Mr Darcy’s House

Spent yesterday at Lyme Park in Cheshire. If you were ever a fan of the BBC version of Pride and Prejudice, you will know it as Pemberly. This is the spot for the delicious scene where Mr Darcy takes a swim and then unexpectedly runs into Miss Elizabeth Bennett after he emerges from the water.

My 38th National Trust property. It was a super day.

I love this wonderful capture Casa, you look like the owner making a presentation :-)

[Issi Bannerman]

A beautiful capture and a great count of NT properties now!

Nearly 2/3 done!! Love that huge grin.

[Hazel]

Well done! My cousin is making a tally of NT properties visited - has them all on a spreadsheet with details!.

[Kathy A]

Look at you showing off this magnificent home with its amazing reflection

[Joan Robillard]

Lovely

[Peter Dulis]

LOL - looks a bit like a jail :)

[Casablanca]

@pdulis Seriously?? What kind of jails do you have in Canada?? Huge and luxurious old stately home, two lakes, deer park and many acres of parkland and gardens. Methinks I should commit a crime in Canada if anywhere if I get sent to a house like this lol

[Paul J]

My wife would know this scene well.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

This looks great.

[Michelle]

What a lovely building - added to my ever growing list of places to visit!

[Kathy]

And we all love Mr. Darcy (especially as played by Colin Firth).

[Taffy]

I love this image -- and the scene it reminds us of! What a great place to be able to visit!

[Carole Sandford]

You didn’t manage to run in to Mr Darcy on this visit then?
Beautiful building!

[Casablanca]

@carole_sandford I wish! LOL Of course, I brought my own in the shape of my Hubby :)

[Rob Z]

This looks like a beauty to add to your list.

[GaryW]

What a wonderful way to document your adventures! How many National Trust properties are there?

[Phil Howcroft]

you look very much the lady of the manor Casa'

[Casablanca]

@thewatersphotos more than 500 plus a lot of natural outdoor sites too. My goal was 60 this year in honour of my 60th birthday.

[GaryW]

@casablanca Aha! Hope you accomplish your goal! Love seeing the properties here!

[Shutterbug]

I love those BBC shows that we see on our PBS station. You are lucky to be able to visit the locations.

[KV]

Love that big smile! Beautiful building & great reflection.

[Chris Cook]

I've not seen the show but I love the shot. I would love to shoot some of those grand old palaces..

[Paula Fontanini]

What a magnificent manor and you do kind of look like a realtor showing the property!! :)
