The Real Downton Abbey | Inside Newby Hall | English Country House Tour

[@ruthgoebel723]

Newby Hall reminds me a bit of Stoneleigh Abbey.

LOVE Newby Hall. Definitely a must visit. ❤

It’s just stunning is t it!?

[@charlieb2903]

I visited Newby Hall last year, so it is good to see it again. When I was there the wonderful long borders were at their best, and the tour of the house was fascinating.

​@@XploreheritageI can imagine a lot of Englishmen traveling by boat to China and parts of Asia and Africa. I think the first European country to invade Africa was Portugal

Beautiful estate. Thank you

It really is! My pleasure 🙏

[@ryanjones5133]

Please do a video on Berington hall in Hertfordshire as it is a perfect example of English neo classical architecture inside and out with its staircase being caped by a glass dome

[@Xploreheritage]

I will certainly look into it 👍

[@ryanjones5133]

Thanks

[@keithss67]

Really love your clips 👍

[@andrewcooney2387]

Your channel is very good and important for eudicational reasons and your attention to detail in the rooms is unmatched by any other. Keep up the good work in helping people to take the time to go to these wonderful historic houses. Greetings from Ireland

[@Xploreheritage]

Thanks so much for your kind words 🙏

[@martinandrewnewby1525]

Good to see it's still standing and being maintained properly, I hope to visit in the near future.

[@angesanfilippo43]

Beautiful house and video!

[@Xploreheritage]

Thank you 🙏

[@TimothyZakaria]

​@@Xploreheritageu can imagine how the homes were heavily impacted by the wars. A lot of conflicts back then amongst the UK and other countries.

[@antsadventures149]

Great video did you have tk het special permission to film as i jave read they only do guided tours and no photography is allowed?

[@Xploreheritage]

Thanks so much. You can’t ordinarily film/take photos within the house, but I did have permission 👍

[@nativetexan53]

I subscribed. Love your content. It is new to me

[@ingridpear1882]

It's beautiful. Was this where the American filming of pride and predjudice was filmed?

If this was the inspiration for Downton Abbey wwhy was it filmed at Highclere?

[@ingridpear1882]

They went looking for a place to film after the book/script was written, didn't they?

[@janinestearns7288]

Sorry, but Highclere Castle is the “real” Downton Abbey as that’s where Downton Abbey was actually filmed. However, Newby Hall would certainly also have been a wonderful setting for the show!

[@smoath]

Highclere wasn't the inspiration for the story. So you're right to be sorry, you're wrong.

[@janinestearns7288]

@@smoath I didn’t say it was the inspiration for the show. I clearly said the show was filmed at Highclere. So I am not wrong at all.

[@bradleyadams4496]

I do want to respect the parkland of these homes, but the agricultural portion of the property needs reinvisioning, and a portion of the parkland may have to be surrendered to realize the greatest potential for the property. For our epoch, these houses need to realize their greatest potential. The parkland is a business opportunity as are the gardens, it depends on how successful Adam Smith's design for society, but I'm sure that there will be plenty commissions to paint gardens and parkland, and the house gets 10%. I want to recreate Newby Hall for myself. It would make a nice Plantation home.

[@keithss67]

Lady Mary was not heiress to the estate. That was literally the entire plot of the 1st season of the show. The estate was entailed, meaning that it had to pass to the eldest male relative who would also inherit the title. That’s why Matthew was set to inherit both the earldom and the estate from lord Grantham after the death of Granthams cousin and his son on the titanic. That’s why Mary and Matthews son will be the next Earl Grantham. How Mary got her hands on part of the estate is too long and convoluted to go over here 😳😳😳😳😳

[@frasermckevitt2417]

The show is way to complicated

[@terrybennett742]

The real Downton Abbey is Highclere Castle.

[@ryanjones5133]

Of course Highclere castle is the real Downton abby as that's were it is filmed

[@thomasirving2820]

It is a great shame that such wonderful architectural examples of Britons past rich and influential families can no longer be maintained because those same families are no longer so rich as to be able to maintain them. If the treasury, who is the beneficiary of the disappearing riches, is unwilling to step into the breach who else. It’s goodbye to Britains rich/poor heritage. More cash available for wasteful go government spending. 0:33

[@Sebassss777]

Highclere castle is the real Downton abbey

[@RS-xx9ve]

Hmmm a nunnery is inhabited by nuns, a hermitage is inhabited by hermits. So a country house is inhabited by...?🤔🤔

[@dcole9589]

NOT a fan of Robert Adam. Old lady Wedgewood. Give me an English Baroque interior any day of the week. GREAT preserved example though.

[@l.carlossimental6096]

Is this estate connected to slavery or colonialism?

[@hotoneinspai]

This is NOT The Real Downton Abbey... Come on ...Cute as this house is... Its NOT in the same League as Highclere Castle...I've visited Newby a couple of times...Its really nice and worth seeing BUT !!!!!!!!!!

[@joejanczak3014]

This video gives inspiration to current builders and designers. Hopefully the styles can have a Renaissance in modern day architecture! 🏛️

[@Xploreheritage]

That would be marvellous 🙌
