    WoW the library is incredible isn't it? The grounds are lovely and the bridge is so quaint over the pond

    What a beautiful house and gardens. I don't know all the artists you mentioned but the artwork is just beautiful 😍. The picture I liked the best was a small sunset picture over a door. The architecture in the library was just stunning. I can see why everyone said it was the best in England 🇬🇧. The grounds were so beautiful. Loved the tunnel of trees. I remembered about the bridge. You were very lucky with the weather. Just beautiful 😍.

      I was lucky with the weather and the wonderful views combined. I was also lucky as the library is not always open and I still can't believe that this is just another of those free places to come and see as well 😄👍

    I spent my childhood years exploring Hampstead Heath from one end to the other. I remember this house but it was not open to the public at all years ago when I was a child 1940's & 50's. I'm 84 now & the last time I was there was around 1961 before I moved away, married, had a family etc. Living in the US for many years now, but I like to rediscover my old haunts via TH-cam ! So thank you for your video & pleasant old memories !

    Steve, this is one of the most beautiful videos you have featured on your channel that I have seen thus far. This is so so exquisite! This must be a day journey for me when I go! This area reminds me of the videos I watch on the Cotswolds' and Buttermere!! I am amazed at the beauty and the vast acreage of the grounds. Kenwood House is so lovely. I love those gorgeous trees. And the ivy tunnel was gorgeous. Love the gardens. These paintings are my favorites in style - more like the Baroque style paintings. The grand rooms are breathtaking. I think my favorite room would be the music room. I love beautiful instrumental music myself and that room looks warm and relaxing. The other video that is almost as gorgeous as this is that grand historical cemetery you posted for Halloween a couple of years ago. Blessings.

      Thanks Luana, so pleased you enjoyed it. It's funny as the video doesn't do the colour in the painting or the sheer size of them justice, plus there was one room I didn't film which is again full of incredible painting to see, especially of the then King! :)

    The painting of the ships in a harbor at 2:33 is stunning. I am always so amazed that oak trees can last hundreds and hundreds of years!!! I remember the one video in a park where you featured a tree that is about 700 years old!!!
