Olaus died in 2013 aged 87. What a mighty age! He had a brother John and two sisters Phoebe & Lorna Audrey was his wife. Sadly there were court cases over ownership of the land he left behind.
Yes there is always a sadness with abandoned homes and tragic circumstances also have happened for a lot of these places to become abandoned. I mean who is paying the property taxes ? I knew here in United States the state will take the places for back taxes and they advertise them in the local paper Incase some relatives may know of the place to step up and pay the taxes. Same thing with the power left on at some of these places someone has to be paying the electric bill or it would get unhooked unless there may be family alive just to many bad memories to go back to them they just don't make any since to let such beautiful homes go to complete decay for no reason. If there is a relative alive descendent if they don't want them sell them and not let them go to ruins.
How heartbreaking to see this beautiful place not being lived in & loved. If it were my family home, I would have such a connection with it & to the family members who are gone. It shouldn't fill the daughter with sadness, but with joy to be there keeping her family's memory alive. It's in such a charming setting, like a storybook house.
This house is incredibly beautiful. I have it said that when the laughter leaves the house the house begins to die daily without the care. So sad to see it this way it has been waiting for its family to come back. Thank you for sharing this. You have a great day
Exactly right. When my grandaddy passed in 1981, the roof on his southern plantation house collapsed within a year or two. Had nothing to do with not having heat/cool as he never used air conditioning (ceilings were 20-25 feet high) and only heat in the kitchen and his bedroom. Always resented my mom and aunt gutting the place and selling the farm instead of moving in and letting us boys age another 7 years so we could decide if we wanted to continue the farming/cattle/timber tradition. Everything was in trust to us grandchildren because he knew mom and my aunt were foolish with money, somehow they managed to break the trust and liquidate everything at the lowest price they could get fast.
Blmonkey, I live with my landladyand that ding-bat always needs more money. I have never met a woman yet who could manage money. The juice is not worth the squeeze and take the red pill!
@@thebluelunarmonkey I feel so sorry your family didn’t have any foresight for you and your future family. He who sells their land, is as selling your soul. For the riches are those who have land and property.
This house should not be left empty its beautiful, i would move in today. What amazing views to wake up to in the morning, lovely and peaceful all on its own, love it Dave x
This is an incredible find. When you pulled open that closet and found the kilt, I seriously screamed, “WOW”. I got goose bumps. It’s such a lovely home. Too bad it’s being destroyed. My thoughts are what if the child saw this and it encouraged her to come back and redeem the house. It’s not too late.
How extraordinarily sad and tragic to see something once so cared for to fall into ruin without a backwards glance. It appears that the granddaughter stayed on for about 3 years after her brother died. What a huge undertaking it would have been to care for such a large house already falling into disrepair. Probably more out of necessity than desire, she left to spend her own end of days elsewhere. Things are just things. Love is forever.
Outside it is lovely with the sight and the sound of the sea. Bu the inside of that home is dark and depressing. The decor is similar to a lower middle class home. There is very little natural light. There is something oppressive and heavy about it. I'd get the heck outta there too.
@@lorraine9242 It is a very substantial house for a farm house and typical in the decoration of its time. The the rooms are large, and the windows are also a typical size, they did not build houses with large windows as they let in the cold and it would have been extremely cold in winter being that close to the water. The furniture is very old and would have been worth something these days if looked after. I would love to live there if the house was habitable. But it is far too big for one person to look after and maintain.
I think everyone has said exactly what I was thinking. I’m sure he had more than one kilt. I hope they buried him in one. Love how you respect the person, home and belongs. Humility is strength. You show that . Unfortunately too many think of themselves and steal personal belongings. Lots of mold. Beautiful furnishings. It is sad and lonely. The door thing was a surprise! Blessings!
Who the F was that saying "Help!" at 19:11 ??? As a person who has found countless examples of EVP in the audio of explorers of abandoned homes, I am impressed that you took a moment to give that door a second look when it closed on its own. Explorers with an open mind deserve much respect.
I cried watching this , I realized that material things are just for us to see , to accumulate , temporarily for us to own , we can’t bring them with you when you’ll die...most important thing now is to cherish what is now , stay healthy, enjoy with your family because life is so short ...nobody will takecare of all material things you treasured...
