George Harrison's Dream Home

When i moved to Henley on Thames, I took a drive to get to know the area. I drove through the town and did a U-turn in front of some large gates. “Who lives in a house like this?” I thought. I later found out it was a Beatle. That explained it. I arrived long after George had passed. George was an incredible person. He was in the most successful band of all time. He made 15 movies that were great and he spent decades restoring Friar Park to its former glory. That’s quite good for one lifetime. I live close by and I enjoyed this video. Thank you.

Friar Park is a truly magnificent period property with extensive grounds. It must have cost George an absolute fortune to restore, & with old Victorian gothic piles like that there is continual ongoing maintenance & upkeep!

One of the greatest houses I've seen a rockstar buy. George had exquisite taste after all!

Nice; Like The Dakota Apartments in NYC, Friar Park continues to be an intriguing architectural marvel with a colorful, compelling history of occupancy to match!..

great video - i live not far from henley and this place has always intruiged me

That was great 👍 he deserved I home like that❤

Thank you for recognizing Pattie finding this home. Prior to this move, she was also instrumental in their journey into meditation and the Marireshi.

LEGENDARY ❤ Home , Rockers & Gardens❤

Thank you, some nice photos and calm, pleasant narration. That place looks wonderful. The description of how their days were sounds like my kind of scene and way of living. Now I just need to find a place like that, even if on a slightly smaller scale😉

Friar Park is also in the video of George Harrison's Ding Dong song.

Nice job, I consider myself to know a great deal about The Beatles collectively and individually, but I heard some things in this video that I did not know.

A friend/bandmate of mine-the great DJ Fontana told me that George invited him and Scotty Moore over to the “monster house” DJ called it as he waved his hands. They had a blast. DJ said that George was showing him and Scotty his guitar room & they were getting hungry. So after the last guitar George said “I have another room of guitars if you’d like to see them?” DJ said that he and Scotty yelled “No NO NO!” & they all laughed for quite a while after that. lol

Thanks for vid. It is definitely a curious and interesting Place. It would be cool to tour the place as There seems to be only a few Photos of the home

Thanks for this little visit to the house. Always wondered about it. He got it for such a low price.

Nice video thanks

Very interesting. Thank you ☮️

The song cracker box palace is not about friar park. It's a tip of the hat to Lord Buckley who called his mansion in LA cracker box palace.

Great video, keep it up!💯👍

Very interesting. At about the 5:13 mark you can see George with the same hair and beard and clothes that he wore on the Abbey Road cover.

Enjoyed the rundown! Thank you.
