STAYCATION IN CORNWALL | Spending the Night in Jail, Visiting Lanhydrock & Garage Update

[@kattyleen13]

Madeleine deserves to be paid by Cornwall for her tourism advertising efforts

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Hahaha 🤣

[@janebradfield2373]

I heartily agree! I love this type of vlog

[@isabelleb.3653]

I pretty much went to Cornwall two years ago because of Maddy haha It was lovely!

[@catrionagarde4410]

Once she goes to Godolphin House, cos she's the best.

[@KingsMom831]

Love your channel! I live in the U.S. but my great grandfather was from Cornwall and I’ve always wanted to visit. Really appreciate not just this video but all of your videos! Especially your recipes! And your beautiful old farmhouse🙏💛

[@PaulaJoW]

I agree - I find the kitchens of manor houses and castles much more interesting than the living spaces upstairs. (That flower bouquet is amazing!)

[@emiliecortinovis9990]

Thanks Madeleine and Alex for taking us along with you on this very cool staycation! It was so relaxing to see the woods and gardens, and little paths... it felt great really. So thank you. I can't wait to see the garage!

[@angiecowell5619]

Oh my goodness, I’m a huge fan of kitchens from yesteryear, thank you for filming this one. When I was there I literally filmed everything in it. The house and grounds are incredibly beautiful. Love your vlog too and love your content.

[@olliepurds5774]

You’ll always be my favourite vlogger, I’m based in st Austell and I’ve followed since the Brighton days. Keep up the amazing work

[@CORRECT05]

"She put a curse on the town of Bodmin, which makes sense" LMAO 😭

[@gill2292]

Love when you incorporate days out vlogs. So much to see and do in the U.K..wow..that jail hotel snd whole experience is truly amazing.. l live in the US now and miss home immensely..so appreciate you guys sharing all these lovely places and your lovely English cottage life.

[@bouncyelf1]

We have stayed in Bodmin for our hols for the last few years as we can go up and down and see both North and South coast Cornwall within easy driving distance!

[@Adi-tt5ox]

I'm catching up on your videos after getting back from my first visit to England and now I want to go back and get to Cornwall!! I really enjoyed seeing Lanhydrock in this one :) The bit at the end all about the garage conversion is so exciting, and just seeing how close you are to finishing and having such a lovely space to enjoy makes me so happy! I can't wait to see the finished thing :D

[@KatByteK]

Thank you for sharing your staycation. You make an American want to move to Cornwall. What a relaxing, beautiful place to be.

[@jennyjohnson9012]

Thanks for all the tips Madeleine. We have rented a cottage between Bodmin and Padstow next month, and although I used to come to Cornwall as a child it was a long time ago! Its nice to remember all these places aren't too far away. Thankyou for a great vlog!

[@janebradfield2373]

I absolutely love the clogs where you show us scenery. I live in the hot desert of Southern California, in the US. I’m just loving seeing the countryside. I love your content and look forward to your posts!

[@leoniegr6699]

This was such a trip down memory lane, thank you Madeleine! I'm from Germany but when I was 15/16, I stayed in Bodmin for a year as an exchange student. I haven't been back in 4/5 years, so seeing all of these places again was amazing. So funny you grew up in Bodmin, I never would have guessed!! Usually when I tell people about it no one seems to know where it is 😅

[@rachelspoon4741]

Stunning vlog! The jail hotel so facinating and cool. Pride and Prejudice feel as you walked around the gardens. Hope you and Alex are doing ok :) cannot wait to see your garage transformation, it is so much brighter. You can do so much in that room, lovely space for entertainment area, gym or even a office space. Just the idea of lying down on the sofa with popcorn in hand and the projector on is bliss ^^

[@olivebenson3235]

Thank you for sharing. Your hotel stay looked fab. Really looking forward to the septic tank installation 😃 😅 .

