A CASUAL PICNIC AT MR DARCY'S PEMBERLEY: WOULD JANE AUSTEN APPROVE?
A CASUAL PICNIC AT MR DARCY'S PEMBERLEY: WOULD JANE AUSTEN APPROVE?// Happy Friday, Time for a little Jane Austen road trip here in our area! If you're a big fan of the BBC 1995 adaptation of 'Pride & Prejudice', you will recognise Lyme Park in Cheshire straight away. Yes, that's right, it's Mr Darcy's Pemberley and it's a beautiful National Trust property that we have visited many times. It's a wonderful house from the 16th century on the edge of the stunning Peak District.
We filmed the house and grounds for you and also had a casual picnic with classic tea sandwiches and sausage rolls. Stay tuned for next week Friday where we share what you will need for a relaxed picnic in the countryside. We hope Jane Austen would approve. Have a wonderful weekend. Kirsten & Joerg xx

I propose that Kirsten, Joerg and all their subscribers and fans move in together at Lyme Park, as we are clearly just the kind of discerning people who would appreciate the surroundings most.
I second that motion. I will make the gluten free scones!!
Sounds good to me! Lets go...
Great idea!! 😉🌸
I'm in Canada...it will take me a minute to get there! 😁
@@elizabethanne8729 I'll make strawberry jam!
Aww, how sweet - Joerg is your Mr. Darcy. And Kirsten, you are his Lizzie. May we all be so blessed in love. 💜
I am always so happy when I see Kirsten and Joerg come up in my notifications! Thank you so much once again!
Me too. I just love their friendly, welcoming videos. They really make you feel like you are there with them.
Our family is thrilled with the slow sweeping motion of your camera's eye, :)
Since I can’t be in the UK at the moment, I’m living there through your beautiful and humorous videos! Thank you for the work you put into your channel and content!
Hopefully you can come over in 2022!🙏
Yes! I underline every word!! 😍😍👏🏼👏🏼🤗🤗🌸🌸
Thank you K&J! I missed the tea and cake!! 😉😉🌸😍
The entire property is amazing, just beautiful. The picnic under that ginormous tree looked so relaxing. What I liked most, that they not only have portraits of family with pets, they have portraits of the pets. Gotta love people who love their pets that much.
You two have such a good time together. Same interests and appreciation of your adopted country. I can’t imagine the wealth of the families that built and lived in these manor houses. Unbelievable. Thank you for the tag-along again.👋🏼😊💕🇺🇸
Long time subscriber here. I can't believe I missed this one. I'm a huge fan of Pride and Prejudice (Colin Firth as Mr Darcy). Pemberly is magnificent. Thank you for taking me. Best wishes from Toronto 🇨🇦😊💜
You both are so calm, a joy to watch. Unlike we Americans who are more loud and boisterous. 🤣
Not all of us are loud and boisterous---many Americans actually have a very quiet nature. We don't get noticed...we fade into the background....because the loud ones stand out!
Can’t agree more
I am one of those loud Americans. And it’s very funny that you mention this, because when I’m here, particularly when I’m filming video, I find myself always whispering... to NOT appear obnoxious! 😉
@@margietucker1719 haha, NOOOO! I lived in the US for many years & i found most Americans to be quite loud (albeit many were very friendly & hospitable), but could also be quite aggressive & very defensive unfort, especially when challenged regarding past historical truths. I do speak from very personal experience & i know many non-Americans, but even Americans, who do think the same way unfort.
@@MagentaOtterTravels lol
You both have me obsessed with going to England. Its the first item on my bucket list. Thank you for showing us all how absolutely lovely your country is..❤
Time to plan a trip for 2022!❤️🏴
Beautiful castle, thanks for sharing your FUN day with us. LOVED the flower garden. LOVE from Chicago
I grew up near Chicago ❤️🇺🇸... actually born and raised in two towns with SCOTTISH names - Elgin and Dundee - currently living in England.❤️🇬🇧
“But for me, you are Mr, Darcy!” ..I loved that! So sweet!!
I laughed so hard when you asked Joerg if he wanted to swim and he said a quick but decisive “No” and scurried away. 🤣 That house is one of my favorites and so had no idea it was so close you where you live! How convenient and pleasant!
Hahah at least you don't have to swim in that lake, you can just stand lol.
If I remember correctly they explained in “ the making of Pride and prejudice” that the lake was too shallow so the actual diving was not filmed there. 😊 @@KirstenJoerg
Hello from the Highlands of Scotland again. Thoroughly enjoyed your tour, thank you for sharing and giving me some much needed quality and peace.
