[@anitabowen9730]

Thank you so much for the walk through. I also appreciate the aerial view to put it all in perspective. Will look forward to more updates showing the progress, it’s quite an undertaking requiring skilled crafts workers!

[@KnockderryCastle]

We have so much more to show you! Thanks for joining us on this adventure!

[@calebmarek]

What an honor to be involved in such a project.

It’s going to be wonderful to watch your progress

[@KnockderryCastle]

Thank you for joining us!

[@dbartz5510]

Wow, that view from the bedroom! I also love the music room! It will be gorgeous!

[@KnockderryCastle]

It’s already incredible, but once it’s all restored it will be even more remarkable!

[@sunnymeb]

Lovely aerial views that showcases the grand scale! Colin is a dab hand at describing and showing the hard work. Love that his name will go down in history as the lead person for the renovation and rescue.

[@cindywalker852]

So nice of you to give a tour of the castle

[@VaultMCMLXXXIII]

Thank you so much for being here!

[@CMRCC07]

Beautiful. Cannot wait when it’s all complete.

[@LindaW7950]

Excellent tour guide, Colin.

[@staceybohlke1881]

Thank you so much for the tour! It is an amazing place. The wood paneling is beautiful, and It will be wonderful to see it restored and all the windows clear. Managing this project must be crazy difficult. Finding skilled builders and preservationists, getting, moving, and storing materials, and then coordinating all the different contracters. Pretty mind blowing. The owners and all involved are a brave lot. Wishing you all good luck and safety for the duration.

[@Scotlandlizard]

Wow. So many lovely features and such a sympathetic and fantastic restoration. It's like a maze, I wonder if anyone ever gets lost in the house 😀

[@polgara28]

What an undertaking! There are so many beautiful structures that are abandoned, which I never really understood, but now I'm getting an idea of why they aren't refurbished much anymore. It's going to be amazing when the work is finished! Thanks for bringing us along for the journey.

[@jeffreysmith5018]

What an extraordinary project!

[@janerainsford8996]

That was so interesting!!

[@Nancy-g6k]

It's going to look beautiful!!!!

[@debs1664]

Thank you for the tour!!! Fascinating. Can’t wait to see more!

[@tamrahawkes3170]

Wow so awesome!

[@darla723]

Just amazing to watch! You have already done so much but there's still so much to do. I absolutely love the view from the 4th bedroom, and I love the Music room so much. The detail in the wooden trim in much of the castle is spectacular. Thank you for the tour, it is wonderful to see!

[@charisselewis6687]

Thank you so very much for the tour of the castle. Looking forward to seeing the restoration as the team goes forward with making it grand again ❤❤❤❤

[@KnockderryCastle]

Thank you so much for watching! ❤️

[@fionaskolsky560]

Again thank you for a fuller idea of what it’s like inside. Each to their own speciality it looks like a maze of unknown work to me. Fantastic that everything is being done properly. I’m enjoying the voyage and all your teams great work.

[@pgadeb]

Wow!! Just an amazing castle that is being shown the love again...Thank you to the artisans and the wonderful new stewards of this beautiful piece of history...Godspeed.

[@susieq6452]

Thank for the tour! I loved the bathtub in the Templeton suite & I would keep it. The castle is stunning now it will be magnificent when you get through with it.

[@chellerowe9390]

So beautiful. Thank you for restoring this grand building. ❤

[@anneg5720]

I said wow out loud perhaps 6 times at that view from the bedroom, absolutely incredible. No words can explain the beauty and serenity of that view. Scotland is such a beautiful country.

[@TerresaStoll-d9d]

Wow that bedroom view is incredible. Who wouldn't want to wake to that each day!

[@snakerivermom]

Thanks for the tour!

[@KnockderryCastle]

So glad you enjoyed it!