I love this explore!!! David love how respectful you are and how you honor the persons life! It’s a reminder that we can’t take anything with us when our time comes! Love you guys ! ❤️
WOW just wow!! I must admit I wasn't impressed with the downstairs but when you went up that beautiful staircase I was blown away! The furniture and paintings were amazing, I expected to see more older items but I guess that's probably what they had stored away upstairs. The size of this place was unreal, I did not expect it to be as big as it was. Imagine being a kid living here, there's so many places to play hide and seek 😊 Olaus was a very blessed man!! It's just a shame he passed away 6 days before his 88th birthday. Oh and I have to say that kitchen was very dreary and creepy, I did not like it. This place was amazing with such an amazing view to go with it! Looked like there wasn't another house for miles and miles around. Thank you for this adventure, Dave, it's just a shame Mark wasn't there to enjoy it with you. 💜💜
The family who lived in that house must have had a beautiful life. I would just love to be sitting on that garden seat, my husband with his Guinness (which he loves) and me with a g&t. I could literally look at that view from dawn to dusk....even if it was only a cup of tea I had in my hand. What a pity no one bought it who would love it and take care of it. 🥰😍
Thank you so much !!! This home is my favorite. There is so much warmth in this beautiful home. I am so grateful that you took time to look at those books. It's like a Library each room. 📚 If you notice. Room's seem to be less dust. The beds do not look dusty too. More likey Ghost people live there...the one shut the door. That room seem to be used by that one. Another wonderful find. Thank you so much sharing your dream to us all. And the one's who help too !!! 😊💛
Wow! I’m only 5mins in, but this is amazing. The scenery, the house.. I am amazed! The UK and EUR in general have such beautiful landscapes! I remember going to Ireland a few years back and was in constant 😮😮😮
A brilliant find in the highlands of Scotland, A mansion on the edge of a large lock,I found a similar house on a 3 month trek exploring Scotland highlands in 1971,An old vicarage left empty for decades? Stayed there 4 two weeks, Water left on, Used the working arga, And had a roaring fire going in a large open fireplace every night, Cryed my eyes out when I left, Never found a place with such peace and quiet since!!! Love Scotland 😀🇬🇧👍
I could ONLY imagine the life they spent in that beautiful place. No matter how beautiful it is there's always pain and despair in every family. Such a sad story...but that view 🪟 wow.
A splendid place!! What wonderful times generations had there right on the water!! I can’t believe that there’s no descendants to take over this magical place!! Great job ! ❤️ in Tennessee
Such a beautiful home and location. How incredibly sad to see it abandoned💔 maybe one day, someone will be able to buy it and fill it with life and love again x thanks for sharing such a great explore x
I thought it looked like a fan I'd seen before because it was broken but Ivory, it's one of those treasures you know. It's beautiful and makes perfect sense. Kind of like my furs.
It’s quite possible that the granddaughter suffered years of abuse in that house. It may or may not be the reason she couldn’t stay there. I was actually designing each room in my head as he was going round. I’d love it. If only???? 😒
Dave a great explore. Loved it. When you found the violin, there was a paper and there was the name of Yehudi Menuin, you said. Did you know he was a world famous violinplayer? Was it his violin or was the man friends with him? Would be nice to explore that. Go on with what you are doing. I love it and have missed you. Much love for you and Marky
In some places it still looks pristine. I do hope the daughter will see past her sorrow to the joy that it brought and the legacy that was created for Mr. Olaf's heirs. My ancestors are buried on family land that immigrated from Scotland in the 1700's. We are now in our 10th generation in the United States on my father's side.
What a super place. It looks like the family may have lived there for several generations. It looks as though they were that thoroughly settled there. Felt as though it was imbued with their essence through & through. It was not just a place to live, it was properly a family home.
