• Highclere Castle - If you’ve purchased tickets to Highclere Castle, you can spend 2-3 hours admiring the grandeur of the current residence of Lord and Lady Canarvon. You’ll explore the interior and grounds where the Grantham family lived and where much of the Downton Abbey drama unfolded.
• Bampton - Stroll through the charming village of Bampton, located on the edge of the Cotswolds. Visit St Mary’s Church, the Crawfords’ house, Village Green, and see the many filming locations of Downton Abbey in this picturesque village.

London is a fantastic city, but it can be quite busy. Why not enjoy a peaceful day in the English countryside instead, exploring The Cotswolds and beyond on a Downton Abbey-themed tour?

The tour includes a visit to the grounds and gardens of Highclere Castle, the residence of Lord and Lady Grantham, Lady Mary, and the Dowager. Please note that tickets for the castle and gardens are not included and must be purchased separately by the client.

Next, the tour explores the charming Cotswold villages and countryside that were featured in Downton Abbey, both on TV and in film. This area is truly remarkable.

Stops include shops, churches, market squares, thatched cottages, village halls, cricket grounds, and rose gardens.

Lunch options include dining in a traditional English pub, where you can enjoy fish and chips or sample some local ales. Alternatively, you might prefer a visit to a quintessentially English garden tea shop. The choice is yours, and the possibilities are endless!

In the afternoon, enjoy a drive through more countryside and villages, chauffeured by your very own Branson, before returning to your residence while listening to music of your choice.

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
