Has anyone else noticed all the different stonework, as it has not all been built at the same time.? Some parts are much older than others! It has certainly been an upperclass house with servants quarters in the top floor, and many of the fixtures, like baths etc. are all old fashioned but made of good quality material too! It must gave been some place when it was lived in, with many servants needed to ensure that it was spick and span! A part of history, which will soon be lost. Thankyou so much for showing it to us, and well done for not falling through the floors. .....................old Tich.
Nice big Mansion. Bathrooms are big. And Leah keeps disappearing. Enjoying watching you both. Even a fog visiter. Great explore. Thank you Alec. Stay safe.
6:02 the Belfast sink is missing, maybe salvaged they're not light things to carry off. Guess same with the handbasin 16:26 although it may of fallen off wall then salvaged. The lead S' trap is still there with a kink in it wc is half way through floor. (old plumbing is facinating to me). 18:05 The wc has a secondary vent just after the outlet/brass collar (aka thimble). Cistern possible enamelled steel-hard to tell. 18:21 Great close up of plunger style bath waste lift and turn. chunky taps possible 1"threads with brass nut & liners for lead- nowadays standard ones are 3/4"BSP.
I liked the big empty room upstairs because the fire-place has a place to put a kettle each side of the fire so in the winter you could be so cosy up there with a fire going & making cups of tea. Looking at the view out of the window observing the fog, rain & snow.
Thank you Alec. A wonderful explore. Fabulous Scottish stone. What a great place it must have been when it was being lived in. Sad to see it deteriorating. The sewing machine would have been great when new. There was the ubiquitous country stove too. Some of those sketchy floors looked like an obstacle course. When you were calling for Leah I was thinking “Where are you, hen? Lost?!” So many rooms. The bed head was great, as was that chaise lounge. The way the leather chesterfield shone it looked very new! Thanks for taking us with you.
Wow Exciting like a maze it just kept going. As per usual you and your your crew are adorable like little kids stopping and looking at all the cute little critters along the way!!! Thanks for filming this stuff , before whoever owns it lets is fall apart. Blessings for you All!
In America, entering and exploring abandoned buildings, regardless of how deserted or forgotten they look, are still considered trespassing if done without the owner’s permission.
Wow this house is fantastic so sad it’s been left to rot ! It’s absolutely huge so many rooms it makes you wonder how many family members lived here ! Thanks for sharing your explore Alec !
new to your channel thanks for showing us around as I can someplace where the family lived throughout Scotland not to say they lived in any places you explored yet but still good to see some of the places.
That was one heck of a mansion! Too many stairs for me,! Loved his wok hat he found , that was cute! This was just one humongous place! Ty for the tour Alec, loved it! Tc and stay safe.
Absolutely stunning... love the cast iron baths 👌 Andrew on his best behaviour for a change lol. I replied to you with my Facebook btw... hopefully get out with you at some point soon! Just a pity the damp has caused so much decay, stunning property
Lovely place loved all the exposed brick, was someone attempting to renovate at one time and stopped. Not that far gone and can be saved, the headboards were lovely especially the one with stain glass inserts
Liked the way you all were quiet as you went about. Adds to the atmosphere. That photo of the 3 of you was fab. I’ve never seen a slow worm here in the UK, it had a face😝.

This must have been stunning in its day.Beautiful scenery out the windows,sad to see these places just left to rot away.Thanks for exploring and sharing.👍👍
At 14:22 did you all notice the ceiling lamp swinging !? Way crazy for sure a spirit there. I know your not paranormal explores but still it was there.And a very spooky house. Great video Alex!
Whew! That was exhausting. Thank you for posting a great video to definitely distract me from the asinine nonsense going on in the U.S. I actually forgot it while worrying about getting over that fence!
great wee vid that nice settee was nice if am not mistaken it looks like a chesterfield and worth a hell of a lot of money it looked in pristine condition am amazed nobody has snaffled it lol😎😃👍
I know where you went as another explorer went there too. That was pretty funny him putting that wok on his head. A million comedians out of work...lolThanks Alec
Wow I’m so happy to have found the coco Chanel home. Earl of Westminster was her lover she spent six years with him. I’ve found pictures of this place in its former glory when coco Chanel fitted it out it was so glamorous. Coco Chanel was an avid salmon fisher woman.
Alec good to hear from you love you guys how the lock down your way are you able to work ? Get food and everything keep on truckin love your videos kate 😎
Nice place to explore. My partner and I and also my daughter have recently got into exploring aboned places but a lot seem fenced off or non accessible which has been disappointing. Any advice on where to find places like this would be much appreciated. 👍
My what a massive place, the stair case is awesome,really like the old Fire Wagon and that beautiful couch and bed.all the wooden doors and facings.was this mansion for one family?also is it very expensive to buy this kind of property there.love this explore..take care u guys had me biting my nails walking on those floors.take care.👍👍💗🇺🇸💗
Quick question, why is there a pile of dirt coming out of the chimneys in the houses you explore? Is the mortar holding the bricks and stone deteriorating or is it something else?
How the other half live, or used to live anyway! It must've been some place in its day. Even rich people would struggle to keep a big house like that. That old boiler must be really old, it looks awesome. Great explore again Alec.
Oh ok. Hi Alec. I thought this place looked familiar. Floors are still dodgy. That doll was sitting on the window sill then it was on the floor, did your friend Do That. Funny though, I don't remember those stuffed toys or that hose cart. Hmm! Weird. Thank you for the tour and take care.
NEVER ! £ 31 at least ! That old fire range would make a fortune if taken out whole and shotblasted , a lot of these big old places were built as private schools , she’s some place ok !
Any history of the mansion.....date build, family history .....why it was abandon ....seems it could be saved and resorted if someone with money cared to perverse the past
I've come here so many times and everytime it's different, why do people move everything. There used to be so much more things in there, I know it's shamefull but my insta DecayingNights has photos from a year or so ago and compare them to now in this video
@@jms-explore nice to meet you too 😊 I live just north of Adelaide.. It's a small world 😊 I'm sorta addicted to Alec's clips lol but don't tell him that haha.. He's a great bloke and genuine so I hope you enjoy his content as much as I do 😊

