At 76 I thought I would never make to England (my father’s birthplace. We have a trip planned next Spring - hurrah! Josie, thank you for all the joy you have given me these last few years!
You’re so so welcome!! I hope you have a magical trip!
This is my lifelong dream, is to go to England and see Downton Abbey. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to do it because I’m disabled with my back and can’t fly so thank you very much for showing me. I’m at the age 68 that going to see things like this is really a joy, it’s really a joy at any age but I have the whole series of Downton Abbey. I even bought the book on the history.🇺🇸
Glad to have been able to give you a glimpse into such a magical place ❤❤
Come over on the Queen Mary..maybe …
Yeah! We are going on another road trip!!! Their taking us to see their King's home!!!!❤❤❤❤
I'm in similar condition..and Jo's travels take Me everywhere I long for..You aren't alone..lots of us Downton A. Fans are Josie Fans too!! Yaya too Charlie for buying a membership..and Your special Visit...ThankYou Both
Awww I’m dealing with some inflammation of discs and horrible sciatica atm..and dreams of travel are on hold. Hope you feel better to travel some day!
Charlie has really made the advent calendar an exciting event. What fun to listen to his well thought out gifts.
I'm from Spain but live in the US and I miss Europe so much!! We have so much history, so much beauty.. thank you for letting us see England through your eyes 🥰
Same! I'm from the Netherlands and living in the US now, missing Europe too 😭 so much beauty and history there
Charlie is so thoughtful. I love how he has a special gift for Josie all during Advent. The trip to High Grove sounds wonderful. I really loved the vlog today showing Highclere Castle. What fun you two are having. And we get to come along😍. Oh and I agree with Charlie, the bedroom with all the exposed beams is very cozy. Thanks for all your excellent filming. 😍😍
Oh Charlie is the real deal. All the planning and love and consideration for your likes . It’s chivalry in 2023. Just gorgeous xxx
This is inspiring me to watch the Downton Abbey series yet again.
The longer I follow Josie the more I want to live in the UK! So sweet that she lets us know about these incredible brands just so sad that I can’t order from many of them while living in Canada. But I DO love hearing about them still!!!❤❤❤❤
Your Christmas vlogs are the best and what a beautiful backdrop - The Cotswolds. I will get there one day. Merry Christmas!
I’ve been to so many of the places you are visiting now and I travel from Oregon, USA. I’d love to live in England. The architecture and history draw me there every year since 1998, sometimes twice a year. My ancestors came from England, one being the mayor and sheriff of Norwich in the 1530’s and another left England to come to America and was a signed of the Declaration of Independence. There is always a strong pull to get me across the pond every year since 1998. Love it.
Love your videos too. Thank you
Hahaha! "I would set low expectations for the clues now." Charlie made me laugh!
I think it's wonderful that Charlie puts so much effort into the advent calendar!
❤ darlings how lovely of you to take us along on your castle tour ❤ ps Charlie's facts and photographic memory are always very impressive and interesting!
It is a majestic winter wonderland that you live in!! I am so happy to watch your vlogmas videos!! I do appreciate your sharing these special moments during the busy Christmas rush!!! I cannot wait to see the gardens of Highgrove.!!!
Chatsworth House is our local treasure here in Derbyshire and well worth a visit! 🇬🇧❤️
Highclere Castle 🏰 is so beautiful... The travelling make-up bag is on my list, very convenient.
Visit the Warwick Castle (it’s more like en enormous stately home really!), I’m sure you’d love it, as well as the old Leycester hospital in Warwick (now a museum). I know you were in Warwick recently in your previous vlog and did not get a chance to see the caste, but it’s absolutely lovely inside! And the grounds around are great to explore too on a sunny day :)
Wow can’t wait to see you return and see that garden in bloom in the spring/summer - bet it looks gorgeous!
Thank you so much for taking us along to Highclere Castle!!! Amazing!!! Of course we have nothing like that in South Carolina so I'm thrilled to see the castle with you!! Loved day 18!
