺️
Nicolas,
You have done an incredible job with this video! Your description of the decor and each room, as you walked throughout the hotel, was incredibly detailed and very enjoyable. Thank you!
Nicholas thank you for taking us on the tour of beautiful Cliveden House! The portrait of Nancy Astor is beautiful too. She must have been quite a lovely lady.
I think she must've been!
Nancy Langhorne Astor, of Virginia, was not only known for her beauty, she was also witty, clever, and smart. She was the first woman MP to take a seat. Nancy was also antisemitic, anti-catholic, sympathic to Nazism, and a racist, even more than what would have been considered normal for her generation. Her sister, Irene Langhorne, was exceptionally beautiful and was one of the models of the "Gibson Girl". Irene was considered to represent the ideal American beauty of the late 1800s/early 1900s.
Absolutely divine tour! The artwork, the views and exquisite furniture, including a fireplace by the bathtub! Incredible!
I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days and you know God loves us so much!.....So where are you originally from? I am David originally from Spain but currently living in Texas now....
Thank you Nicholas since I will never get to see this in my lifetime, this was a real treat.
Stunning place! I love your friendship with Nathan, and you get to do all these beautiful things with him! Lovely!
Breathtaking estate. Nathan is a delight, and how exciting to celebrate your birthdays there. ❤
Thank you so much for this broadcast! What an absolutely gorgeous property. My dream is to someday travel to Europe and visit the places you've showcased in your broadcasts. Thank you again Nicholas, for allowing us to have a peek into such wonderful locations.
Nickolas, that was such a treat! I love English estate and county homes. This one is stupendous! It really looked and felt like someones home.
Thank you for sharing, and of course Enjoy🥂
Such a beautiful place. Every room just takes your breath away. Thank you very much for a lovely and informative tour.
Nicholas thank you for sharing this! It’s a great escape from the unbearable political news in the US. You and Nathan are a very sweet couple. I’m so happy for you! Your videos are so uplifting!❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for taking the time to give us a tour of some of the public rooms as well as the guest suites. I’m happy to hear that you and Nathan had an enjoyable stay. Even in the poor weather the Cliveden House is still a magical place to spend a couple of days. Stay well. 👍🙏😎
Thank you so much for sharing Nathan with us I know you've talked about him it was just wonderful to actually meet him much kisses to him of course and what a beautiful beautiful place that is
Nicolas!! - Wow!! - what a beautiful elegant home - is the architecture Edwardian style?? just watching you lifts one's spirit - I had to laugh when you mentioned the panning of the camera - dizziness came to mind!! - something you don't do - your visuals are always stunning - Nathan looks like a lovely soul - I like him - I always enjoy your Editorials - thank you for sharing - much love.
Edwardian? No offence to you intended, but since you are interested in architecture it may be helpful for you to understand the relation between architectural ‘styles’ and historical periods. English architectural history is typically categorized by era, which often-although not always-is so named for its monarchial era, so for example buildings constructed in England between circa 1070 and 1250 are generally referred to as ‘Norman’, and a subset of these buildings, most notably many churches and cathedrals from c. late 12thC and beyond are more specifically ‘Gothic’ in style; Tudor’ (late 15th to early 17thC) which includes more specifically ‘Elizabethan’ (1480 - c.1620); ‘Jacobean’ (the Latin form of James; King James ruled Scotland, and then both Scotland and England for a time, dying in 1625); ‘English Baroque’ (somewhat confusing as this post-Jacobean historical era covers the reign of Charles I, the Interregnum period of Oliver Cromwell, the reign of Charles II, William and Mary, and Queen Anne, and contains examples of several architectural styles; a mix of Classical Greek and Roman, Italian Renaissance, continuation of Tudor styles, etc); Georgian (1714 - the 1830s), which is largely typified by its resurgence of Classical Greek and Roman styles. And so on, and so on. The ‘Edwardian’ period in British history runs from just 1901 to 1910. Buildings built in this era are often a spin on English baroque (so Christopher Wren was an influence). So, while at any time one can ostensibly build in a style that draws from a *previous* era, one cannot, for obvious reasons, find an ‘Edwardian’ building built before 1901. The present Cliveden House was built in the Victorian period, in 1851. As far as its style, it is a blend of Palladian (essentially an iteration of 16thC Venetian neoclassical) and Roman 15thC styles. Hope this helps!
Thank you for this stunning editorial on the difference between Architectural styles & Historical periods - so happy you have informed me - I was born & raised in New Zealand - a young country compared to Britain & Europe with no such luxury of period buildings - Australia is much the same - I feel privileged you have opened up new & exciting doors for me - my guess - judging from the knowledge you have imparted to me you are a University Professor - I appreciate you taking time to write to me.
