The weather was a little hit and miss to begin with but we really enjoyed wandering around the house, Laura and I nattering away constantly about Downton Abbey and various scenes from the TV series, while the boys trundled along behind us. By the time we got outside again to have a drink at the café and wander around the walled gardens the sun had reappeared and it was a beautiful day. The gardens were very pretty, smelled wonderful as everything was in flower and then we headed off for Sunday lunch at The Woodspeen, my favourite restaurant!
Here's a few photos from our visit to Highclere Castle

Lucky you to get tickets!I would love to visit.We stayed nearby in June on our way to Poersmouth and the ferry but couldn't even get close enough for a long range view.
ReplyDeleteIt looks a lovely place to visit. I was very much a latecomer to Downton Abbey. It was this year I started watching and loved every minute of it. x
ReplyDeleteLooks beautiful Emma, where is it? I'll have to google it.
