You may have already seen these websites, but if not they could be helpful in planning your trip: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/masterpiece/locations/highclerecastle.html http://www.highclerecastle.co.uk/ The town used is Bampton, Oxfordshire: http://www.cotswolds.info/places/bampton.shtml You might also appreciate this one. Although it is entitled "Jane Austen World", it also discusses Bampton and Downton Abbey: http://janeaustensworld.wordpress.com/2011/01/19/brampton-location-of-the-town-in-downton-abbey/