You're very welcome! As I hope my response implied, and as a further point, identifying the architectural and interior decorative styles of a building in relation to its age can be challenging, often because various owners of a building can (and often do) modify the building with 'upgrades', additions, and/or decor selections which in many cases can involve embracing the styles of a later or earlier period than the actual one of the building itself. As you may know, in the UK many historically significant structures are 'protected' by various statutes (you have probably heard of a building being 'Grade One Listed', or 'Grade Two Listed') which, in the interest of architectural heritage, significantly limit the types of changes to the building--most especially structural changes, as well as exterior changes to the building's aesthetic (type of window, roofing material, paint colour selection)-- that the owner may wish to make. Cheers. @@judithropata2269
Thank you so much for sharing with us all Nicolas 🌸💛🌸
The tour was absolutely breathtaking 💛
Nicolas, what a lovely video of Cliveden, a gorgeous home/hotel, I adored my stay there and cherished the daily walks through the Parklands and Gardens. Thank you for these tours to keep our memories alive!
I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days and you know God loves us so much!.....So where are you originally from? I am David originally from Spain but currently living in Texas now....
Loved your last two episodes with Nathan - its great to see both you possess so much talent and collaborate your talents together. The dogs are cute too! Thanks for taking us on always pleasant journeys of inspiration!

What a special place,your friend is so charming and sophistication itself,....both of you!🫖❤😃
Actually, the first woman to be elected to the Westminster Parliament was Lady Constance Markievicz (Countess Markievicz) and not Lady Astor.
However, being an arch Irish Republican, the Countess refused to take her seat in the English House. She was, though, the first elected female MP.
Absolutely beautiful!!, Thank you for the tour! It´s a pleasure to the eye and the soul to see the old oak paneling, the furniture, the rich fireplace and all the decoration. I love how they manage to combine the old beauty with the modern and practical bathroom. Amazing tour, thank you for sharing.
Thank you for the tour of this beautiful grand house! Very enjoyable!
Nicolas you live such an exciting life I could hear you talk about your adventures all day ❤
What a joy to see you and Nathan at such a gorgeous place. This was truly a treat! Thank you Nicolas for sharing this with us. It is always great to see Nathan.
What a gorgeous get away. Thanks for sharing such an amazing place with us. I think the misty rain added to the coziness of your visit. 💕
It's always a joy to see Nathan in your videos!
Oh my gosh, what a lovely video! Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
This is so beautiful!!! & Nathan is so lovely. Thank you so much for sharing this with us Nicolas! 💖🥰
Just stunning, thank you so much for this wonderful tour Nicolas. ❤
That was just lovely. It is hard to imagine people lived such elegant lives. I just love Nathan. I am amazed that you are allowed to bring your pups. Nicolas, you have a talent as an
interviewer bcs you dont interrupt your guest or ask embarassing
questions, putting them at ease. I hope you use this skill more often. ❤️
Nicolas, thank you for this great video. I really enjoyed this tour along with all the grand places that you share with us. I used to think that you made the ordinary
"extraordinary" with your creativity and inspirations, but now you are taking the "extraordinary" to new levels of grandeur and appreciation. You are outdoing yourself with each adventure. Soon you will be making us "look down to see heaven". God bless your giftedness, Robert.
You're very kind! Thank you!
This tour is delightful and so much fun..!! Thank you for sharing ❤
How lovely,thank you for sharing this and for meeting your friend
I love watching your adventures! Thank you for sharing ❤
Nicolas, Grand Duchess of Edinburgh, elegantly visits Cliveden House where he truly belongs. Especially, Lady Astor's room should have been his all along.
I always make a point of looking for your humorous comments now!
@@eds-egg. Me too, he’s very comical!
Quite right!
@@eds-egg Well, thank you!
This was so beautiful! Thank you for showing us so much, beauty, class and elegance! ❤
Wonderful presentation, thank you Nicolas. And I love lamps too!
Fantastic place and fantastic UA-cam. Thank you so much Nicholas always ❤
Such eye candy!!!!!!!!
Thank you both for sharing the spleandour of this magnificent building. What an amazing and beautifully decorated place.
LOVELY seeing Sophie! ❤
I know, a beautiful house is not complete without a beautiful pup❤
Guys, my life with you is becoming a fairy tale. I love you❤
Such a magnificent place! Thank you for sharing.
These two warmed my heart! So sweet!
What a wonderful, heartwarming interview, both of you with such great talent and passion for the design and event planning industry. Thank you for sharing this, Nicolas.
Thanks for your kind words!
Thank you for the tour , it's so beautiful place . I enjoyed the video so much .🎉🎉🎉
Nicolas, what a breath taking estate! Thank you for sharing! I would love to see you take and share more trips like this!
