Let me know your feedback on sound quality and video quality and fingers crossed I’ve mastered my new audio software and longer videos to come!! 🥳 🎉
The editing is top notch. The sound and video quality looks great. What a beautiful Castle, even in ruin
Many thanks, I appreciate your kind words
Loved the quality of the video production! And your voice-over is perfect. I appreciate the meter of speech, and your pronunciation. Never rushed, almost reverent in tone. Great job!
Excellent video and sound quality John, I would love to see a longer version with closeups of the stone work. Your historical narration is top notch sir. Thank you,
Looks and sounds great!
Looking forward to seeing the interior. As always your history lessons are wonderful.
Thanks Maureen. Much appreciated and thanks for the support!
Thank you...I am a Maxwell and know something of the story of the castle but your commentary encapsulated much...thank you John.
Many thanks and happy new year Janet! There will be a longer video coming soon!! Watch this space!!
Let’s go, let’s go treasure and Adventure🌺💕✌️👵
Absolutely beautiful castle even in ruin. I can imagine how wonderful it was back in the day. I agree that Longshanks had the 60 valiant Scotsmen put to death. He was a brutal and iron-fisted ruler. The sound and scenery are good. The tour guide is a keeper as well.
Aww thanks 😊 Glad you enjoyed thanks for watching
I think you mean the Mel Gibson version of EI. The actual King was well known for his generosity and gifts of estates and titles to Scots.
Everything was fantastic. Loved it. Thanks John.
I am a Maxwell. My fifth Great Grandfather who was a notorious Baptist convert who was represented by Patrick Henry for preaching in Urbanna Virginia. Thomas Maxwell, our roots go back to Scotland and this castle.
Sounded wonderful. I think the quieter tone of voice you use to explain the history reflects genuine awe and pride for these valiant Scottish defenders. I say this because I am a Texan in America and we use the same reverence even we are in the vicinity of the Alamo.( lots of Scotsmen fought there as well.) Can't wait to see the inside!❤
This is beautiful John. I'd love to see inside. Thank You
Excellent outcome. Great voice over, calm & compationate.What a treasuretrove awaits your continued projects. Well done, John.
Really like this. The bits of history are interesting and the photography is great.
I am loving these longer form tours!
good sound excelent video clarity
the quality and clarity is first class John
Excellent 👌 many thanks James
Looks and sounds great!!! All the way from California....We love your videos and history lessons.
Aww thanks 😊 glad to hear it!! Much appreciated
Hi John. Greetings from Canada. Video and sound quality is awesome. I look forward to the longer videos. Keep up the good work. I love The Scottish Detectorist vids as well! ❤😊
Many thanks Marilyn. I’ve watched it on my phone and iPad and all looks good, on my 52” tv a little grainy, but that’s probably because my TV is rubbish 😂 thanks for the feedback
The picture and sound quality are so great, I felt like I was there! The movement was very smooth. I think you’ve masted the program. Thanks for sharing!
Much appreciated Jenny and thanks for taking the time to comment. Hope you aren’t missing Scotland too much… assuming of course you are ‘the’ Jenny Bruns 😆
@@visitscotlandtours1 missing Scotland so much! Your pics and videos help, though. Keep them coming!!
Loved the video, John. Looked professional. Great information on the castle. I’d love to see a tour of the inside.
Wonderful, thanks so much
What an amazing castle! I’d love to see the inside. Great video, I’ve subscribed and can’t wait for more.
Outstanding looking ruin. I've never seen a castle like it. The quality of the editing looks amazing. Good stuff. Bless up bro 👊
Much appreciated as ever Nick! Legend
You have mastered it well John, perfect, look forward to the tour inside the castle. x
Much appreciated and best wishes
Visited that beautiful castle twice. 2016 and 2019. Our guide also took us into the woods behind the castle to see an older ruin. Very interesting history in your beautiful Scotland
👍 John has grip on this, whitout loosing the camera or forgetting something! I we pretend it was 1 take!
🤣🤣😜🔝❤️
10x10! Another great video. Watching videos on this channel while I wait for my appointment. Makes me really wish to see Scotland one more time. Cheers! 🥰👍
Glad you enjoyed thanks for watching
I would love to see more. My ancestors lived here. Thank you so much for the video
👍
Thanks for watching
Great video. He definitely hung them and murdered them. I love these videos. Thank you.
