  • I went for the first time to Highgrove House, near Tetbury in Gloucestershire, England, to experience the famous Christmas Lunch in the Orchard Tea Room a year ago. It was a wonderful afternoon and I fell in love with the King's home that day. Since then I've been back several times, and was looking forward to Xmas lunch 2023! Did it match my expectations? Watch the video and see for yourself! We were sitting just in front of King Charles' favourite chair in the Orchard Room, and he was there 48 hours before us, to celebrate his 75th birthday.

    Truly captivating from beginning to end! Highgrove House & Estate, along wit the cozy Restaurant is very beautiful. It was wonderful to share this delightful place with you again this year at Christmas. The Christmas decor in the Restaurant is enchanting & your dinners looked delicious! The whole ambience there is charming & very special! Including the King's wonderful paintings of such lovely landscapes & especially, those of the Royal family. Along with the warm & cozy fireplace, magical Christmas trees & decorations. I also really loved the Photo of the King holding his one grand baby. HM looks so thrilled to be holding the wee child in his arms. It is so sweet! This Photo alone shows what a tender & loving heart the King has. Delightful! The Christmas music you chose here is also very beautiful & touching. Even the drive home was magical, with the warm glow of the evening lights & the soft snow falling. Thank you for sharing this delightful Christmas experience at wonderful Highgrove. Christmas blessings to you both!

      Your beautifully detailed and heartfelt comment truly warms my heart Annie! I'm thrilled that you found the experience of the Orchard Tea Room in Highgrove during Christmas so enchanting and captivating. Yes, the decorations, the ambiance, and the artwork truly make it a charming and delightful place, don't they? And I completely agree, those paintings, especially of the Royal family, hold such a special sentiment.✨ So true, that photo of the King with his grandchild shows a side of him that's so full of warmth and love.
      I'm so glad you enjoyed the Christmas music too. Thank you so much for your lovely wishes and for sharing in this delightful Christmas experience at Highgrove with me. Sending you Christmas and warm wishes for a joyful holiday season filled with love and magical moments! 🎄✨❤️

Thank you for letting me know. 🤗It's such a magical place, isn't it?💥As for the dress, I'm delighted you liked it! I got it from a vintage clothing stall at an antiques centre. It caught my eye because of its festive charm, perfect for the holiday season. I'm glad you found it fitting too! Next time maybe I should try to buy my outfits from more accessible sources? This might make it easier for my lovely viewers to buy these should they be inspired by them? 😉 Just in case you liked my husband's outfit too, the trousers and top are from H&M from this season. I thought it'd be great for both of us to wear matching colours on the day. 😊

    Going through strenuous chemotherapy, so had this on my list to catch up on your adventures and here I am doing just that! You are a handsome couple in your winter whites and so gracious to take us along with you. The decorations are beautiful, yet not overwhelming. The fire in the fireplace has been beautifully laid. I so well recall your Christmas lunch there last year. Thanks for letting us see the menu. The half-Scot seems so happily companionable on these trips. Was butternut squash soup to be part of the appetizer? The cranberry sauce looked spectacular. You entree was beautiful and it all looked so hot and fresh. Good of the staffers to help film. Do they allow doggy bags to take leftovers home, so food isn't wasted and it can be enjoyed as another small meal or late night snack? Leave home early with little breakfast and be ready when you arrive for such a feast. They do delightful plating, presentations and with goodly amounts to enjoy, but neither ridiculously sparse nor ostentatious servings. The portraits of family make it all cozier. Are the Christmas trees from local growers or does he choose artificial for the fire safety?

      Thank you so much for joining us on our adventures Philippa, especially during such a challenging time. We're sorry to hear about your health problems. Your amazing spirit still shines through in your comment despite the strenuous treatment. Thank you for letting us know. To be honest, I had felt your absence in the comments section of my later videos as I always look forward to your information and observations which are so insightful, with such interesting perspectives. (Of course, you don't have to comment but I love it when you do 😊) Regarding your comment, we're thrilled you enjoyed our winter escapades. The fire was indeed meticulously prepared for that cosy ambiance we adore. And yes, the half-Scot is a fantastic companion on our journeys! I'm so lucky :o) BTW, thank you for your lovely compliment on our winter white attires on the day :o) Regarding the menu, the butternut squash soup was indeed one of the choices as part of the appetizers, and the cranberry sauce was a hit! As for leftovers, they graciously allow doggy bags to ensure nothing goes to waste, perfect for another meal or a late-night snack. The Christmas tree might be locally sourced but I'm not sure as I didn't think to ask because of all the excitement of the Xmas lunch on the day, etc. BTW, I'm reading The Secret life of Bletchley Park slowly but surely with the busyness that this festive season brings :o) I'm learning so much about the war and how we were saved by these clever people, etc. Who knows, maybe I'll be visiting Bletchley Park in the new year? :o) Thanks again Philippa and best wishes for Christmas and the New Year. 💥💖💖🧡🧡💗💗✨✨💓💓💓💓🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄💖💖