I give anything in the world that families wouldn't walk away from old family homes and belongings 😢😢. I Love listening to you talk about these old houses and the way you care so much for them 😊❤
Wow, this is stunning and what a location. Can't understand why any relatives wouldn't have been able to make sure it was kept intact. Absolutely brilliant. Yet again, Thankyou so much for sharing. Blown away...🙏✌
Great job giving us a feel for the man who lived there and the lifestyle. Very respectful, too. I wish someone would buy it and save it before it's too late. Great video!
Such a Beautiful time capsule home with so many rooms I could definitely live there ; And with stunning views of the water ; And as always thank you for the respect you give when showing these houses Dave safe travels
What a beautiful location of the house priceless with this view. Enjoyed watching all the way through, a House full of history and memories. Seems like even the house might deteriorate, what stands is that he who lived in it was a respected person in the area and keeps remembered. Because when I die I would want to be remembered for who I was, not for how my house was or materials. Maybe on day this place finds a new owner or someone how rebuilds a house there …. in the quiet of the land… away from the business of life.
What a beautiful house that view is stunning! Was there a voice at 19:13? I can’t imagine never wanting to go in my parents home I lost my dad last year and love thinking of him sitting on the sofa or getting a beer from outside when I’m there so sad their children couldn’t face it, I love that the neighbours still look after the land shows what a nice family they were
I heared it too! I was over the other side of my kitchen with my head in the fridge and I heared "go" replayed it. Around about time you are looking in the draws Dave by the writing desk.
@@suziewilliams867 glad it wasn’t just me that heard it I had a look through the comments last night and no one said about I thought I must of been wrong
Oh good! Someone else heard it too! I also noticed a weird anomaly in the small blue double mirror on the dresser in the basement? The top mirror looked like it showed something odd moving. He said he had a weird creepy, unsettled feeling. Perhaps the parents never really left.
Maybe is someone made an offer to the daughter she would sell everything to a buyer. That house looks like it can still be saved. It's such a waste to lose all those beautiful items. Thanks for posting.
Beautiful, such a incredible home, abandoned by the living, but i wouldn't be surprised if their spirit is still at home, looks like there has been lot of love and laughter there , brilliant video, thanks for sharing 👍🙂❤
Wow, it's amazing! There are too many treasures to mention without creating an essay. It was emotional for me, seeing Mr. Olaus in his kilt as an elderly gentleman with his wife. Legs no longer straight and strong but proud. I am of confirmed Scottish descent not that it matters, our seniors are the jewels in our society. This is my favorite property. The living room I can imagine on a cold day, the colors painted exactly the color I would choose. All the books, lovely novels ready for reading. The beautiful furniture. The drawing room with the chaise lounge by the window with the view of the river, reading with the breeze flowing in or someone playing the violin put away so eloquently with the piano. Even as an adult I would spend hours outside exploring the outdoors and riverbanks or gardening. Yes I could imagine every nook of that home in its prime spent with my soul mate, chasing my children until I drew my last breath. I hope that it's location remains undiscovered and that the daughter will find strength to go in. As their belief in Christ, they are united with their Creator and each other, a joyful time for the weary. This was the legacy Mr. Olaus left to his heirs. Thank you for sharing a beautiful journey full of big and small treasures. Take care, stay safe and God bless everyone! xoxo 💖 Always, Kat (found Poppy) - maybe it did turn into an unintentional essay
I loved that old living room with the sofas covered by blankets, the fire place, the display shelves. All the personal items. It looked so full of character & cosy. Authentic to the individuals who lived in it.
Love that you took time to scan over some of the books, gives an insight into their personalities...like to see that with records found too...loved the art work and the kilt!
It’s sad that it’s just left maybe no family to leave it to . It amazes me how it just stays in time perfectly. Also glad no 1 has trashed it or stolen anything
Stunning! Thanks for always sharing and how sweetly respectful all of you are. I hope one day you all get to own and restore one of these beauties! Saving the UK’s architectural heritage!
That's the best place i have seen in a long time. This is a real time capsule. Loved the livingroom, so beautiful. And loved the old furniture and pictures. And yes the beautiful place this house is standing. It's just amazing. 😍😍
This is yet another beautiful place! Have you guys ever thought about contacting the owners and seeing if they’ll sell to you? Why let these go to waste like this! Peace☮️💕🧝🏼♀️✌🏻
Usually, the government takes over due to unaffordable tax properties. The sad, disappointing thing with this governments, they will just let the house, mansion, chateau go to ruins. They don't care at all! :(
This is my favourite explore. The views from outside are incredible. The house has been sold, so it will never again be seen like this. Before selling it was cleared, so everything you see is now pretty much gone. I have no idea who has now bought it, but hope that it once again becomes a family home.
