You know what I would love to see? A breakdown of each one of these homes… With photos of the interiors. You could narrate and tell us things about each one. What I’ve learned about being a CZcams influencer is that you can always break down topics further and further into more detail for your viewers. I, for one, would absolutely love to see the interiors of each of these castles palaces and homes. Thank you for all you do!
❤
I agree!
Me too
I would love some further detail on these estates as well.!
Agree will be stunning
Me too
I visited Sandringham house in the summer last year as i live in Norfolk, it's such a beautiful and peaceful house inside and out and can see why it was a favourite of the late queen
Spoiler: it's a LOT of homes
Spoiler, it's not. Most of the places she lists are not owned by the Royal Family.
This made me laugh 😅
It’s a lot of homes. BUT the question is who actually owns them. Simple: Balmoral and Sandringham privately owned be the King. Same goes for Highgrove. Buckingham palace, Windsor, St James’ and Kensington as well as I think Clarence house, may be royal residences but they are owned by the Crown, not the King or a member of the royal family. It is like with the crowns. The Imperial StateCrown, not to mention St Edward’s crown and the scepter and orb do not belong to the monarch. The monarch gets to wear them, or live in the palaces but it is part of the job. It isn’t his personal possession. On the other hand there are properties like Balmoral, that are his personal holiday home and a fabulous collection of jewels and paintings that are part of the royal collection. Crown and royal family, two distinct things not always easy to untangle.
I just have to say, I really appreciate your annunciation. The pace, diction, and annunciation you use makes it a joy to listen to your narration. Thank you!
Wow, thank you!
Love your lessons Julie! I had no idea there that many castles and houses are owned by the Royals. Thanks for your Saturday tutorials!
Their Not owned by the royals , Buckingham Palace and Windsor Palace are owned by the state ,
The UK is darn lucky to have you my dear.
It would be helpful to distinguish privately owned properties and state properties used by the Royal family. And which are simply museums
I'd known about all of these, though I never knew Barnwell had a Montague association! Hopefully, whoever does end up buying it will appreciate its history!
Interesting.... I remember during my 1978 trip to England, we toured the grounds of the Tower of London. We were informed that the White Tower was still an official royal palace, although the last monarch to use it as a residence was Elizabeth I.
That is what we were told the first part of August.
There are Crown properties that are classified as historical royal palaces. Technically, they are still official residences, but in reality haven't been used that way for some time.
Julie…..one of the things i love about you. From what i can see you are true to yourself. Never, upitty or stuffy. Simply love. You deliver to us all such very interesting things about England, while never letting go of your heritage of being American. God bless you. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Sent from another American….Italian American woman
Wow, thank you! xx Julie
England? Why do Americans always say England when the video is about the whole United Kingdom . The UK comprises Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland, not just England. The monarch is not, as so many Americans seem to think, the Queen or King "of England ", but monarch of the whole of the UK.
Thank you, Julie, for this very informative presentation. I appreciate your reverence at mention of Queen Elizabeth II. The residences all look very stately and it would be lovely to tour those open to the public. Unfortunately, I reside in 🇨🇦 and will likely never have the opportunity. Instead, I very much watching your historical vlogs.
Sorry, very much enjoy watching….
Thank you Julie! Best description of the Royal homes I’ve seen and I have searched many times to see which survived the Tudor era. Fascinating that Henry VII gifted the Montague family one! Wish you could buy it back! I always think of Thomas Wolsey when Hampton Court is mentioned and QE1 of course when Hatfield is mentioned.
She had probably typo on prompter. In 1540 reigned of course Henry VIII.
Breathtaking. I'm always fascinated by the cash to maintain (staff, upkeep of its physical structures) and whether all that is private or British tax payers foot much of the bill but get none of the benefits. At a human level, I'm also just in awe how many homes a family needs! My 1800 square foot rambler is a normal American 1950's home and just fine. It's hard to emotionally grasp someone calling several places "home" and whether you buy many of the same item for those creature comforts you want when you're in somewhere you call home (vs staying a hotel.) Of course, this fascination is one reason I fell in love with your show and now your CZcams channel! :)
The revenue from the Crown Estate, (rents and rates etc) all go into the public Treasury (ie the Government)
Most of these are owned by the Crown Estate not the Royal Family. Balmoral and Sandringham Estate are privately owned by the Queen. The Royal Family generate a lot of income and employ a lot of people and very little tax payers money is used
The profits from the Crown Estates properties are paid to UK Govt which, in turn, goes to the benefit of the taxpayer.
