Hi!
I hope you read this.
Your channel is helping me turn my chaos into order; physically, mentally, and spiritually.
Seeing your calm and peaceful home and hearing your gentle voice reminds me to keep strong and move forward a bit each day. Sometimes each hour.
Best, MaryAnn
I’m so glad to hear that! X
I totally agree! How does he do that? LOL!
@@mesatrees8841 By not being bombastic like most youtubers. Even if they're not loud their BACKGROUND music is.
Nicolas inspires me too and I am super grateful🙏💜🙏💜🙏💜👼 wishing you all the beautiful things Mari Ann
Thank you Nicolas for this beautiful afternoon tea in Scotland. Watching the video
helps me to forget the world‘s turmoils for a while.
Greywalls is a stunning 🤩 and elegant Scottish Edwardian Country house gem 💎 with a lot to offer. The wonderful golf course would certainly entice my husband! & we would both be happy 😊
I'm from Cambodia, which is located in Asia. I really enjoy the virtual tour along with you. Super amazing! Love u, Nicolas 🥰🥰 hope one day i would be there and might invite u as my tour guide. 😃
I love this entire place.
Please bring us back each season.
Excellent idea, if our Nicolas is up to it. It would be marvelous to see this beautiful estate in both of Scotland's seasons: Winter and July - kidding, always kidding. Scotland offers a stark beauty every month of the year. Thank you, Nicolas.
For sure x
I can’t say it enough-a star is born.
@@Marcel_Audubon this is not sarcasm-
Hello Nicolas! I'm in hospital in SC. The tour, tea and you brightened my day. Thank you.
I am so happy I've found your channel Nicolas! You're like a breath of fresh air - love your videos so very much. I also appreciate the amount of work you must put into them. Thank you and greetings from Australia
Agree!!!
Thank you so much Wendy x
I’ve been Keto for over two years and yet I still watch all your cooking videos . You’re lovely and your voice is like a lullaby. Hope you have an amazing weekend. Happy Mother’s Day to all who mother someone lovingly.
I'm mostly keto, but subbing almond flour and erythratol (sp), I think we could make a fairly acceptable replacement.
I’m mostly keto now too x
Dear Nicolas. I wish to say Thankyou for the tour and for the afternoon tea. I also enjoyed the cooking session and thanks for using glass, instead of plastic in your cooking. Sending you appreciation from New Zealand and remember to look after yourself. Also thanks so much for your amazing monthly newsletter. When your monthly newsletter arrives to my inbox I feel so much joy and happiness. Thanks for been you. Do not let your subscribers ask you for more. xx
I get lost in your videos, Nicholas. They are so relaxing and beautiful and have proved you to be a man after my own heart.
Thank you dear Nicolas for a relaxing and beautiful insight to Greywalls. The cake you’ve made looks delicious! Have a lovely weekend x
@@mcdanielwright4244 Thank you. My husband who is Scottish and I live in England
It would be an honor and such an amazing experience to be able to have tea with Nicolas
I’m going to write that on my Bucket list ! 😉
What a beautiful place, one’s more you did it ! Amazing video 😍😍
Thank you so much for sharing that with us
Nicolas your one of a kind
Love from 🇨🇦
So kind! Thank you!
I say this often: How can something be so uplifting, and soothing at the same time?
So happy to hear you feel this way!
The teacup and saucer served at tea I believe is Villeroy & Boch's Petite Fleur. I have a set for 8, plus teapot, cream and sugar set, and serving bowls. I bought the pattern probably 40 years ago. Still love it.
You make me Smile! Thank You
Thank you Nicolas! What a delightful video. So glad you took us to visit that hotel and have tea. Wish we did this more in the US.And I think the cake turned out lovely. I haven't had lemon poppy seed cake in a long time.Until the next one!
You had me with "the fire is always lit"
Wish I was sitting in that living room.
Beautiful vlog. Thank you!
I'm watching this during my lunch break at work. Thank you for whisking me away for a brief moment of what would otherwise be a stress filled, mundane day. ❤
💕
Truly a pleasure x x
Curious what do u do ?
@@jat6547 I'm in Revenue Cycle Management.
I just finished my cup of tea when I realized this video was posted. If I had known sooner, I would have waited and had my tea with you! :)
Awww, Audrey, that is so sweet! ☕
How sweet! Next time!