Hi Dave what a beautiful home an where it is ,it’s such a shame no one can do it up an live in it ,you can imagine a family living their ,sad story .Thank you for taking us around with you much love Ann uk xx
Oh my goodness, what an amazing find, yet so sad to see this once beautiful home slip in to disrepair and take all its memories with it. Watching this just makes me realise why I am a Patreon for your channel 💙💙
This is a very beautiful family home, but so sad to see is like this , a picture in time and the memories, when you walked in to that room I found that very moving , I hope the owner is resting in place, it was a privilege to see , thank you , I think you are correct to respect the person home and belongs .
I can’t wrap my head around how a beautiful structure like this winds up abandoned, such a waste. And all the fantastic artifacts left behind...so so sad. This was a wonderful experience and Dave anyone who says you should not do this or whatever they say are just plain crazy! Your respectful and do these videos so people can see something they probably would otherwise never get the chance to. Like me! We have nothing like this architecture in the United States. You are back!! Love what you do!
Wow, wow, wow, what a beautiful house, lost count of the amount of bedrooms, so sad it’s not filled with love & laughter & making new memories, Only just found u & subscribed, so glad I did, love the respect u show towards other peoples belongings, look forward to watching more of ur videos!
40:42 Oh Dave! I was just thinking that little attic loft...the sitting stool in front of the little dresser...I was thinking that I would laugh if you saw that stool move...then you went out of the room and the door shut behind you! Oh, that was priceless! Really enjoyed this house, the location is something else.
This is just beautiful Dave. You 100% find the best locations. Thank you so much for sharing this one i really hope this is kept safe and never found so this can be kept in tack although Would make a Lovely family home. Stay safe hope to see you and Mark and Ash live again soon xx
This is an amazing house, sad to see it decaying and everything in it will be lost. I hope if anyone else does find this they leave it as you did, no graffiti, not taking anything.
Thank you for this video. I love old abandoned homes, I've never physically been inside one, and these videos give me the chance to explore them. I must say I felt a tinge of guilt and fascination at the same time as you explored from room to room. Kinda felt like I was invading the homeowners privacy. Do you ever hear from the family members after you post your videos. This kinda made me sad as well. I wonder will his children or grandchildren will ever empty these treasures from this home and cherish them inside of their home, to carry on the legacy. Who wouldn't love to have those beautiful portraits hanging in their home? Thank you for this video, it was such a beautiful thing, in so many ways.
You stated that this house dated from the 17th century. It’s hard to see indications of this, except the dark wood panelled walls. It looks like changes have been made. The rooms look scattered -in states of disarray; not burglarized but just stuff sitting all over with mixes of some old and some more modern things. I’d loved to have seen this house when it was first inhabited back when it was built in the 17th or 18th centuries. I loved the staircase. The mansion looks reall intriguing from the outside. Beautiful location. Thank you.
Hi Dave, great explore. What a lovely Scottish home in an amazing location. Just so sad that there are so many quality items in the house that should be saved. Some of the rooms looked as though someone had been keeping them tidy and clean, others in really bad shape. Woooah that door did close behind you....... nice to see Alec joining you again, love his explores as well. Take care and thanks
Absolutely smashed it! This is a stunning explore and well-video'd. Thanks for these great vids and keep exploring! What a beautiful property overlooking the sea. Hard to believe the relatives didn't take it over and move in after he passed. So sad.
Interesting one. There was one item you showed that could be worth millions. It should be in a museum. I wonder why so many antiques and personal belongings have been abandoned.
Thank you so much for putting the work in to speak about the history of the place. That is a big part of what makes your videos so special and unique. Another big part is your reverence and enthusiasm for these places. Thank you for not letting them go forgotten. God bless!
