We enjoyed our visit to Highclere even if there is limited viewing, understandable as this is an occupied home. Though hurried along on a rainy day, we gained insight into filming location for the TV series we enjoy. This estate is worth a visit and near Stonehenge as well. We hope you thrive on!

I have been here on several occasions, once was an armed forces veterans day, where i met the cast of Downton Abbey , it is a lovely day out especially in the summer as so much more to see in the garden and the abbey itself is true to form just as you see it on the TV, lots to see and read about, the cafe is lovely too, bit hectic when it is busy but i still found the quality of the food very good, i would say go and visit the entrance price is reasonable. could be slightly lower depending on the time of year or weather as difficult to look around all the grounds in the bad weather. i would still recommend

Taken as a birthday treat by daughter my being a fan of "Downton Abbey". Well worth the visit to this beautiful castle, which also puts the filming background into perspective. Great grounds to walk around and not too crowded? Was treated to an afternoon cream tea which although delicious was accompanied by wasps which was uncomfortable. There was obviously a nest nearby the cafeteria.

We booked on line and were unsure what we would find. What we found was a "house" that defies belief for grandeur and status. The staff were friendly view to die for and appointments amazing. The Egyptian museum in the basement was worth the visit on its own making an almost 2 for 1 deal . Highly recommend

I'm a huge fan of Downton Abbey. I also love the Hallmark Hall of Fame made for TV movie of The Secret Garden from the 80s. When I was planning our trip, I made every effort to get tickets to the castle. I learned that the summer tickets go on sale the first week of February and during the summer, they are only open part of the week. I bought tickets the day the went on sale for a morning timed entry. We took the train from London but after getting off the train, we had to take a cab with was 25 GBP each way "because it was on the weekend"!!! If you can rent a car, do it! The house tour did not disappoint and I loved the "Secret Garden". Plan to spend at least half a day here-- all day if you have time.

We visited Highclere in the afternoon as we are members of Historic Houses Trust and therefore did not need pre-booked tickets. Unfortunately we were shuffled through the castle in a nose to tail line with people with no opportunity to stop and enjoy our surroundings. This spoilt the experience for us but the day was redeemed by the stunning gardens. The castle is as breath-taking as you arrive as seen in "Downton Abbey" and I am glad we visited but disappointed in the way it is organised.

The real Downton Abbey! Magnificent!Well worth the drive out from London out to the countryside.Allow ample time to not only leisurely take in the castle, but the expansive grounds and gardens absorbing the grandeur from the varying perspectives..We enjoyed tea on the lawn.The Egyptian exhibit was very interesting.

Just like Don't on Abbey, it was stunning and incredible experience. Had to wait a long time for this experience,

The atmosphere is wonderful, and the castle is breathtaking. Well worth visiting the gardens as well.

This house has some lovely features, our American friends loved the cream tea and the gardens, the library was stunning and the Egyptian relics in the cellars really worth a visit. I think it was the second Earl of Canarvan who found the tomb in Egypt having gone there for health reasons. Very interesting and we visited before it became Downton Abbey. They also have classical concerts in the grounds where you can take a picnic and enjoy a firework display at the end to the 1812 overture.