THIS IS SUCH A TREAT JOSIE! Thanks for taking us along. 🥰 That would be my dream Christmas gift! A visit to Downton Abbey! ❤
Oh my goodness seeing that castle with the beautiful floral arrangements and traditional furnishings was just magnificent! I am so proud to have English heritage ❤
Your house is amazing (watching the advent calendar part). Loved seeing Highclere Castle and looking forward to Highgrove House! Charlie thinks of the best gifts.
What a lovely visit to Highclere Castle! Thank you for sharing your time at the castle. It brought back great memories of watching Downton Abbey.
My gosh this was such an incredible video thank you for showing us part of your tour. Wow!! I must admit I’m starting to feel a wee bit sad that the vlogmas videos will soon be ending. This has been such a fun season, thank you Josie and Charlie for sharing with us. Merry Christmas ❤
Absolutely loving Advent Calender this year
I just love the old doors in your home. Such a beautiful place. Great vlog ❤
Your home is beautiful, it's like a maze. When you have kids, they're going to have a lot of fun exploring it (floor plan is crazy, yet looks like so much fun)
Thanks Charlie & Josie for a bit of history, very interesting, Loved Downton Abbey xx
How delightful to see Highclere!!!!❤❤❤Thank you for sharing your time there!!!! I am always so fascinated by seeing the stately homes on Keeping Up Appearances that Hyacinth loves to visit!!🤣😂😂I know that prob sounds dorky and I don't know if any of those are nearby to you but I adore seeing historic properties!!❤
What a lovely place to go! I enjoyed Downton Abby location and the town of Woodstock. It was so beautiful to see it as you drove through. Thanks Josie and Charlie ❤
Thank you! Thank you! I couldn't wait to get out of my doctor's appointment to see this vlog! It did not disappoint!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Such charming music choices in this vlog Josie! 🎶✨
Hi Josie I'm excited about this one❤
This is my FAV vlog of vlogmas!!! OMG love Downton Abbey!!!
Josie this was incredible! Truly the most beautiful home. Thank you for sharing it with us. We are enjoying the festive vlogs. I have three children so thank you for the wholesome content I can watch in front of them!
Loved this tripthank you both for the tour and history. Gorgeous CASTLE/grounds, gardens,pretty book & gifts .i must say i LIKE that Advent calender its pretty & the surp.thanks for the tips on gifting❤
Such lovely adventures Charlie chose for you! I think it’s wonderful……you’re making memories and ultimately that’s the most important thing.
Merry Christmas beautiful darling Josie I hope you Charlie and the boys have a very lovely Christmas and a very happy New year xxxx
Thank you for sharing your precious gift!
My favourite thing about the calendar, is getting to see more of your beautiful home. I’ve been watching for years and still have no idea of where we are when you show us. I can’t never get my bearings 😂💕💐🐑.
Thank you for the amazing tour of the beautiful castle! I'm so glad I discovered your channel. I have not been to the UK so I'm loving getting to see so much. You two are awesome!❤ And your sausage dogs as well. Merry Christmas Josie and Charlie 🎄
I love Downton Abbey and would love to visit some day. This is possibly my favorite video of yours: the music, the shots, the facts you shared with us. Thank you 🎉
There are so many great estates that I want to visit. I love the history of Highclere. I would love to see Chatsworth. The view where Chatsworth appears to float on the water is visually stunning. Plus, the sun catching the stone makes Chatsworth look golden. The Royal Crescent in Bath is beautiful.
I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Highclere Castle! Thank you for taking us along.
I absolutely adored this vlog. I am a huge Downton Abbey fan. I hope I get to see it in person one day❤ from Canada
Ugh looks so gorgeous!!!
