I love it when the owners/custodians of these great estates talk about the history not just about the house themselves, but about their family history. It's so wonderful to hear Lord Montagu of Beaulieu talk about his family history.
Wikipedia Lord Montagu, born 1961, is a graphic designer and the Head of Heritage Radio at Radio Times. He is credited as a co-producer of Lord Montagu a documentary about his father, and a series of short films about the stars of the TV comedy series Dad's Army
Yet another brilliant insight into a beautiful, historic House and what a privilege to be able to drive the 1903 De Dion Bouton car with the current Lord Montagu at your side. I look forward to the next instalment...
The exterior is breathtaking..just as much as the interior. The stain glass Windows and fireplacrs esp wonderful...the library Door fantastic.a kind and gracious owner and a Beautiful Place.
I wonder if you truly understand how privileged you were to have been allowed to drive that antique vehicle! You had every right to be nervous as those vehicles are worth thousands and thousands of dollars. I think you carried off this whole segment with a lot of humility. I'm looking forward to seeing more videos...
Julie ... when you were driving the 1903 car, it reminded me so much of the scene from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang when Truly and Mr. Potts almost collide, sending Truly into the water. Please ask Luke how many times did he watch that movie with the flying car during childhood too? .... Stately home tour with a vintage car museum ..great episode.. What year is the gorgeous turquois Corvette? I hope it stole the show at the museum!
I just got addicted to these documentaries from Lady Montagu, Viscountess Hinchingbrooke. Great entertainment, and with great history details. Especially to re-visit all the places I have been to! I visited this place on 9.12.2017, celebrating the Christmas there! Thank you!
I recently started watching your channels. I live in Virginia and my jaw dropped when I heard in this video that the Montagu family is related to the Buccleuchs. I'm a Buccleuch descendant! So neat! I'll be catching up on all your past videos to learn more!
That was absolutely fascinating and entertaining, I have never heard a De Dion Bouton run up until now. I only learnt about the history of The Spirit of Ecstasy about 4 days ago and now I have seen the progeny of a person that traces his lineage back to that epoch.
Free energy. Radium heat. Tartarian like. Power plants ? We had our own power plant back then ? Yep. Those cars are like never before seen. Big beautiful house. ! What a wonderful place !
Beaulieu is so beautiful and it's history very interesting. I love the door with faux book facade!! I could listen to Lord Monatgu all day share stories about his home! The car museum is amazing! I love seeing you drive the de Dion Bouton My dad had a red MGB when I was little. Love from Vermont
Beaulieu is absolutely stunning! So much history! I love the formal dining room, the stained glass windows, just everything! Thank you for sharing this lovely home!!!!! Love your outfit Julie! Thank you to the camera person, also! Great job!
Thank you for allowing us to see these homes and learn about them in such authentic detail. This kind of presentation takes considerable time in the planning and execution. Congratulations on the success of your channel from another Daughter of Illinois.
How funny! I enjoyed the video very much! The little car was so adorable. Lord Montagu was very informative and so pleasant. It was as though the two of you were old friends. It must have been so much fun doing the interview. Great job!
Go Julie!))) You are SO Funny!)))) What a Fabulous episode. I was full of such Excitement and Fear for you while you were getting to experience driving that car with such happy whimsical music playing. I couldn’t stop smiling with happiness and shock for you.))))lololol You Go Girl!)))) Lots of Love from across the pond Jacqueline
Hi Julie, Another great show. I was listening at first and was thinking Luke was there with you! Of course, then realized that Lord Montague was speaking and how much his voice was like your Luke in intonation, manner of speech and “dry” humour. Then saw Montague name and realized they are parts of that family. So interesting. Thanks!
Oh what a joy of driving that vehicle! Thanks btw, for the live today about Queen Elizabeth. So sad the she passed, but she’s been reunited with Philip. An idea that would be awesome…please find some one to do a montage of her hats…I would also love to see a display of her hats at the Tower of London. They’ve always been amazing. Thank you Viscountess.
Wonderful video's you share with us. Loving to watch them , Including mapperton Live Channel. I have never been to England/Europe. I A'm watching from the South Island of New Zealand. My grandmother was born in England in Braintree Essex. :) Love to visit one day. Beautiful country.
Hey Julie, truly amazing history of your husbands/now your family really is, the house is just stunning, and the cars are beautiful not bad for your first test drive. Lord Montagu seems like such a delightful and funny man, looking forward to part two. Love from NY.
Julie, what a wonderful video! Thank you so much. I just love learning the history and seeing the beautiful homes. These are some of my favorites of all times! Keep it up! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💜
Such an interesting video of Momteguue . Love the.estate. such fun having the tour. The museum and driving the older car (.which was beaurifil). .I was nervous for you Julie! Not sure I could rememberyself of all one mustndo. ? But seemed like.all.at once you calmed down biy.once.you.used the.lever on outside of car and had better.control? Cannot wait to.seeore. Such a lovely man. So.kind and.willing.to give of his time and knowledge and the beauty of his famly.estate. I suppose.he.has to.be very careful.though.who it is he.shares it with, of course. Thank you for another enjoyable trip. One held close to your heart. And so.it is without watching as well, knowing the links
I have said this before, but as your videos get even better, I'll have to say it again, that was the best video on the channel. I have no interest in cars, but goodness, how I envy you driving that vintage one!
How great was this? I was worried along with you when you were driving that priceless car. You did a wonderful job. Thank you for showing us this beautiful home. Looking forward to the second half of this visit!
Many heartfelt thanks for your hard work and commitment to the projects you share with us on youtube. Apart from being beneficial to keep Mapperton going, your channels contribute to keep British cultural history alive and gives us an insight in modern rural life. (Julie, I'm sure with time you'll beat your fear of cowes). The mixture of American pragmatism and British humor make the episodes much fun to watch. (On this episode: when I close my eyes it is as if I hear Luke's voice when Lord Montagu is speaking). Loved watching the episode (like all the others). Hug from Girona.
So rewarding to experience the beautiful and welcoming interiors of this grand, famous estate, especially after having viewed several fascinating documentaries concerning the lord's inspiring, admirable father.
Delightful! I’m catching up on your videos as I have been obsessively watching everything about the Royal Family for over two weeks. This was refreshing and fun. I always have mixed emotions about the old abbeys and monasteries taken over by Henry VIII but we would not be seeing these magnificent estates otherwise. As usual you were awesome, Julie. I admire your style and hands on approach to everything that comes your way. Thank you.
Handled driving that like a Pro Julie! Watching seemed almost like learning to drive on a 3 speed clutch, on the steering column, lol! Excellent video! 💕
The car technicality speaks of why every household needed a “Driver/Car Caretaker”. Especially since owners are having wine at lunch, etc and then tea & afternoon cocktails and pre-dinner cocktails and then wine with dinner and then after dinner cocktails & cigars… everyday. Its a lifestyle! - Just Say’n. You’re going to need a driver.
I love it when the owners/custodians of these great estates talk about the history not just about the house themselves, but about their family history. It's so wonderful to hear Lord Montagu of Beaulieu talk about his family history.