This is by far and away the most beautiful setting for any house you have explored! Stunning is not the word. Sad story behind it too. I’d kill to live here! Fab explore guys
Olaus died in 2013 aged 87. What a mighty age! He had a brother John and two sisters Phoebe & Lorna Audrey was his wife. Sadly there were court cases over ownership of the land he left behind.
Makes you realise that we are mere custodians and life is short
Amen.

It creeps me out

I would give my left arm for a home like this when it was in its prime, absolutely stunning home still as it stands. Gorgeous.

My thoughts are what if the child saw this and it encouraged her to come back and redeem the house. It’s not too late.
They used to keep two old pennies to lay on the corpses eyes , when they laid them out.
I’m literally in tears….so beautiful.
It's full of mold but there's things in it someone should save.
Love to see the families Christmas decorations . Nov scotia
Bro I like this house 🏘️ and I watch ur videos and god bless you brother
It’s great to see a home that no one has destroyed. I love the way you describe how the family would’ve been living. Love this!

Agree with about Mark, I do love to see just the pair of them together, they make such a good team exploring 👍
What a shame that something that beautiful is left to deteriorate like that
Especially when there are so many homeless.
Is there any Family that could save that place???? I mean OMG treasures GALORE!!!!! The house is a treasure!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
If only santa claus comin down to hand me over this house -- I'd turn it into a hotel 😁🥰

I say that after each vlog that this one’s my favorite and I see another stunning house!!!
You can see that house has grown slowly over hundreds of years, being added to in five or six stages.
I love how you tell the family’s story, thank you for your hard work to get the story. It gives it so much more meaning.
Heartbreaking...
Thanks Dave...
No words ....
Please someone in the family save ...
I'm watching the video and thinking what a great bed and breakfast this place would make for couples to get away for the weekends.
My thoughts exactly
Multicoloured rooms
Wow! I’m only 5mins in, but this is amazing. The scenery, the house.. I am amazed! The UK and EUR in general have such beautiful landscapes! I remember going to Ireland a few years back and was in constant 😮😮😮
A brilliant find in the highlands of Scotland, A mansion on the edge of a large lock,I found a similar house on a 3 month trek exploring Scotland highlands in 1971,An old vicarage left empty for decades? Stayed there 4 two weeks, Water left on, Used the working arga, And had a roaring fire going in a large open fireplace every night, Cryed my eyes out when I left, Never found a place with such peace and quiet since!!! Love Scotland 😀🇬🇧👍
Beautiful home. I really love how respectful you are with the personal belongings left behind and abandoned. Enjoy your explorations.

I love old houses. They have so much more character than the new ones.
@Jude Nance, even houses built in the 60s-@ the 1980s
What a gorgeous house so sad that the family left it like that I wonder who's paying a light bill
Sometimes if they are wealthy enough they will pay for electricity years in advance.
solar panels?
@@allieelectra23 Well I'm not wealthy but we pay our electric bill for a few months in advance.
Dave it’s a fan but the strings have rotted that kept it together.
When you picked it up you would have noticed how weighty it was it was carved Ivory
I thought it looked like a fan I'd seen before because it was broken but Ivory, it's one of those treasures you know. It's beautiful and makes perfect sense. Kind of like my furs.
worth between 10 two 20 thousand
Ppl are so dam cruel.
I really love Alec &Dave two of my three fav explorers Adam is up their with you.😀😀😀😀
Adam way above
It’s quite possible that the granddaughter suffered years of abuse in that house. It may or may not be the reason she couldn’t stay there.
I was actually designing each room in my head as he was going round. I’d love it. If only???? 😒
Dave a great explore. Loved it. When you found the violin, there was a paper and there was the name of Yehudi Menuin, you said. Did you know he was a world famous violinplayer?
Was it his violin or was the man friends with him? Would be nice to explore that.
Go on with what you are doing. I love it and have missed you. Much love for you and Marky
Love all that old china where the "deadly dog" lived. That stuff is great
What beautiful surroundings, Natural has definitely taken its toll. Let's unravel once was a Beautiful home. 👌🏡🤓🧐🌲🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳
In some places it still looks pristine. I do hope the daughter will see past her sorrow to the joy that it brought and the legacy that was created for Mr. Olaf's heirs.

