there's a fair bit of condensation appearing with the temps going up and down as they are.
If the heating is off the house should be the same temperature as outside, so there shouldn’t be condensation inside.
To get significant condensation you also need a source for the water, which if the house is empty there shouldn’t really be.
Get a survey.

[Edit] just noticed your latest. It's 200+ years old. Normal rules probably don't apply. And you probably have a stream running through one of the walls.

Estate Agent managed let a bird into the house we are in the process of purchasing. Genuinely can't believe the amount of shit that came out of a single blackbird in 5 days considering it ate nothing.
Fortunately have a nosey mother who fancied a poke round the property and spotted it in the window.
Plus side, carpets etc. Are all getting cleaned now!
Also asked the vendor the have the heating put into service. The place is empty (tenants left) and there's a fair bit of condensation appearing with the temps going up and down as they are. They've accepted the request without Q.. don't think it was unreasonable?! A warm house is a happy house and all.
Managed to get a decent reduction on the place ahead of Thursdays likely rate rise. Suggested it'll sit there a while should they not accept the offer and with no chain either end we'd like a quick sale and be in for Xmas. First property for myself. It's an interesting process I'll say that!