I love watching your videos. You have such a calm, peaceful and positive energy. Not to mention, all the recipes I've gotten. Very classy....you and your channel.

If a CZcams channel was a fairytale. You’re beautiful! Your channel is beautiful!
Aww Thank you!
Happy Friday Nicolas. Another teatime treat with a visit to a gorgeous home in the Scotland Countryside. I am memzmerized by the beautiful English decor. Elegant but still warm and cozy. I enjoy every video and can't wait for more.
More and more..... videos but it will never end our excitement and love ❤️ for Nicolas .😍
Oh Nicolas, your life in Scotland is so idyllic, I'm thoroughly envious. Enjoyed having tea with you, but boy, I'd love to be there in person to live as you do.
Not every day is full of tea and gardens! But I am happy here. Thanks for your support x
How different life would be if we all lived on this frequency...
Yes it would..
Agreed 🌹
If you want it so badly Make it happen ❤
Dear, dear Nicholas, yes, Grey Walls would be heaven. Absolutely stunning. And to share tea with you in that sublime pavilion was the icing on the cake! Speaking of your cake..YUM. Adore your decor and tea videos in the gorgeous countryside. Blessings
Who knew baking cake could be so romantic. Love your channel. And your fluffy fur baby.
Hello 👋👋🤩🤩
How i love afternoom tea! it's the perfect excuse to enjoy so much beauty, thank you sir Nicolas Fairford, I'm fascinated.
Candied lemon peel would have been a better edible topping for your cake and they’re so easy to make. Lovely video.
@@mcdanielwright4244 LoL, Florida. ☺️
@@mcdanielwright4244 I’ve lived here most of my life. Today was gorgeous. I’m afraid it’s the last gorgeous day for months as it will just get hotter and more muggy, even in my NE town. I know California has great weather as I visited on vacation about 10 years ago. I was amazed at how much easier it was to breathe. Often it feels like trying to breathe under water here.
@@mcdanielwright4244 Just a homemaker and amateur baker.
@@mcdanielwright4244 I love meeting new people. Take care.
Absolutely stunning! Such a relaxing video. What a lovely Mother's Day gift this would be.. a day here, with high tea.🥰
Just popping in from Australia. I do so appreciate your calmness, elegance and style, particularly in the world today we could certainly do with more people like Nicolas Fairford. Thank you so much for all the effort you put into your videos.
Thanks so much - that is really sweet!
Totally agree 👍
Lovely tea time and recipe! I would use candied lemons as an edible garnish. Thanks for the nice vlog.
I just love the music in these videos - so relaxing
Thank you!
Thank you so much ! I appreciate you and this channel!
As a tea lover, I thoroughly enjoyed having tea with you, Nicolas. This was such a treat and the cake looks divine. Just found your channel and I love it. ❤❤❤
A dream! Thank you so much!
Magnifique !!!!!!!
You have the flawless gift of shifting our energies see beauty, simplicity and dreamy inspirations on these mini-vacations you take the viewers on. Your vision is very unique on CZcams. Thank you!
A beautiful tea in an absolutely serene location. Thank you Mr. Fairford.
Excellent vlog, Nicolas! They are getting better and better. You are becoming a master of editing vlogs, now I am very happy to see you have eliminated all the food making sounds and have dubbed in BEAUTIFUL music, which is just the right level, too!
So glad you liked it! Still a lot to learn on my part, but glad you stick with me as o improve x
@@NicolasFairford It is serious - even tedious - work to reply to comments like this - thank you!

FROM U.S.A.
You have such a soothing and calming voice, it transports me to be dreaming free in such beautiful gardens, to be smelling nature and be tasting delightful food. It's "Tea O'Clock" always! Best wishes.
Thank you!
Poppy seeds and lemon, simply delicious.
Your mellifluous voice and charming personality makes me smile and brings joy. I'm a competitive cook and former Tea Buyer in Plano, Texas. So happy I found your delightful channel. 💕
Thanks...💕Nicolas

Taking Us Along With You... So Beautiful 🍃
San Dimas California🦋..
Still With You🤲🙏
This channel is becoming my favourite place to visit. With Nicolas by your side life just lights up around you. Charming. Simply charming.
Peace and a sense of calmness.....that’s how I feel when I watch your videos.....thanks for sharing this gorgeous place and recipe 😋 with us ❤️😘
Thanks so much Nicholas! As usual, so delightful ❤️
So glad you enjoyed it!