This was so interesting, Julie. Such beautiful homes, all of them. However, none of them is as beautiful as that dress you are wearing 🤗. As far as my favorite stately home goes- I have to say that Mapperton is my favorite of all the stately homes, and I love, love, love what you and Luke are doing with this gracious old soul of a house. Blessings to you sweetheart.
Beautiful castles, Julie. I enjoyed your explanation of each property. Thank you for this video
I love the information you provide.
My favorite is: Frogmore HOUSE.
Fabulous overview of all the beautiful royal castles and homes.
My favorite is HolyroodHouse because my 6th Great Grandfather, Capt. William Craig, Sr. was born there!
Thank you for sharing these beautiful homes and palaces! Very educational! Loved seeing all of them! I wish your other family home wasn't being sold!
Dumfries is my favorite ❤️ with all it's Chippendale furniture 🤩
I’d love to know more about the Bagshot Park - its interior and especially, its intricate wood arts and further history. And if I may add, St. George’s Chapel, it is where Prince Edward and his wife Sophie Helen, The Countess of Wessex got married too. Now, the Royal couple been married for over 23 years.
Isn't this near where the Sackville-Bagginses and the Chubb-Bagginses live, near Hobbiton?.
Thank you Julie, I loved this historical castle information ❤️
So interesting but I have a question- do the royals own all of these outright? I thought some was owned by the Royals and some like Buckingham are owned by the country. I absolutely love your dress today.
@@okienana11 yes I thought many of these were in the "Royal Trust" Only a few like Balmoral are owned outright.
Most are owned by the country only sandringham and balmoral are owned by king
So many!! And all unique and beautiful. Thank you, Julie.
My favorite is and easy one. Llwynywermod, King Charles' home in Wales. The palaces are grand and I would love to tour them and even be able to stay a night or two, but Llwynywermod is a home I would happily live in. The renovations they made to the place are lovely, environmentally friendly, respect the history of the house and give it cozy, country charm. I think it's probably Charles' favorite residence to visit.
Awesome to see all these homes. Thanks for sharing this with us
Their version of a cottage cracks me up. Thank you for the explanation.
Thank you for sharing this interesting description of the Royal castles.
Thank you so much for sharing this information with us. The knowledge of each property is amazing and gives us understanding of each property and how it was used over the years along with who dwelled there. Each property is so lovely and from a historical perspective they should all be maintained for generations to come. I certainly do 🎉wish you would have been able to purchase the property associated with Montague family but we understand 😢. Love ❤️ your channel and continue to inform us. You work so hard researching the subject matter and I know it is time consuming. ❤❤❤❤❤😂😂
Only just found your channel and have found it full of lovely information about the world of Royals
These are such beautiful castles. ❤
I have just watched your Sudeley Castle video which was posted 2 years ago, and cannot get any others from before then to come up on my screen. Your videos are simply wonderful - I have loved every one, from learning all about Mapperton House, to your little house in Fivizzano, to the differences between British and American ways, your yoga videos, Christmas at Mapperton (now that we are coming in to the holidays again, I had to watch them all) - all of them! How do I get the ones before the Sudeley Castle video to come up? I am subscribed to your channel and since you have been on CZcams for 8 years I know there is so much more to see!
I've visited Highgrove a few times and it's my favourite. I've also been privileged to tour Buckingham Palace and Hampton Court Palace. Some of the others, I've only seen in passing.
I really enjoyed learning about all the royal homes. There were some I have never heard of! My favourite is Windsor Castle for it's history, castle architecture, location and significance.
Love it I will watch this over and over very educational.Thank you Julie
You are so welcome!
This was great -thank you !!
Always such a great history lesson whenever we watch you. Love all the information you share with us 😍😘
Wonderful, Julie. Thank you so much for sharing. 😊
Loved this video, so interesting and educational!