❤ Thank you so much for this amazing trip! Loved it! ❤
Another great vlog too enjoy ❤❤
Oh you will adore the Christmas at Highclere book it is a wonderful comforting read. Just got it down from my bookcase to reacquaint myself with a recipe. The seville orange polenta cake is divine and truly scrumptious and moreish. I have mine topped with creme fraiche, so it becomes tangy and sweet. Mind you I was pleased to come across mine in bookshop here in UK reduced to £19.99....win win eh
Oh how wonderful 😍
Oh sorry so many comments! But Charlie it was so brilliant of you to choose places all over!! I so loved that you did that not just as gifts for Josie but gifts that included Us, her fans! 💕 thank you! 😊 it’s super smart
Such Great gifts Highclere looked amazing I went at Xmas a few years ago just magical. Can’t wait to see Highgrove my friend and I did the garden tour in the summer a few years back that was fab and something I’m sure you and Charlie would love the guide was so knowledgeable you see so much and then time in the shop and tearoom after ❤ xx
Loved the visit to Downtown Abbey ❤ what a lovely place
What a lovely day xx❤ I love Downton Abbey and watch over and over with my husband xx wish we could visit but with my husband's long term illness cannot see this happening xx❤ Have really enjoyed the tour with you and Charlie xx❤🤓💕💕💕🎅
Can you please go back to the castle garden next summer? I would love to see, if you are allowed to film, of course 😊
Charlie puts so much thought and detail into everything he does for you Josie. ❤🎄❄️
Botanist, is a great description of Charlie. He knows his facts. It pays to geek out on what seems to be unimportant factoids that you and your home have benefited from. Looks like paying attention to nonsense has paid off. Cheers to you Charlie.
I’m a firm believer that he would have a very successful podcast with his knowledge and strong attention to details. He could have once or twice a month with solo podcasts, you and Lala could be cohosts on occasion along with guests that Charlie sees fit. For example, he could interview the local farmers and discuss in larger details of them not having their meats sold in the larger stores. Nice long podcasts as well.
I grew up near Chatsworth in the Peak District and always think how much you would love the house and gardens! x
I love your relationship, you two make me laugh so often - "You're either Dobby.... or Moaning Myrtle.." lmao Ohhh Charlie
Ohhh no I’m late to Downton Abbey!! 😢 wow just wow! Also to note everytime I see your wood floors in the morning when you’re waking? I remember the shaker house my ex and I had…and all I can think of?? Boy that must be something else to heat!? Ha as my house was 4 br two stories and we made it off a pellet stove …I can’t even imagine heating your fav mmm house!
anywhoo I’m rambling about heating bills!! Merry Christmas! Ha Ho Ho Ho 🎅
Lumos! Love when you both quote Harry Potter ❤
Charlie and the climbing hydrangea 😁
This was such a lovely vlog gosh thank you for taking us to Highclere Castle it’s my dream to go there in person one day. I too am going to rewatch the series or film now.I bought that beautiful book at a gift shop here in Sydney it’s gorgeous. I can’t wait for your visit to Highgrove. Charlie you are a keeper!
As a huuuuuuge DA Fan and a devoted follower of Lady Canarvon's account on Highclere Castle it is one of my absolute dreams to one day visit this beautiful estate. Unfornately, I am German and I do not dare to drive "on the wrong side" of the street :) So thank you Josie for this wonderful vlog! I sent the link of it to all persons I know who love Down Abbey as much as I do. Wishing you, Josie & Charlie some wonderful Xmas days!
OMG! Highgrove too!!!?
Aren't you the luckiest !
We were at Highgrove a year ago, toured the gardens and had afternoon tea there, this was while the queen was still alive. Terbury is beautiful ❤
LOL- I love how you and Charlie defined a town size by how many pubs they have. I think if they have 6 pubs that's a fair size town. I wouldn't call it a village, that would have one pub, maybe. IMHO. Funny stuff either way.
Downton Abbey how exciting! Excellent content thanks. Xxxx
I smiled at your wanting to explore your country and needing to find the time. Pity me, I’m an American lots to explore. Seen a lot but there is a lot more. But you also travel internationally so no worries. Appreciate the great home tours and showing the drive and villages. Thanks
What a beautiful book you got .such a lovely down to earth couple.
