Review for: Join-In Tour

I wasn’t able to finish all the seasons of Downton Abbey but it felt really special to visit Highclere Castle, especially when our guide, Katherine, played the opening theme as our car drove into view of the castle. It felt so surreal that I was able to be on the filming location as the characters I saw in the drama. It was lovely to see the farm animals at Cogges Manor Farm. It was the first time I’ve ever seen a live turkey. The guide also explained to us how thatched roofs are made. There were quite a number cottages and houses with thatched roofs which were interesting to see.