Ohhhh, the sweet Highlands of bonnie Scotland! One of our favourite places on earth. My husband's clan originate from the NW Highlands, so yes, it's very close to home. Some of my clan originate from the lovely Argyll & Bute region, but also from the gorgeous Shetland & Orkney Islands. Cheers & Peace to you & all. :-)
How wonderful… a picnic at Pemberley. Really enjoyed you taking us along. Thank you!!
Heartfelt thanks to you both for seeing us through the hard times we have had this year. You have soothed our souls on many an anxious day. Hope you can now visit your families at last. If it is not too personal for you to film, we would love to see more of Germany!❤️
Hello Kirsten and Joerg well another lovely video from you again as usual and very apt as I'm approaching the end of Pride and Prejudice as I work my way through Jane Austen. The lilies in the orangery were lovely , in fact the whole garden is beautiful. I must say you always find somewhere nice and quiet to have your picnic and it looked so tasty too. The house was used by friends of ours years ago for their Daughters wedding reception and she had a lace parasol as part of her wedding attire which just seemed so fitting . When I go into houses like that I always go off into dreamland and imagine myself living there 😁 My husband , Laurence would love it because he has always fancied a sit on lawnmower . However , I think if he went around those lawns with it he would be gone all day !! I must say Joerg made a very nice Mr Darcy !. Thankyou for sharing your time in Lyme Park with us and have a lovely weekend . Love to you both xx🌹
You two make everything OK and classy no mater how simple or complex you just love and appreciate everything don't lose those endearing ways carol
Loved it when Joerg stepped in front of the camera as your Mr.Darcy! You both are such a joy to watch. Thank you for sharing these beautiful places with us. The picnic lunch looked delicious... cheers from Canada .❤
Omg lazy day today , I am in my 5th hour now , watching your videos back to back . Trouble is now watching all your picnics has made me feel hungry 😋🥪🍱🍰🍦🍩🍪🍾🥂
Wonderful filming - and a marvellous inspiring picnic! Thank you so much.
An amazing picnic at Pemberley...so lovely💝
Как бы я хотела побывать в Пемберли! Благодаря вам я там побывала. Огромное спасибо!
I really enjoyed the tour of the beautiful home and gardens. Your picnic looked delicious...I am looking forward to next week's recipes! Tomorrow I will be grilling chicken and making your German potato salad!
Hello from California……I love your adventures! Just an absolutely beautiful place to have a proper picnic. I haven’t seen sandwiches wrapped in paper and tied with string for a very long time. I feel as if I’m traveling along with you, at least in my mind. Thank you so much for sharing. I can hardly wait for next Friday’s sausage roll recipe!!💜🌼🌸
My husband and I lived in both northern and southern California, but currently are living in England. Ian does not even like sausage rolls, but he thought the ones Kirsten showed looked amazing! Adding the apricot and the sesame seeds really makes them extra special! I’m looking forward to the recipe too! Cheers XX Dara
Hi from Connecticut - I, too, am looking forward to your picnic recipes. Where did you get the decorative sandwich wrap? How civilized of you to use your special china for your picnic (basket must be heavy). Thanks for this lovely video.
You are such a lovely couple and looking forward to your videos every time. Keep on going!🌸👒😀🫖☕️🍰
You can say cheers with a sandwich..😊😊your picnic under the tree.I expected the white rabbit to appear at any moment
I love all your videos, you are very entertaining. I love watching all your travels around the UK. Thank you from New Zealand.
Looks so lovely, I would love a picnic hamper or bag for 2 ,must have a look ! So inspirational to enjoy the simple joys like a sandwich in the English countryside. Thanks !
Love the music you use in the videos, adds to the relaxing atmosphere. Thank you.
I love these videos. Just beautiful. Thank you, K and J.
Always a pleasure watching your videos....I love the UK so much. Thank you, Rosanne from Malta
Thank you for sharing this amazing home and beautiful grounds...Do believe Jane Austen would approve of the estate and your lovely picnic..I too love the BBC adaptation of "Pride and Prejudice" with Colin Firth. In fact I had watched the DVD so often I had to purchase a new copy just this year..😊. Take care..from Arizona USA
What a cute picnic! Great to see the interiors (the house itself was closed when I visited, wah)!
