I don’t know about you, but I am addicted to Downton Abbey! What an amazing production it has been. The clothes, the actors, the story line and last but not least, the incredibly beautiful manor home. It just doesn’t get any better! Or does it?
YES it does! Join us on this spectacular tour to England and visit Highclere (Downton Abbey) and the village of Bampton, where many of the scenes are shot. Enjoy a private tour of Highclere Manor lasting 2 hours with no roped off areas. You get to see the State Rooms and bedrooms seen on the show as well as the Egyptian Exhibit* all by yourselves, and then you can browse the gift shop to your heart’s content.
Other stops include: Abbey House Gardens, the stunning creation of the Naked Gardeners, Ian and Barbara Pollard; the home and outstanding private garden of the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall; the superb National Arboretum at Westonbirt; Highgrove Manor; and the only Rococo garden (1720-1760) in the UK as seen through the eyes of the Head Gardener at the Painswick Rococo Garden.