I met him while visiting the automobile museum, delightful man, but felt sorry for what he must have endured with such an infamous father.
Looks like Mr.Toad's car from Wind in the Willows! Love it!
Wow,,,THAT 🚗 car is gorgeous! You look perfect, head scarf and all...Reminds me of a Grace Kelly movie!
Yet another brilliant insight into a beautiful, historic House and what a privilege to be able to drive the 1903 De Dion Bouton car with the current Lord Montagu at your side. I look forward to the next instalment...
Thank You! Episode 2 next week!
Lord M. seems to be such a nice gentelman with a calm personality and a soothing voice. It's a pleasure to listen to his stories.
All I could think about was chitty chitty bang bang! How wonderful, good job driving.
Lord Montagu is a sweetheart. His manners toward Julie are precious. Hope to be a patron again soon Julie. ❤
Julie you are doing such a wonderful job showing us these magnificent places. The people who let us into their homes Thank you so much too👏🏻🇺🇸♥️
Thank you for subbing and watching!
The exterior is breathtaking..just as much as the interior. The stain glass Windows and fireplacrs esp wonderful...the library Door fantastic.a kind and gracious owner and a Beautiful Place.
The humor gene is strong in Montague family ☺️he reminded me so much of your husband Luke!
A patron, I’m happy to be watching from San Francisco, CA… loving your videos…
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
He's the best teacher/ host I've ever seen, Great fun!
Historic houses and historic automobiles a great combination !
I wonder if you truly understand how privileged you were to have been allowed to drive that antique vehicle! You had every right to be nervous as those vehicles are worth thousands and thousands of dollars.
I think you carried off this whole segment with a lot of humility.
I'm looking forward to seeing more videos...
I have been waiting for this episode as a live a mile away. What struck me is how similar Luke and Ralph's voice are!
Me too! I also thought they had similar looks. I could tell there's a relation there!
I love the old cars.
Julie ... when you were driving the 1903 car, it reminded me so much of the scene from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang when Truly and Mr. Potts almost collide, sending Truly into the water. Please ask Luke how many times did he watch that movie with the flying car during childhood too? .... Stately home tour with a vintage car museum ..great episode..

I think it's a 1957 Chevy
It is!
The ‘57 didn’t change visually from the ‘56 C1 so the engine/transmission was the only change.
@@kathrynwitte3398 I just looked up the color...I think the 1957 color was called "Cascade Green "... I think only 550 were made. incredible!
I adore turquoise don’t you?
Kudos to you Julie for driving that classic antique car. I would have been PETRIFIED to attempt it.
Great ! Julie, you are such a trooper ! The best 😍
Fun video. As an architect, history buff, and historic preservationist, i was loving this. The cars are amazing! Thank you-
🙏🏻🙏🏻
So entertaining and informative. I enjoyed seeing the monorail.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Beaulieu is, indeed, a “beautiful place.” And how brave of you to drive that car. I would have been so nervous too.
Julie, that old car is wonderful (great color!). -Suits you.
This video brought back so many memories! My parents and I visited Beaulieu and the motor museum during the summer of 1978.
Oh my, how much fun is that!
Free energy. Radium heat. Tartarian like. Power plants ? We had our own power plant back then ? Yep. Those cars are like never before seen. Big beautiful house. ! What a wonderful place !
Wonderful driving skills!

She is always classy and modest in her clothing

It’s mind boggling that the 1903 car still drives. It’s beautiful and looks very much like a horseless carriage.
