- This time Julie, Viscountess Hinchingbrooke visits Deene Park in Northamptonshire, the ancestral home of the Brudenell family. Deene Park opened its doors to the public for the first time in the 1950s. Now Charlotte and Robert Brudenell open a selection of rooms to the public on certain days of the year and host weddings in the grounds. Julie ventures behind the scenes to glimpse how Deene Park is still very much a cherished family home.

Charlotte comes across as a warm, genuine and highly knowledgeable person. A truly hospitable host.
Oh dear. You need some Tony Robinson or Niel Oliver in your life.
Truly down to earth women who love there families history and are very knowledgeable ❤ ♥ I realy enjoyed this,thank you
I have been watching all your YT channels.I love them all.I live In middle Tennessee.I am so fascinated by old homes and castles.I truly enjoy all these stories❤️
@@fayemoore2218 I prefer the ancient topics, but there’s something for everyone!
She was a wealth of knowledge.😊
Charlotte and Robert are the warmest, most charming host I’ve ever seen on any historical homes post. She’s so authentic and beautiful ❤️
Charlotte is a delightful hostess and Julie’s sparkling personality make these videos not only informative but also entertaining!
What a handsome property and such lovely hosts. I truly enjoyed this episode.
Can we all agree that, that little dog is the most calm, adorable, and so happy 😊
Siiiii...justo ahora salio en el video¡¡
Ohh they have a handsome collection of paintings! 😍
Programs like this is why I love TH-cam ❤️ 😍
Loved the video! Charlotte and Robert were wonderful hosts. The gardens are amazing. Beautiful, beautiful home and property. Thank you Julie!
My Dad’s dream was to take a tour of manor homes. He loved watching British shows partly just to see the homes and decor. I recently discovered we are lineal descendants of William the Conqueror, and the monarchs down to King Edward III, and then we’re related to every monarch from Henry VII down to King Charles.
Sadly, my Dad passed away unexpectedly last year & never got to see all the manor houses. He did make it to the UK 4 times and saw a great deal of it. So he was luckier than most Americans.
Blessings to your Dad & you and yours-- I too would like to visit manor homes.
Of course, unless your a Native American, your all our literal cousins, a lot of you come from Spain Ireland (that's why your all obsessed with being Irish, cause a lot of you are) and Europe but most come from Henry the 8th and King Charlemagne. So Americans really are just Europeans. The only divide we should be seeing is the massive ocean in between us. 😊
@@Emberchariot as a matter of fact, I’m also said to be Blackfeet Indian. But yes, I’m all those other things too, and agree with your point.
Charlotte and Robert are so warm and just completely down to earth. They remind me of two loving grandparents.
What a beautiful mansion, elegant and comfortable! And surrounded by beautiful gardens too!! The owners must be very proud of owning such an amazing property. Thank you for showing it to us, I enjoyed the video immensely.
What a wonderful story! Enjoyed it so much to see and hear the stories around this wonderful place. It is a dream!
May this estate stay alive for generations to come!
This is so beautiful and such lovely down to earth people. Stunning home and that little dog so round and cute!
I like old white linen tablecloths or big table mats, they protect the table from scratches (fork, knives), wet rings from the glasses o hot plates. I think that a nice table setting is essential to a lovely lunch, dinner or breakfast, or just a simple tea/coffee moment. It gives pleasure to the eye and contributes to the general ambiance.
Absolutely wonderful, thank you so much. What a glorious place and the history ! Oh, my. To be able to say Elizabeth the 1st stayed here snd her grandfather Henry V11 - just oh my. Marvellous. Thank you so very much 🙏🙏🙏🙏👵🇦🇺
We love you, man. Take care of yourself and your dogs. Do what you need to do and we'll see you soon!!!
My favorite house/estate tour so far, absolutely stunning and with so many future projects to enhance the allure of the property....well done
Oh Julie, Deene Park is absolutely magical. I have to pay a visit next time I am in Britain! And visit you and your hubby at Mapperton as well!
Thank you for sharing your visit to fascinating and exquisitely beautiful Deene Park. The Brudenell’s are so warm and gracious in offering a glimpse into the amazing history and treasures of their family. I very much appreciate the great depth in which you’ve presented this stunning house, its gardens, grounds and initiatives. I wish them, and you, the very best in your extremely vital work to preserve British heritage for the future.
p.s. I believe you’re from Naperville originally? Happy Thanksgiving from a Hinsdale lady! 😊💕
Charlotte is giving me keeping up appearances and I love it. She is so charming and knows so much of history of her family and estate and decor taste is very pleasing. I wish I was there for the lovely breakfast
And her next candle light supper. Love from Canada ❤️
It’s absolutely wonderful to see these old estates and homes being kept up and being refurbished and being used for useful purposes in the stage and holding onto the history in the architecture that is England that is the United Kingdom and I think it’s brilliant and I hope it continues. As an archaeologist, this type of restoration and and recreation of our past helps bring about an understanding of where we come from and where we should be looking to in the future. I know a lot of people don’t understand, that they believe money like this is being wasted, that it should go to society and it should go to current housing projects, and absolutely those things should take place as well, but not at the expense of losing history. Brilliant job and I thank you very much Julie for presenting this and showing the depth of these homes and these projects.
