Wow, I came here from Nicki Positano video recommendation. Like Italy, Great Britain is my other great love. I can never understand how someone can leave that part of the world. You just validated my thoughts. This video was excellently articulated and professionally presented. 🤩😍. Thank you for the wonderful tour of that magnificent estate house. I'm glad it's still taken care of. 👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌

[@theslowtravelsfamily]

Thank you so very much for subscribing to our channel - the support means to much! I absolutely love places rich in history so Italy is very high up on the list of places I can't get enough of. We've visited Rome countless times as well as Puglia and the Amalfi Coast but that still hasn't even scratched the surface of what I want to explore in Italy. We're lucky to have such a wealth of history here in the UK and in such density. I can't wait to share more of it here on this channel 😊 Have a wonderful week ahead.

[@barbarawillis5187]

Your channel was recommended by Nick Positano / Positano Diaries channel. Since I love the English old manors and the villages and their histories, I very much enjoyed this episode. I subscribed.

[@theslowtravelsfamily]

Nicki was so kind to share us 😊 She's a sweetheart! I'm so glad you enjoyed watching our video, I'm passionate about places like this. Thank you so much for subscribing to our channel and supporting us.

same for me. Really inspirational for when I visit the UK

[@theslowtravelsfamily]

@@markhellemans3440 Thank you ☺️ Always happy to provide some Uk travel inspiration

[@angelcat7753]

This is trully a beautiful work of art. So many artisans and carpenters. Thank you for this video.

[@rebeccaanderson5191]

Little Moreton Hall's upper gallery was featured in scenes of 1986 film "Lady Jane" featuring new stars Helena Bonham Carter as Lady Jane Grey and Cary Elwes as her husband Guilford Dudley. The gallery is a stunning piece of Tudor history and was used for scenes with Jane being whipped by her mother and a visit from Mary who would be queen. 👸 Unforgettable photography of the gallery.

[@carynkabat4208]

I just watched my weekly Nicki Positano and she recommended your you tube channel. Looking forward to watching. Good luck with your channel. I am now a subscriber.

[@buffplums]

What an incredible building. You can feel the history from it even on the video.

[@theslowtravelsfamily]

It’s absolutely incredible! I’ve never seen anything quite like it and I’ve visited a lot of old houses

[@VintagepaperdollcuttingC-wq5ql]

Your daughter is darling! What a special house. You can almost see ghosts from the past and hear the laughter.

[@sbdiaries]

Hello Stacey and Peter this is such a magical building that has survived the test of time. Thanks for showing us around we both a lovely day Beth and Simon ❤️ 👍 🙋

[@theslowtravelsfamily]

Hi Beth & Simon 😊 so glad you liked this episode around Little Moreton, it’s such a gem! I love when places like this survive the centuries! ❤️

[@lindsaybarche9858]

😱😱😱😱😱 This house is gobsmackingly gorgeous! I'm so thankful that it's custodians took care of it and preserved it through all of these years and to YOU for bringing me with you on your visit. I find your videos beautiful, calming and historically interesting. I also like the music you choose. Thank you!

[@penelopesparrow]

Easily my fave period for manor houses; you can keep your Chatsworths and Highcleres... I'll take these wonky Tudor fellows. I prefer them in their natural/biscuity colourways, but there's just something about the oak beams and wonky panels... love it. Thank you for this lovely little walk!

[@stephennicholson2833]

I'm glad I've found your channel. My mum is from Buxton and dad grew up in Great Longstone. I live in the USA now but visit quite often. Look forward to seeing more videos. Listen to BBC Radio Derby quite often so up to date on the goings on in Derbyshire.

[@MrTorleon]

I say, jolly well done indeed. I was raised in Cheshire, and my father, being an historian, dragged the family around various places of historic interest, including Little Moreton Hall. After I achieved my own degree in Early Medieval History at Oxford, I revisited the Hall on several occasions, and now, in my senior years, and living far away, it is an absolute delight to walk around this rare survivor once again, albeit virtually. Thank you ever so much for uploading this delightful video - stunning in every way :)

[@tracycombs1484]

Just an amazing Tudor manor. I'm like u I think I could just stand in awe of the architecture and history of such a beautiful manor. Love ❤️ ur garden. I love gardening too. It's a work in progress but it's very enjoyable to me. Love ❤️ ur channel!!