Absolutely fabulous, SO interesting, great photos, thanks , Julie
Really enjoyed watching this, lots of new info! Thanks so much 👏👏👏😊🙏
Always wanted to know ! Thank you so much❤
Ok there was a few I didn't even know about. Great episode Julie! Thank you.
Julie very good video regarding the different Royal Palace.
Never Say Never !. With how your CZcamsd going. You are reaching all over the world. I'm from Fiji.
Please keep at it and even across all forums of social media.
I'm calling it beforehand. YOU WILL BE MAKING 8 FIGURES !. CLAIM IT. lol ❤😂🎉🎉🎉
Also: Thank You for being soo Kind with your mentions of Meghan. Your comment section is so kind as well. Clearly a reflection of You and your family being so classy and humble .
❤
Viscountess I have enjoyed this interesting video. I'm sure there are many more than these that have fallen to ruins. That might be a good subject for one of your videos! Thank you again!
Wonderful run down of the Castles/Estates.
There were a lot i didnt know about. Thanks for the education!
Yay an extra video today! ❤
If all your followers invested £32,000 each we could buy the house and be part owners with you Julie;)
You are a little ball of energy …love you … you are a fountain of knowledge and I enjoy watching and listening to you
Wish you could buy it! Croxteth Hall used to be in our family until the last Earl died in 72, then it went to the Liverpool city council. I would give both legs to own and operate it.
thank you, i love your channel because of you, your interactions with your family and the history you share.
Thanks for watching!
I love your outfit & the room you’re in.
It all looks very fancy.
Hello AMerican Vicountess, Greetings from Washington DC! I just found your cook book the other day and I made my husband an amazing meal! It was so healthy and it tasted FABULOUS! Thank you! You have many talents.
Very Educational !!!
Well done!
Thank you so much for your videos. You are a wonderful representative of your family. I enjoy watching, and learning. I adore the person you are. Many Blessings, from Montana.
Thank you so much!
IsI your ancestors from US was a dollar brides? Just wonder.
Love this video.
Thank you Viscountess Consort Julie for explain the royal residents used by the Royal Family.
She's not a "Consort".
That was interesting. I kept thinking how easy it would be to be a squatter in one of those homes that are rarely occupied. 😅The massive amount of land that is attached to some of the residences is astonishing. Thank you for the lesson. 🏛
Julie, you could have mentioned that St. James Palace hosts diplomatic events because all ambassadors to the UK are accredited to "The Court of St. James."
Also, I'm pretty sure that Buckingham Palace --like Windsor Castle -- is a Crown Estate owned by the nation. They are not the personal property of the Royal Family.
Julie.. thanks for such wonderful information on the royals.👏🏻💕
You are so welcome!
Highgrove is my favorite because of the gardens. ❤
I think Charles did a lot to improve the gardens and even added onto the outside of the building, as it looked very bland and simple when he first bought it. Diana hated it there.
Absolutely loved this.
Your videos are so fresh! Just like your haircut! Love your channel! 👑🇬🇧🇺🇸
Thank you so much!!
Wonderful video. Most interesting.
Glad you enjoyed it
Love Kensington. Haven't been there in person yet but love the photos.
I hope you can do a tour of each one so exciting to me I love a little rock cottage.
Brilliant vlog
They all are so beautiful!
I only visited Windsor casle, but it was amasing during Cristmas time, a huge tree, a lot of armor? nice grounds. I loved it .
This was fun!
Wow. Those houses are almost as expensive as a tract home here in California! Lol.
Waiting patiently for the it🤩😍👍 all the way from 🇿🇲🇿🇲🇿🇲 zambia
Thanks!
thank you so much!
Wow! That’s a lot! Curious - I wonder how many of these are owned outright by the Royal Family (like Sandringham) vs others like (Buckingham Palace) that are owned by the Crown Estate??
Some are owned privately, some by the Crown Estate (basically the UK Government), some by The Duchies of Cornwall (Prince of Wales)and Lancaster (The Monarch), and other trusts
I agree. It would nice to see a breakdown of specific ownership because Buckingham Palace is not owned by the Royal family as opposed to Sandringham and Balmoral which are. The lesser known properties would be interesting.
Love it! And your energy and presentation make it so engaging.
However, may I ask the background music be lowered? It competes with your narration and quite distracting.
