More about this scene

The ancient village of Castle Combe is now famous for its motor racing circuit, but it still retains its old-world charm. The setting of the 1664 Manor House is stunningly beautiful, as we can see here. The house was given a new wing in 1873, and is said to have been Victorianised.