Such a beautiful manor, inside and out. And may I say, an adorable puppy.
Cutest little puppy he owns the manor❤❤❤
THIS is what I call “reality television!” ❤❤❤❤ I love this homage to historic preservation and the format used to spread the historic content. No one to be forgotten. Thank you for such great content!
Sending love to you and yours from Orlando Florida
Wow thank you so much for this showing! I just love history on these things that you show Julie, Charlotte was a breath of fresh energy and knowledge and very personable and beautiful In herself and how she loved what she was doing for the estate. I love your enthusiasm as well your a wonderful lady showing these wonderful old estates in England where my family came from as well years and years ago. I am a yankee as well here in the USA . So keep on doing great work. I’m old but I still love to work with my hands and would love to help with someone in any of the crafts! Thank you and God Bless you and your family as well. Mr. Joseph P. Cotton Jr.
If it’s got Julie in it I’ll watch it! She’s so engaging and clever. As is Charlotte!
Julie does such a beautiful job on all her videos!! I just absolutely love a Lady Charlotte , she is so knowledgeable and lovely ! Her grand mansion is amazing!💕😊
Charlotte is lovely !!!
Such a beautifully decorated and well kept mansion. 👌🏻
That great hall !! 😮
Thank you so much for a wonderful visit and for making it possible to all those of us who no longer travel to learn the history of one more fabulous property. The passion, love and care of the family, dedicated caretaker for the future generations.
A very interesting episode. Thank you.
What a wonderful lady
I watched this video twice, just for "Minta" (sp?) That dog is wonderful. "Just let me sploot in the main hall, Mummy. I can see this is going to take a while!" I could have bet that she was on the floor next to Daddy at the breakfast table, because I saw him reach down! What a most fortunate puppy! She could really have a lucrative career giving tours of her own home! :)
And what a beautiful home and couple! Such down to earth, normal, lovely people, with a true love of history. And I love the style of the home as well: respectful to all the people of all the eras who inhabited this place.
Why couldn't we see the "secret tower" in the garden? ;)
So glad I found you thanks to the TH-cam algorithm! Love your personal story and your presenting skills! You bring an intimacy that only an American born English aristocrat can! Loved the show featuring the couple who bought back their family home, a really warm and delightful episode! Keep doing what you do and I’ll catch up! Cheers, Michael Albuquerque NM USA
Julie, I've been binge watching your videos. lovely buldings and amazing stories. Thank you
These are such great documentaries! Love the one form and so much information. Julie is a wonderful presenter.
Oh i especially love Charlotte's beautiful Pink garden 🌹 💐
Your videos about the Historic Houses are so well done and wonderful! I have watched this one on Dean Hal about 3 times now and each time I hear or see something different. Charlotte Brudenell one of the caretakers of Deene Park seems so warm and inviting - she speaks fast though and my American ears have trouble understanding. She and her husband Robert are very personable and they have done and are doing a superb job of restoring and maintaining their home. Love this video and the people who appear with you!
And of course! MINTA is so adorable 🥰
I especially love this episode.. And love how you are hands on with tasks and not stuffy or pretentious.. from an American who loves everything British to another American living in Britain 🇺🇸🇬🇧
A fantastic tour, great history. What a joy for you.
WOW some more interesting history - Fitzroy - did not know what it meant! Thank you again, for another wonderful video .
charlotte is so knowledgeable about the history of her home amazing how she can remember it all!! what a beautiful home and grounds just gorgeous!
she is so nice i would love to just sit and listen to her all day!
@@charmainejfritz1
Charlotte is just so historically knowledgeable about her home 🏡 Dean Park is just lovely and I've enjoyed watching this video of yours Julie for I think the third time over the past few months 😊 thank you again for sharing these grand homes castles and Manor homes with me and the world ❤
Absolutely delightful. The history and all the family connections are so interesting.
How special this tour was. Thank you
Fascinating. I love these programs
Once again, another spectacular video. Thank you. You do a great job so please continue.
This was a fascinating video, delightful 🤩
It would be so exciting waking up there every morning
lol love your videos this is such an eyeopener for all the ups and downs you’ve both been through but just remember what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger onwards and upwards can’t wait to watch what comes next xx Louise & Pete ireland
Love these videos! What a beautiful property.
Enjoyed this wonderful video! Thankyou!
Harikulade…
Thank you so much.
💝
AMAZING Dean Park. So very much work goes into keeping these beautiful places "alive". Chaotte and Robert are wonderful hosts and their pride in Dean Park is evident in every corner of the estate. Thank you Julie for a wonderful segment.
The pink garden was my favorite one.
Thanks.