That red leather sofa could be worth a fortune , makes you wonder who just walks away from these old houses !
Hugh building must have been beautiful at one time. At this time wish I were there to explore . Thank you for the wonderful video.
It is so sad to see that place decaying.. Once a very fine place indeed. Thankyou for showing us.
Fantastic video Alec,what a huge place,bet it was grand in its hayday. Beautiful views. Thank you Alec.

Exploring with Alec
You’ll have to put a tracker on her when you’re exploring the bigger places! 😅

Beautiful old house! So large and so many rooms. Thanks for sharing!
In America, entering and exploring abandoned buildings, regardless of how deserted or forgotten they look, are still considered trespassing if done without the owner’s permission.
What a beauty it is, wish they would restore it. I thought you would get lost, so many rooms, nooks, and crannies.
It has good bones. Clean out the trash. Sell some antiques and find someone with deep pockets. Could be a fabulous Bed and Breakfast.
Lovely house, we were watching the fireplaces 😊 Awww you had your pretty friend along again and a new guy?
Great vid as per usual. Thanks Alec.
Thanks
This is why I love your explores you don’t miss a thing.Loved this so much.😀🌹
Another good explore Alec.
We look forward to all your uploaded explorations. Thanks again for sharing. Cheers 🍻
Thanks its appreciated
Another great explore Alec 👌, you certainly put a lot of effort into them.
Cheers Ian
Very good explore Alex love the old antiques keep them coming buddy

Absolutely stunning... love the cast iron baths 👌 Andrew on his best behaviour for a change lol.
I replied to you with my Facebook btw... hopefully get out with you at some point soon!
Just a pity the damp has caused so much decay, stunning property
Thats actually my mate Scott in this video 👌
Such a beautiful home and gorgeous old relics I love the views of Scotland 🌟🐛🐙🐒🐞🐀

Thanks and i know same I've never seen one myself that was the first time
There's a fine indoor fernery developing there. Will be really lush by next year. It would be worthwhile taking a look at the outbuildings some time.
Why dont you close the open windows when you see them to slow the decay of this grand old house down .
Seriously i think that all the time close the damn windows :)

