BRITAIN'S 600 YEAR OLD CROOKED HOUSE// In this video, we'll meet the fascinating owners of Britain's 600-year-old wonkiest house. Alex & Oli have been living in the medieval Crooked House in Lavenham since 2021 and tell us all about its fascinating history and what it feels like to live in a 600 years old house. The Crooked House is one of the most photographed houses in the world and if you plan a visit to Lavenham, you must book a house tour (or one of the other amazing events) of the Crooked House as it's so fascinating. You will love it so much. In this video you will also learn whether the Crooked House is haunted or not. Enjoy! Kirsten & Joerg

  • I spent the first 40 years of my life going to Lavenham for Christmas every year as my grandmother lived in the Market Square next to the Guildhall. As you visualised, it was the most magical place at Christmas time. I had my 21st birthday party in the Guildhall. Loved your beautiful video which has brought back may wonderful and happy memories.

And then capitalism found it and it became endless Tesco's and Kentucky fried chicken and McDonald's... So sad, but I am so privileged to have known it when it was pure and magical...

  • Our English towns and villages are so special, as are the people who live in them. They are under serious threat from developers and councils all over England who are forcing new-build estates in their thousands. I pray we never lose our history and our lovely villages, once gone we can never get them back. I hope videos like this highlight how these places must be preserved. Beautiful video guys ❤

And I've found faults in every home. I'd never buy a new home or even rent. Not worth the hassle of problems throughout including outside the properties I've also had to deal with uh uh.

    • Thank you, Kirsten and Joerg, for another wonderful video! The Crooked House - its history, and the house itself, is positively extraordinary! Lavenham must be known for its crooked houses, as the town surely owns bragging rights to more than just the one. It's easy to understand why the town was used not once, but twice, as the backdrop for two of the Harry Potter movies. It has lovely charm, and is richly steeped in history . If, or when I ever get back to England, I'll be sure to visit Lavenham, and The Crooked House! Thank you both, again... You've made my day !

  • Liebe Kirsten und Jörg, es ist so schön dass es solche urige Häuser noch gibt. Ihr beide findet immer wieder etwas wo so interessant ist. Super! Die Besitzer vom Crooked House sind so nett. Aber ein bisschen gruselig ist es schon wenn man darüber nachdenkt was da schon alles passiert sein muss:)). Eine tolle Geschichte, und schön dass die beiden das Häuschen zeigen. Die ganzen alten Häuser wären ein wunderbares Zeichenmotiv. Euer Hotelzimmer sah auch sehr einladend aus. Die senkrechten Balken in dem Flur sehen dekorativ aus. Aber der Hammer war auch die Toilette mit der wunderschönen Tapete und dem Schwanhaken. Es hat so gar nicht nach Toilette ausgesehen. So etwas findet man selten. Zumindest hier in Deutschland habe ich sowas noch nicht gesehen. Ich bin wieder total begeistert von eurer wunderbaren Arbeit. Vielen Dank, und euch ein schönes Wochenende. Ganz herzliche Grüße, Gabi:-)

I once learned on a video that these many homes in the UK where the 2nd story has a larger footprint than the first floor was done for lower property taxation which was based of dimensions of the structures footprint. Also, to stay proper distance from the street both based on lower level only.

  • Oh such an enchanting video ! It was a pleasure to visit this medieval house I didn t know at all. The owners have a good heart to show their house and were so interesting to listen. This stunning village gives the sensation to walk through the past. A good moment to dream. Thank you for your videos so well filmed. ❤❤❤

Just difficult to describe the emotion I felt, watching this piece of history. Thank you so much! 🙋🌞✨✨✨

  • Gosh what a lovely video and so evocative of the olden times where magic was in the air and poets were abounding! I was brought up on poetry and stories so this took me back to childhood memories round our old Tudor fireplace in the 50’s with singing round the piano, board games and story telling . A simple and magical time i was fortunate to have and your video gave me that same beautiful gentle feeling. Thankyou Kirsten and Joerg for your efforts and sweetness. The world is better place with your in it❤

  • You two really bring us to the best places, this was such a charming visit. I'm a firm believer in our angels looking over us, Alex & Oli's made sure they got the crooked house. I wonder if they've looked into everyone who lived there and where visitors. Just has me wondering if their own ancestors where there, over 600 yrs, there's been a lot of people thru their door. Lastly, I see you guys have 38K new subscribers already, good for you, I'm sure they're loving going where you take us.

I always check a map to see where you are each vlog. You are far from home this time. Alex and Oli are great hosts and tell a great story about the origins of the crooked house. I sure do remember that children’s rhyme. Thank you again for taking us along on yet another wonderful vlog.

  • 600 years old? Wow! I don't think there are over 600 years old buildings in the USA, at least in PA. I am aware there are ancient buildings in UK/Europe. Even though, I am not a fan of medieval buildings, but this is nice! Lol, I was planning to ask if it is haunted. I am so fascinated with paranormal, etc. The owners seem nice and awesome. Looks like it is your first interview with the owners of the buildings, your other videos are just of you two give a tour of each room, etc. You two did a good job on the interview and filming.

  • Em primeiro lugar quero dizer que Alex & Oli são tão "lindos" que deveriam estar nas telas de um filme!!! A casa de mais de 600 anos é mais uma evidência de como nossa existência é breve e por último, fico me perguntando, como vocês dois tem ideias tão boas, sobre lugares fantásticos e chego à acreditar que mesmo os próprios "Ingleses", desconheçam. Beijos e já aguardando novas "aventuras". Rio de Janeiro - Brasil.

Thank you for showing us such a wonderful house, and such a gorgeous village. This was a delight. I know it's a bit early, but I can't wait to see what you guys offer us for Christmas. Your videos last minutes, but put us in a long-lasting vacation mood . 😊