Much appreciated! I agree! He wasn’t called the hammer of the Scot’s for handing out gifts!!!
The quality is great. Just like being there!
Beautiful, John!
Thanks 😊
Love it. More please 😎✌🏻
Thanks Big Seany
Brilliant editing and video quality. Sounds great, too. 🙂
Excellent, thanks so much and I’m glad you enjoyed
You did well. If I ever dreamed of a Castle this would be my dream
beautiful video. sound is good. would love to see and hear more. thanks
Awesome ❤ More Please😊
Thanks Molly
That was a great video. I would love to see inside. And I don't believe for one minute that Longshanks was benevolent.
🎉❤Very fine video…
Thanks, more to come!!!
Nice one John, thanks for posting. Cheers, John.
Looks great John. Good job.
Thanks Sharlene
Perfect, give us more please. Even all the way from Australia.
Great video, I scraped my initials on one of the walls inside the castle,way back in the late 60s. Caerlaverock was my childhood playground.
Oooh naughty George 😂 wonder if they are still there 🤔
10 years ago they were.@@visitscotlandtours1
This is a great video, it makes me want to go back to Scotland.
Video and audio or great.
I’d love to see more of that!
all fantastic!
Thanks 👍
What an unusual shape and with a beautiful defensive moat! Obviously didn’t stop the invaders eventually and such a shame it stands as a ruin. I’d love to see inside it ! What’s the purpose of 5he scaffolding? Great narration as always John and I really enjoy seeing Scotland until I can one day see it for real myself 😊
Braw video...good info on all things Scottish
I think the quality is great, I would watch a video of the interior of the Castle. Taikuu John..
Loving it john!!! Great video footage and sound quality keep them coming mate i love your hostory lessons and would love a tour with you around any castles in Scotland one day thanks for sharing keep up the hard work mate 👍
looks great, I'd love to see more!
Incredible what that castle has seen over the centuries. I'm in awe of these castles.
Yep, a very good product John...Nice work👌
Om.hopi g one day you will pop across and do Burleigh Castle in Milnathort. This little castle was (my research leads me to believe) the ancestral home of my great grandfather x12 Sir James Balfour of Pittendreich!
The video and audio are wonderful.
Thank you again for such wonderfully educational and beautifully done videos, John!
They are truly appreciated.
I’m guessing that metal detecting the most would not be possible because the site is probably protected, but the treasures that could be found there….😁👍🏻
Greetings from Denmark. Great video. Nice quality in both video and sound. I would love to see more of the interior of the castle. I would like to have a map in the start of the video to show where in Scotland we are :)
More to come!! Thanks for watching and for the feedback
Oh my god it’s stunning! 🥺🫨
Longshanks was a prick, he would have killed them!!
You gotta do really long videos of ALL the castles! I’m Australian and the oldest things we have here are rocks!!! 😂
Great Video on that and hope you tell us more about the King some time .I live in America and know very little about English kings just that we kicked one out of here long ago. Just few wee years to all of you. Thanks for the Show and Tell love them.
Wonderful quality audio, video and narration and really fascinating material. I'd like to think Edward I spared them but from what I've heard about him I doubt it :(
The video and sound look great. Only a couple spots at the beginning where you went back and forth on the castle. A cut back to a wider view would have shown it all and been less jittery.
I too would like a zoom in on some of the better parts of the stonework.
Thank you for these videos and hope this feedback helps.
Our beautiful Scotland and it’s castles 🐶🏴☀️🌲🌲
Great video John 👌
It must be absolutely killing you not to be able to detect that spot😏
Great sound and video. Hope to see the full version. Please (maybe?) show a map at the start of the full video of where your castle is located?? That would be great to know... 😉
Many thanks and yes! I’ll take all your suggestions on board, many thabks
You were in D&G, very local to us!
I was indeed, just passing through, but I did go to college there many many moons ago!! Happy memories
It’s a bit run down but hey, great foundation and it’s nothing a bit of a handyman can’t fix.
Hey John! The video is beautifully done. The sound could be a little louder. That's my only critique. Can't wait to see inside.
