I thought Mary Ann was going to have a coronary while she was running around trying to do everything. The garden really is very intimate and charming. I can only wish them the best.
I think if your children are going to fight over your beautiful home and gardens after your deaths. You should sign them over to the National Trust so everyone can enjoy what you have created in the future. Your beautiful life work should live on.
Seeing their love for this place I'm desperate to visit this place with my family someday in the future I hope I can I want to Just love the love they have for this place ❤
What a wonderful home and a great couple living their dream. I wish they could have kept it without worrying about profit and just enjoyed their vision and dream coming to life.
It’s always hard to see the forest thru the trees, when one is in the forest. It’s obvious the couple is beyond tired. I agree about the family meeting & have everything above board. Where there’s a Will, there’s a family. Hope it all worked out for them.
They should consider hosting parties and weddings and such also. Just watching this exhausted me. I cannot believe how they have worked. I would consider anything for money to hire staff, if I were them!❤
Pre prepared picknick box 5 qid per person x 150 people = 750 quid,entrance fee 5 quid = 1500 quid in one day. Sculptures rent space 50 quid per day etc. Get organised!
I so Love this home and garden. How lucky for the owners to wake up to such a beautiful home with so much history. Their children/grandchildren should be so lucky to inherit such a lovely place and to share it with others, especially those that are welling to pay for a visit, I know I would.
If I were them, I'd leave the house to some organization that was willing to run it strictly for profit. It is obvious the daughter has little interest in it.
The British government has taken over hundreds of properties, The National this and that organizations oversee the tourists, tours, cafes, rentals, events side of things, but most are not 'name' places or in the popular, busiest tourist areas. A shame, yes. No easy answers. I SO HOPE this lady has ideas and that they work.
Alistair sadly died in in 2018, in early June 2020, the property was listed for sale at £5 million, and sold in October 2020 to its new owners for £5.25M.
Sounds like it worked out so far. She got money out of it, and can retire from all that work. The company that bought it seems to be running tours of the house and gardens, so the house's history and their hard work can be shared with the public.
It's almost like paradise surely,coz' many years ago I was lucky to visit the place but not so lucky to work there as a gardener.The manner how Marianne treated her family, the way she talked to the employees was the worst type of this kinda.Everyone worked hard,Marianne too,but it was not enough to keep the land,she should have had to change many things to survive.
Upon her death, Maryanne Robbs had arranged for "the Butcher" to cut out her heart" and plant it in a beautiful box underneath the backyard stone fountain??? GRUESOME!! Sentimental, I guess (??)..... BUT VERY CREEPY ( and possibly illegal..)
These people seem like they don't want to give an inch. Stubbornness is going to cause them to lose this place. They should just donate it to the national trust or leave it to ALL their children whether they want it or not. Let them sell it or give it away.
Oh please do not worry about the men are being old and crumbly because most humans on the inside are just the same only difference is the mess you can see in the matter
Tomorrow’s World Relationships A perfect match? A loving family? Happy children? The pressures of today’s world create a grim reality where successful and lasting relationships are something of a fantasy. We cannot rely on the experience of elders since they lived in a very different world, so we have to find how to create meaningful and sustainable partnerships today. The key word in this search is connectedness, or rather, interconnectedness. Because the world is changing at an accelerating pace, it is pointless to compare today’s relationships to those of our parents, or even to relationships of people a decade or two older than us. Each year, the world becomes increasingly connected, and a crisis in one place quickly spreads to the rest of the world. On the personal level, too, things today are very different from what they were a decade ago. We have moved from fast food to fast relationships, and brief has become our permanent state of being. To cope with the growing uncertainty and find direction in the emerging chaos, we need to understand where we are going. We are headed toward total connectedness and interdependence. It is an irreversible process. The more connected we become, the more dependent on each other we become, as well. Soon, we will realize that anything that hurts others hurts me, too, and there is nothing I can do to break my ties with the world. In order to cope successfully with our interconnected future, we must change the nature of our ties from abusive and oppressive to supportive and embracing. Since we already broadcast our thoughts, words, and actions to the entire world, we might as well broadcast positive thoughts, words, and actions, and help improve the world for ourselves and others. In a world that is connected positively, the family is the basic unit of connection. A reality where humanity is a mass of isolated individuals is unsustainable because there will be no connections between people and society will disintegrate just as any organism disintegrates into the smallest elements when it dies. Therefore, the family will be the basic unit where people cultivate positive connections. Since people are becoming increasingly individualistic, the family will be the place where people learn to embrace diversity rather than fight against people who hold different views. People will learn that just as our body exists thanks to different cells and organs working together for the sake of the body, different people who work together for the sake of the family enable the success of the family. From the family unit, people will take their lessons to the community, from the community to the city, from the city to the state, to the country, and finally to the entire world. The key, therefore, to successful relationships in tomorrow’s world, lies not only in connections, but in connections between different people for a common goal, where the differences between them ensure their success and make their mutual dependence imperative, and even welcome.
The comment made by Mary Anne about asking the butcher to cut out her heart, ummm ok... didn't expect that less than 2 minutes in, lol... Other than that, I have to agree with Ruth; unless Alister & Mary Ann are able to create a real functioning business with revenue to be able to afford the house - especially since they insist on wanting to die there - then they need to become more entrepreneurial minded. There are sooo many ways that they could generate revenue & NO, turning it into a hotel does NOT need to be one of them! The just need a solid system in place, when it comes to events, tours, food offerings, plant sales, etc... otherwise, if everyone just wants to be stubborn, lazy or careless, then the kids WILL end up having to sell the place, in order to pay off any taxes & by then, both Alister & Mary Anne would have no choice...& if Charlie gets it, unless she stops thinking about it as "just" a family home, she's also going to be in a really stuck situation herself & then the place would be a "poison chalice". Which is unfortunate, because the place has so much potential! Even if they put a system or program in place that was doing HALF a year, what that bigger garden was doing, theyd have more then enough in profit & savings, to be able to afford its upkeep & taxes.
Quite impressive but HOW!!?😊 I know it's possible, my colleague at work always get 40K every week, I would appreciate if you show me how to go about it.
@@eleanorscarlett6092 After I got up to $300k trading with Mrs Mary Lynn Crawford i bought a new House and I'm now able to send my kids to a better school in the states thanks to her. When someone is straight forward with what he or she is doing people will always speak up for them.
Most people who buy art...are supposed to buy...it... and the garden party gets a commission! It's between you and the gallery how much and who pays for cakes and things, how much you make is determined by the fame and demand on the artist.
I'm only 55! After 2 bouts of covid, my energy levels are low! The lady with the garden has energy I wish I had!
Mary Anne is a very hard working woman, she's created a paradise in 15 years! Amazing
Hardworking and talented.
I thought Mary Ann was going to have a coronary while she was running around trying to do everything. The garden really is very intimate and charming. I can only wish them the best.