Omg Dalphin House I love it .
I never heard of Craigowan Lodge but I really like it.
You didn’t mention Adelaide Cottage 😉
Yes, too much of H&M 🙄
Thank you for the information. What is the palace that Prince Albert had built? I think it is on an island. The only palace I saw was Buckingham. I would love to see the others. Greetings from Canada.
You are thinking of Osborne House on the Isle of Wight. Prince Albert bought it and then rebuilt it to his specifications for Queen Victoria. After her death it was gifted to the nation by Edward VII and is now run by English Heritage and is open to the public. You can actually hire parts of it for weddings and functions.
That was really interesting! I'd love to know more about the cottages and lodges and holiday homes on the various estates. That is quite a portfolio. Gorgeous. I wonder why the Duke of Gloucester is selling Barnwell rather than just putting it back in the house-pool?
The duke hasn't lived there for many years and its been rented out. I believe he left as he was struggling to afford the upkeep on the house and estate. Maybe selling it to avoid his son having to pay inheritance tax.
I knew they had a lot of residences, but not that many.
Wonderful video! But you forgot Osborne House
If only a very, very rich person would walk up and buy the Montague family house again and gift it back to all of you! Sounds so unbelievable but if the right person should read this and they have lots of money * yes, there are some super rich people who could do this and think nothing of it! Do not give up this dream that in some grand way it will all come back. It is not really asking too much.
Thank you for this interesting and very educational information about the 30 -plus Royal Homes of the royals. The only thing is moving that much or just trying to stay in so many homes throughout the year could be quite confusing and pulling up your roots in that way is not always stabilizing the family.. But sharing it with your grown family and making sure extended and close family, all have places to live, is highly regarded.
You may consider a charity to collect a fiat ot sudo tax on all sandwiches sold in England on the premises that your family owns the copyright to the name sandwich. All donations go to that charity to buy back the castle ok?
You forgot Rideau Hall in Ottawa Canada. 🇨🇦
What an awesome vintage dress.
They certainly own a lot of palaces, homes and cottages!!
Yes, between The Crown and the Royal Family - they sure do!
I only watched this video to get a better look at that dress 🤩 that dress is beautiful!
Love your dress
Sorry to correct you , Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle are Not owned by the royals , the Queen had just two private propertys , Balmoral estate and Sandringham, everything inside royal residences is old handed down or gifted .
Just a couple of slight corrections if I may, the Royal Family only own Balmoral House and Sandringham outright and those pass down the line through Charles and William, after being "bought" back by George VI from the Edward when he abdicated etc, the majority of other properties you mention are controlled/owned by one of two entities, one being the Crown Estates, which manage the likes of Buckingham Palace and Clarence House and secondly the Historic Royal Palaces which control and manage the likes of Hampton Court Palace and the Tower of London.
The exceptions being the likes of Gatcombe Park, Barnwell and Thatched House Lodge which were privately owned, by their royal inhabitants.
As for Hampton Court, that was originally built for Cardinal Wolsey and "gifted" (taken from him) to Henry VIII before he died, and massively expanded by Henry VIII and by later Monarchs until the whole new wing was built by William and Mary following the Restoration.
Llwynwermod is also available to rent through the Duchy of Cornwall.
Thirty plus, nope didn't know that and didn't know palaces had apartments.
Give me the cute homely little Ivy Cottage any day over any of the huge palace’s.
But Meghan complainned of all the residences she was offer to live in. No one was enough for her!
Love it. Didn't know they own a lot.
And we haven't even talked about the houses they own overseas, commercial property or London properties they own and manage or lease.
Major Omission - She failed to say that St.James's Palace is the senior palace, and that foreign missions are accredited to the Court of St James's
I wonder how much it would cost to pay all of the Admission Fees to tour all of these Royal residences that are open for tours. I've toured only Windsor Castle and Buckingham Palace.
How do you even keep track of 700+ rooms??? 🤔
I think I would like to visit Sandringham House or the Castle of Mey. Also Highgrove is just beautiful and I would love to see Birkhall as well.
Who am I kidding? The answer is ALL of them! 🤣
so amazing, so many beautiful homes and prince harry got a former servant's abode when he got married.
