We Fell in Love with an Old Victorian Schoolhouse in Northumberland
Kirsten & Joerg: 2 Germans in Britain
View ChannelAbout
We're two Germans living in the UK, sharing our love for British cottages, countryside charm and timeless interiors. On this channel, we take you on deeply atmospheric tours through some of the most beautiful holiday cottages and historic homes across England, Scotland and Wales - always with an eye for colour, texture and detail. We speak English (with a British accent!) and share not only the interiors but also the paint colours, wallpapers and fabrics used - so you can recreate the look. Beyond that we show you our own Victorian home renovations, bake German and British cakes, explore the prettiest villages and occasionally film with British designers and business owners in their own inspiring homes. Whether you're here for escapism, interiors or countryside inspiration - you're very welcome. 🎥 New video every week. 📍 Filming across the UK – from Cornish cottages to Scottish hideaways. 💌 Business & collaborations: [email protected]

Video Description
Take a look inside this beautifully restored Victorian schoolhouse - now a dreamy English cottage near the North Sea coast of Northumberland. Once a small village school, it's been lovingly transformed into a cosy countryside retreat filled with British-made details: from wallpaper made by heritage English brands to handwoven rugs from Scotland and curtains from Yorkshire. We'll take you through every room, share the story behind this former schoolhouse and end the weekend with a visit to the magnificent Bamburgh Castle nearby. 📍 Filmed near the North Sea coast of Northumberland, England _____ *THIS VIDEO IS NOT SPONSORED* LINDISFARNE VIEW: https://www.crabtreeandcrabtree.com/properties/lindisfarne-view/ (*Thank you so much for allowing us to film*) BAMBURG CASTLE: https://www.bamburghcastle.com _____ COLE & SON: https://cole-and-son.com MORRIS & CO.: https://www.wmorrisandco.com/uk/ FARROW & BALL: https://www.farrow-ball.com ANTA: https://www.anta.co.uk/collections/carpet-rugs?srsltid=AfmBOoou2SPJYgoty5M4rQ4_FNVdAKr-DwGW4qokh3asyDcdaggVuOE6 ABRAHAM MOON: https://www.moons.co.uk/interiors/ _____ CONTENTS OF THIS VIDEO: 0:00 The School Is About to Begin ☺️ (Intro) 0:43 Inside the Old Schoolhouse – Ground Floor Tour 07:54 Details & Atmosphere 08:54 Upper Floor Tour 21:11 The Cloakroom and the Bell 🛎 (with Jörg) 23:38 Quiet Moments & Atmosphere 25:08 Exploring Bamburgh Castle on the Northumberland Coast 30:35 Tea Time Back at the Cottage ☕ 32:53 A Warm Goodbye from Northumberland _____ MUSIC: The music in our videos is from Musicbed, Epidemic Sound & Artlist, royalty free music sharing sites which you have to pay a monthly fee to be able to access: https://www.musicbed.com, https://www.epidemicsound.com/ & https://artlist.io/ _____ CONNECT WITH US: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/kirstenandjoerg/ PINTEREST: https://uk.pinterest.com/kirsten_wick/ FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/kirstenandjoerg TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@kirstenandjoerg #englishcottage #englishcountryside #cottagelife #northumberland #englishhome
