North Yorkshire's film-star castle set to earn its keep by hosting paying guests
Briefly

Castle Howard, a historically significant estate in North Yorkshire, is exploring the introduction of luxury hospitality packages next year following a major restoration project. This initiative would allow guests to stay overnight in its lavish rooms, complete with Canaletto paintings and fine china. The estate, famous for its appearances in films and television shows like 'Bridgerton' and 'Brideshead Revisited', aims to remain vibrant and profitable. Custodians highlight the need for constant funding to restore and maintain the estate, promoting a vision of Castle Howard as a 'living house' rather than merely a museum.
The custodians of Castle Howard are considering high-end hospitality packages to offer guests the chance to stay in this historic 18th-century house.
Nicholas Howard states, 'We've always referred to this as a living house...you've got to make it a living house. And that involves having people in it.'
