This is a wonderful glance into the storied past of the British nobles. The grounds are lovely and peaceful (if you go during non- peak season). I found it to be a lovely way to relax after a long trip from California the day before. Of course for those who are looking to say their respects to Princess Diana you... More

We had a great time here and even met the current Earl himself! The artwork is world class, the new works sit happily with the old. Staff are friendly and know their rooms. Very helpful to answer any questions. The stables have been turned into the Diana Museum which was tastefully done. The food in the stables is excellent and... More

My daughters and I took a train from Watford with no trouble.(first train trip for us) but the bus to Althorpe never came by so we took a taxi which cost around 20 pounds....enjoyed the beautiful countryside for our...

This was our second visit to Althorp, as the last time we were there we never had time to go through the manor. I still think it is somewhere I would go back to again as it is a wonderful tribute to the wonderful Diana. The great thing about Althorp is that you can actually imagine it as a housethat... More

Attended a good friend's 50th at Althorp. About 90 couples drank, dined and danced the night away in this wonderful house. All appeared to have been left in home mode except for two tables of 100 in the Picture Gallery and a full blown night club downstairs! The staff could not have been more friendly and welcoming and they even... More

Met friends at Althorp Estate Monday bank holiday I have been several times before and was looking forward to being able to see some upstairs rooms as they were not open to the public on past visits. As always I enjoyed visiting the house and was a bonus to go upstairs to see inside bedrooms was truly memorable and each... More

This was our second visit to Althorp my wife being a great supporter of Diana and her works. This is both a wonderful stately house and memorial for Diana. It is quite expensive to to take advantage of the full access and audio tour but it is worth it. The narration on the audio is by the current Earl Spencer... More
