I think I can speak for the other viewers when I say it is us who have been blessed by your TH-cam channel. Stellar family and content. Happy Birthday to Euan and Merry Christmas to all.
I’d also like to thank you for such a beautiful channel. So expertly edited with unbelievable hard work, thought and skill making for great content. So many try to get the balance, but you just get it right and I’m delighted you’ve been rewarded by so many subscribers. Here’s to a healthy, happy 2025, smashing the grant application and creating the gorgeous home that the whole family (and animals) deserve. My absolute favourite channel on TH-cam!!
Happy birthday to Euan ❤ Congratulations to Sam on passing his fire service course 🎉🎉 Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas and to greater successes in 2025. Much love as always ❤
As 92 old I tell you your achieving what I would love to have been able to do, your a real blessing all of you. May you continue to be blessed and highly flavoured in all you achieve. I look forward to your videos every week to catch up in your success. Your inspirations and results are a true wonder in the results you get. Just continue as your doing as we wait for the final day you move into your new home. God bless you and abundantly 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏🤩🥰🤣🤪🖖😄🇺🇸
Sam, it's so refreshing to see a joiner/carpenter see someone else's work and actually use their idea. I think it's great that you guys and the girls are so helpful to each other. I can't wait to see both of your properties 'finished'
Bec and Sam, I'd like to thank you both for taking time out of your busy schedule to go and help Louise and Emily with their midget home build - you guys are amazing! Oh, you know that new round entrance you have for the garden now? I know without a doubt I'd trip multiple times a day at the entrance with that lip of the metal off the ground - Miss Grace here (lol). Anyway, a very wonderful and safe Christmas to each one of you. ⛄
You two should be very proud of yourself. You have accomplished so much in the past year, and you both are still standing. Please have a safe and blessed holiday!
Sam you are such a great husband, doing all you can to make Bec’s visions come true. Your home and grounds are going to be beautiful, you are a keeper ❤
Sam, it's so refreshing to see someone admit that they've forgotten something instead of just trying to edit it out. Becca your vegetable garden is going to be amazing. It's an inspiration for me to do something like that in my yard. Looking forward to next week's video.
I did toy with editing it out but thought no, let's keep it real - mistakes are part of the whole process. Many made already and most likely more to come, but it's all ok if you catch them in time to be rectified. Let's hope that's always the case! 😉🤞🍀
Becky and Sam-you are so sweet and deserving of the love and support that you have gotten from this community! Just a few subscribers away from 100k!! This may be one of the fastest climbs of a YT family! Well done and enjoy your time to yourself Becky. Take a full day off to binge a favorite show. Presents will be there-beautiful job on the garden!
Thanks Kelly. It's crazy to see how many people watch and support us. We appreciate all the kind support so much. I can't wait to see how things look.ahaun this summer. Every year, it looks better.
Constantly repeating myself but you truly are the most hardworking couple. You’ve learned so much and no matter what’s thrown at you, you get back up and soldier on. Phenomenal job.
Hi to you all. Well, the family had done a incredible job in just one year. I take my hat off to You & Sam in building the home you have dream of, it is going to be a delight when it is finished. You & Sam have worked in harmony most of the time, and your pointing of the cottage was a marvel. I had a chuckall to my selve when Sam was doing the blogs, the cockal kept crowing. The junior adult have muck in as well. The donkeys have settled in well and very content. Have a marvellous, happy Christmas & New Year. All the best Alan.
So love seeing this cottage and land restored. You all work very hard .Lovely to see the animals Loved and Cared for as well. My Dear Irish mother wad born in a thatch cottage in Glenfarne County Letrim and I use to help my grandfather save the hey when we went in Summer Holidays .Letrim is a Beautiful County.

Having just helped my 66 y/o brother pour concrete foundations for a double garage, I literally feel your pain today! Thank you for your refreshing and honest look at your struggle in rural Ireland. I am always pleased by the content you produce but especially the beautiful way it is presented and edited. The segments are truly lovely. Best wishes for a safe, healthy, joyous holiday season and a warm and productive 2025.
Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 to you Becca and Sam Happy Birthday young man you’re almost there buddy! ❤Love to you all❤ Thanks Becca for my lovely relaxed sweatshirt and cap! You did a wonderful job Bec designing the logo and picking out the style for the jumper and I just LUV IT - so does the cat! 😂 It’s cold and nasty here in Star City Indiana and I find myself looking for refuge in heartwarming videos from TH-cam - we often don’t thank TH-cam and yeah I complain a lot about their platform yet it’s them that brought us together and that’s something grand indeed! Peace and Blessings to all wherever you are as we await our Lord and Savior on His Birthday! From my heart to yours …. Love and Light ✨🕊️💚☘️💚🕊️✨
Congratulations to Sam on achieving his goal to join the fire service (because restoring a ruin is not quite enough pressure :P ) Happy Birthday to Euan. The garden is really starting to take shape now and will look amazing once the archway is complete for the moon door, it is all taking shape now and getting very exciting. Wishing you all a very happy Christmas x
I just finished binge watching about 15 episodes and you guys are doing a wonderful job. I’m very fascinated by stone house because I don’t see them hardly in the USA. I look forward to following your progress.