I don't like any of these cellars!!!
That furniture needs to be auctioned! It’s a crime to let these antiques rot! Someone please contact the descendants and beg them to sell this house!
I give anything in the world that families wouldn't walk away from old family homes and belongings 😢😢. I Love listening to you talk about these old houses and the way you care so much for them 😊❤
I don't think I can add anything more to the video you have summed it up brilliantly I only hope vandals Don't find it.
Wow, this is stunning and what a location. Can't understand why any relatives wouldn't have been able to make sure it was kept intact. Absolutely brilliant. Yet again, Thankyou so much for sharing. Blown away...🙏✌
Beautiful entrance and staircase. Very sad to see it deteriorate. I would love this house. Thank you for showing this house to us.
Great job giving us a feel for the man who lived there and the lifestyle. Very respectful, too. I wish someone would buy it and save it before it's too late. Great video!
Such a Beautiful time capsule home with so many rooms I could definitely live there ; And with stunning views of the water ; And as always thank you for the respect you give when showing these houses Dave safe travels
What a beautiful location of the house priceless with this view. Enjoyed watching all the way through, a House full of history and memories. Seems like even the house might deteriorate, what stands is that he who lived in it was a respected person in the area and keeps remembered. Because when I die I would want to be remembered for who I was, not for how my house was or materials. Maybe on day this place finds a new owner or someone how rebuilds a house there …. in the quiet of the land… away from the business of life.
What a beautiful house that view is stunning! Was there a voice at 19:13? I can’t imagine never wanting to go in my parents home I lost my dad last year and love thinking of him sitting on the sofa or getting a beer from outside when I’m there so sad their children couldn’t face it, I love that the neighbours still look after the land shows what a nice family they were
I caught that too, just after seeing the photograph of someone in the chair.
I heared it too! I was over the other side of my kitchen with my head in the fridge and I heared "go" replayed it. Around about time you are looking in the draws Dave by the writing desk.
@@suziewilliams867 glad it wasn’t just me that heard it I had a look through the comments last night and no one said about I thought I must of been wrong
I heard it as well it said help
Oh good! Someone else heard it too! I also noticed a weird anomaly in the small blue double mirror on the dresser in the basement? The top mirror looked like it showed something odd moving.
He said he had a weird creepy, unsettled feeling. Perhaps the parents never really left.
Maybe is someone made an offer to the daughter she would sell everything to a buyer. That house looks like it can still be saved. It's such a waste to lose all those beautiful items. Thanks for posting.
Beautiful, such a incredible home, abandoned by the living, but i wouldn't be surprised if their spirit is still at home, looks like there has been lot of love and laughter there , brilliant video, thanks for sharing 👍🙂❤
Wow, it's amazing! There are too many treasures to mention without creating an essay. It was emotional for me, seeing Mr. Olaus in his kilt as an elderly gentleman with his wife. Legs no longer straight and strong but proud. I am of confirmed Scottish descent not that it matters, our seniors are the jewels in our society. This is my favorite property. The living room I can imagine on a cold day, the colors painted exactly the color I would choose. All the books, lovely novels ready for reading. The beautiful furniture. The drawing room with the chaise lounge by the window with the view of the river, reading with the breeze flowing in or someone playing the violin put away so eloquently with the piano. Even as an adult I would spend hours outside exploring the outdoors and riverbanks or gardening. Yes I could imagine every nook of that home in its prime spent with my soul mate, chasing my children until I drew my last breath. I hope that it's location remains undiscovered and that the daughter will find strength to go in. As their belief in Christ, they are united with their Creator and each other, a joyful time for the weary. This was the legacy Mr. Olaus left to his heirs. Thank you for sharing a beautiful journey full of big and small treasures. Take care, stay safe and God bless everyone! xoxo 💖 Always, Kat (found Poppy) - maybe it did turn into an unintentional essay
The owners enjoyed their house all these yrs........ And thats all that matters!
Video only just started and I'm thinking what a beautiful place. That's before you even get to the house.
