SUNDAY, JUNE 11TH                  DOWNTON ABBEY FOX HUNT

Tally ho!  Fans of Downton Abbey will recall the fox hunt scenes during the ser ies, which featured this sport steeped in history and tradition that became associated with wealth and social standing. Our Downton Abbey Fox Hunt will provide the thrill of watching the horses galloping across the picturesque meadows of Chase Farm, with properly outfitted riders demonstrating remarkable horsemanship and etiquette, teamed with specially-trained hounds who chase only a fox scent, not actual foxes.   A brief lecture about the sport and a lavish picnic luncheon, in the style of Downton Abbey, will be held under the tent before the hunt begins.
