I bet there are not many people who can say that they once lived in a castle. Well, I did. As a teenager, I used to live in this very castle with my parents when the castle was in its full glory. To this day when I see footage like this, it brings back so many memories of when Gwrych Castle in Abergele was open to the public at the time I was living there. When I see pictures of the beautiful great staircase I have many memories of running up and down those stairs. It saddens me to see the castle in such a rundown state. I hope one day it can be restored to its full glory. On the humorous side because I lived in a castle, does that mean you all have to call me "Lord Roscoe" now? or even "King Roscoe" 🙂 🙂
@@2000stephenellis I thank it was around 1976 my father was running it for the owners there was a Miniature Railway to the side and we also had jousting shows
Cheers thank you ..(just happened to be on-line when you commented!) i strongly suggest you visit the castle in person if you ever get the chance .. it`s enchanting and haunting !! thanks again Steve ..stay safe!!
So, this is the new filming location for I'm A Celebrity 2020.. I can see the castle and surrounding areas have great potential, they can do trials not just in the castle but outside it too :)
Yes defs haunted i went once years ago and got to the famous marble stairs there was nothing on the stairs as i went down them but on my return there was a pool of blood and no apparent reasonable explanation of where it came from sent shivers down my spine i can tell u
@@2000stephenellis I wouldn't bother mate. I was recently there and had it out with 4 security guards who said I couldn't fly over the area because it was private land. They weren't interested in hearing about the actual rules of flying, so after a while of discussing it I chose to leave as I couldn't be bothered arguing.
@@davyaerialvideography9595 Cheers for the heads up on that .... I was supposed to be holidaying very close to the castle this week...but it was cancelled due to covid ... So maybe next year ? ... Steve 👍
Georgina Graziano Hi Georgina...thanks for the comment...with regards to the ghost I've never really noticed to be honest ... I'll recheck the footage .... Although it would not be the first time something spooky has be caught on camera at this location .... Just standing beside the castle even in the daylight is a bit unnerving ... I recommend if you ever get chance to visit it ...to do so ...you won't be sorry you did ...
Georgina Graziano I'm due to go back this summer if I get chance I'll try and do another drone vid ..maybe from a different perspective ?....I've read recently that they're planning on renovating parts of it ... So could be my last chance to film there ...
Georgina Graziano yes you probably could ... I'll try if the opportunity presents itself... You see the land the castle sits on is protected ... No entry signs etc ...
Hi thanks for your reply...i think its a rich persons idea of a castle (all info in video description) i do know it was used in the 70`s as a kind of theme park ..hence the picture at the beginning ...it`s still a wonderful place to go visit if you ever get the chance ... and i believe some conservation group are in the process of restoring it as best they can ...that`s the last i heard anyway ..cheers steve
@@simonwilson1237 Yes it is (crying to be explored)... Be warned though if you ever make it the conservation group are VERY VERY..protective of the place nowadays ........
Hi there .. thanks for watching ... I was at the castle again 2 weeks ago (and I'm assuming that you are not being sarcastic here)...not much has changed since I shot this ... Thanks for watching again ... Steve (u.k.) X
@@GwrychCastleOfficial Hi there I'm perfectly willing to come along and help out with any restoration work ..that's how passionate I am about this place ..I only live an hour and a half away .. Get in touch please .. Kindest regards Steve
Alex Jones hi I remember you all running because you thought I was the police !!! ... Nice meeting you all ... Hope you all explored well .. see you you Aug 2018 for more .... Take care dude ... Steve

Yes, I heard the same. Is it possible to try to go inside the castle with the drone? (of course, as long as nobody lives there...)
Georgina Graziano yes you probably could ... I'll try if the opportunity presents itself... You see the land the castle sits on is protected ... No entry signs etc ...
Great footage very run down can any one tell me it is an actual castle or a very rich persons version of a castle

I remember when it was open to the public in the early 60s, a fabulous place, dead spooky an all
@@lyndawilson3297 I hope one day its open to the public
So I guess they haven't started the remodel yet. Sad.
