Plz don't change how you are. I fail to understand why people think it is okay to rudely suggest changes they require in others behaviour. You are both very funny. I love your honest interaction. It may be difficult but ignore those haters...even the ones who say...oh but I love your channel, after they have been insulting. Have a great week! Mapperton is doing so well under your direction.
They asked for us to reply with our thoughts. It wasn't RUDE of us to reply. I am not a HATER. I have trouble understanding the content when they talk over each other. Today was much easier for me. Perhaps I should ask you to not be RUDE to people with a different opinion than you.
I just love when Luke joins in and goes off on his own tangents😉 You’ve both accomplished so much in a relatively short amount of time. I’m very looking forward to the AGA episode, no matter which channel (though Luke has a point on it being part of Mapperton). I know I’ve heard you speak of your London home, so my question is how much time are you living at Mapperton? Do you both have other businesses/careers that keep you in London? Will you ever live full-time at Mapperton?
I love how you two are with each other. You remind me of a younger version of my parents. Constantly teasing each other with so much love and laughter.
I'm so proud of you Jules and Luke!❤️ Bless your hearts, and your channel makes me so happy, I'm so happy for you.. the place looks amazing, you guys are just really doing a wonderful job there!
What an incredible 5 years!! I love hearing you both talking about your experiences! I think that both channels should do "Aga" shows!!!! I love your kitchen!!! The Sitting Room is both elegant and comfy looking.The restoration of the house and stables is remarkable!! It must have been an enormous amount of work.It's all so beautiful!! The "Tortoise House" and pool are really interesting. I look forward to see more of ideas come to life!!! Love from Vermont
House looks great and bravo for keeping the traditional look but updating it as well. You have done fantastic work preserving the history and culture of the country house while making it a home.
Love this. Don't change how you Naturally interact with each other it makes me laugh. So entertaining. Fascinating to see the changes you have made to the estate. It's a beautiful place ❤
The enormity of taking on the renovation of Mapperton boggles my mind! There are many people, that if they were presented with the necessity of such projects, would get hives and have a nervous breakdown. I'd probably be one of them. 😳 I admire the results you are achieving; simply beautiful! By the way, the folks producing your videos are very talented. They are so well done.
I love the banter between Julie and Luke. It is so precious. Sometimes, I do wish that Luke would just reach over and gently cover her mouth so he can get his words in. 🤣
I enjoy all of your episodes, but for some reason this one really struck my heart. I love how you have shared with us what you have done to your beautiful home. We now know what you go through to keep these lovely homes livable. I so enjoy when you share the interior of your lovely home. Just by listening to you two I can tell it is a a partnership of love for one another and love of your home. I am from the States and hope to visit your beautiful country. Thank you for what you are doing!
I loved this vlog. I love seeing all of the different projects that have happened in order to update Mapperton without changing her basic fibre. It's not just a home, it's a business and a vital part of the community that surrounds it. You have so far managed to keep it fairly cozy for your family although I would also probably be wearing layers of clothing like Julie does. I love to be warm.
I love your pulley - drying rack - I have one in my utlity room even in our 1980's house, and they're wonderful, never need to use a tumble drier! They were so common in the kitchens in tenement flats in Scotland - we put one back into our daughter's flat in Glasgow.
I would like for Luke to explain slower how the heating system works, sounds so interesting, plus is eco friendly and saves money, great! Looking forward watching that episode as well (please).
Glad you guys saved it, Luke was very lucky marrying Julie who cares so much about history and took on such a big task of saving an English estate. Wonderful couple.
The two of you are just lovely, enchanting, and wonderfully delightful to watch. Mapperton's history will be blessed from all the care you have and will invest in it. Thank you for sharing your lives with the rest of us.
Aga's are so interesting. I remember years ago reading a romance novel and an Aga was mentioned. I couldn't find much about it at the time but now there is so much more info. One of the French Chateau vlogs I watch shows one being fixed and used for baking. I'd love to see a vlog on that. Keep up the good work you 2 (and all the support staff) it's an enjoyable watch.
As a young bride, I visited my British husband's family home, which had the almighty Aga in the kitchen. I was asked if I could make some breakfast and then felt absolutely baffled, as they have no dials. With no idea of what I was doing, I managed to overcook the eggs, undercook the bacon, and felt like an absolute failure. After that, I requested a demonstration, and realized what a useful thing that was, also heated water for a bathroom. I've had enormous respect for them ever since.