Love your brown coat/jacket, Charlie! 🤎
Thank you for this ❤💚
Great vlog thanks for sharing your visit to DA loved it ❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍💯💯💯
Thanks for the trip to Downton Abbey!! I think it was much appreciated by a lot of us here!! 🙏🏻👌🏼💫But my high note was your adorable self made song to your eldest son!! ❤❤❤
Ahhh! Josie
❤🇨🇦
Last time I was England I missed this one big attraction because no one else wanted to see it except me !
I’ll be back one day to see the Cotswolds and this !
I love Highclere. Visited in 2018. Glad that you visited ❤
Wow! You have a beautiful home.❤
Love this great video. I’m crazy about “Downton Abbey” and “The Crown”, so all your content is so appealing. I’m from the states, and I’ve been to London, Newcastle and Edinburg, but I’m hoping to one day see the Cotswolds. Thank you for the dreamy content.
Happy Vlogmas day 18 thin 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄 you inspired me to visit UK next Winter .
I’m a new subscriber. One of your videos about shopping at Bicester Village came up on my recommended feed and I loved it! I subbed to Freddy as well. I have so much content to catch up on! 😎
Congratulations on your wedding! 🥂
Just watched highclere behind the scenes, that looked beautiful ❤
Ever been to Chatsworth House in Derbyshire, home of the Dukes of Devonshire. Bit of a trip for you but oh my goodness - what a house that is. Amazing history too. Happy Christmas to you and all your family. x
Another lovely day to watch Josie and her friends vlogmases 😊❤!
WOW WOW WOW!!! Thank you!
Prod-ology..😂 I like when you stop and let Char give his take on things..good balance. Magical trips
Hello!! Your house is a dream come true, it is beautiful 😘😘😘
Seeing this particular castle was very much appreciated when you're from the U.S. The Carolinas have a mansion with larger rooms you would just love!❤
I completely agree that the outside of Highclair is just as grand as in Downton Abby but that the inside is much smaller than what it appears in Downton Abby from my experience touring the place. x
Enjoyed the vlog will definitely visit Highclere in the summer. Some I would suggest to visit in the later future as they are abit far from you are ; Penshurst Place and Gardens & Hever Castle & Gardens ( Anne Boleyn childhood home) both have beautiful grounds & worth the visit ❤
Have you been to Hever castle in Kent, former home of Anne Boleyn. They have a lovely Christmas tree event each year and the rooms look so festive. Also we stayed at an old hotel recently in Sussex called BailiffsCourt. I think you would love it. We stayed in a four poster suite! That one was well situated for visits to Arundel castle and Chichester. I think spring is the best time to go or early summer as they have an outdoor heated pool, pretty gardens and it’s coastal.
Happy another day
Love the Costswalds
Stunning place to visit and such detailed history.
Great gift ideas for makeup.
Fur babies are so cute. 🐾
Thank you for sharing ❤
Josie, thank you so much for taking us to Downtown 😊 I’d love to visit myself one day.
Look after yourself, I hope you feel better soon xx
OMG DOWNTON ABBEY! (a.k.a. Highclere Castle)
I'm a HUGE fan of the show.
Thanks for showing your visit there!
Christmas in July 🎄❤️😂
You did right by Downton Abbey!!!
You guys would love Bovey castle on Dartmoor in Devon, total Downton vibes!
How is Charlie feeling now? Prayers 🙏 for great health for you both ❤
He’s fully recovered now!
Clicked harder and faster to watch this than anything before...My dream!
OMG Highclere was on my bucket list this year around this exact time but I had to postpone so I think this is definitely A sign to make it happen next year! Thanks for sharing. 💖💖💖
Oh my goodness you guys should visit Lyme Park in Cheshire! It’s a gorgeous manor house they used to film Mr Darcy’s “ Pemberley “ in the 1996 BBC series Pride & Prejudice. I visited in October last year and they even have a costume room you can go and try on period outfits then walk around the manor in them. So fun!
