At Home at Highclere by Lady Carnarvon
Many recipes are little-changed to this day and Lady Carnarvon shares her commentary on their context at Highclere. Highclere works hard to steer a steady course in todays world, but the Castle was built for entertainment and pleasure, for convivial weekends.A gorgeous book with beautiful photos, and a historical document to boot-- Steve Wright, BBC Radio 2
A love letter to a stately home and its history of entertaining * Yorkshire Post *
Fiona, 8th Countess of Carnarvon, is the wife of Geordie, 8th Earl of Carnarvon.
She is an alumna of St Andrews University, a former auditor for Coopers & Lybrand accountants and created her own clothes brand in the 1990s. She and her husband and son live ‘quietly’ with seven dogs, too many horses, a brood of chickens, a pet rabbit as well as a pet sheep, a number of bee hives amongst the community of Highclere Castle today. Together, they manage a range of businesses at Highclere Castle, home of the worldwide television drama Downton Abbey.
Fascinated by the history of the people as well as the Castle at Highclere, Lady Carnarvon has written two New York Times Bestsellers: Lady Almina and the Real Downton Abbey: The Lost Legacy of Highclere (2011) and Lady Catherine and the Real Downton Abbey (2013).