Just love the love they have for this place ❤
What a wonderful home and a great couple living their dream. I wish they could have kept it without worrying about profit and just enjoyed their vision and dream coming to life.
they have to profit to pay for the costs of keeping up the whole house and land.
RIP Alistair in 2016 🙏
This house was listed in 2020 for 5million pounds.
It’s always hard to see the forest thru the trees, when one is in the forest.
It’s obvious the couple is beyond tired.
I agree about the family meeting & have everything above board. Where there’s a Will, there’s a family. Hope it all worked out for them.
Omg how beautifull
I am very impressed
That beautiful house and garden is going to die with the owners...
yep. and because of them too
This show is always so great
They should consider hosting parties and weddings and such also. Just watching this exhausted me. I cannot believe how they have worked. I would consider anything for money to hire staff, if I were them!❤
I hope they are able to have the AMAZING MEDIEVAL WALL PAINTINGS RESTORED!!🌹🌹🌹

So Alistair died and the property was sold ...how poignantly sad?

Awww so sad to hear about Alistair would love an update on Mary-Anne.
In the US, tours in such a place would be at least $30+ a person.

A beautiful dream sometimes makes a beautiful world....
You can make money with selling not by just looking. 😅🤗

I hope the new owners realize that the former owner was the poison chalice and now the national treasure can be appreciated by all

These are hard to watch when you are bothered by the attitudes displayed by the owners.
Has Maryann been drinking?
VERY GOOD VEDIO
Marianne seems a rather difficult person, maybe it's the stress of such a huge responsibility, or maybe that's just her nature.
A hobby gardener living way beyond her means. No pity I,m afraid.
It’s now 2023:
The husband had died (2016)
and the wife had finally sold the property (2020)
Thanks for this sad update. I hope the wife has somehow been able to reconcile with all their children.
