The woman has lived in the castle since 1986, and has never even wiped off the dust. What the luxurious estate has become and why did she decided to live there??
British Cornelia Bailey thirty-five years ago was a beautiful, young and rich girl. In the mid-1980s, she decided to buy herself an old castle. Read More
She managed to purchase an early seventeenth-century castle for seventy-five thousand pounds. The castle houses collections of antique porcelain, antique furniture and works of art that were several hundred years old. It also has ten bedrooms.
True, Cornelia invested five times more in the renovation of the property than she paid for it. But after the restoration, tourists began to take an interest in the castle. And this is a good source of income.
As time went. Bailey was unable to arrange her personal life. Therefore, the woman began to become depressed. At first she had several housekeepers. But then she fired everyone and began to live in the castle as a hermit.
So thirty-three years passed. During this time, the castle fell into disrepair again. The architectural monument was gradually destroyed. Cornelia herself did not look the best.
Concerned residents of surrounding villages turned to British television for help. There is a program here in which old houses and apartments are put in order. Its participants also took on Bailey’s house.
By the way, Cornelia turned out to be a lady with character. She didn’t refuse help. But I wanted the cleaning to be done only with water and rags. The woman was afraid that the chemicals would damage the interior.
Only with great difficulty were they able to explain to her that thirty years of dust cannot be removed so easily. Fortunately, the mistress of the castle accepted the arguments.
It took several days to clean the castle. Now everything there shines like new.
However, whether Bailey will maintain all this purity is a big question. After all, she herself had not taken a shower or bath for several years. What can we say about cleaning a big castle?