So calming!!! Thank you!!!!!

So pleased you enjoyed 🥰

[@exileinderby51]

I'd love to go to Little Moreton Hall, it looks wonderful. I have to add that I was lucky enough to work on a farm just below Mow Cop for a few months, so I went up there once or twice

[@theslowtravelsfamily]

If you get the chance I highly recommend it! I could quite easily have spent another few hours there. There is so much detail to take in and the NT volunteers are brilliant to talk to, they have so much knowledge and information about the property. That's fascinating to hear that you worked just by Mow Cop. I've only been up there a handful of times but I have to say I enjoy it 😊

[@lovelyskull3483]

Thank you, lovely.

[@gwendolyn7462]

Now this is what I call a working museum! what a find. Not sure Id go in there; the walls do no tlook too steady

[@elainemcdonald8903]

Quite a masterpiece

[@paulcooper3884]

Your garden is WONDERFUL ! ❤

[@havingalook2]

Delightful, so very well done. Your views and presentation of Moreton Hall was superb. Many thanks indeed. It was a delight.

[@SpanishEclectic]

Thank you so much for a charming detailed 'slow' tour of this Tudor masterpiece! I love all of the nooks and crannies, and while there is a lot of glass for the period, I note that the individual pieces are quite small. The 'Sphere of Destiny', not the 'spear'...so funny. The creative spelling of the day is always entertaining. Such an enjoyable autumn day, as I start August here in California. See you again soon!

[@babzblu]

Hi there. New subscriber here......Nicki sent me.

[@theslowtravelsfamily]

Thanks for being here! ❤

[@kansaidan2302]

You do a fantastic job of video and annotation. I'm in Washington State where, unfortunately, there is a different type of history. I really enjoy your vids. I'll try to get through all of them soon. I've been to England, but only saw London and Hampton Court (which were great) .... so need to return to see these 'jewels' you've introduced me to.

[@marty1234able]

You did this very well.

[@theslowtravelsfamily]

Thank you! ❤️ Happy Sunday!

It was a wonderful place to get to explore, such a wealth of history over the centuries. I'm paying a visit back there in today's episode to see the Christmas decorations :) It'll be going live in 6 hours if you're interested at all. Have a lovely day

[@davidcreager1945]

You popped up on my KZbin recommendations , I watched , and loved it ! I've now subscribed , so I won't miss anything !! Great job !

[@juliamacdonald3767]

Very nice video. Good tempo, good script, great subject and photography. Thanks.

[@maureentaphouse5206]

This is the best video of yours that I've watched. Loved the commentary inside Little Moreton Hall but I did wonder what some of the openings at the base of some walls were. Shelter for animals?

[@theslowtravelsfamily]

Thank you! I'm on a steep learning curve when it comes to making videos rather than photography so I'm really glad to hear the episodes are getting better 😊 I have to admit, I wondered the same thing about a couple of the openings on the walls. I'll have to return and ask about them to find out.

[@dianespears6057]

Always wanted to visit this house. This a wonderful overview and helpful. Thank you.

[@treehuggingmusician595]

Nikki from The Positano Diaries introduced me to your KZbin Channel. I'm happy to add you to the channels I follow. I am an American who has never been to Italy or England so I enjoy seeing and learning about the natural beauty and history in Europe. I certainly didn't know anything about the Moretons. I wonder if there is any connection to Morton Salt, realizing they are spelled differently.

[@theslowtravelsfamily]

Thank you so much for being here! Nicki was so incredibly kind to share our channel and give us that support in the early days of being on this platform 🥰 Thanks for taking the time to leave such a lovely message. I hope you one day manage to get across the pond and visit us here in England or Italy, there's so much to explore. Until then, we're more than happy to provide a little virtual escapism :) To be honest I hadn't heard or Morton Salt before so I'm unsure if there is any relation between the two, shall have to look into that!