Loved this video of such a beautiful garden and the elegance and calm way you present💕allways a pleasure to see your gentle sweet ways🥰Thankyou for creating these short films ❤️
This trip was absolutely Devine. I so enjoyed every scene . It's such a delight to see you both enjoying your trips and all the special things like the picnic. Makes a lovely day when you love doing what you love to do!. LOOK forward to the next videos.
Oh come on Joerg, if the water is not deep, a perfect set up for you to walk out of the reflection pool to your awaiting Kirsten. ") This is all so wonderful, and as ones say in the deep south of America when words can not be found to express such wonderfulness, "Lord have mercy!" Thanks so much. In Joy
You both always take my breath away with the video of your journeys ❤ It's always so exciting to see where we are being taken next! You both are so deeply appreciated ❤
Da könnte ich stundenlang zuschauen. Genau das was mir an GB so gefällt. Alle Achtung vor den vielen Volunteers die das alles instand halten.
Und wir waren mit euch da, das war so ein schöner Tag!
I’m in heaven at Pemberly! I had no idea it was on the edge of the Peak District, I thought it was in the Lake District because Miss Bennett traveled with her aunt and uncle there in the movie. Seeing all you showed us was wonderful and I had a great feeling of satisfaction knowing Elizabeth got to live a happy life there with Mr D. Btw, you guys looked so beautiful in the far shot of your picnic sitting by the tree, it looked like an impressionist painting!! I can’t believe you guys have jackets on , I’m sweltering in 90+ degrees enjoying this video.🥵 Thank you so much.
Oh, you mean in the BBC adaption? No, that's also in the Peak District when Elizabeth travels with her aunt and uncle.
Me encanto su recorrida muy lindo lugar
Love seeing Jane Austins house.Picnic was amazing..
Thank you once again,really enjoyed watching this first thing in the morning here in Australia, set me up for the day. 💕
Ahhhh, Australia, what an amazing country!! I loved my time there & found the people, the great food & the lifestyle, plus much more, to be superb! If i could live there for years some day, i would. And, i just may do. One of my gf's lives in Launceston, Tasmania. Oh my, what a gorgeous & charming part of the world. It reminds me, of some parts of NW Europe, by & large. Cheers & Peace to you & all. :-)
Another beautiful video. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us. The house is gorgeous and the gardens are stunning. ❤️
Beautiful Perberley! Love Colin Firth as Mr Darcy!!😍
Hello The house was Gorgeous if the walls could talk what history !!!! That greenhouse a lovely place for a wedding the gardens just beautiful .Your picnic lunch was Delicious looking.Thank you for a Splendid video.

It's a cloudy day here, waiting on the rain to start. The views are so beautiful in this video! I love Jane Austen and have ever since I learned how to read just about. After watching this video, I think I'm going to pull out some Jane Austen and do a little reading. There's nothing like a good book on a rainy day! ❤️Happy Friday everyone everywhere!!❤️
Jane Austen would definitely approve that is for sure. Picnic and video,wonderful as usual,thank you.
Thanks à lot..it is so refreshing This lovely and quiet promenade...what à peacefull moment...!!!!!
It’s great to see you enjoying yourself, your content always uplifts me 👒
Dear Kirsten and Joerg, thank you for sharing with all of us your adventure in Pemberley ! Bisous from Alsace 😁😍😘🤗
When we were visiting Engalnd , a family that we went to see served us cucumber sandwiches just like yours!! We loved them.They were very gentle and polite My mother raised AKC collies and so did they.
Nice surprise, your video. I'm as green as the hillside to be there in spirit. Love the picnic basket, even the sandwich wrappers were amazing. How lucky you can live so close to such a place, and I remember the scenes from the movie, one of my favorites too, great tour. Looking forward to the next video for your yummy sandwiches and sausage rolls recipes. Take care you lovely people🤗💝

So sorry to hear you've been unwell Kathleen! Wonderful to hear that you're on the mend, all the best.
You two are just the sweetest!! ❤️ Thank you for living all my anglophile dreams 😊
The 1995 version of Pride and prejudice is my favorite adaptation! I have watched it so many times on DVD. Thank you for sharing the video so cool!!
What beautiful music that accompanies lovely people in this adventure. Thank you.
Thanks so much Cynthia!
und einen guten morgen to you Joerg. What a Beautiful opening scene Kirsten. The house and grounds are very beautiful. You are so very lucky to have such a place so close. You and Joerg had a very English picnic I must say. 🇬🇧. It must be cool there if you need a jacket. We are having 90 degree weather lately. Today has been 75 degrees and I spent most of the day on the back garden. Cheers Ron & Dovie
What a lovely picnic with actual plates and glasses. The food looked divine. Well done Kirsten . Excellent filming as always Joerg.