Great video John. Looks like a lovely day and the camera/editing worked well. Stay safe.👍👍
Much appreciated and thanks for taking the time to comment
@@visitscotlandtours1 I always try to comment either here or your other channel.👍
The quality of the video was great. I can't wait to see the longer video!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Sheri. Much appreciated
My ancestors castle
Wow
Interesting locations, great filming and excellent narrative. As some of your followers have already mentioned, I miss a map of the locations in your short videos for a quick overview. Adding drone photography would definitely give it another dimension, but also a cost to be factored in. My family is watching your videos and we are planning a trip to Scotland next year based on these so we will likely contact you at some stage. As I will be at the Detectival next month, I may even bump in to you there already. All the best from Sweden. /Patrik
Many thanks Patrik. Feedback most welcome. I’ll take it all on board! Best wishes
John
I loved it John looking forward to seeing your fuller version. I watch a lot of CZcams videos and love history have you made one on Blackness Castle? I used to play around and about it as a child but really never knew any of the history of it.
Great news that you are thinking of making some longer videos. Almost as good as being there and hearing about the history is illuminating. More please John
I think the transitions were good, and the audio was ok. I had to turn it up a bit to hear you, but you sounded clear.
Much appreciated Robert. Might have had my mic a bit low as I didn’t have my metal detecting harness on!
I liked both the sound and video quality. But most of all, I appreciate the research you've done for this and other videos. Your tours are not just pretty views but lso of substance. As an American, I also enjoy your soft Scottish burr.
Thank you for your feedback, keep watching for lots more coming this year.
Great quality video from what I can see and hear! Fabulous castle and amazing to think it dates from the 13th century!
Many thanks and best wishes
I hope in the future to see a video on my ancestral home. Mugdock park. Subscribed to your detector channel, now this channel also.
John it looks great! Happy to see the only "moated" castle on the island- look forward to seeing your videos and enjoy your Scottish accent each time!
Many thanks 😊 💕 hope you are well!!
Wow! What a beautiful castle.
Great video John, your voice sounds slightly different in this video, it sounds better in your detecting videos IMHO 🤷♂️
Many thanks Gary! Not sure why, but maybe I have a detecting voice and a Sunday voice 😂 best wishes
@visitscotlandtours1 not meant in anyway to be a criticism John, merely an observation. Good luck buddy 😉👍
Moreee
Video was spot on,i would love to see the inside of the castle and learn more about it
Definitely more to come! Thabks
Hi John. Greetings from Germany. Great good video in quality. In my mind there is to many flow and walking around in the video. I ve problems with sickness in cars and on ships and for people with these problems they could have uncomfortable feelings while watching. 😢
Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated and I’ll bear that in mind for the future
Greetings from Arizona! Video is great, sound is maybe a bit low in volume. That being said, I'd still watch even if you held the camera upside down.
Another fantastic video tour! Your sound/video quality was crisp and clear!
Excellent, thanks Jennifer. Much appreciated
I was going to add you were missing your hat 🧢 😂
Hung and muurdered.
Haha 😛
Excellent video and commentary. I very well be could be wrong but I don't think there was one molecule of mercy in Edward 1st body, particularly regarding Scotland.
Many thanks for the feedback. And yes, I agree about Edward I!! Hammer of the Scot’s for a reason!!
Greetings from New York. The video quality and sound is perfect. Have you ever thought about getting a drone?
Hope you took the Deus mate😉
Haha 😂 I wish!!
@@visitscotlandtours1 Immagine if you could drain the moat for a fortnight. 😄
What's going on with the scaffolding? Is there some repair going on? Is there considerable opposition to restoring a historic property and castle? I'm sure the expense would be enormous yet some of the castles are quite magnificent and it seems it would save them from further ruin and disintegration.
Is there a practical reason for building a triangular curtain wall?
Thanks Simòn. There are many different theories for the three walls versus four but the most likely is it’s built into an outcrop of bedrock which is a triangular shape and the moat is then fed by springs, so likely that’s the reason. Thanks for watching
Are they rebuilding parts of the building or just stabilizing it?

Video is top notch. Your sound needs to be turned up. When I have to put my ear buds in just to hear it. Have enjoyed your videos, sound is not great. Sorry...
We all love old castle, great job m8
Much appreciated
I live in Thornhill about 14 miles from Dumfries. I need to go back to this Castle.
