Like some of you, my husband and I
have been rewatching the television
series of Downton Abbey. I found one
of my favorite spots in Season Four which
happens to be the Dowager Countess
beautiful garden.
I saw on line where the house is in real
life "Byfleet Manor" in Surrey and is for
sale or at least was for $6.12 million.
sale or at least was for $6.12 million.
I took these pictures with my camera but they
are of my television set as of last night!
I was very sorry the scenes took but a couple minutes and this lovely garden
was not really shown that much.
I would have loved to see more. Too bad Isobel Crawley didn't ask a few questions and let Violet
expound on her knowledge!
We do see some lovely flowers just the same!
I wish they had sat down on that
bench for tea!
Then there was the sweet young man who wanted a job helping the garden - thank goodness!
Well, at least we know that
the Dowager liked:
Alliums, delphiniums, hydrangeas,
poppies and what else do you see?
Beautiful garden for sure. I still haven't been able to get to a theater to see the movie.
ReplyDeleteThat garden scene is among my favorites, too!
ReplyDeleteI see the beautiful flowers, and the sunshine! Not sure
ReplyDeleteof the plant names, but I enjoy that you captured the
picture to share.

Wouldn't it be lovely to have tea in that garden! I haven't seen the movie yet, but will eventually.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, my last day of freedom(Sunday) hubby and I went to see the movie---and we just simply sat back drowning in all the gorgeous details....loved your 'capture' of some of the gardens that must be magnificent!