[@susannemuris2088]

I've been to Lanhydrock some years ago, and I also loved the kitchen. They had lemons and herbs there, and the smell was amazing,

[@Calmermassagetherapies]

Every year we visit liskeard on holiday in December as myself and my parents got married there (from South Wales) As a child we always visited Bodmin jail when it was a museum and it was scary but brilliant! Love what they have done to it now and would love to visit but the cost is super expensive!

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Thankfully Madeleine & Alex wasn't in Jail for being naughty😆 A fantastic staycation vlog and great to appreciate what we already have in the UK because not everyone can afford to have a holiday outside of the UK due to the increasing living costs crisis. Love 🥰 the vlog and love 💕❤Madeleine & Alex.

[@kathykluger5395]

The Jail was so interesting and the room was beautiful! I absolutely love your dress!

[@sidrashirazi2458]

Madeleine you looked very gorgeous in that dress x thanks for sharing your staycation !!

[@cathylynnpietranton]

Hey Maddie and Alex this was so interesting and fun. Thanks for sharing your your little getaway with us. Can't wait to see the garage tour.❤

[@michaelmercurio2312]

Loved this vlog. We're going to be visiting the Mapperton estate and gardens in Dorset in early July and I can't wait. I wish we could get down to Cornwall - it looks so beautiful.

[@sue15cat]

Brilliant video ❤️ The garage looks amazing, it would be a great room for yoga 🧘‍♀️ I'm tempted to book a night in Bodmin Jail, but not telling my husband where we're staying until we get there. He loves surprise holiday destinations. We're on a narrow boat next month, an 80's weekend in September, so this would be totally different ... and VERY surprising. 😃🤣

[@michellehooper661]

Very interesting vlog! I have been to Devon , Somerset and Dorset but never Cornwall. Was interesting seeing a different type of Cornwall break. You are looking so beautiful and relaxed.

[@MadeleineOlivia]

You’ve got to visit!

[@alisonhardisty5869]

Port Isaac is such a pretty little place to visit. Bodmin Jail sounds really interesting. Btw you looked stunning in the Faithless dress.

[@nancyesposito1020]

I just ordered a pair of sunglasses from Pala with your code. Ordered style Karibu - Rye. The quality looks really good. And I finally ordered the right style for my face shape! Thank you for partnering with sustainable companies and sharing!

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Aww that’s amazing! Hope you love them x

[@GemmaP22]

Love this vlog 🥰 Brings back so many memories! Me and my other half stayed in Bodmin about 6 years ago in a converted cattle shed and we visited lanhydrock house, the eden project, falmouth, fowey, Charlestown, Newquay! It was a great week away 🥰 We did of course go into Bodmin and yes it was a little unexpected but they had good cornish pasties 😁 When we went to Lanhydrock a man was playing the piano and did the pirate of the Caribbean theme! It was amazing 🙌🙌

[@suerogerts4330]

I have a vague memory of a garden seat made with a Gabon seeded with chamomile so that when you sat on it you had that relaxing aroma maybe in the 70s or 80s going back a bit but I always remembered it xxxx

[@yeshhhplease]

Your videos are SO soothing

[@francesandrews5506]

Such a great vlog 🥰☀️

[@emilielouisewalker7391]

Lanhydrock looks like such a dream!!!

[@gingersal8052]

You look stunning Maddie, beautiful dress! Would not stay in the hotel personally, I would feel uneasy knowing what it formerly was. But it must have been an interesting trip.

[@hannahc4641]

Really enjoyed this vlog, and thanks for the Cornwall recommendations! I’m visiting St Ives for a day trip (going on the train) in a couple of weeks time and I’d love to know any recommendations you have! I’m going to Tate and the Barbra Hepworth sculpture garden of course, not sure yet about food though - somewhere for lunch and places for ice cream/cake.

[@jojokelly5524]

This is so awesome. Amazing video

[@NonStopParis]

It’s true! The letter J wasn’t invented/used in English until like the 17th Century or something

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Wowza

[@djaneab]

@@MadeleineOlivia yep Alex is right! 😅

[@tinacrane1370]

Such a beautiful vlog and beautiful couple 💕

[@alisondoughty2194]

Super fun video.Thx for sharing your time out.

