Hopetoun House (S01E05)

Title: Hopetoun House Plot: Phil heads north to explore Hopetoun House, a stunning estate nestled in the Scottish Lowlands. Gaining exclusive access to historical documents, he delves into the remarkable past of this architectural marvel and the immense resources—both financial and labor—that went into its creation. The Hopetoun family, having amassed wealth through lead mining, lavishly invested in their estate, commissioning two renowned Scottish architects. Joined by the current Lord Hopetoun, Phil tours the opulent interiors, many of which have retained their Georgian elegance, while also meeting the dedicated staff and exploring the expansive 6,500-acre grounds.
