My husband and I spent our honeymoon at Biltmore. Every day was a new adventure, from the exquisite mansion tour, the winery tastings, the gardens, the grounds, the horseback riding, dining in the fabulous restaurants....it was a magical time for us. I visited after his passing and the memories came back to life for me. The beauty of Biltmore Estate and grounds is indescribable and an absolute destination to anyone who adores the history of that time period. I shall return one day. Thank you for this video.

I was attending a forensic Academy in Knoxville, and one weekend we decided let’s drive over to Biltmore. So it was me, a detective from Seattle, and a fellow crime scene tech from Tennessee. We adored the property and stayed there until dusk. After dining at the hotel, we made our way back to Knoxville after dark. This was in 2007. I remember one of the guys told us that we needed to come back at Christmas time because all of the rooms shown to the public would be decorated, and I could just imagine how beautiful it would be. Of all the rooms and areas on the property, I think my very favorite was stepping out onto one of the outside decks, and looking at that glorious view. I kept thinking if I had that kind of money, that’s where I would’ve build a mansion! 😂 haven’t been back since, but I still think about how enjoyable everything was when we went there. Highly recommend it if you’ve never been there.

I did a tour of this place when I lived in the area in the late 1990s. Included in the tour were the servants' quarters and a more detailed look at the kitchen. I will never forget the washing sink - the sink where the dishes were cleaned. It was so tiny, I just imagined that one servant would have had to stand there basically from first light to late in the night doing dishes in this tiny sink...

I've visited multiple times and was always blown away, as the pictures don't do it justice. The bedrooms are all so large, that when you walk in, you see what you think is a tiny bed. However, once you get closer to the bed, you realize it's a regular-sized or even large bed that is just dwarfed by the scale of the room. Highly recommend renting the personal audio tour, a set of headphones that plays extra tidbits of information for each room you walk through, as well as ambient noise (like the sound of billiards balls in the billiards room) that make the house come alive.

Honestly I thought you were talking about the Marlborough Blenheim in England and I'm pretty sure when you look at the logo on a pack of Marlboro smokes I always thought it came from the Marlborough Blenheim which is a real palace type home in England and where Winston Churchill was born . His grandparents lived there and he spent a lot of his youth especially his childhood there and it's hard to imagine because the place is absolutely massive . ... I had to look at several documentaries on it before I realized how immense it was . It's a bunch of buildings all built together as one and then down at the end it curves sort of u-shape and it is so enormous that you can be in one part of the building looking out the window across the courtyard at the other part of the same household . You might want to look at some of the documentaries about it because I'm positive that's where the marble cigarettes got their name but they Americanized the spelling .

I first went to Biltmore in 1976. After returning home from that first trip, I wrote a scathing letter to the Biltmore estate owners condemning them for their cruelty to the water foul that were on the estate. I scolded them in no uncertain terms that they would go so far as to amputate one leg of each of the large birds just to prevent them from escaping the grounds. (at the time, I was thinking they wanted to keep the birds there to add visually to the tourists experience).... The Biltmore people were kind enough to write me back. They explained to me that when it's cold, water foul often stand on one leg/foot, with the other leg/foot tucked up into the lower torso, warming one foot at a time. And they assured me that all of the birds on the estate still had both of their legs! I'll bet they got a good laugh from my ignorance; I still have their letter; I wonder if they still have mine?

The ladies would have walked in the lavish gardens or maybe for fun ride a bicycle on one of the paths one the estate or maybe played a game of croquet on the massive lawn. The gentlemen riding or racing horses. Possibly, hunting or just walking around discussing business or politics. The stables there were very large and the horses would have been well cared for. If you ever get the chance to go, take you imagination with you.

I visited several years ago - it is an astounding estate just as you describe. My favorite room was George’s library and that long metal spiral staircase going up to the ceiling with so many books. Walking the grounds was tiresome in North Carolina summer heat but had beautiful gardens everywhere. The stables were converted to a nice restaurant that sold the Biltmore label wines. Too bad George died so young from appendicitis. Very inexpensive admission for a great family day trip.

Back in around 2008/2009ish school year as a fifth grader, my teacher has each student pick a state to do a project on as their major project grade for the grading quarter. I was given North Carolina. And I learned so much about this estate that I wanted to go there badly. Luckily, two years later for Christmas break, my parents, deciding to not only surprise me but to also see if I remembered what I learned, decided to take a family vacation to the city this place was located in. And took me to the Biltmore Estate. I was so utterly happy finally seeing the place I spent days learning about for a project that I still consider that trip to be my favorite trip ever, even after over 13 years later as a grown adult in her mid-20's

So many awesome rooms cit would be difficult to pick a favorite. On our first trip, I think in 1996 we arrived mid afternoon and at that time late arrivals could go back the next day so we did. We spent a big part of the second day taking a slower tour to take everything in the building in then explored the grounds and outbuildings. It’s not for everybody, a coworker found it boring, but if you enjoy historic sites it is well worth the time.

Adding in the grounds to equal Olmsted's sublime accomplishment, goodness, that would add at LEAST a billion or so to the price tag, I should think? What I found most fascinating about the Biltmore when I visited was how plain, even kind of dull, the interior decor was, certainly compared to all the other Vanderbilt interiors. Did George furnish on such a plain scale deliberately, or did he simply run out of funds, I wonder? A fascinating home, for certain!