I loved that old living room with the sofas covered by blankets, the fire place, the display shelves. All the personal items. It looked so full of character & cosy. Authentic to the individuals who lived in it.
Thankyou for sharing.
The location of this home is so incredibly beautiful! Thank you for sharing it with us!
The room with the piano is absolutely gorgeous no doubt this would have been their drawing room!
The chaise lounge by the window is my favorite. The view is also stunning there.
The best-abandoned homes I've ever seen, thank you for this slice of history left in time
It has so much personality in that wonderful home. Don't we wish! Thankyou for that one
Love that you took time to scan over some of the books, gives an insight into their personalities...like to see that with records found too...loved the art work and the kilt!
It’s sad that it’s just left maybe no family to leave it to . It amazes me how it just stays in time perfectly. Also glad no 1 has trashed it or stolen anything
What a gorgeous location! The views are amazing! So so sad this house is left to go like this😥 A fantastic find dave keep up your good work ❤ xx
Stunning! Thanks for always sharing and how sweetly respectful all of you are. I hope one day you all get to own and restore one of these beauties! Saving the UK’s architectural heritage!
That's the best place i have seen in a long time. This is a real time capsule. Loved the livingroom, so beautiful. And loved the old furniture and pictures. And yes the beautiful place this house is standing. It's just amazing. 😍😍
This is yet another beautiful place! Have you guys ever thought about contacting the owners and seeing if they’ll sell to you? Why let these go to waste like this! Peace☮️💕🧝🏼♀️✌🏻
Exactly. What happens when the daughter passes away? Deed goes to the state/county? Then after that it gets ransacked.
Usually, the government takes over due to unaffordable tax properties. The sad, disappointing thing with this governments, they will just let the house, mansion, chateau go to ruins. They don't care at all! :(
@@piper6541 that's sad.
@@piper6541 So sad .
@@GSXR1300X it passes to the government if there are no living relatives.
This is my favourite explore. The views from outside are incredible. The house has been sold, so it will never again be seen like this. Before selling it was cleared, so everything you see is now pretty much gone. I have no idea who has now bought it, but hope that it once again becomes a family home.
Once again Dave you never disappoint!
Hi Dave what a beautiful home an where it is ,it’s such a shame no one can do it up an live in it ,you can imagine a family living their ,sad story .Thank you for taking us around with you much love Ann uk xx
Oh my goodness, what an amazing find, yet so sad to see this once beautiful home slip in to disrepair and take all its memories with it. Watching this just makes me realise why I am a Patreon for your channel 💙💙
That’s an outstanding house.The views are out of this world 🌎 👍.The videos you do are a pleasure to watch.
The place seemed to go on forever..has to be one of my favourites..beautiful and the view's were to die for..Great find dave...loved it 👍😘
This is a very beautiful family home, but so sad to see is like this , a picture in time and the memories, when you walked in to that room I found that very moving , I hope the owner is resting in place, it was a privilege to see , thank you , I think you are correct to respect the person home and belongs .
What a beautiful place just a shame it is decaying. Wish the furniture could be saved as I love antique furniture. Thank you
I can’t wrap my head around how a beautiful structure like this winds up abandoned, such a waste. And all the fantastic artifacts left behind...so so sad. This was a wonderful experience and Dave anyone who says you should not do this or whatever they say are just plain crazy! Your respectful and do these videos so people can see something they probably would otherwise never get the chance to. Like me! We have nothing like this architecture in the United States. You are back!! Love what you do!
Wow, wow, wow, what a beautiful house, lost count of the amount of bedrooms, so sad it’s not filled with love & laughter & making new memories,
Only just found u & subscribed, so glad I did, love the respect u show towards other peoples belongings, look forward to watching more of ur videos!
40:42 Oh Dave! I was just thinking that little attic loft...the sitting stool in front of the little dresser...I was thinking that I would laugh if you saw that stool move...then you went out of the room and the door shut behind you! Oh, that was priceless! Really enjoyed this house, the location is something else.
I ABSOLUTLY LOVE THIS HOUSE AND LOCATION!! I hope 1 day someone is able to purchase that property and enjoy it🙏
This is just beautiful Dave. You 100% find the best locations. Thank you so much for sharing this one i really hope this is kept safe and never found so this can be kept in tack although Would make a Lovely family home.
