The Berkeley Estate in Gloucestershire is one of the oldest family-owned estates in the country. At its heart lies a magnificent medieval castle in which Berkeleys have lived for more than 850 years. Its sister estate - Spetchley Park in Worcestershire is home to a nationally famous Victorian garden. There's a deer park, farms and businesses and the Berkeley Hunt can trace its hounds back to 1256.With unprecedented access to the Berkeley family and staff, this series lovingly charts a year in the life of a remarkable estate. From medieval battles in the castle grounds, through the worst floods in living memory to the traditional staff Christmas party in a great hall once used by Henry VIII, Berkeley is a unique portrait of country life.
