JITTERS always before an episode of @smithsonian_channel ‘An American Aristocrat’s Guide to Great Estates’ airs in the USA! But my husband always reminds me that ‘ nerves are good, it means you care.’ And I do! So I went for a dunk in the. COLD 🥶 sea and I feel much better! I can’t wait for you to head up to Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 with me again for tonight’s episode 9pm EST at the magnificent @floorscastle - this episode is also a very touching one so be sure to watch until the very end. xx Julie

GRATITUDE 🌅for this sunset and for you.
.
The past 2 months in lockdown have been exhausting. I am officially tired. And not just because of the stress that this pandemic has inflicted.
.
Over the past 2 months, we have had to furlough most of the staff here at @mapperton_estate - we have lost all visitor, wedding, cafe and shop income which all help to preserve our home - a part of England’s heritage. We have had to think of creative ways to bring in income to help conserve and preserve a 500 year old home. Trust me, it’s not easy to do and most nights have been sleepless ones.
.
My @wholeselfyoga 200 hour Teacher Training had to move to virtual teaching led by me. So far, 8 days on a screen 8am - 6pm.
.
My @smithsonian_channel TV series which premiered in the 🇺🇸 on Sunday whereby all press (over 20 TV Interviews and too many phone interviews to count) moved to Zoom and a Satellite Media Tour. Say what? I know, right.
.
Homeschooling 2 out of 4 children - with one of the other 2 submitting final essays at U of Edinburgh and the other mowing lawns and delivering food to the vulnerable (THANK YOU JACK!) - his GAP year was cancelled.
.
Spending days filming a virtual wedding tour (with me as the host) because no one can visit us now to explore the possibility of getting married here - so we go to them.
.
Rehearsing and filming weekly LIVE tours at @mapperton_estate with my in-laws the Earl and Countess of Sandwich - lucky for us, you all are now our wonderful virtual visitors.
.
and last but certainly not least (because there is so much more when your home is your business)...Filming LIVE yoga classes - almost daily as all yoga studios are closed.
.
So if you’ve read this far, thank you. But more importantly, really, THANK. YOU.
Your comments, your support, your kindness, your empathy, your motivation, your words.... have kept me going. And for that, I smile daily. So here’s a sunset for you all - who brighten my day, every day. And I hope that this photo - taken by my 13 year old @nestormontagu_photography - brightens yours too . Xx Julie

ANOTHER BLUE SKY DAY - Here at @mapperton_estate 🥰 - I don’t think we’ve seen so many days like this before in years! Even though we have no visitors, events or weddings happening for the time being - I’m thankful we have you - our virtual visitors.🙏🏻And I hope that these glimpses of The Nation’s Finest Manor House might bring a smile to your face during these unimaginable times. 😊We of course hope to open our doors again to the public one day and would love to see you here in person.

Cycling is booming now 🚲 considering the global circumstances. Staying safe is important both indoors and outdoors. I spend my time cycling often these days, and there’s nothing better than my Hovding helmet @hovdingofficial - the ideal alternative to a traditional helmet. You can get your own Hovding helmet at @velorutionlondon #hovding #ridesafefeelfree #dgtlicon #ad

HAPPY WEEKEND 🌸 from me, the wisteria and @mapperton_estate - wishing you all sweet smelling spring scents wherever you are in the world. And if I could teleport this scent to you, I really really would. Thinking of you all. xxJulie