Happy Birthday, Euan! Thank you for sharing your journey with all of us so faithfully every week. Amazing how little bits add up to something of substance.
Tis the season..Joy to the world..and to you Becca and Sam for your whole family and friends... May God and Jesus Christ continue to bless you with Their guiding hands... You bring so much inspirations and loveliness with your channel...Becca your opening and closing shots are certainly card photo worthy..perhaps there's a future project there to add to your merchandise...Sam your loyalty and love for your family has brought a mountain of labor to your door but oh the rewards you and your family will reap...I know your children will cherish all they have experienced and the gift of a home that will shelter them many years into the future... The New Year is rapidly approaching and so too is the finish-line for your build...I'm certain everyone who follows will be here to see your new lives unfold and will remain as invested as they are now... God bless you all and a special blessing to the ones who have offered their physical, educational, monetary and emotional support throughout this past year and a half...there truly are angels who walk among us... With all due respect and affection..Merry Christmas...
Well done family. You have achieved so very much in a year. It's so good for you to look back and see how far you have come in a single year. All the best to you all for Christmas and also for the year ahead. Try to remember to keep things at a realistic pace, and not to overwhelm yourselves with the work ahead. I realize you have deadlines for grants etc., but spread the work out enough to have time to breathe in between... Loved seeing you appear on Camper Vibe, was so surprised. So great to see people helping one another out that way. Many, many Blessings, Beautiful Family.
You have both worked so hard this past 12 months you deserve the very best Christmas and good weather into the New Year to continue with your work. Spend some good family time over Christmas . xx
And those blue eyes, Sam! You get hunkier every video! Bec, the garden is looking neat and proper now! Take good care, Sam & Bec and have a wonderful, safe and peaceful holiday! Blessings.
Thank you for sharing your lives it is a gift to me as an 85 yr old who is recovering from knee surgery and having a pacemaker installed. I look forward to checking in with your progress and enjoying your peaceful plot on the planet. Bless you all year long. Hugs Deanna in California.
Happy Birthday, Euan! And Merry, Merry Christmas to you all! Y'all are an inspiration to so many people across the world with your hard work and dedication to family and preserving the past. Much love to you!
Thank you Bec for researching who built and lived in your house, some weeks back, I found it so interesting. In this video, when you sat talking in the van, behind your head, when the sun came out, your house looked so beautiful. It is looking great. Many weeks back, I struggled to understand the builder's accents, when you guys were putting up tiles -LOL but it has been great viewing. I had no idea how affectionate donkeys are, and how cute they are. I am loving the animals and songs, and Benji the dog, little cutie. Your veggie patch will be so helpful towards you and your family's health. We have a neglected our veggie patch and fruit trees because we have to share them with possums and birds, (many loud cockatoos) these days. The birds seem prettier to watch than worry about the fruit and vegetables. We leave out seeds and food for the possums and planted more fruit trees to ease the problem. One day a koala just walked across the yard, we have an acre, and climbed our huge gum tree, we were surprised. We also have kookaburras (birds) that eat our mice and the odd snake. I hope you, Sam, Isabella and Euan have a merry Christmas and peaceful new year.
Happiest holidays to you hard working, inspiring people. It is a joy to watch your progress. By the way, I love watching Nell. She is so busy and trying to be of use. One excellent dog. Best of luck in the new year to you wonderful people!
Wishing the whole family a very Merry Christmas, filled with joy, love and laughter. I feel blessed to have come across your channel and watched you create your new home. You will be an inspiration for many who may think of doing something similar. Euan, have a very Happy Birthday; I hope all your wishes come true. From Carol in Melbourne Australia. xxxx
You always do a beautiful job at the opening scene to the videos with the animals and the scenery (even when it’s a bit bleak with the weather). Love those two beautiful donkeys and the way the sheepdog hangs out with them pretending he is herding them 😂
Ok I’ve got to say it… I was cutting fabric and just listening. Looked up and caught a close up of Sam with the steel blue eyes and wood dust in the hair and thought for a second I was watching a Hallmark Christmas movie! 😂 Good to see y’all on Camper Vibe this week. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
BECKY your doing a mighty job inside and outside love your journey please get your bricks round the range. Don't live to regret. The fire is the heart of the cottage. You certainly deserve this treat ❤❤❤❤
Happy Birthday Euan! The beginning of your 13th year! Great video Bec, you work so hard yet we only really see how hard you work when Sam leaves you! Have a very happy Christmas - you deserve a rest (even though you probably won't give yourself enough time off!)
