Longleat VIP & Bristol
Sunday 14 March 2010
A VIP tour of Longleat House as never seen before! This beautiful stately home, dating back to 1580, is set within 900 acres of landscaped parkland, & this is surrounded by a further 8000 acres of woodland, lakes & parkland.
With Buzzlines Travel, you will be greeted at the front door by your guide, with whom you will embark on a private guided tour of the house. After your 1½ hour VIP tour, your guide
will join you in Lord Bath’s private and colourful Banqueting Suite for a light lunch of
winter vegetable soup & bread, apple crumble & custard, followed by tea & coffee. Peek
behind doors usually closed to the public, revealing never seen before secrets of the
house. Meet behind-the-scenes staff & learn how such an enormous house is run.
Uncover past scandals of the house – such as how the scandalous murder of ‘Tom of Ten
Thousand’ saved Longleat from ruin. Visit the 19th century Orangery – where you’ll be
afforded terrific views of the house. Discover how the family acquired its wealth & how
the BBC programme ‘Animal Park’ turned Longleat into one of the biggest tourist attractions in the country …and much, much more.