It is a landmark property. It's about preserve and restore. For 20 years I Worked at a Hotel which had a gorgeous ancient Ballroom. The intricate mosaic tile floors were carpeted over. The walls could not be touched. Not even to install wiring. Julie is so jubilant and elated making the little Italian house tailored to her own vision. The smallest item,she flits like a hummingbird to locate at the antique market.
Another incredible journey of Mapperton. I may well require a lie down, after processing the time and expense incurred with these projects! : ) Don't change a thing with how you both are, individually and as a couple. I realize, perhaps for some, it's a "bit much" or disrespectful with the sometimes simultaneous banter but I know it's not that at all. I thoroughly enjoy it but understand there are those who don't. We all have varied ways of relating. I sense a deep bond, respect and love for each other. Thank you both (and the team) for a wonderful tour of Mapperton's progress since 2016
Okay, so I think the most important question at this point is: How did your parents live in that house for so long without the upgrades specifically the hot water and the heating??
You two are so cute together. And oh my gosh! You have done a lot of work and have such huge amount left to do! This is not a project, it's a lifestyle!
When I stayed with 5 families in the UK (back in 1985) I remember one of my host mothers putting my jeans in the “stove” which was an aga. Bit of a culture shock for this Hoosier!
Yes, stay just how you both are! I love your enthusiasm, chemistry and love for each other, your family history and country history! Don't change a thing!
You two are so adorable together 🤗 Oh my goodness, please don't ever change for the camera!!! My husband and I have been together for 23 years, 20 of them married and we completely understand the, what it shows is a solid marriage based on love and friendship ❤️
"We have to thank everyone for watching our video!" "Thanks." 🤣🤣🤣 Your dynamic is so fun! Love it. Humor is so important in marriage! Great job you two!
I love how you both are it's really sweet to see to couples who been together so long and respect each other's unique personalities ❤️❤️🌟 Great video thank you.
What a great video! I had no idea of the many improvements you've made since moving in. Mapperton is a huge responsibility and what you have accomplished is nothing short of impressive. Especially while raising four children and navigating a multi-generational situation. It can't be easy, but you're making it work. What an awsome, hard working team you are! ❤👏👏👏
For someone new to your chanel, this was great to learn the story so far. Thank you. I love how you both contribute in the discussion and your personalities really bring the Mapperton and Montague story to life as we get to know you and the family. The only thing I would say, is that sometimes it’s hard to understand what you are both trying to say when you both talk at once. I only mention it as I love your stories so much I don’t want to miss anything! I now follow Julie on American Viscountess too. You have a real talent as a presenter, Julie. I am so glad CZcams brought your Chanel to my attention. Looking forward to following all your adventures in the future and wishing you (from Australia) continuing success. 🇦🇺😊
The copper pipe story reminds me of a scene out of the movie Moonstruck about the cost of copper piping . So many projects, love the old kitchen sink !!! ❤️
Beautiful home and charming couple. You've accomplished so much in a short amount of time. Luke you look just like your father! I'm sure you never heard that before. 😆
I often wonder what happens to the families of younger sons in the Gentry - particularly from many years ago. I suppose they could eventually be our teachers, trades people and so on?
Excellent recap of upgrades!!! Incredible!!! Your living many peoples dream, talking same time and all! Never mind the hard work, redo's and buckets of 💷 😆
I LOVED THIS! I love "behind the scenes" information in general, and this one was a kicker! Loved hearing the both of you talk about all the ups and downs (and ugh...the downs were really downers, you poor things!) about your lovely home. More please! :-D
Thank you Luke and Julie. I enjoyed this video and I learned so much, such as lurgy. A new word not even recognized on my auto spellcheck! The history and the behind the scenes workings of theses old estates is fascinating. I am so glad that I discovered your channels many months ago. 👏👏
It looks lovely. I'm sure it was difficult to live through as I've renovated my home to a certain extent and really love the results. You have a right to be proud of all the thoughtful work you have put into the renovations. Enjoy.
Luke cracks me up! These videos are so funny when you do them together. 😂 A bucket list to-do of mine is to visit Mapperton (right up there with Highclere Castle) and hopefully run into Luke & Julie AND Luke's parents!!
You have quite the undertaking! You're doing a fabulous job! I enjoy listening to both of you! You always make me laugh! I have cold blood too, Julie!!! 😆 Then, what did I do? I married a Canadian where it's frigid cold and snowy all winter in Calgary!!! 🥶 I would love an Aga! I sometimes turn our kitchen stove on and just stand beside it!! 😆 We usually head South for the Winters, however. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures! Hugs!