Hello Sandra 👋
Omg I just can not tell you how I loved watching you eat all the different bits of food. You have such a feel for what we want to see. I wish I could have been there enjoying it too.
Hello Kim 😊
This is literally the art of peace and calmness 🖼 🫖✨💕 so serene 🕊🦆
An exquisite film Nicholas.... you enrich my life. Thank you 🙏🏼
The transition from being at the place and having tea, then going back home to make your own recipe has such warmth and coziness to it! Thanks for the wonderful video Nicolas! xx
You look gorgeous in black clothes , and as always very nice and calming videos !! Gettings from Canada!!!!🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁
I thought they looked navy blue; nonetheless, Nicolas looks gorgeous in any color clothing. And I must agree with my Canadian cousin on the video assessment: nice and calming indeed.
@@Mark723 😉
Are you gay?
@@jaili3521 yes
Beautifully filmed, Nicolas. I miss the UK, where my husband grew up, and this gorgeously paced video gives me a delightful sense of vicarious travel. I am really enjoying your channel and am glad to have seen it grow so quickly in recent months. Greetings again from Northern California. Have a lovely weekend, and thank you the care you put into your videos.
Thank you for another lovely house and garden tour, tea, and a cake recipe and baking lesson!
This makes for a lovely beginning of the weekend for me!💜🙏🏻
So glad to hear that!
Hi dear Nicholas, could you kindly start listing the music you always play with a time span? Maybe a link to iTunes and then you can get paid for referral? or something of that nature. You really have incredible taste when it comes to music as well. Thank you sooo much for the work you do! 🌺 Truly inspiring! ☺️
Hello Nicolas, thank you for stunningly beautiful videos week after week. It would be wonderful if you had your own television show.
All of my music is royalty-free music from epidemicsound.com - you pay a monthly subscription and can use any of the tracks without infringing copyright. Thanks for your kind words x
Dear Nicolas, brilliant filming and beautiful music, its hard to describe perfection and such a reprieve from the chaos of the world.You are a real gem... and thankyou x
I'm so glad you enjoy the videos! x
Hi Mo.
His voice is so soothing and lovely, I'm literally listening to this while walking in the street lol I just get transported, beautiful. Thanks for these videos and your effort.
I was having a bad day and then your video popped up and made everything better ❤️
I’m so glad to hear that it helped! Much love x x
Always a calm charm. Thank you kind sir!
Hey Nicholas! I always find your videos related to your house, kitchen, garden, crockery, paintings and collection of vases more interesting and eye-catching than whether it's an Edwardian country house or any fine hotel...you are simply amazing and no one can beat you...
Stay blessed.
I feel so much peace and tranquillity watching all your videos.
I’m so envious that I can’t experience such a place and personality as Nick’s!
Yay!! Another tea time video with Nicolas ❤️ I’d love to have tea with him in person. I just know it would be perfect.
oooh a tea meetup one day would be iconic 🥰 -- Maybe see you there Amanda 🤗😉
Thank you so much ! Maybe one day I will do a Tea-tour x x
As long as you ain't expecting romance... she's deffo a queen 👸
Your channel brings so much calm and serenity…. So peaceful. You should be contracted by BBC, PBS, or any major tv network for your on show or to air your channel. Love the way you narrate this content. I’m a big fan of your channel.
I am SO GRATEFUL to see chairs that are actually comfortable, colors like red and green, and no hint of the white/gray/black palette that almost all CZcams decorators are espousing as the only way to go to have a chic home. My living room is done in burgundy and moss colors along with neutrals and I think it's warm and inviting. I also love china and crystal and have a formal dining room. I am 65, not 85! Where did traditional go??!!
Your videos truly do make life more beautiful.
Just gorgeous! Really love that you show the softer side of Scotland, it gets unfairly portrayed as rough from movies and shows to other countries sometimes
You’re right, it does. Thank you! x
Yummy! I haven't had lemon poppy seed cake since I was little, and so cute with the lemon on top. You are a great cook.
Those lemon poppy-seed cakes look delightful! Thank you most kindly for your recipe. Right now, I fancy a cuppa and a biscuit or two. Wonderful, that.
