- Longleat is an English stately home and the seat of the Marquesses of Bath. It is adjacent to the village of Horningsham and near the towns of Warminster in Wiltshire and Frome in Somerset. It is noted for its Elizabethan country house, maze, landscaped parkland and safari park. The house is set in over 1,000 acres (400 ha) of parkland landscaped by Capability Brown, with 4,000 acres (1,600 ha) of let farmland and 4,000 acres (1,600 ha) of woodland, which includes a Center Parcs holiday village.[1] It was the first stately home to open to the public, and also claims the first safari park outside Africa.[2][3]
The house was built by Sir John Thynne, and designed mainly by Robert Smythson, after the original priory was destroyed by fire in 1567. It took 12 years to complete and is widely regarded as one of the finest examples of Elizabethan architecture in Britain. Longleat is occupied by Alexander Thynn, 7th Marquess of Bath, a direct descendant of the builder; however, the peer passed the management of the business to his son Viscount Weymouth early in 2010
Please people in Britain appreciate these beautiful houses I can watch all day on all the Manor and Palaces you've got undiscribaly beautiful what skilled men there was in those days.
In the twentieth century, hundreds of them were actually bulldozed! Fortunately we still have plenty left, but even some of those are standing disused and in disrepair. We have houses that are the envy of the world, and we let them fall to bits.
Magnificent! A perfect match of atmosphere and music. A great balance of outside and inside, detail and general view, architecture and gardening. You've captured the mix of Longleat's antiquity and 19th century opulence, intimacy and grandeur. I saved this to enjoy again.
I’m very grateful to you for such a comment. Thank you.....I went back to Longleat in 2019 but the current owner no longer allows pictures to be taken within the house...I was hoping to capture more of the indoors...
@@MrHappySnap Then we're all lucky you got what you did, when you did. Thanks
Wow beautiful old family history, here really eccentric ❤history and stately houses 🏘
It’s very impressive as you come down the drive to the house and it appears on your right, with the hills in the background.
Stunningly beautiful. The ceilings are magnificent.
I've been to Longleat..........Pretty!
Amazing selection of background music.
Some of the modern mansions today with the dull box wood ceilings and borders could take a hint from this video! The detail work in the ceilings is amazing!
Brenda Williams You cannot compare with old architecture.
Very impressed by the ceilings . Exquisite ,the house seems cared for to a very high standard not allways the case in many of these stately homes . Finances and excellant stewardship are required for that.
Indeed
Longleat is one of several high profile estates, which have been very much 'open for business' for decades. The family is particularly noted for the amount of media they do, far more than other prominent families.
I would love to live there. What an exquisite palace.
Longleat House. Simply beautiful-all of it. Maintained to a high standard.
Very beautiful house enjoy watching this video very much thank you take care
ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS BEAUTIFUL PLACE 💫🎀 THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING US 💫🎀 LOOK SO INCREDIBLE BUILDING BEAUTIFUL 💫🎀
Beautiful imposing house
Fabulous!! 😀👏🏽
Indeed beautiful. Remember that these houses came at great human suffering much as the 1/10th of 1 percent are doing to a large portion of the world today.
It was built by the architect who built Hardwick Hall - Robert Smythson. One can quite easily see similarities between the two.
This is really beautiful.
It would have been even better if there had been a commentary telling us what we were looking at
Still always blows my mind that the were family homes at one time
It still is.
@@eckligt Yes, but now open to the public, as musems also.
just amazing...
Beautiful.
Absolutely STUNNING!
The front, with it's huge windows, reminds me of an old high school that you'd see in New England.
That's why it's called New England
@ I was gonna type the same...hahaha
I simply am blown away by the beauty and elegance of this exquisite place. Oh how I would love to tour it. Wonderfully done video.
Thank you, it's a great place to visit.
I would prefer to own it rather than tour it