Stay as you both are. Natural and never mind overlapping as it’s not annoying at all coming from you two lol… Used to have those dryer bars above my bathtub in my Milan’s apartment. Bigger and longer and I miss it!
Great content folks as usual and well thought out and planned restoration of the historical estate. On the word Lurgi (lurgy, plural lurgies). Meaning....a fictitious, highly infectious disease; often used in the phrase "the dreaded lurgi", sometimes as a reference to flu-like symptoms. Lurgi is a valid scrabble word.
Why so many views from the pool cleaning? Cleaning incredibly dirty things that are transformed (made right) , is very satisfying to watch..... and get HUGE # of views. Look at : mowing lawns, cleaning rugs and even de-barnacling ( not a word) sea turtles........HUGE # of views! All the best!
Wow, that is an incredible amount to achieve in such a short time. I’m excited to keep watching in the years to come & maybe one day I can visit England & tour the gardens there (as well as all of the other beautiful estates featured on Julie’s channel).
So fascinating. Home renovations in a middle class American home are annoying & costly. Can’t imagine how challenging it is for a huge manor home. That drying bar in the kitchen is genius. Never seen that anywhere before or in colonial American homes I’ve visited. Julie.. you need to buy Cuddle Duds underclothes to keep you warm. I use them in winter and they’re great. Not too bulky. Cold winters here in Pennsylvania and the office I worked in was freezing all winter. Helped tremendously.
Love watching the two of you together! What a lot of work you've done already and the future projects sound interesting as well. I'm very glad I don't live in an historic house (even though they're beautiful) because it sounds like it's a never ending (expensive) job! All the best from Missouri.
lol--digressing a bit is what you do best. I have often admired your blue cabinets. We'll talk about it later translates into we'll agree to disagree. Thanks for another fun video. Have a wonderful day tomorrow. God bless.
I’m such an Anglophile, sometimes I wish my ancestors had stayed home in Britain 🇬🇧 where they belonged 😉. At least my people came to Jamestown..(Williamsburg, etc.) and not to New England 🏴 with the Puritans. No offense if someone else’s did. But, I can’t imagine being as dour as that!?!
Absolutely fascinating everything from buildings, driveway and parking lots. Luke I understand pot holes, I live in Michigan and our roads a nightmare. I just hit a pot hole on the highway on my way home from the lake house tonight. Here in Michigan we just got14 inches of snow ❄️ and there’s 11 inches of ice on the lake 🎣. Just in case you miss the Mid-West winters Julie lol. 🇺🇸
Having watched the last show yesterday, where your other channel got 100,000 CZcams subscribers, I am very pleased, and I enjoy that channel. But, Mapperton Live has a special place in my heart. I love hearing about all you are doing to preserve and renovate your home, seeing the gardens and other parts of the property, but especially I am delighted to about rewilding, and your plans for it. Imagine that a beaver program is expected to improve the flooding situation in the village down the hill!!! I love seeing Luke more in these programs!! And your interactions. I’m so sorry that I can’t help this channel reach the 100,000 mark, because I have been a subscriber for a year or so. I may never be able to visit, but your channel helps me feel closer to it. Thanks!!
I'm American married to a Briton too. We're renovating a victorian home in the cotswolds. Our home isn't listed as such but just living in the cotswold district there are many restrictions and regulations.
I love your channel keep doing what u do with all the negativity online today it is great that I always come from watching your show feeling happy and optimistic. Thank you.

I enjoy that Julie has kept her American accent and has embraced the British lifestyle. It's beautiful 😍 ❤ ♥
It’s not fully American, I think it’s shifted in the time she’s lived in Britain and she’s adopted some British word choices.
Not only do I love the historic content, but Julie and Luke are the new Lucy and Ricky 😂🤣! Great job guys!
Esplain...
@@ozrob76 😂
I agree, and more like the classy, aristocratic version of Lucy and Ricky.
@@pia2021 😂 true!
Who are Lucy and Ricky...?
I’d enjoy hearing the story/history of the Aga.
Me too!
Me three!!
Me four!

YOU TWO ARE SOOOOOO CUTE AND I LOVE THE WAY YOU ARE TOGETHER !!!! IT WORKS !
Luke is very gentle, Julie a bit rushed and anxious to get on with it. It would be nice if she could just let him finish.
I once literally burst into tears at a home show when I rounded a corner ro find a cobalt blue AGA. I hope I live long enough to have one someday!
I love how you two are with each other. You remind me of a younger version of my parents. Constantly teasing each other with so much love and laughter.
