I love the light-colored interior of so many rooms at Elmore Court! Its so bright and airy and welcoming and spacious! It looks fresh and clean. It seems he took a lesson from Martha Stewart color combinations. Very nice! The light walls really let the contents of the rooms stand out and speak for themselves. What a wonderful change from the Country House Rescue days! I really have to say, Well done!
Thank you, Team Julie, for sharing this story. Years ago, I saw the current custodian as a struggling new heir. He has done a great job and thank you for the update. If you get a chance, I'd like to see how Lullingstone Castle and World Garden is doing. The next heir was also struggling to preserve the family pile. A likeable fellow with incredible vision, work ethic and passion for plant life.
Hi Julie,! A great video! I had another idea. In addition to the Mapperton/Devon Fiddler's Contest, I thot it might be fun to rent the Fairytale Cottage as a package deal with a wedding at Mapperton. It could be a Honeymoon Cottage! What do you think? I was also thinking that if you have a wide hillside for people to sit on, you might have a natural amphitheater where you could have classical music orchestras performing on summer evenings, or present Greek and Shakespearean plays? You'd need bathrooms, parking, a sound system up the hill, and a nearby tent for drinks and snacks/ or emergency service in case of accidents. And you would get a nicer crowd than you would have with a Woodstock Festival situation. And what about First Saturday concerts at Mapperton for wind or string quartets, Madrigal group from Oxford, etc. every month?
Really love your channel. Our family has been in the original family home for 200 years and 7 generations now and watching your show really helps give us ideas of how to keep it going.
So interesting and educational. I live in an area in New York where we cannot stop our town counsel from approving developers who are taking away our wetlands and encroaching on the wildlife. It makes me so mad!!! Thank you for sharing these videos.
My township in NJ is the same. It’s so sad and pisses me off soooo much! Plus the houses are typically plastic and poorly made. In our historical town, they allow brand new plastic siding houses & it takes away from the historical look of the town. If I had the money, I’d buy all the land and leave it wild!
I recognize it too. The custodian really took a tongue lashing from Ruth Watson. Looks like the guy really took stock of his bearings and is doing okay! Good for him!
Yes, I remembered that episode right off and so happy that maturity has blessed this fellow with such good business sense. Well done, and good work Ruth !! that tongue lashing worked......now, there is a gem grown out of it.
I first saw this house on country house rescue. What happened to all the fantastic antiques and the giant dining room table? It’s weird to see it so stripped back as a wedding venue. 😮 but I’m over joyed to know he is a success 🎉
Hi Julie, First I want to make" just be quit and be still" my mantra! I love how preserving the land and rewilding, (just like Julie and Luke are doing.) is so very important and to preserve Elmore court. What makes me so mad as an American, we seem not to care about climate change, not to care about preservation, if there is a buck to be made everything else be damned. I have read so much on the Cotswold's; everyone should be lucky to visit. This was such a great learning curve, thank you so much for introducing us to Anslem and all his good work. Love from N.Y.
Well done Julie with the 12 historic houses. I dont know why Ansem did not know who first built the house. I do love his idea of tree houses, they are luxurious but simple, elegant. Ansem is very passionate in all he does with Elmore Court.
Thanks Julie. Wonderful episode. If you go back there in a year or so to view the rewinding programme I’d love to see inside the cob/earth barn/reception room.
this makes me feel so much better about my own rewilding project in my urban NZ backyard lol - it's always been organic but every time I have to show it to people and say, I haven't been gardening it lately... But it's long been full of birds, butterflies, bees and every other creature that sees an opportunity, and the natives just self seed and that brings in the native birds. They all know where to find my house in the middle of town.
Absolutely fabulous! I cannot imagine how much work it takes to keep this exquisite historic home clean and dust free. Those tree houses are gorgeous and imaginative. Guest's are literally immersed in nature.
Such a fascinating presentation. Thank you. It is inspiring to see and hear about so many noble landowners in the UK pursuing sustainability of the land and their estates in so many innovative ways.
He “ came back “ to the estate , literally ( he’s lived there before in a previous lifetime ) The owner has showed great ingenuity eg tree houses , walkways 🌲
Such a beautiful estate home. Love the tree houses & rewilding project. What an incredible family tree. Thank you so much for this wonderful and educational vlog 😍😘
Oh Julie! This was so well done and very special look into how it all goes with rewilding and this particular Elmore Court. Thank you to Anselm! Bravo in this endeavor! Thank you for the beautiful background music, inspirational and uplifting as always! Just loved this! Thank you!
Hello, I hope you will be able to see and explore Traquair House in Scotland- it's so magical. I stayed the night there and it was fantastic. I also stayed in Thornbury Castle in England Tudor history was incredible . I hope you can tour one of these for your channel. Love what you are doing for people to see that may not be able to travel or maybe give them an idea to come to Britain to check out the wonderful history, I've been 3 times now. And next time I hope to come to Mapperton to see your beautiful estate and to hopefully see my name on the Alberta project plaque. 😀
Que maravilla 😮 las casitas entre los árboles 🌲 wow 🤩 Gracias por tus videos Saludos desde Jamul Ca . 🏰 interesante todos los videos de los Castillos 🏰
This was such an interesting video to watch, I will investigate the history a little more deeply. I love the vision Anselm Guise has for the estate and the moves he is creating to bring it to fruition.
Gorgeous! My family is wondering if I’m ok I’ve just been binging all these wonderful historic houses episodes lol I’m gonna make my way out there one of these days and make my dreams come true
I can’t even imagine what it would be like to own a “home” like this & all the historical artifacts and the long family tree! It must be amazing, I’m so jealous.😍 Great video! Very interesting and educational too!👏🏻
Fluctuating volume is hard to follow......can always hear Julie - but the gentleman is often hard to hear. He is very interesting and would like to have heard him clearly. Wonderful projects with the tree houses - and the re-wilding.
I'd like to suggest another market for the Elmore House tree houses: Tibetan Buddhists and Buddhists in general! We are always looking for quiet, removed places exactly like that where we can do three-month-long meditation retreats, or longer! If the tree houses have kitchens, great! The only problem is groceries. Could Elmore House offer grocery runs to retreatants? We need help with that, because we take vows of place and are not supposed to leave the retreat location. Contact the Tibetan groups in Britain and Scotland. If the cottages are affordable, they will be filled right away! If you have a large room, and sleeping, eating arrangements for a group, you could have meditation retreats for all traditions. Think about this. Its a crowd of good people.
I’m not really sure why you think it’s appropriate to comment on a woman’s appearance, especially in such a brash manner. I loved her lipstick color. Seems like this is a you problem you could keep to yourself next time. Try and remember she’s an actual person on the other side of the screen. Would you say that to her in person?
What a ridiculous thing to say. She can do whatever she wants with her appearance and no one with a brain in their head should ever think it’s necessary or appropriate to dictate how someone else should present themselves. We must stamp out this horrid, ignorant, casual yet deep seated sexism, and the idea that it’s ok to tell people how they must look.
Ah I’m playing at a wedding there on Friday!
I remember him in county house rescue !