What a weird spooky house with loads of stone walled rooms...the bedrooms are massive pity it's decaying
Great find again guys..thanks for sharing👍👍
Thanks
it looks like the mansion was built on top of buildings of a past era, dating hundreds of years ago.
Your adventures get more and more gripping :))) have fun.
Thanks
That room with the arches and the chaise 😍😭😍
Excellent explore. Some beautiful stuff inside. Well done.
Thanks
Another great video alec great building its a shame it will probably get demolished sadly and I loved the wee puddocks 👌👍
But why was it just left? Why is it not up for sale?
Toad of Toad Hall! Cool explore Alec, cheers. 👍🏻👍🏻
Love your channel Alec 😉
Cheers buddy
Their are cottage on this estate which are still lived in.
I was amazed to find this out
I am so totally lost! How many rooms, fireplaces, staircases? It just goes on and on! How old is it? Who owned it? So many questions!
My thoughts exactly!
No answers!
That bed board is stunning!!! Nice to see no graffiti for a change! I could never understand what people got out of that!!
This old house has been so grand. Pity it is left like this. It deserves restoration to a great Scottish getaway location.
Wow look at all the beautiful furniture left behind, some antique chairs. They could give away to people who needed furniture chairs .
This must have been stunning in its day.Beautiful scenery out the windows,sad to see these places just left to rot away.Thanks for exploring and sharing.👍👍
At 14:22 did you all notice the ceiling lamp swinging !? Way crazy for sure a spirit there. I know your not paranormal explores but still it was there.And a very spooky house. Great video Alex!
The green prickly looking thing is a fruit. Let it turn pink then peal off the outer and eat the inside.
Whew! That was exhausting. Thank you for posting a great video to definitely distract me from the asinine nonsense going on in the U.S. I actually forgot it while worrying about getting over that fence!
Looks like something got stuck in its throat and cut off its airway...
great wee vid that nice settee was nice if am not mistaken it looks like a chesterfield and worth a hell of a lot of money it looked in pristine condition am amazed nobody has snaffled it lol😎😃👍
Once the roof is leaking it starts to rot ceilings and the floors are next. It appears to have been used as a school at one time.
I would love to see historical photos before it fell to ruin.
I know where you went as another explorer went there too. That was pretty funny him putting that wok on his head. A million comedians out of work...lolThanks Alec
😂😂🙄
Wow I’m so happy to have found the coco Chanel home.
Earl of Westminster was her lover she spent six years with him.
I’ve found pictures of this place in its former glory when coco Chanel fitted it out it was so glamorous.
Coco Chanel was an avid salmon fisher woman.
How intresting did that Frog look
Loved it
I bet that place would make a great inn.. a country retreat.. Beautiful..
Alec good to hear from you love you guys how the lock down your way are you able to work ? Get food and everything keep on truckin love your videos kate 😎
Yeah still working and food shopping all good so far 👌
I wonder if someone stole the deep skirting as it was missing.
The house is wonderful.It’s massive.
Lots of antiques and old stuff in these houses.
Who owns this property? Who does one contact to find out or to restore and purchase these houses?
Nice place to explore. My partner and I and also my daughter have recently got into exploring aboned places but a lot seem fenced off or non accessible which has been disappointing. Any advice on where to find places like this would be much appreciated. 👍
All looking well thank you , you and your team m
There used to be loads of abandoned cottages up on the moors in Morayshire in 70s but most are now holiday lets for the well off.
My what a massive place, the stair case is awesome,really like the old Fire Wagon and that beautiful couch and bed.all the wooden doors and facings.was this mansion for one family?also is it very expensive to buy this kind of property there.love this explore..take care u guys had me biting my nails walking on those floors.take care.👍👍💗🇺🇸💗
Thanks
What a beautiful site! Maybe the frog was a prince waiting for a kiss. You always do the best videos, thank you.
Isn't it a princess ( who appeared immediately after the frog )
Quick question, why is there a pile of dirt coming out of the chimneys in the houses you explore? Is the mortar holding the bricks and stone deteriorating or is it something else?
How the other half live, or used to live anyway!
It must've been some place in its day. Even rich people would struggle to keep a big house like that.
That old boiler must be really old, it looks awesome.
Great explore again Alec.
Great explore Alex. Stunning untouched building and contents. What a bloody waste. Cheers, Paul
The sewing machine was there when you visited last year .
Oh ok. Hi Alec. I thought this place looked familiar. Floors are still dodgy. That doll was sitting on the window sill then it was on the floor, did your friend Do That. Funny though, I don't remember those stuffed toys or that hose cart. Hmm! Weird. Thank you for the tour and take care.
Yeah it was him lol
Great vid canny believe the amount of stuff thts aw been left
No one can afford to live in those old piles would cost 29 quid an hour to heat the place
NEVER ! £ 31 at least ! That old fire range would make a fortune if taken out whole and shotblasted , a lot of these big old places were built as private schools , she’s some place ok !
Omg what a set of stairs good find 😎 hello from Kate
Any history of the mansion.....date build, family history .....why it was abandon ....seems it could be saved and resorted if someone with money cared to perverse the past
Preserve the past?
wow this place is old and so cool thank you for sharing
Awesome video 👌🏻👍🏼
Thanks
Great video, where about is this place?
South Korea
How do I get in contact with u? I’ve got somewhere for u 2 go. Don’t see a video of this place I’ve got!
Would be nice to fix place up
Never seen a slow worm in scotland? never seen one. This place was a great explore Enjoyed it Thankyou again
Thanks Lindsey im the same thats my first seeing one too
The one you saw is death already. Sad.
Pelo efeito que o tempo esta agindo nessa casa parece que ja esta a anos e anos abandonada
Com certeza tem
Yes I remember this and nice to see no graffiti nice to see it again 🤙😎🏴
Very pretty place sad no one lives there
How are you finding these places
Hi Alec, what was the slate for on that wood burner? Very funny moments! I didn't know Popeye sailed to Scotland😉 lol
Wow that's abandoned? Why would anyone want to leave that place. Yo bad nice place and it's going to waste.
I've come here so many times and everytime it's different, why do people move everything.
There used to be so much more things in there, I know it's shamefull but my insta DecayingNights has photos from a year or so ago and compare them to now in this video
I noticed that there are less things .
Fantastic Mansión!👍❤️
I hope you go back and explore the outbuildings

National trust should snatch this place up
Is there a backstory to it, I bet it was stunning in its day
There certainly is, very famous people lived here. That bathroom contains the most famous bidet in Scotland.
A grass snake 😁 I learn something new most days, the house on outside looks beautiful but inside left
Looks like someone has already been in there. Lovely lamps!
Love the additional footage of the "Coco Chanel" mansion!
Really nice!!!! Id love to find my ancestors farm circa 1900s in Ireland 😀
I've never been to Ireland 👌
Shouldn’t be to hard if you ask around , it’s surprising what some of the old locals know , good luck .
