While in Moray you may like to visit Brodie Castle which is a stunning 16th century tower house. There is a mild connection with Bonnie Prince Charlie because Alexander, 19th Brodie of Brodie, was Lord Lyon King of Arms and firmly on the side of the government forces. Although Brodie did not take an active part in the Battle of Culloden, family history tells of government troops being camped in the wood behind the castle, in an area known today as the '45 Wood. The castle features elegant interiors, an extensive art collection, and beautiful gardens. Once the ancestral home of the Brodie clan it is now managed by the National Trust for Scotland. It is a must-visit for history and nature lovers and can easily be included in your chauffeur driven tour of Scotland. See our page on www.bhctours.co.uk

Having reached Nairn on your tour then a visit to Cawdor Castle is a must. Cawdor Castle is still home to the Cawdor family to this day and has evolved over 600 years. Later additions, mainly from the 17th century, were all built in a Scottish style with slated roofs over walls and crow-stepped gables of local stone. This style gives Cawdor a strong sense of unity, and the massive, severe exterior belies an intimate interior that gives the place a surprisingly personal, friendly atmosphere. It is famed for being the 11th century home of Shakespeare’s tragic character, Macbeth. Although the 5th Earl Cawdor is quoted as saying: "I wish the Bard had never written his damned play!" There are portraits by Joshua Reynolds and furniture by Chippendale and Sheraton amongst many other treasures in this romantic castle. For more about this tour visit our website www.bhctours.co.uk

Your tour today will take you to Eilean Donan Castle which is recognised as one of the most iconic images of Scotland all over the world. Situated on an island at the point where three great sea lochs meet, and surrounded by some majestic scenery, it is little wonder that the castle is now one of the most visited and important attractions in the Scottish Highlands. Although first inhabited around the 6th century, the first fortified castle was built in the mid-13th century and stood guard over the lands of Kintail. Since then, at least four different versions of the castle have been built and re-built as the feudal history of Scotland unfolded through the centuries. Today it stands as a testament to Scotland's rich history and picturesque beauty, attracting visitors from around the globe. To find out how we can include this iconic landmark in your tour of Scotland visit our website www.bhctours.co.uk

One of the many unique sites to be seen on your bespoke tour of Great Britain with British Heritage Chauffeur Tours. This amazing construction is known as the Harringworth Viaduct. It crosses the River Welland between Harringworth in Northamptonshire and Seaton in Rutland. At 1166 km long and 82 arches, each of which has a 12 metre span, it is the longest masonry viaduct in the United Kingdom. The first brick was laid in March 1876 and it was completed in July 1878 by the 400 men who were employed to build it.

Great anticipation for the release of the third movie following the Grantham family saga, Downton Abbey 3, on 12th September. Highclere Castle has always been a firm favourite with our American guests and is the focal point of our Downton Abbey tour. The Castle, which has been the seat of the Carnarvon family since 1679, was built on an ancient site dating back 1300 years and recorded in the Domesday Book. The Castle and estate provide a fascinating insight into England’s landscape and building heritage. The present day Castle was designed in 1842 by Sir Charles Barry, the architect also responsible for building the Houses of Parliament in Westminster. The Castle’s history also includes a fascinating connection with ancient Egypt, as the 5th Earl, with Howard Carter, discovered the tomb of Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings in 1922. Highclere Castle houses an exhibition to commemorate this historic event, including some rare antiques from the 5th Earl’s earlier Egyptian excavations.