Aaawwww what a lovely look at Pemberley … just gorgeous ❤️🇬🇧❤️ thank you… from New Zealand 🇳🇿
Thanks so much for the superb video of Pemberley…how lucky you are to be able to visit there often…the unforgettable scene of Mr.Darcy emerging from the pond no doubt was on everyone’s mind…the house & gardens are so beautiful…love your picnic basket & contents so exquisitely prepared & enjoyed on the Burleigh plates so much more sophisticated than paper or plastic….
Beautiful Beyond inside...All the paintings 😍💓💓💓💓
First, THANK YOU both for expanding my world! Second, it always strikes me that your English is so good! I forget you’re German! I wish I had a second language. Finally, I LOVE all the historical information you include! I’m a gardener so I always enjoy the lush garden content but coupled with the historical information, not to mention the literary info, well, it’s a great pleasure! See you soon and you keep well, too, please!
Very excited to see this! The BBC Pride & Prejudice is the ONLY Pride & Prejudice film/tv adaption as far as I’m concerned 😂
It's our ultimate favourite too - it's so good!
Splendid house and lanscape ! Thanks for the nice video Kirsten and Jörg...and the picnic seemed to be very yummy. Looking forward for the recipes next Friday ! Love from Switzerland 💞🇨🇭
Beautiful filming and music!! Beautiful place!!
Sensational from start to finish! If Lyme Park has a Christmas decor, please go back to record that🎄. Looking forward to the recipes!
Hallo ihr beiden!! Mr. D'Arcy's Pemberley - wunderschön! Und der Garten und der Park - hervorragend! Delikates Picknick! Lecker! Schöne Grüße aus einem gewittergeplagten Niederbayern von Annette ⛈️🌧️☔
That was a beautiful day out Joerg and Kirsten hope there will be many more💞💞
What a beautiful place and I thoroughly enjoy seeing the inside! I feel the same as you staying overnight in such a big place..hopefully it’s more than one person Looking forward to to your sandwich recipes. Such a nice picnic basket full of goodies! Take care 🇨🇦 ❤️
Starting a Saturday morning watching you two, while drinking my coffee and tea. Love the feeling of calm and tranquility of your vids!

You re both great . Thank you for sharing all the stately homes and gardens of the UK . I always enjoy watching your videos .
Kirstin and Joerg, thank you so much ,what a beautiful place, looking at your picnic lunch has made me hungry! Thanks so much, I'm looking forward to the recipes next week!
I love the fact you took your good dishes and “tied” your sandwiches the old fashioned way. As always, I love to watch your visits to the stately homes and especially “Pemberly”.
Hi Kirsten and Juergen, My name is Vicki and I am watching all of your videos one after the other pretending I am there with you. I would love to have your weather as I cannot deal with our Melbourne Aus summer. Today it reached 30 Celsius and it was way to hot. Three days like this in a row and you have no energy to do anything. So, don’t complain about the Eng summer weather. 10 yrs ago I booked a car for 7 days and did the Jane Austen tour with my niece. I missed Lyme house. I would kill to do it again. So, I enjoy your experiences. I also love the shopping and antique shopping. I love your house improvements. I approve of all choices. Maybe one day I’ll visit and do it again…its on my list of things to do. I am watching the videos back to back and its as if I am there’s …thank you
Oh my I am so loving this❤ All things related to Jane Austen are just so, so wonderful!! Thank-you very much for taking us into the heart of another lovely estate...loved every minute of this video!!
I loved your video ❣️. A feast for all the senses!!! 🎶🌺 😍Oh that perfect pink rose....the fragrance must be divine! Definitely Jane Austen would have approved and been delighted. Your luncheon basket filled with goodies looked delicious....will look forward to your recipes. Thank you again....so enjoyed!
Thanks for sharing just beautiful so perfect and peaceful!🌸💕🙂🇨🇦
You are such a sweet couple, you portray a more peaceful and simpler time in life. Best wishes always, Yvonne in Australia x
Your filming is superb
I agree with you about the best view of the house, that was magnificent! And the Orangerie was incredible! I really love the lilies and that fountain!💕
Beautiful video you two are fabulous. Kirsten & your Mr Darcy are so lovely. Keep up the great videos I so enjoy them. Thank you ❤️
😍❤️Soooooo wunderschön..... Danke💐