Sam, Bec and family, including animals, I can hardly tell you how much you have helped me and enriched my life this year. Thank you!!! Solstice today, more light coming on... may all your wishes come true! Blessings as well to my fellow youtube viewers, as we join our energies and well wishes for this wonderful family!😊🩵💙💚
Ahh, Susan, thank you. That's lovely to hear. I'm so glad it's helped you in some small way. You guys have also helped us, as I said on the video. We appreciate the kind messages and comments so much. ♥️

So many try to get the balance, but you just get it right and I’m delighted you’ve been rewarded by so many subscribers. Here’s to a healthy, happy 2025, smashing the grant application and creating the gorgeous home that the whole family (and animals) deserve. My absolute favourite channel on TH-cam!!

Maud, thank you for those kind words as always. I'm so excited to see what 2025 brings and, of course, share the journey with you all on here. ♥️
Sam, it's so refreshing to see a joiner/carpenter see someone else's work and actually use their idea. I think it's great that you guys and the girls are so helpful to each other. I can't wait to see both of your properties 'finished'
Thanks. It solved an issue I was pondering over, and Lou is a great joiner. Good to have someone to bounce things off. 👍
Bec and Sam, I'd like to thank you both for taking time out of your busy schedule to go and help Louise and Emily with their midget home build - you guys are amazing! Oh, you know that new round entrance you have for the garden now? I know without a doubt I'd trip multiple times a day at the entrance with that lip of the metal off the ground - Miss Grace here (lol). Anyway, a very wonderful and safe Christmas to each one of you. ⛄
I nearly spat my brew out then! 🤣 "midgit home build" That lip is better now. I wedged done thin bits of stone just under it. It's now gone. 👍♥️
Loved seeing you helping Louise and Emily!
Yes, it was great to see you giving a hand to Lou and Emily. They too are doing a great job at their cottage.
The veggie garden is going to be fabulous! Merry Christmas to you and your family 😊
The lip is sunk into the ground and covered in concrete 😊
Who thinks Bec should have her own channel about the animals?
Me ❤
I think it would be fun to have a channel with their animals but I am quite sure Bec has no extra time on her hands to do that.
Shame@@debrahardman6088
I second!!!❤
You two should be very proud of yourself. You have accomplished so much in the past year, and you both are still standing. Please have a safe and blessed holiday!
Thanks so much. It's been such an amazing year. Honestly, I wasn't sure we would get the roof on, so that's a huge achievement.🎉
May, you guys have a blessed, Christmas 🎄🎁❤
Sam you are such a great husband, doing all you can to make Bec’s visions come true. Your home and grounds are going to be beautiful, you are a keeper ❤
Thank you so much!
Sam, it's so refreshing to see someone admit that they've forgotten something instead of just trying to edit it out. Becca your vegetable garden is going to be amazing. It's an inspiration for me to do something like that in my yard. Looking forward to next week's video.

Wishing you both and your family for a wonderful Christmas and New year. Keep on trucking guys. Pleasure to watch your channel. Chris Thailand.
You have made that Donkey SO happy! Great progress all round with the house and garden! ❤ XXX
Good morning. I really love following your progress on your homestead. Keep up the good work and Merry Christmas to you all.
"Hoop" entrance = clever idea. Your cleverness in turning idea into reality is top notch. And, yes, header improvement is good.
I just finished binge watching about 15 episodes and you guys are doing a wonderful job. I’m very fascinated by stone house because I don’t see them hardly in the USA. I look forward to following your progress.
Glad you enjoyed them! Thank you.
Well done Sam and bec . The epitome of hard working TH-camrs 👏🏴
You two are doing an amazing job of rescuing and reinventing a property that was desperately in need of what you had to give.
A happy Christmas to you all , it’s well earned after your hard working year .
God Bless from Zimbabwe
Many blessings from North Texas Merry Christmas ❤
What a 12 months! It's fantastic. The garden will look amazing when it's all finished. Merry Christmas to you all and a Happy New Year ! xxx

You bring so much inspirations and loveliness with your channel...Becca your opening and closing shots are certainly card photo worthy..perhaps there's a future project there to add to your merchandise...Sam your loyalty and love for your family has brought a mountain of labor to your door but oh the rewards you and your family will reap...I know your children will cherish all they have experienced and the gift of a home that will shelter them many years into the future...
The New Year is rapidly approaching and so too is the finish-line for your build...I'm certain everyone who follows will be here to see your new lives unfold and will remain as invested as they are now...
God bless you all and a special blessing to the ones who have offered their physical, educational, monetary and emotional support throughout this past year and a half...there truly are angels who walk among us...
With all due respect and affection..Merry Christmas...
Thank you that's so kind.
