HADDON HALL - the most perfectly preserved Medieval house in England!

The GVC crew venture to Derbyshire's Haddon Hall and give it their unique and loving treatment - Linked to King Henry VIII, William the Conqueror and a whole host of historical events, Haddon Hall is famed for its immaculate architecture and stunning history. It's not surprising Haddon Hall has been the setting for many a famous film and countless TV productions.

    👋🏻Howdy from Texas! Brothers and Sisters! Yep, Wolf Hall and The King…. Saw where Cromwell had his fantasy about Anne but didnt see the room where Henry V dressed down and killed his Chief Justice…Man what I would give to sleep on the floor 1 winter night by the fireplace 🔥

    As a descendent of Sir Richard de Vernon (the first Vernon to own Haddon) and Alice Avenell, it warms my heart to see such a positive review or the ancestral home. It has always ben a wish of mine to visit it, as have many of my cousins, but alas, I never had the opportunity. Thanks again for the glowing review.

    Both of our presenters, Gavin and Jo, are also descendants of Richard Vernon, and it really is quite a spectacular place! Maybe one day you will be fortunate enough to visit, and if you do, definitely try the cream teas in the tea room :D

    @@govisitcastles Thank you for this video. I have loved Haddon Hall since I saw it in the version of "Jane Eyre" with Michael Fassbender and Mia Wasikowska, which I think may have been my introduction to it. And thank you for the well-informed narration and lack of intrusive music and fake rushing water and birdsongs throughout your video!!

    The Long Gallery at Haddon Hall and especially its ceiling were the decorative inspiration for the First Class dining saloon on board the RMS Olympic & Titanic.

    @@richwebster117 This afternoon I was in `Ye Olde White Hart Inn," in the Old Town of Hull - close to The Land of Green Ginger. If I was in the Bar thena couple walked in, asked for a couple of drinks and went into the Lounge. Two minutes had not passed before the lass ( of the couple ) was back asking for more drinks, since the first ones they had purchased had been taken away from them and broken against the wall closest to them. As I left I saw one of the excellent Barmaids cleaning up the smashed glass and liquid. I was so , so disappointed since I`d have loved to have been sat 10 ft away from where I was in fact sat and seen this spooky stuff with my own eyes. I hate being the skeptic.

    People didn’t enjoy the Long Gallery at all, that was preserved for one’s Lord’s and Ladies as we the peasantry wallowed down in the sewers and these buildings lay testimony to that.
