this video made me so happy! what a brilliant day to spend with loving parents touring something that is dear to your dad's heart, all the while chatting about the great history of this magnificent estate. bravo!

[@TheJoelWood]

Thanks so much for watching!! Glad you enjoyed it!!

[@rowantinn5555]

Joel, it’s a small world my grandparents lived in one of the flats at The Vyne during the 80’s/90’s and your film drought back some great memories 👌👍. Have been meaning to take the husband to visit the Vyne for years, thanks for the reminder 😃🏳️‍🌈

[@donniebrooks21]

I’d geek out walking around an estate like this with your Dad. Your Mum and Dad are two lovely people. You’re very blessed. Goimg to Highclere Castle would be great with your parents.

[@CathyMiller0711]

I loved this tour and would definitely enjoy seeing more. I am currently obsessed with KZbin channels of Brits restoring French chateaux and would love to see more of these English manor houses. This looks like an amazing place. The molded ceilings for one thing! Wow. Now Joel, if you didn't know where your Dad had been spending his time, you do need to pay more attention. Sit down with your parents NOW and ask questions about their lives beginning with childhood. Too many of us aren't' terribly interested until there are no older relatives to ask. Ask now and listen! :) (This is from an old Granny who enjoys following your journey.)

[@hulahickey6959]

Your very fortunate to have such wonderful parents. They do indulge you with letting you film them while they are out and about. Well done Joel I did find this very interesting.

[@s.b.7924]

Your father and I would get along great! I love restoring old buildings,the stories they tell me. Please definitely do more of these videos.

[@jimandy1145]

Hey, Joel. I continue to adore your Mom and Dad. What lovely people. The Vyne Tudor Mansion and property are beautiful. Thanks for taking me along. Love you and God bless, always.

[@Blueeyedconcubine]

It would be awesome you you did a series with your dad going to the historic places he has worked on and him explaining the thing they worked on. I love hearing your dad talk about that

[@michaelmullard4292]

I’m in heaven, it has a private chapel with choir stalls! So beautiful!

[@KatieScoot11]

Loved the visit, Joel! Thanks for showing us around with your Mum and Dad! Just lovely!

[@kathyeaton9769]

I love these videos with your parents, glad to hear you want to do more like this. Honestly anyplace you guys walk through would be great to hear your dads comments, he could use his own mic though 😊

[@huntlewis8938]

It warms my heart that your father is involved in the preservation of historic buildings. MORE videos like this PLEASE! but, mic your dad. Love ya tons!

[@kristingomez6801]

Your parents are so precious! Your mom is always so happy, & your dad’s gentle voice entrances me. I would love to listen to him explain all that stuff he knows! You are very blessed. ❤️

[@rachellemckenzie9636]

There’s something so enchanting about “old” England to me! I can’t wait to visit again. Lovely vlog Joel. You’re parents are so lovely.

[@BobsCreativeDays]

I truly think that it would be fascinating to walk around an old manor house with your dad and listen to him explain the different styles and eras of these old homes.

[@christineallocca7307]

I love when you make these touring vlogs. The old buildings are very fascinating. Love seeing your parents too. They are lovely. ❤

[@annaburch3200]

That was really neat! Thank you, Joel! I hope your dad feels pride in the work he's doing, helping to restore these historic buildings to their former glory. It is really special that the public can tour and learn from the projects he's worked on.

[@djehrenreich]

Wow! Beautiful building. It’s kind of Downton Abbey-ish. And you are so proud of your dad as you should be.

[@mommamasher277]

Loved getting to see the beautiful property. I love seeing your parents in your videos. You all have great smiles. When you smile I can't help but smile too

[@andrewnelson3403]

Your Mom and Dad are delightful! Thank them for sharing their knowledge with your viewers, it made me feel like I was exploring with my folks who loved doing this kind of adventure. Your mom's earrings are superb.

[@jasthe3rd]

Loved the video and the content. I enjoyed seeing the old house, and hearing your Dad's commentary. My only criticism is that I had to keep adjusting the sound up so I could hear you talking, and then down because of the music playing in between. If you can keep the music at a more constant level equal to the conversation bits, that would be much better. Cheers.

[@toddlisasmith9512]

I agree, your dad is very interesting and both your parents seem lovely.

[@TheJoelWood]

Aw thanks so much!

[@victoriawalters7107]

Your parents are so sweet. I could listen to your dad talk Al day. He has a very soothing voice. I would love more videos with our parents.

[@MsTrain69]

I just adore your parents, Joel. You are so blessed 😊♥️

[@teknekon]

Lovely Joel! Thank you so much for sharing this! Prilliant! L&C 👍😘❤️🇬🇧

[@gentlespiritjw4904]

I loved this video, Joel. And I'm just like your sweet Mum, in that I love old buildings for their history too. ❤ Jean

[@joemalick4151]

So beautiful, you’re lucky to have such amazing places to tour, I love all the historic buildings and landscapes. Thanks for sharing!

