    Thanks Marek. St. Michael's Mount is a stunning gem. Long Crendon Manor in Buckinghamshire was recently offered for £7,000,000. Though it's a bit too dear, it's what I'd consider my dream place: centuries old, crumbly, misty, haunted, rose gardens and ancient oaks; so much better than some soulless penthouse in the city infested with pigeons.

    • @cdwc
      @cdwc  Рік тому +1

      Nooooo! Not pigeons. I always dread to think of the costs of the upkeep of those huge old places. You would have to open it up to the public which I suppose might defeat the whole point of having a big house and grounds away from everyone.

    So good to see St Michael's Mount again! Thank you My last visit there was over 20 years ago for a christening in St Michael's Mount Church with a walk across the causeway then an interestingly steep climb up to the church! (A Landrover was on hand if needed) then a boat back to Marazion. Dreamplace~West of the Isle, so i can get the Yarmouth to Lymington ferry to The New Forest & enjoy the stunning views of the Beaulieu River along the way. It's a lot easier to get to the New Forest from the Isle than where I live now!

    St. Michael's Mount does indeed look like an amazing place to live. I think I visited with my folks when I was little. I feel lucky to live where I do here in Campbeltown, Kintyre. I think my idealistic place might be Herm island in the channel islands where I went for my favourite holiday when I was a young teen. Thanks for the great video.

St. Michaels Mount is stunning. I went there with my Parents back in the 80's. You couldn't go in the house back then, but it was lovely to walk around the grounds.
