The magnificent Highclere Castle (aka Downton Abbey!) opens its doors for summer visits again! π While it's not free, tickets are totally worth it for this iconic experience. Last year I got lucky with walk-in tickets, but booking online is highly recommended to avoid disappointment! ποΈπ« π Getting There: Take the train to Newbury Station, then grab a taxi right outside (about Β£30 to the castle).