Oh Nicolas another fantastic video to another special place I know I probably will never get to but now I feel I’ve been, thank you!
It's a pleasure! Thank you!
Breathtaking! One of my favorite episodes from you, sweet Nicolas!
Nicholas, your presentations of Britain's best places are always an inspiration to me. You have the perfect balance of formality and casualness, blending the refined manners of Old England with an easy-going modern accessibility. I'm always happy to see and hear whatever you have to show and tell about the places you visit, as your knowledge of all things elegant is both broad and deep. I was mortified to learn from your video on Clivedon that the name is pronounced like "lived-in" rather than "lied in," as I have been mispronouncing it all these years I've known it- thanks for the correction. I also enjoy your fashion tips and learning about your experiences with the various men's toiletry items you feature. Thanks for sharing this information also, as many of these products are not too well-known here in the U.S. At 66, I'm one of the lucky men still with a full head of hair, and a face almost as smooth and cherubic as your own, and like you, I do my best to keep it that way! My husband and I are in the beginning stages of planning a trip to England and Scotland sometime in the next year or so, and have agreed that we simply must take you to tea at whatever your favorite place is in Ediburgh. And if you ever come to California, we would be delighted to show you around. I'm retired now but used to be a high-end tour guide myself, so I know my way around the state quite well, from the redwood forests of the north to the sagebrush deserts of the south. Thanks again for your excellent work, and Cheers! -Roger Osborne, Ventura, California
Thank you Nicolas this was wonderful, utterly civilised, beautiful and interesting. Happy Belated Birthday chaps and Nathan your party at Claridge's looked fabulous.❤🌹Always enjoy your get together's with Nathan, he is very sweet, can we have more please? ❤🌹
So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your kind wishes
thank you for showing so many beautiful details of the house...thank you for sharing
So lovely, Nikolas. I really enjoyed this tour.
I too , love lamp light . It does drive me a bit crazy to see the shades not straight .
Beautiful house / hotel . Thank you for taking all of us on your stay .
Does it not drive anyone else completely bats that 99% of the lampshades are crooked?! 😂
And the pictures in the bathroom weren’t level. Truly shocking that basics like this are neglected by Housekeeping. Clearly the types who stay here don’t much care about, or understand, class, quality and standards. Still, it’ll suit perfectly the types who DO stay there, many or most of whom will have more money - or borrowings - than sense.
@keving331 I agree on the housekeeping, but I think you're a bit harsh on the clientele! Maybe they're too polite to complain, I'll never have the funds to stay there, but I don't think I'd rummage up the courage to complain!...I'd probably straighten a few lampshades myself. The more money than sense comment did make me giggle, though. I'll end with, if your opinion of the "types" that stay in Clivedon is so low, this is probably the wrong channel for you.
Your right Nicolas, Cliveden House is magnificent. We have also stayed in many historical properties while away on holiday in different parts of the world but the luxurious detail all over that house is truly beautiful. It reminds me of a castle that we stayed at, in Ireland, called Lough Rynn Castle. So glad that you and your friend enjoyed your stay so much. Hi to you from Western Australia 👋
The paneling and detail is incredible
I think so too!
Hi Guys, I thoroughly enjoyed this episode, you have great chemistry with each other and it was such a treat to catch a glimpse of this wonderful property
This was so lovely! I think I’ll make a cup of tea now! ❤😊
How absolutely beautiful! The suite is gorgeous. Thank you!
Thank you so much Nicolas! Spectacularly beautiful hotel and it was so nice to get to know Nathan a little more. 🙏❤️
I think Nathan is such I great photographer precisely because he does have such an eye for detail. It was lovely to get to know him a little. Thanks so much!
Thank you for this, what an incredible place. My grandmother had a painting of Cliveden hanging in her home when I was a child, and I always dreamed of visiting. This is the first tour I've ever seen of it and I think if I visited I'd never leave. (I do plan to go someday!) You are so lucky indeed to have such lovely places to visit in the UK. It's a little harder to find such glorious homes - much less stay in them - here in the U.S. Thanks again!
Oh wow, how interesting that your grandmother had a painting of Cliveden!
Thanks Nicolas for the tour in Clivenden house, everything is truly spectacular and I also really like the fireplaces in every room. The very special bathroom and the red bathtub.... too beautiful 👍🏻❤️❤️Not to mention the view from the terrace with a view of the wonderful garden....ahhhh Thanks again Nicolas for sharing the beauty of these places! And then to the next video ❤️🙋🏼♀️
I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days and you know God loves us so much!.....So where are you originally from? I am David originally from Spain but currently living in Texas now....