Julie is so fun. 😊I always wonder why these multiple wild fields and gardens don’t scatter in herbs in the fields and in the gardens. A tea garden and cooking herbs 🤷♀️❤️
I've watched this video twice. One of my favourite country estates
This woman is living my dream life ❤
Oh, I thoroughly enjoyed this! I would love to visit someday, should I make my way from Texas to across the pond.
Wanted to say what a treasure Lady Charlotte Brudenell is! She’s absolutely as valuable as her wonderful house!
Really enjoying your presentations...
Very interesting and enjoyable
Wonderful video! Charlotte and Robert are wonderful hosts. What a beautiful estate. Sidenote-Julie what does your shirt mean?
Fascinating ideas!!
E muito legal esse vídeo nos mostra as histórias dos castelos.
I have only watched a little but I'd like a closer look at some of this history. I have been learning my genealogy and it would be nice to be able to see more and match it all together as I watch.
fantastic couple and gardens
What a beautiful lady loves human beings ❤️
These are so interesting.
Magnificent legacy!!!
Lucky you!🥰
As an American myself, I can say that Julie talks too much sometimes. She seems very nice but too eager to please and too eager to fill every quiet second with a comment. She could stand to relax a bit. I do love her appreciation of the subject at hand though and it’s wonderful that she is doing this series. Kudos to her for that.
Hello, I love your videos and as someone who was born in England and adores history, antiques and historic houses that they do not have or appreciate here it is extra special. This house has it all and so many origial pieces and characteristics. The owners seemed so warm inviting and lovely. I wanted to mention; this video has been up for a while I'm sure someone has mentioned this, I have not read through the comments. When you learning the pressed napkin folds the housekeeper mentioned adding ivy, holly and then you mentioned adding mistletoe- Mistletoe is actually a parasite in trees and is very poisonous to ingest. I would suggest you not add mistletoe to a napkin that would touch the mouth. Even after using for decor purposes wich it is hung out of reach in say a kissing ball, you should be careful and wash hands completely and not use it in decor or in spots where it could be ingested as it is very poisonous and can make people and pets really sick.
What a wonderful place. Thank you for sharing. What is the wax that they are using on the wooden panels
Reminds me of Highclere Castle
Wow!
Sweet lovely lady. Enjoyed her as much as the house
I only use public transport when I visit but I’m of seeing any buses that stop nearby
Very interesting
It blows my mind that these buildings are older then my country, over 7-800 yrars older
Yankees are so cute.
I wish the husband had talked more considering it is his family’s historic home. The wife was absolutely amazing, less talk from the host who married into a historic family continuing on and on about her “being family”
Cheers to these Brits for opening their homes that we may learn of history. Interesting to learn of the ongoing restoration of these beautiful places. It would be nice to have a series of American homes similar to this, without all the noisy background hype music and narrators.
Seems scaffolding high in the air would be more intimidating than friendly cows in the ground. But, we each have our own fear factors. Thank you for your videos.
They have so much land some of it could have been used for a beautiful garden open to the public also.
One of the most interisting Lords, when he was prisoners in the Tower he clasified all the
Crown documents that were in quite a mess doing an extraordinary work
Where is Julie’s sweater from? I would love to get one!
Julie in the Great Hall who was the lady in black hanging ?
My oldest son is Beau…where did you get that sweater?
The trouble with fancy folded Napkins at table is you fear opening them and become like my pal whom flung it open with such ease and it smashed the wine glasses that side of him
Julie, i adore you luv, however, with all due respect, please stop saying no. Bless your heart. When one is sharing such incredible facts only to hear no... well. I generally wouldn't make such a suggestion but felt it needed to be said. Much love.❤
My granny had a horsehair mattress and yes I slept beautifully in it. BUT it needs turning and takes at least 3 people to do it. It's hard work to keep comfortable. Spare a thought for the chamberlains who would have had their work cut out
How much is the heating bill, pounds per month? Is it natural gas?
A "mammoth wood chip boiler".
woderful
As an equestrian, it always makes me so sad when these wonderful old facilities like the menage here are "repurposed" for people to just buy moar stuff and drink tea. That menage is absolutely gorgeous and completely unique. Have your market somewhere else and give demonstrations of its proper use instead!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
OMG Lady Margaret Beaufort is my ancestor!!
I wonder if Julie's name will be added to the list of royalty that have visited the home?
Converting these houses to military hospitals is a good idea.
I live about 3 miles from here and have always wondered what the round building is
Now I know it's a riding school lol
If everyone builds wildings it will be like tourist sees house never comes back goes to another next time. We need to talk with Hal Baggot as he runs the help line for big house and gardens club
Gosh, you are travelling around my ancestors, the most daughter Lady Frances Brudenell one of talked about in Dublin when she was married to Lord Bellew, and she was scandalous because her lesbian
relation with Lady Margaret Allen she is my 7th great-grandmother

Princesse du peuple pour toujours, princesse Diana plus royale que tous les monarques. RIP notre ange 😇. Un jour, DIEU TOUT-PUISSANT révélera qui vous a tué.
