Description
Highclere Castle is a country house in the Jacobean style, with a park designed by Capability Brown. The 5,000-acre estate is in Hampshire, England, United Kingdom, about 5 miles south of Newbury, Berkshire. It is the country seat of the Earl of Carnarvon, a branch of the Anglo-Welsh Herbert family. The architecture is reminiscent of the Houses of Parliament in London. This is the back of the house, facing South, across a flower meadow. Popular TV show Downton Abbey was largely filmed here and the tour of the castle rooms takes you into many rooms used in the series.
