A Visit with Lady Carnarvon

of Downton Abbey's Highclere Castle

June 23, 2022

Thank you, Lady Carnarvon for an unforgettable visit! It was smashing!

We enjoyed your thoughts and insights – often delivered with charming good humor – on life at Highclere Castle, or as it is known to so many around the world, the “real Downton Abbey.” Above all, we appreciated your gracious and welcoming manner. It made everyone who interacted with you feel like an old friend!

Enjoy this fascinating interview with Lady Carnarvon conducted recently by Trudy Coxe