Beautifully done video of a great house!
Awesome 👍
Wow what a breathtaking location! Really amazing, these recordings were really successful! Greetings from Germany and stay healthy!you have a New subscriber 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you
Somewhat disappointed that this did not show a more detailed view of the library ceiling. In each of the square frames of the ceiling are different scenes of the Bible done in Wedgewood relief. I visited Longleat in 1982 and this pictorial unfortunately does not do it justice.
Wow
You have a new subscriber... 🥰
Ooo after seeing the bollywood movie mohabbtein then I came here what a location
Very Nice,..
WORLDAASS NICE
Thank God i can only be in one place at a time. Very nice indeed but im ok in my rabbit hutch. Maybe im easily satisfied....🤔by the way are there any lifts installed.. i feel worn out just looking
Hi enjoyed your video :)
Needs narration with history and dates.
Apparently lord bath likes game of thrones 😂
Mohabbatein Movie Gurkul shooting location. ❤❤❤ My favourite country England 🏴
Am I the only one that saw the "ghost" in the video. She is in front of the door on the balcony that occurs at 1:40 in the video? Post if you see it too.
It's something they do there a hologram of sorts
ghosts are for children!
1:35 Is that lady in the centre painted or airbrushed onto those door panels? Looks like a ghostly image.
It's A Hologram That They Projected While Inside The House
First use of many windows for more light then any palce of its time
I wud give all of your right arms to own this place!
Splendide demeure du plus excentrique des aristocrates anglais !
Who washes those windows,? Ps. I didn't see any loos aka bathrooms in the video. Did they have to go out in the fields? Historical question: I loved the small building off the garden, but was the main building so big just to show off or did they have hundreds of relatives living there? Pps. Great video but I would have liked to have seen portraits of the people who actually lived in the House.
and it's owned by a mere marquess. I bet one or two dukes look enviously on.
Historical Update: 7th Marquis Dead of Covid 2020. I've been researching the family after seeing this great video and the new 8th Marquis Ceawlin Thynn, same age as Meghan Markle, didn't attend the funeral.
Well, considering the parents boycotted the sons wedding...
@@rosemariedelph3324 that is so interesting. But it wasn't as if he was marrying Meghan Markle.
@@rosemariedelph3324 they boycotted the wedding because they were not happy about the son marrying a woman of caste because it would spoil the bloodline of the family and fyi Anna Gael the former Marquiss of Baths last official wife has just passed away

How the other half live,,,, its years since I have been there,
Not other half live, but how the one percent live.
@@kevinchambers4848 .00000001%
@@basstrammel1322 yes, I have to agree.
Is the claim that it was the first stately home open to the public true? Corsham Court has been open to the public since the 1780s.
To have a zoo
I would love to have seen more of the rooms in this gorgeous home. -but thanks for sharing. (How many rooms are in this house?? How many kitchens? How many bathrooms? Is there a vegetable garden on the nearby premises?)
There are some rooms you are not allowed to take pictures in. All information will be found on the web regarding amount of rooms and gardens.
+prettycountrygirl2 Most of these houses did not have bathrooms.
+Tim Royal No bathroom! Wow.
I thought the same- I didnt care about close ups so much as walking through rooms.
@@MrHappySnap you can't take any pictures or video anywhere at All in the house. I've been round it twice in three years. Breathtakingly beautiful.
I can see how Lynnewood Hall was designed from this.
Is that a ghost, at 1:39? On the balcony, between the 2 grand paintings?
heinzbruno1 it's a hologram they have there
Oh, thank HEAVENS! I thought it was a really tacky painting of some ghost reputed to have appeared there. In our region, the fad, for making cemeteries "relevant", is for reenactors to "play" the ghosts of the people in the tombs. It's tacky beyond belief.
Is that the Lady in white at 1:42?
For the K.I.N.G. !!!
Yep, it's square alright.
Good video. Have they rid the home of the pornographic art painted on the walls by the late 7th marquess?
gurukul😁
WOOOOOOOOOOW 🤗💫🏛

Frank Mcwilliams Sorry, what are you saying

Pharoahs Gal as bad as byron?
Stately pile.
😴🙄
shame these homes dont have attach bathrooms ... for toilet person have to go long away from bedroom evn on another floor .... My home is much better than this aesthetically beautiful yet less comfortable home ... beauty is not everything ... utility, maintainence cost also important
Idiot
Absolutely too much of everything, Ugh.... psychotic mindset.....it could be beautiful, but there is no break or rest for the eyes, it's all chaotic
i don't even like grey poupon.
Then why did you watch it, moron?
m. b. : 😂😂😂😂
Tacky by today's standards.
Mitchell Miranda Your Comment Is In Keeping With Today’s Standers However. Worthless
Tacky? A bit like you then! You wouldn't know class if it punched you in the face
As a Brit myself...I agree quite tacky
What standard today? They don't build like that anymore ! 😳