I'm so proud of you Jules and Luke!❤️ Bless your hearts, and your channel makes me so happy, I'm so happy for you.. the place looks amazing, you guys are just really doing a wonderful job there!
Mapperton is so fortunately to have you both as its stewards.

Loved the summary of your “project.” It seems you both are enjoying the process and we’re glad to be a part!

Your banter and body language show how much you two really love each other as well as your love for Mapperton.
Love that historic buildings are living organisms that must adapt to changing times and needs.
The blue paint on the cabinetry is fabulous! That is my dream color!
Thanks for the smiles you always provide! Loved hearing about the "Mess Ups at Mapperton"!
Glad you guys saved it, Luke was very lucky marrying Julie who cares so much about history and took on such a big task of saving an English estate. Wonderful couple.

We need an entire tortoise story episode, Luke! I really like the swapped talking, I can’t keep up when you both talk. Lol
It is a landmark property.
It's about preserve and restore.
For 20 years I
Worked at a Hotel which had a gorgeous ancient
Ballroom.
The intricate mosaic tile floors were carpeted over.
The walls could not be touched. Not even to install wiring.
Julie is so jubilant and elated making the little Italian house tailored to her own vision.
The smallest item,she flits like a hummingbird to locate at the antique market.
Merci! You two are adorable together...

Beautiful home and charming couple. You've accomplished so much in a short amount of time. Luke you look just like your father! I'm sure you never heard that before. 😆
Hello from Canada 🇨🇦 I started watching you guys and I enjoy it very much 🥰
I often wonder what happens to the families of younger sons in the Gentry - particularly from many years ago. I suppose they could eventually be our teachers, trades people and so on?
There were various routes - often the army or clergy. It depends on the family.
It seems like they’re always heading in the same direction even though they’re talking over each other. 3:08 “Let’s MoveOn“ & “we’re digressing a bit“
Excellent recap of upgrades!!! Incredible!!! Your living many peoples dream, talking same time and all! Never mind the hard work, redo's and buckets of 💷 😆
I just love watching the two of you together
You are both so perfect together, love the way you work together🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰
I LOVED THIS! I love "behind the scenes" information in general, and this one was a kicker! Loved hearing the both of you talk about all the ups and downs (and ugh...the downs were really downers, you poor things!) about your lovely home. More please! :-D
You two are adorable & fearless!!!!!
Thank you Luke and Julie. I enjoyed this video and I learned so much, such as lurgy. A new word not even recognized on my auto spellcheck! The history and the behind the scenes workings of theses old estates is fascinating. I am so glad that I discovered your channels many months ago. 👏👏
It looks lovely. I'm sure it was difficult to live through as I've renovated my home to a certain extent and really love the results. You have a right to be proud of all the thoughtful work you have put into the renovations. Enjoy.
Love every episode with Raymond. What a treasure to have on the estate
Luke cracks me up! These videos are so funny when you do them together. 😂 A bucket list to-do of mine is to visit Mapperton (right up there with Highclere Castle) and hopefully run into Luke & Julie AND Luke's parents!!
Glad its warm and you figured out the dodgy water issue. 🤣 Love your back and forth. Lol
The kitchen cabinets are amazing! Greetings from South Africa
This is so cool. I love to hear renovation stories and the foibles involved. Please tell us more stuff like this!
Cheering for you and yours! I used to live in a historical house. You are brave with a vision of flexibility and good humour. BEST!
You’re hilarious, both of you! More please! It’s such fun watching and learning from you. Love from sunny and warm Sydney xx
You are just adorable I have a great time watching the two off you interacting
You have quite the undertaking! You're doing a fabulous job! I enjoy listening to both of you! You always make me laugh! I have cold blood too, Julie!!! 😆 Then, what did I do? I married a Canadian where it's frigid cold and snowy all winter in Calgary!!! 🥶 I would love an Aga! I sometimes turn our kitchen stove on and just stand beside it!! 😆 We usually head South for the Winters, however. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures! Hugs!
Stay as you both are. Natural and never mind overlapping as it’s not annoying at all coming from you two lol… Used to have those dryer bars above my bathtub in my Milan’s apartment. Bigger and longer and I miss it!
Great content folks as usual and well thought out and planned restoration of the historical estate. On the word Lurgi (lurgy, plural lurgies). Meaning....a fictitious, highly infectious disease; often used in the phrase "the dreaded lurgi", sometimes as a reference to flu-like symptoms. Lurgi is a valid scrabble word.