[@suzyb6195]

Amazing to see everything that is going on at once. Controlled chaos, I am guessing! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@CinevaCeva2]

What a great adventure, I look forward to each and every episode as this saga unfolds ❤

[@TheHavasu_77]

Please more of these longer videos, that was lovely!! ❤

[@KnockderryCastle]

We're so glad you enjoyed it! Stay tuned!

[@ji8044]

That is the most professional looking renovation I have ever seen on youtube of a chateau or castle. Wonderfully different in that regard!

[@pistolfish8688]

Chateau Du Pernon would be a contender but yep they are not cutting corners here which is what this building deserves. Kudos to the owners.

[@ji8044]

@@pistolfish8688 Another great project.

[@teenakennedy8914]

Awesome, pheww what a heavy workload. It will be far worth the effort in the end. Thanks for the update 👌❤️‍🔥🥰

[@Scotty7268]

Colin, thank you! The magnitude of the work is amazing and I hope you will soon be able to show completed sections. Is it possible to post a floor plan? That will help sort out the maze of rooms!!

[@rosemariedeschenes7013]

Thanks for the walk through. What an amazing job the artisans are doing❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@shehazi695]

Thank you so much for showing us through. What a massive undertaking on so many fronts! I’d be very keen to know your favourite or most interesting part of the castle or the project. In fact,the same for others working there too.. Thank you 🙏🏽

[@tjbren576]

Gosh, I don't even want to think about eh cost of this project...! But I'm glad someone is following through!!

[@SoundFire89]

Amazing I hope to see a lot more videos ❤

[@vickihand6974]

Beautiful castle

[@doug2078]

Great job so far !! 👍

[@deeannmcginnis2115]

The castle is so much bigger than I thought. I have to wonder just how long all of the restoration and repair is likely to take. Your professional craftsmen are going to make it incredible.

[@amynicholsonjones2349]

Amazing work

[@sasebedo]

Thank you for the tour. Such a beautiful castle. Can’t wait to see more videos of each completed room.

[@TheKaseno]

Thank you! 😃

[@robertgraham1088]

Love it. Thank you for producing these video. Great to see a grand piece of Victorian Baronial castle being restored to such a high standard rather than being left to-fall into ruin.

[@fantasiacamelot2899]

Thank you Colin for the tour! 🙏🏼Such a daunting task and yet so exhilarating! 🥰It’s nice to get some grasp of the layout and sequence of the rooms. Looking forward to the attic tour!❤️

[@kristicapp2751]

If I had unlimited wood; I would never leave the fireplace nook!❤❤❤

[@julietait6055]

So loved this video. Thank you for the tour. Looking forward to seeing the continued progress.

[@NateBergeson]

The Music Room is my favorite!

[@kimhorton6109]

I liked the master bedroom with the face around the fireplace. Amazing.

[@michielderuyter6011]

A lot of secret stackplaces in the wood panels and maybey secret passages ways. So beatyfull. My phantasy does not stop. ❤

[@musicallyyoshimi9651]

The ultimate in recycling!

[@darant2249]

So Beautiful..glad you have taken on this project

[@kimvanek2322]

Yay for saving the castle!!! 🎉 Sounds like you have a competent and caring crew to help!!! Good luck with all the hard work!! Thanks for sharing the process with us!! Sending love and cheers from Ohio!!❤😊

[@ronniemensch2400]

Thank you. This is an amazing building. Thank you for the walk through. I will watch with great interest as you bring the castle back room room. Finding craftsmen to do all the various repair, restore, and replace, the original paneling, the art work and the stained glass, etc. having those crafts past down to younger generations is so important into todays throw away society. It is impossible here, where I live as restoration is more a case of knock down and rebuild, or gut and modernize. I love watching artists at work on tradition crafts, I am hoping you will show some of those craftsmen working. Ronnie in Saskatchewan

[@ClanMacFarland71]

Nice place. It looks like you have years worth of work ahead of you. Thanks for the tour. 👍

[@truefalse207]

I'm a plumber in Glasgow with 14 years of experience working for a major construction coompany and I'd love to work with Colin & Performance Scotland but it's a bit of a trek for me out that way.

