    Dear Nicholas
    This is the first time I'm commenting on your channel, shame on me.
    I love watching you. Why? Because I always feel so good watching you. I love the music, your voice, your visits to stately homes and how you're keeping alive the table settings around English tea. I'm an old soul and love the old way of living even though I was born in the 1960's😊.
    If I could I would send you this little note in a letter with a wax seal.
    Thank you for having such a beautiful channel.❤❤Natalie

    Just wandering along with you on your daily activities is a pleasure and informative. Never apologize for a disappointing interior. The National Trust instead, demonstrates how much of an effort it is to maintain these great houses and their contributions to the UK’s unique history. You are a godsend to so many people the world over during these dark and troubled times.🇨🇦😊

    Hello Nicolas!
    Thank you for taking us along for your visit to your family. My Mother died of Breast Cancer in 2020, and I do miss her terribly. She hid her disease and hospitalization from family until close to the end, thinking she was protecting us from reality. Enjoy your parents while you have them. I pray that your Mom completely recovers from her surgery. Your Christmas Tea was a huge success at our house last year, and I will definitely be ordering again closer to December.
    Much ❤from Canada 🇨🇦!

      @@NicolasFairford Thank you for your best. Your video content, interiors, baking, tea, books, architecture... all remind me of the best of my Mom. Your trick of adhesiveless, bow tied, Christmas wrapped presents was also one of her's. I love your British ways; Mom's Mom was, and though she died when I was very young, I see your manners in things reenacted by my Mom. You help me reconnect with the British part of my heritage; and I am very grateful for you.
      God Bless
      and ❤ Andrew

    If you ever visit Los Angeles you must visit the Huntington Library, Museum, and Botanical Gardens. It was the estate of Henry Huntington who made his fortune building the railroads in Southern California, particularly the Red Car trolleys that used to run throughout the city. It would be interesting to see this estate, from someone who spent his fortune buying those artifacts from the decaying estates in England. Huntington’s most notable acquisitions are probably the famous painting of Gainsborough’s Blue Boy and the Ellesmere manuscript of the Canterbury Tales. The gardens are also exquisite and quite varied, including English, Japanese, and Chinese gardens.

    How lovely this video was, so nice to see you baking at your sister’s home and that wonderful home tour was very interesting. It is sad when these places have had the furniture removed and I agree we must preserve these beautiful places and keep them maintained for our enjoyment. The tea sounds fantastic. The scenery you filmed as wonderful. I feel the same way when I come home from spending time away from my flat and the silence after being with others. Take care.

    Beautiful Nicholas and the cookies looked so delicious and cold just see your nieces face when she got home and saw the cookies! She probably was thinking about it, off and on all day! Looking forward to her uncle making them for her!
    Your sisters home looks lovely, that is a nice kitchen to bake or cook in, so it seems.
    Lord Lichfield's apartment would have been so fabulous am sure with the furnishings in it. A lovely mansion. I enjoyed the tour and no apologies, as it was really nice as it was! Did enjoy it and looking around even the land and how beautiful it was on that day to take the tour.
    I too have considered helping by being part of the National Trust by joining it. As do see how beneficial it would be to keep up all these lovely homes. If no one does, they will be ruined quickly. They do start taking a toll faster than people think.
    Thank you, Nicholas!

    Thanks for the tour of Shugborough. I was there a number of years ago and enjoyed it immensely. The National Trust sites are wonderful and I have been to quite a few when I have visited from Canada. I love the walled gardens that so many of the historic homes have. This year I saw Hardwick House and Calke Abbey as well as Tamworth Castle (not a National Trust site) where they had some of the Staffordshire Horde. The history in the UK is wonderful. Glad your niece liked your cookies and you had a good family visit. Enjoy your trip.

    If you happen to visit the East of England there is a beautiful National Trust Jacobean house near Cambridge. There is a lot to see there as the gentleman who owned it up until 1966 (he left it to the NT in his will) had vast collections of paintings, books, tapestries, sculptures and silverware. It is also fully furnished with the original furnishings, the reason being, he wanted the house to be seen as it was, as he lived. That was one of the conditions if it was to be bequeathed to the NT.
    It wasn’t a case of running out of money, he died at the age of 69 and the house is where he lived most of the year.
    Anyway, it’s stunning. I think you would enjoy visiting.

    Thank you for another great video! I loved the tour and the recipe on the cookies. I want to make those. And i agree on the landscape...i tink it is a Capability Brown landscape. I have been watching a lot of videos and reading about him. I loved his casual style concept but ironically, it was a lot of work to create a more natural landscape. And I actually still have a full pouch of your tea and had a cup last night before bed. It is so comforting! I will be ordering more as I was thinking last night how I needed more for the holiday! I have also had the flu as the weather here in Richmond, VA has turned cold so your tea is perfect!!!! Thank you Nicolas...and safe travels to see your friend.

It's fun to think that you're looking through a window that's been looked through for centuries and often at views that remain what they once were!

    I liked the tour of Shugborough Hall, even if it was a work in progress, that library was fantastic! I live in the states and know nothing about how the monarchy does their day to day life. I didn't realize that private apartment meant they didn't live in the big part of the house, I didn't make the connection until you said William and Kate. I assumed private apartments were for the groundskeeper. Thanks for the explanation. Looking forward to more of these videos!

    Lovely vlog. Shugborough Hall has really pretty colours of walls, more pastel than in other stately homes.

    This is one of my favorite videos you've made. So relaxing. I lost my cat (she passed away) this Spring and seeing/hearing you miss Sophie was so touching. I wish my cat were coming home next week.

    Thanks for the little peak of the private apartments! It actually makes me want to visit the property and more National Trust sites!!

    We’re still drinking margaritas where I live! I’ve got to watch UK videos to get a glimpse of the fall. 🙂