Stay safe hope to see you and Mark and Ash live again soon xx
What an amazing property in and out. What a view to behold.
Omg I haven’t watched yet but that view from the drone!!! What a beautiful dream place to live! 😍
Oh thank god I'm so happy the locals kept a good eye on this beautiful property ❤
This is an amazing house, sad to see it decaying and everything in it will be lost. I hope if anyone else does find this they leave it as you did, no graffiti, not taking anything.
Thank you for this video. I love old abandoned homes, I've never physically been inside one, and these videos give me the chance to explore them. I must say I felt a tinge of guilt and fascination at the same time as you explored from room to room. Kinda felt like I was invading the homeowners privacy.
Do you ever hear from the family members after you post your videos. This kinda made me sad as well. I wonder will his children or grandchildren will ever empty these treasures from this home and cherish them inside of their home, to carry on the legacy. Who wouldn't love to have those beautiful portraits hanging in their home? Thank you for this video, it was such a beautiful thing, in so many ways.
What a beautiful house and those views are breathtaking .. Thankyou for sharing Dave 💕
An empty shell of what once was. Sad to see what happens when the laughter dies. A wonderful old house. Thanks for sharing.
The best explorer TH-camr I’ve ever come across. I really do appreciate your videos! So much respect for what you do ❤️
I love how you research, respect and just truly appreciate what you find. Thanks for sharing with the world.
This house is situated in a beautiful location,should upgrade it to a rental property instead of wasted away.
You stated that this house dated from the 17th century. It’s hard to see indications of this, except the dark wood panelled walls. It looks like changes have been made. The rooms look scattered -in states of disarray; not burglarized but just stuff sitting all over with mixes of some old and some more modern things. I’d loved to have seen this house when it was first inhabited back when it was built in the 17th or 18th centuries. I loved the staircase. The mansion looks reall intriguing from the outside. Beautiful location. Thank you.
Hi Dave, great explore. What a lovely Scottish home in an amazing location. Just so sad that there are so many quality items in the house that should be saved. Some of the rooms looked as though someone had been keeping them tidy and clean, others in really bad shape. Woooah that door did close behind you....... nice to see Alec joining you again, love his explores as well. Take care and thanks
I have watched this video several times now, and I always come back to watching it! There is something just so whimsical about the place, I ll
Absolutely smashed it! This is a stunning explore and well-video'd. Thanks for these great vids and keep exploring! What a beautiful property overlooking the sea. Hard to believe the relatives didn't take it over and move in after he passed. So sad.
Interesting one. There was one item you showed that could be worth millions. It should be in a museum. I wonder why so many antiques and personal belongings have been abandoned.
Amazing house. Wouldn't it be cool to be able to buy it with all the possessions there. I would have a lot of fun going through all of that!
so beautiful admire u for showing so much compassion and love to places watched u long time now apprecition is u ,much love n be safe JANET
The U.K. really is stunning in places. Hope to see you live tonight mate.. Stunning inside . I wonder if he was a Laird ?
Lovely farm house she left all the nice dishes it’s bigger then I thought. So many treasures👵🏻🥰 thank u Dave for this video I enjoyed
Wow thats up there with the best explore ive seen ,just brilliant thank u Dave 👍💗
Thank you so much for putting the work in to speak about the history of the place. That is a big part of what makes your videos so special and unique. Another big part is your reverence and enthusiasm for these places. Thank you for not letting them go forgotten. God bless!
We've certainly had more than our fair share of rain in recent years that will have greatly accelerated wood rot from slipped roof tiles.
What a beautiful piece of property, love the house and yes what a shame to see it go to waste.
Earliest ive ever been....lol, Love all your vids. brilliant just made a cuppa xx
Well you should get out of bed early...😆😂🤣👍👍👍
@@myrescuecats3028 lol, its 3pm here, been up since 5am,, UK
This is by far and away the most beautiful setting for any house you have explored! Stunning is not the word. Sad story behind it too. I’d kill to live here! Fab explore guys