The treehouses look amazing and I love the rewilding vision 🙂
I remember seeing him on Country House Rescue! So glad to see the house thriving.

Thanks to your channel Julie, Anselm's tree houses will be booked for years to come!!! Great find and thanks for sharing!!
I love how enthusiastic he is about his plans!

@@Carey86 same here. Houses are great big gray boxes, all look the same and not a single tree on the lots.
This is - by far - my favorite youtube channel. Greetings from Puerto Rico!
I recognize Elmore Court from Country House Rescue!
I recognize it too. The custodian really took a tongue lashing from Ruth Watson. Looks like the guy really took stock of his bearings and is doing okay! Good for him!
Yes, I remembered that episode right off and so happy that maturity has blessed this fellow with such good business sense. Well done, and good work Ruth !! that tongue lashing worked......now, there is a gem grown out of it.
In the US, the show Treehouse Masters has been building treehouses for clients everywhere. The owner has a number of treehouse for rental also.
Absolutely stunning.
The place looks amazing good for him and he seems so happy now
I must have seen him over at least 10 years in different programs trying to make the house pay for itself.
Me too!!! Historic House Rescue? With that bossy lady who would direct hapless land owners in making their homes pay. 😂
I think it was Country house rescue when he started a cooking school
I was hoping he made the cooking school a great one but I'm glad to see he still owns it
I first saw this house on country house rescue. What happened to all the fantastic antiques and the giant dining room table? It’s weird to see it so stripped back as a wedding venue. 😮 but I’m over joyed to know he is a success 🎉
My great great grandfather was Alonzo Anselm Ray- English ancestry. Just sharing.
So so beautiful

The house looks as though it was built in various eras and styles, therefore by multiple ancestors.
Thanks Julie. Wonderful episode. If you go back there in a year or so to view the rewinding programme I’d love to see inside the cob/earth barn/reception room.
What a different take; brilliant! That explains the tracks of water. Wow! I've been through the Sargaso Sea.
this makes me feel so much better about my own rewilding project in my urban NZ backyard lol - it's always been organic but every time I have to show it to people and say, I haven't been gardening it lately...

Amazing to see these houses and the history behind them
He’s come such a long way from Country House Rescue!
Wonderful show! I`m usually a lurker but must comment on this!
Such a beautiful estate home. Love the tree houses & rewilding project. What an incredible family tree. Thank you so much for this wonderful and educational vlog 😍😘

Will you be visiting Althorp House?
Thanks one of your top episodes!
Julie, fascinating material the circle of life and nature!
This was such an interesting video to watch, I will investigate the history a little more deeply. I love the vision Anselm Guise has for the estate and the moves he is creating to bring it to fruition.

@CC-ed7vc - You sound fun.
Very nice episode Julie. I haven’t watched you in a while and glad that I finally was notified of your post.
Brilliant conversation, really enjoyed this episode. Thank you!!
Love watching your presentations!
I wonder how the waste water is taken care of in a tree house? I wonder how you keep water from freezing in pipes?
Way cool tree houses.. great video. Thank you.
This once again was fantastic
I remember this house on Country House Rescue
There’s no future without weddings 🎉
Would love to stay at one of the tree houses!
111111111WILDING IS THE GREATEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love the tree houses!
Just wondering if you spend most of your time at Mapperton or in London?
The de Burgh family (the name on the grant) are still around as well.
Hi Julie, are you going to interview Hopwood Hall that's being restored by American Hopwood DePree?
Where did they get their Long Horn Cattle. Texas?
I keep hoping a butler will open one of these doors :-)
I wonder if there is eel on the menu.
Hi julie i also saw ansel on a previous show looks like he is doing well i think he also got married on that show no sight of the missus ?
Fluctuating volume is hard to follow......can always hear Julie - but the gentleman is often hard to hear. He is very interesting and would like to have heard him clearly. Wonderful projects with the tree houses - and the re-wilding.
Julie’s voice certainly can penetrate!
Closed captions are so helpful.

did he know your fear of cows. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Re wilding is important, though taking away our farming is questionable
How is the next generation going to afford inheritance tax?
Love the program; lose the bright red lipstick.