Why so many views from the pool cleaning? Cleaning incredibly dirty things that are transformed (made right) , is very satisfying to watch..... and get HUGE # of views. Look at : mowing lawns, cleaning rugs and even de-barnacling ( not a word) sea turtles........HUGE # of views! All the best!
Oh, I love the idea of exhibition space for art events. What a wonderful venue for an exhibition! Please do talk about it sooner than later.
Wow, that is an incredible amount to achieve in such a short time. I’m excited to keep watching in the years to come & maybe one day I can visit England & tour the gardens there (as well as all of the other beautiful estates featured on Julie’s channel).
Wow, Luke and Julie have done a lot to improve at Mapperton !!
This was wonderful, to see all the changes and improvements. I also love episodes with Lord and Lady Sandwich, they are both so entertaining!
Would LOVE see your wedding photo's it must have been fabulous!
So fascinating. Home renovations in a middle class American home are annoying & costly. Can’t imagine how challenging it is for a huge manor home. That drying bar in the kitchen is genius. Never seen that anywhere before or in colonial American homes I’ve visited. Julie.. you need to buy Cuddle Duds underclothes to keep you warm. I use them in winter and they’re great. Not too bulky. Cold winters here in Pennsylvania and the office I worked in was freezing all winter. Helped tremendously.
Love watching the two of you together! What a lot of work you've done already and the future projects sound interesting as well. I'm very glad I don't live in an historic house (even though they're beautiful) because it sounds like it's a never ending (expensive) job! All the best from Missouri.
in my dream kitchen that big ole sink would take center stage. as well as that beautiful china hutch.
Beautiful picture of both of you!
You two are an amazing couple! I enjoy watching your interaction; wonderfully done!
LOVE the 20-minute format, and the content (of course). 👍👍👍
What a true labor of love!
I love your show and look forward to your uploads. Can’t wait to holiday in England again and make mapperton part of our itinerary
Such a labor of love this must have been. A very tasteful and classic update.
I would listen to Luke reading names out of the phone book. The BBC should offer him a position.
I am new to your channel/channels. Well done to both of you for the amazing upgrades you have initiated in Luke’s ancestral home. 🇨🇦
Love this historical redoing of Maperton you should more of this episodes so we could see the before and after in more detail.thank for charing.
I really loved hearing every detail of your stories about the multiple renovations. What an undertaking! Congrats to you both.
lol--digressing a bit is what you do best. I have often admired your blue cabinets. We'll talk about it later translates into we'll agree to disagree. Thanks for another fun video. Have a wonderful day tomorrow. God bless.
Wonderful to see that your parents were willing to let control go to the next generation. Good for them and good for the estate.
Your so lucky to be where our long ago ancestors left for a new life
I’m such an Anglophile, sometimes I wish my ancestors had stayed home in Britain 🇬🇧 where they belonged 😉.
At least my people came to Jamestown..(Williamsburg, etc.) and not to New England 🏴 with the Puritans. No offense if someone else’s did. But, I can’t imagine being as dour as that!?!
Love you all 💕
I love that Luke has finally joined Julie in these episodes.Both of you together are just beautiful!
Very fun to watch you two interact!
Absolutely fascinating everything from buildings, driveway and parking lots. Luke I understand pot holes, I live in Michigan and our roads a nightmare. I just hit a pot hole on the highway on my way home from the lake house tonight. Here in Michigan we just got14 inches of snow ❄️ and there’s 11 inches of ice on the lake 🎣. Just in case you miss the Mid-West winters Julie lol. 🇺🇸
Having watched the last show yesterday, where your other channel got 100,000 CZcams subscribers, I am very pleased, and I enjoy that channel. But, Mapperton Live has a special place in my heart. I love hearing about all you are doing to preserve and renovate your home, seeing the gardens and other parts of the property, but especially I am delighted to about rewilding, and your plans for it. Imagine that a beaver program is expected to improve the flooding situation in the village down the hill!!! I love seeing Luke more in these programs!! And your interactions. I’m so sorry that I can’t help this channel reach the 100,000 mark, because I have been a subscriber for a year or so. I may never be able to visit, but your channel helps me feel closer to it. Thanks!!
They will hit 100k by the end of the month. They are definitely on track to do it
I'm American married to a Briton too. We're renovating a victorian home in the cotswolds. Our home isn't listed as such but just living in the cotswold district there are many restrictions and regulations.
I love your channel keep doing what u do with all the negativity online today it is great that I always come from watching your show feeling happy and optimistic. Thank you.
Loved this, as always, seeing the 2 of you together!