You looked so happy and the place is absolutely stunning 🤩
Drawn by the architecture, Old world plush comfort and each room with unique features. The gardens stunning, a perfect visit and a great way to support reopening after the Covid crisis. The golf course view (tempting) being set in beautiful surroundings. Afternoon tea time with an excellent pastry chef at it’s helm looked superb a very nice touch to enjoy all the ambience--what a treat. Perfect ending with the white vase of flowers and a step-by-step of ingredients to bake a lemon poppyseed cake with a lemon wedge served with tea was wonderful.
So glad you enjoyed it! X
"Oh, Nicolas! Thank you for sharing your life with us! What a lovely place!"
Absolutely the most elegant 12 minutes of my week. Thank you Nicolas for sharing the beauty around you. Looking forward to seeing you again Wednesday.
So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
Thank you! Nicolas. It was a delight to watch this video. I love your table manners. My husband and I are TEA LOVERS and... maybe if one day you come to visit Georgia, USA, ... we would love to invite you to have tea with us. :) (It's a lovely thought...)
Nicolas, your content is the definition of self-care. Thank you so much!
Nicolas what an amazing person you are; gifted in beauty, elegance and gentleness. I am so delighted to have found your chanel. Every time I meet with you, I add a piece of your Scottish world to mine. I also love antiques, china, cooking, baking and gardening. My garden is full of rose scented geraniums, lily of the valley( pink and white), jasmins, French and English roses and other beauties that I tenderly care for them.
🌳🔆🪴~Incredibly Beautiful~🪴🔆🌳 ~~ I especially love all of the little reading and sitting nooks situated throughout the house!!
Just lovely🌻🌺💕
Thanks Nicolas nice pleasant surprise ,what a pity I had gone so often in London in the past and never in Scotland so nice this house and hotel !
You should visit Scotland in the future x
Fabulous house tour - and scrumptious afternoon tea - thank you for recipe I’ll definitely be baking

How wonderful you have dedicated yourself to enriching and broadening the lives of others. After touring the Edwardian country house, Greywalls, and its lovely gardens one can easily see why this elegant place is your favorite house in the world. With the charming tea pavilion it is very calming and comforting. Thank you for the recipe.
A friend introduced me to your videos 3 days ago and I’ve been watching them non stop ever since. Love your spirit and imagination Nicholas!
When I had a hectic day and I just need to relax I watch one of your videos. Perfect.
My Lemon Poppyseed Pound Cake has an Orange-Almond Poppyseed Glaze on it that made it my husband’s absolute favorite dessert.
I'm not a big fan of sweets but that sounds amazing
Sounds delicious
Dear Alice, if you'd like to share your recipe, I'd love to know it. Thank you so much!
Hi. Alice I second that. I would love it if you would share that recipe. Sounds scrumptious 😋
Hey Nick, great video! Thank you. I'm getting ready for my Johnnie Walker... greetings from the 🇺🇸States🇺🇲
This was so lovely...you're going places, my dear. Thank you for the tour. xoxo
So kind of you! Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing your lovely day at that gorgeous country house & the cake recipe. It's putting me in the baking mood 💜 Have a wonderful weekend hun !😸
Enjoyed the tour of this relaxing Edwardian home. Such a treat! Fellow lifestyle and tea lover CZcamsr here. Keep up the good work. Really enjoy your segments!
Hello Mary 🥰
Such a beautiful reprieve from the chaotic world. I appreciate your love for all beautiful things. There is such a love that one feels when we focus on the beauty and peace.
Hi Nicolas, what a beautiful Place, thank-you for showing us around. I love these kind of places, wishing you well.
Another wonderful video. And that lemon cake looks so delicious! Thank you, Nicolas, for showing us that life can be lived with beauty and grace.
Thanks so much for this comment!
Ahh,new video from our favourite friend 😍

Another great tea time ... so joyful and relaxing. Thank you Nicolas ❤
I have been manifesting peace.... gentleness... finding your channel makes me feel I'm in so much peace. New subbie here. Thank you Nicolas.
Omg I’m literally crying this is exactly what I’ve been craving for for the past year😭 I will definitely move to England (or Scotland) someday!!
And I love the whole Downton vibe including the BGM🤍
I don't know why, but I got very emotional watching this video as well. He is definitely vibrating on a more harmonious and reverent frequency than most of us.
Thank you so much ! So glad you enjoyed it!
I Love your video's Nicholas. Im from Maryland in the US. Im so glad Ive found your page. You have a very comforting voice. When I listen to you, im completely calm and relaxed . I have learned so much , Thank-you
