Lady Almina and The Real Downton Abbey.
Highclere wasn't meant to be open on that day, but there must have been a change in plans and they added a limited opening day at GBP$100 a ticket. Rather expensive but given the significant travel time from Australia I was just pleased to have the option.
The grounds were beautiful too and well worth a stroll.