[@hannahbanana7119]

Loved this vlog so much! What was the music you had playing during the Lanhydrock chapter: it was sublime!

[@cherylhughes9487]

The music 😘 The views 👍🏻 Perfection ❤️

[@leahcohen8763]

omg so excited to watch this. 😊 just what i needed today

[@ngaiosbrain]

Same!!!

[@JAMoore-zz3ki]

I really enjoyed this!

[@TuesdayHabit]

I thought you were going to say Cornish…pixie! 😂 too much Harry Potter

[@beguiled16]

I LOVE that gingham dress on you 😍

[@janecroft7572]

Last place I took my children to visit before they were too old to go out with mum, this was years before they renovated it, and gaol is the old spelling of jail

[@KWilliams22]

Can't wait for the spectic tank installation video 🤣🤣🤣

[@jennifertoliver8433]

Cornish Native. The garage looks so light and bright! The Alliums self seed easily and have spread right down the street. If you have the desire build the sofa and put light mattresses for singles and an angled cushion behind, its so comfy , but you will had've to shelter them.

[@carriestandridge4043]

I thought "...Cornish native..." is what she meant, too.

[@Britbabe53]

My Nanny lived in Liskeard for many many years.

[@carolynoquinn4573]

What a beautiful Country, and all that History!

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

Washing dishes while I watch.🥰👏🏻✨

[@hannahandrainn]

I love going to cardinham woods with Liv 💖

[@sherryhudson9075]

I could not have stayed in that jail. The tiny windows with no escape, would be so claustrophobic.

[@VerhoevenSimon]

I hope you enjoyed the trip

[@georgehorwell6502]

How much did (or I should say would have) it cost you to stay in the Bodmin Gaol? 😊

[@glynnL]

I had been reading a book about the workhouses and had to stop for a bit. So terrible, and really not that long ago that these treatments and views of humanity were the status quo.

[@bridiewright1519]

Madeleine so jealous i really wanna go bodmin jail, always go jamaica inn, we're in Devon and that place is seriously haunted, did u feel anything weird?

[@kmccurley1948]

That’s so funny I’m rewatching poldark and he’s going to Bodmin jail!!

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Omg this is my cue to rewatch poldark!!!

[@kmccurley1948]

@@MadeleineOlivia you’ve never seen it??? Poldark is so yummy!!!

[@djaneab]

@@kmccurley1948 haha, she said Rewatch, so I think she has! Think I will too!

The only regret I have about visiting Lanhydrock was that I didn’t have enough time to really explore

[@mima.second]

check out Cor gallery in falmouth, amazing cornish art

[@catrionagarde4410]

Cant believe you didnt check out the stables at Lanhydrock.

[@MadeleineOlivia]

We did!

[@catrionagarde4410]

@@MadeleineOlivia oh why didn't you show? I guess I have to go again now. 😀

[@catrionagarde4410]

Maybe I'm a bit of a stable pervert. But thought that was the highlight. Never mind will go again.

[@zenabraithwaite1934]

Bodmin jail looks fascinating but I wouldn't sleep there - I am too spiritually sensitive. X

[@MadeleineOlivia]

It was quite spooky but so fun!

[@madgemaud]

That is how jail used to be spelt 😀😀

[@isomedo]

Can you please explain what "dodgy" means to you? Where I'm from it would imply unsafe so I wouldn't visit dodgy places... thanks

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Haha it isn’t unsafe. Everywhere in Cornwall is very safe. It’s just not known for being particularly nice compared to other spots in Cornwall x

[@isomedo]

@@MadeleineOlivia got it! Thanks a ton 😊

FFS! It’s a holiday NOT a frigging staycation! You’re British not American so even using the proper word vacation would be inappropriate.
