  • Great Podcast

    I adore this podcast. I love all the guests. My favorite part is when you tell us what part of the estate you are sitting at I can envision what you are looking at. I am visiting Highclere Castle this summer.

  • Nice podcast but has flaws

    This is a lovely podcast, with interesting guests, however after listening to the most recent few episodes I’d like to feedback that I feel Lady Carnarvon tends to interrupt her guests quite a lot.

I particularly love the episodes on which the staff of the castle are interviewed, but there hasn’t been a single episode I didn’t enjoy yet. Sometimes the sound isn’t perfect, although, personally, I much prefer knowing exactly which room or what part of the gardens the episode was recorded in than having studio-worthy sound — it adds a bit more authenticity and fun to this already wonderful podcast.