[@TheJoelWood]

Thanks so much for watching Joe!

[@darkprincess102305]

Mapperton in southwest England has been undergoing renovations and its absolutely stunning. I follow the KZbin channel Mapperton Live and they document the process. Would be cool to see you collab!

[@jcbaily5559]

I love to go through historical buildings, I guess that is one reason why I love to come over to London or Edinburgh and it is extra nice to have your Mom and Dad along with you! I had, at one time, considered living in the UK but it never worked out much to my sorrow. I love the smaller cars that you all drive and I always thought it would be a challenge to drive on the left side rather than the right side as here in the US. A co-worker and her husband went to New Zealand and rented a car there and they drive on the left side and he never could get use to it and ended up having an accident(not serious) and I have always thought of that when I think of returning to the UK and renting a car!!!! Thanks so much!

[@michaelmullard4292]

So cool, Joel!! I was hoping one day you would take us on one of your dad’s projects! I would love to see more of these great projects!! Would love to see any manor house especially if it has a significant garden attached. Maybe in Wiltshire, Dorset, And especially Cornwall! That county fascinates me.

[@meesa8468]

I'd love for you to bring your dad and film a proper tour and story behind Tewksbury Abby. It's one of most favorite places I've ever visited while traveling. It's so beautiful. I spent days and days there poking around, sipping a cold drink on the grass outside just taking in the beauty, strolling the nearby lane ways along the water. It's one of my favorite memories. I think viewers would love seeing it inside and learning about it. Love these videos when you go exploring old places. ❤

[@stephenroberts8142]

Thanks so much Joel. Fascinating listening to your Dad & sharing in your visit. Hope your pristine footwear have recovered!

[@micahwoodard]

Beautiful! Lovely place with lovely people! Thanks for bringing us along.

[@michaelmccabe3734]

Great idea, Joel! Would like to see whatever your father’s working on. Lovely to walk along with you and your parents. Thank you.

[@califwillie4247bd]

I love England, all of Europe for that matter. I love the history and grand architecture. That is a lot of work to replace that roof. Your father is an artist. All handmade tiles. Amazing. i was taught the Art of upholstering walls by a gentleman that came to America from England, to fulfill contracts he signed to do homes in Beverly Hills in California. A lot of celebrity homes. He took me on as his apprentice. When he departed the states for home, I started my own business in West Los Angeles and continued the trade for many interior decorators in Los Angeles. The Vyne looks to have upholstered walls. First used in castles to help keep the rooms a bit warmer. First used on blocks of wood covered in padding with leather covering that and then assembled on the walls. It was first used by the Moors in the 11th century.

[@antoniaperez7850]

💗 💕 ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ the history tours with your parents.

[@robertwilhelm7002]

Joel, love these tours with your family. I think it would be fascinating to have your Dad along on a tour of the house and grounds. The only thing missing was the puppies, but obviously they would not be allowed in the buildings. Would love to see more buildings/architecture of historic nature please.

[@mayloo2137]

It's a lovely pile. I can't imagine how many servants were needed to keep the mansion in order centuries ago. The restoration looks really good. 👌 👍 The signs for the various rooms reminds me of the old British series Upstairs, Downstairs. The only thing missing are the bells.

[@mike84199]

This was wonderful. I live in Colonial Williamsburg and love history. Would really like to see more of these historical tours.

[@mplwy]

This was lovely! I love this kind of stuff. It was also so sweet, at the end, to see your parents holding hands, as well as, the other couple ahead of you. 😊❤

[@lisaburnette6850]

That was awesome, Joel! I’d love to go along with you and your parents to beautiful places like this. 😊

[@Gabialoha1]

Oh I love this video! I love the history of it all… And the fact that we have personal tour guides in you and your parents makes me happy. This is exactly why I want to visit the UK and Europe. I love history and want to visit all these wonderful places that have stood throughout time. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@kathryn1304]

Please go visit Julie at Mapperton! Thanks Joel, x

[@TheJoelWood]

Thanks for watching Kathryn!

[@juanramos.jr.7948]

I love tours. It was really fascinating to see this old Tudor mansion. Beautiful. Thank you for taking us along.

[@kimharding2246]

That was lovely!! Yes, do more of this. The one shot of the white ceiling with carved flowers reminded me of what you find in historic old homes in St. Petersburg, Russia.

[@pickles1169]

Thank you, Joel. Just a lovely video leaving one feeling so peaceful. Your father with his gentle voice and vast knowledge along with your editing made this outstanding.