Well done family. You have achieved so very much in a year. It's so good for you to look back and see how far you have come in a single year. All the best to you all for Christmas and also for the year ahead. Try to remember to keep things at a realistic pace, and not to overwhelm yourselves with the work ahead. I realize you have deadlines for grants etc., but spread the work out enough to have time to breathe in between... Loved seeing you appear on Camper Vibe, was so surprised. So great to see people helping one another out that way. Many, many Blessings, Beautiful Family.
Also Merry Christmas to all at the Irish Homestead and thank you for the enjoyable youtube videos. It is always very peaceful. Thank you.
You have both worked so hard this past 12 months you deserve the very best Christmas and good weather into the New Year to continue with your work. Spend some good family time over Christmas . xx
And those blue eyes, Sam!
You get hunkier every video!
Bec, the garden is looking neat and proper now!
Take good care, Sam & Bec and have a wonderful, safe and peaceful holiday!
Blessings.
Love the birds at their feeders😊 Sam looks excited building stud walls, and the garden is coming along....its gonna be a great year
Thanks. I'm so excited for 2025! ♥️
Thank you for sharing your lives it is a gift to me as an 85 yr old who is recovering from knee surgery and having a pacemaker installed. I look forward to checking in with your progress and enjoying your peaceful plot on the planet. Bless you all year long. Hugs Deanna in California.
Happy Birthday, Euan! And Merry, Merry Christmas to you all! Y'all are an inspiration to so many people across the world with your hard work and dedication to family and preserving the past. Much love to you!
Thank you Bec for researching who built and lived in your house, some weeks back, I found it so interesting. In this video, when you sat talking in the van, behind your head, when the sun came out, your house looked so beautiful. It is looking great. Many weeks back, I struggled to understand the builder's accents, when you guys were putting up tiles -LOL but it has been great viewing. I had no idea how affectionate donkeys are, and how cute they are. I am loving the animals and songs, and Benji the dog, little cutie. Your veggie patch will be so helpful towards you and your family's health. We have a neglected our veggie patch and fruit trees because we have to share them with possums and birds, (many loud cockatoos) these days. The birds seem prettier to watch than worry about the fruit and vegetables. We leave out seeds and food for the possums and planted more fruit trees to ease the problem. One day a koala just walked across the yard, we have an acre, and climbed our huge gum tree, we were surprised. We also have kookaburras (birds) that eat our mice and the odd snake. I hope you, Sam, Isabella and Euan have a merry Christmas and peaceful new year.
Happiest holidays to you hard working, inspiring people. It is a joy to watch your progress. By the way, I love watching Nell. She is so busy and trying to be of use. One excellent dog. Best of luck in the new year to you wonderful people!
Thanks!
Thank you so much. Thats so kind of you. ♥️
Wishing you all a merry Christmas and a happy New Year, try and find time to relax for a few days.
You guys are just so inspirational and I am just loving watching your progress ❤️ Keep on keeping on, it will be so worth it ❤❤❤❤😘😘
Thank you for taking us on the journey with you! All the best for Christmas and the New Year!🎅🏻💖💖❤️❤️🎄
The round entrance to your gardens will look so lovely when your roses are growing up and over. The beds are looking great, as are the pathways.
Wishing the whole family a very Merry Christmas, filled with joy, love and laughter. I feel blessed to have come across your channel and watched you create your new home. You will be an inspiration for many who may think of doing something similar. Euan, have a very Happy Birthday; I hope all your wishes come true. From Carol in Melbourne Australia. xxxx
You always do a beautiful job at the opening scene to the videos with the animals and the scenery (even when it’s a bit bleak with the weather). Love those two beautiful donkeys and the way the sheepdog hangs out with them pretending he is herding them 😂
Ok I’ve got to say it… I was cutting fabric and just listening. Looked up and caught a close up of Sam with the steel blue eyes and wood dust in the hair and thought for a second I was watching a Hallmark Christmas movie! 😂 Good to see y’all on Camper Vibe this week. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
BECKY your doing a mighty job inside and outside love your journey please get your bricks round the range. Don't live to regret. The fire is the heart of the cottage. You certainly deserve this treat ❤❤❤❤
Happy Birthday Euan! The beginning of your 13th year!
Great video Bec, you work so hard yet we only really see how hard you work when Sam leaves you!
Have a very happy Christmas - you deserve a rest (even though you probably won't give yourself enough time off!)
Sam, Bec and family, including animals, I can hardly tell you how much you have helped me and enriched my life this year. Thank you!!! Solstice today, more light coming on... may all your wishes come true! Blessings as well to my fellow youtube viewers, as we join our energies and well wishes for this wonderful family!😊🩵💙💚
Ahh, Susan, thank you. That's lovely to hear. I'm so glad it's helped you in some small way. You guys have also helped us, as I said on the video. We appreciate the kind messages and comments so much. ♥️
Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas🎄, dear Sam, Becca, Euan and Isabella.
