teseo Posted June 11 #1 Share Posted June 11 I am interested in going to the Mapperton Estate from the Portland cruise port. Is anyone aware of an excursion available from Portland? I looked online, but couldn’t find anything. I did reach out to a tour company for possibly a half day tour cost a few weeks ago and never received a response.

Luckynana Posted July 7 #2 Share Posted July 7 Are you referring to the Mapperton Estate from the "Ladies of London" shown on Peacock channel? Or do I have the name of the Estate wrong?🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would appear that the Viscount Hinchingbrooke, who is the Earl's son, married an American lady who appeared on the show you mention and various other so-called reality shows in the States, none of which I have heard of previously! The Viscount and Viscountess manage the estate. [And this now ranks as the most English answer I have written on CC!] OP - I fear a private tour (or a car there and back) will be your only option, but I am not familiar with operators in that part of the country, I'm afraid.