[@joec2986]

Please!! Don't stop making this type of video ☺️

[@theresaanzur9980]

Your parents look like wonderful people you are truly blessed with great parents. Have a good night's rest

[@bethmeredith]

It's always a joy to see your parents in your videos. It's so cool that you have your Dad as your guide with a wealth of first hand information. The Vyne was lovely. Thanks for sharing it with us xx

[@valwadsworth3044]

Very interesting. I work at a civil engineering firm in the US and I found this great! Nice the UK tries to preserve old buildings.

[@biliegh_itiswhatitis]

any of the old houses like this would be awesome

[@lynnhurst7365]

I love places like this thanks so much for sharing 💕

[@TheJoelWood]

You're welcome, thanks so much for watching!

[@JB444-x8g]

And we in America think something is old if it’s 100 years. It’s amazing how some people used to live. The ceiling were amazing from all the details!

[@lisaanderson2900]

Joel, there was an independent minister Reverend Matthew Mead. Among other things, he served at Stepney Meeting house and has a grave there. He lived 1629-1699 and had the largest congregation in London at one point. He was accused of the Rye House Plot in 1683 (a plan to assassinate King Charles II) but was let go. Anyway, he's an ancestor of mine. Either my 8x great grandfather or maybe uncle. If you're ever in the area, please say hello for me! =0)

[@christianoliver3572]

This was just amazing for me to see especially with the inside information from Joel's dad.

[@TheJoelWood]

Thanks for watching Christian!

[@kristenhoover1814]

I Love these videos! As an architect I’m just fascinated with these old buildings!! As I’m watching, I’m talking to you, “wait, turn to the left, what’s that, wait go back… 😂. Love listening to your Dad also but it’s hard to hear him. I truly envy his work! Thank you for sharing Joel!

[@Elizabeth-rh1hl]

So interesting. Love learning the history and the people who lived there. Cool that your Dad does restoration work of historical sites. Enjoyed the video.

[@judidozier]

Such a beautiful place! Thank you for this walk back through time! 🌸💖🌸

[@danielleporter1829]

Joel your parents are just delightful. Your mom's jacket was pretty. The Vyne is a beautiful stately home. The National Trust sounds like it similar to the National Register of Historic Places we have here in the US. One location on the Register a person can visit is somewhere I'm sure you're aware of, it's where the President lives in Washington DC. . I will love to visit the UK and see some of the stately houses like Althrop, the ancestral home of Diana , Highclare Castle , the setting of "Downton Abbey" Although I didn't watch the show while it was on the air.

[@arthurestrada2682]

Greetings from America, your second home. This is very Poldark.

I loved this video. So fun to see historic places in England I would never get to see otherwise.

[@ruthiepooh86]

Joel, your voice is perfect for this type of video. Have you thought of doing this sort of video all the time? They are very popular on KZbin.

[@VMeral]

Oh Joel, this video is such a treat. How I long to visit houses like this one. You'll love the Jane Austen book! I have Read one and Loved it so much.

[@lakephillip]

Really enjoyed this one. Just love your family. You are all so great together. Touring a Tudor Mansion was great, watching from Northern California.

[@claytonshook4502]

I love this i love the history of the uk I study it daily and I would love to walk with your dad and you on this and help restore it ❤️❤️❤️

[@lilliancabezas8879]

Just loved this video Joel. It's the type of content that got me to subscribe. As I sit here in Brooklyn working, I felt transported to another place and time. Can't wait to someday visit the UK and get my feet all muddy while strolling about these magnificent historic homes. Let me just say that your beautiful Mom and handsome Dad are clearly so proud of you as you must be so very proud them. They seem like such a wonderful couple. God bless.

[@barrycooper3045]

I worked as a guide on the reroofing of Dyrham Park and as a result of the success of this venture the National Trust extended the plan to the Vyne. I think that it is excellent that the National Trust is allowing greater access to repair work. We had local residents visiting Dyrham every few weeks to see the repair work and I am sure people living near the Vyne also closely followed the work.

[@TheJoelWood]

That's so cool! It's a great way for people to feel more involved!

[@barrycooper3045]

@@TheJoelWood I met a group from the Vyne when they visited Dyrham, was your Father in that group?

Welcome to the Janeite community! Mansfield Park can be a good introduction to Jane's books. My favorite, of course, is Pride and Prejudice. Love old houses. Here old is 300 years. You and Lia need to come to Newport RI when you come to Boston. The "summer cottages " of the uber rich of the 1880s to 1920s. Like Biltmore House some family still have rooms but most are owned by conservation groups

[@nodakjak]

Definitely going to have to put this on the list for places to explore. We usually try to do a couple of trips outside London during our holiday, and this looks well worth it. Thanks!