[@MadWiking]

This is hands down one of KZbin's most underrated channels!! ❤ This will be the next thing alongside the restauration of Chateau de Purnon in France. I am thrilled to follow the progress here at Knockderry Castle!!😊 I really hope you'll try to make time for a Q&A video soon. And please make a little video about the history about the castle, the buildings around it, and the original layout of the castle, even though you do not have the original plans. I am so looking forward to the coming months and years following Knockderry Castle!!❤😊 Please introduce yourself too!😉 If you have any questions related to the viking era, regarding the viking room, please let me know, as it is in my line of work!(engineer working with all things viking) Good luck, and thanks for sharing your awesome videos!! Best regards from Roy from Norway!!

[@Pammy-y7h]

Once his incredible council is finished, what are you going to use it for? Will it be at private residence a hotel or something for wedding venues or any kind of private venue inquiry just love your videos. Thank you so much for showing them.

[@Pammy-y7h]

Sorry, so hate spellchecker. It’s supposed to be once this incredible castle is finished.

[@NeverIn57]

@@Pammy-y7h I understo9d. Happens to everyone.

[@Scotty7268]

we read between the lines!

[@imlissyb]

WOW!!! I knew it was a massive project but seeing it level by level is amazing? Do you have an expected completion?

[@KnockderryCastle]

It's hard to say for sure, but we are hoping for completion by 2027. We'll try to keep you updated!

[@gregkrueger331]

What was the wooden arch on the wall in the “Viking room”? I wish you guys did long form videos showing all the work being done, either way it’s looking incredible so far.

[@tarahall1025]

Reserving the Templeton suite for September 21, 2027! ❤️❤️❤️ How is insulation handled? Do you use traditional batting like Rockwool or sprayed in between walls and floors?

[@saudilass]

Thanks for the tour and big qudos to everyone working on this incredible project. My head went bang about 4 times during the tour 😂 How you all find your way around with all the building paraphernalia? 🤯

[@KnockderryCastle]

Thank you so much for this comment! It’s true, it’s very easy to get lost 😂 Thank you for watching!

[@laurentbeaulieu4443]

Thank you for the walk through. So much work to do. Any completion date ???

[@petergardner2334]

thats truely worth wild project

[@MK-Farm-Michigan]

How long have you been working on the castle? Very nice looks like you have done alot of work already.

[@joemanflyer2001]

Would be nice to see a site plan and floor plans for every level!

[@evasvensson8521]

a map or sketch of the layout would help me to understand bettee! All very interesting

[@matteatme]

Crazy project. Do you have a budget you are trying to stick to or just trying to spend what’s needed.

[@KnockderryCastle]

We do have a budget we are trying to stick to. This might be a fun question to dive more into in a Q and A! Stay tuned!

[@MadWiking]

Yes, most definitly! Please do give us an update or explanation of the economy in this stunning project!!

[@user-fd6lh9nr2s]

It’s going to be amazing. Will you open to the public? If so, would you keep wheelchair accessibility in mind?

[@angelaweglarska8428]

It’s a braw castle ❤

[@ScentlessSun]

Are all of the structural issues like rotten wood and leaks resolved for the most part? Is there a rough date you guys expect to be moved in by?

[@pennyneal2456]

What loch is it sitting beside?

[@Green.witch.]

Loch Long

[@Sag3w0man]

New subscriber here from America. What relics or artefacts have you found while renovating the castle? Also, does the castle come with its ancestral ghosts?

[@cynthiabellino7168]

Does the castle have a chapel ?

[@mariecolon4212]

Nice tour but does the castle have a ballroom too

[@Sunshinepants-111]

So I see a lot of buildings and homes(?) around the castle.....do those belong to the castle property. What exactly is the castle's property comprised of?

[@blublum7916]

Odd layout to me. Also the bar would have been a keeper. Would have been fun to have town guests over for some drinks occationally. And that dinning room is too small imo for such a grand castle.
