How to visit Downton Abbey and (almost) have tea with Lady Violet
TU DU TU DU DU TUM TUM TUM TUM. Or something like that. Welcome to Downton Abbey, everyone! The Anglophile that I am is a huge fan of this period series (this surprises no one, right?) and I was very sad when it ended.
Although the drama and its plot twists were certainly entertaining, what I will miss the most is Lady Violet’s witty comebacks. I briefly considered writing a post entirely consisting of her best one-liners but I figure this wouldn’t be of much help to those of you who also want to visit Downton Abbey.
In the spirit of being helpful, I wrote down everything I learned during my Downton-themed day trip in Oxfordshire and Hampshire. Let’s dive in!
This is NOT a sponsored post – I really did go ahead and paid $250 of my own money to have this incredibly geeky Downton day. I REGRET NOTHING.
