🎬 Step inside the world of "The Diplomat" with this special, limited-time tour at the Main House at Planting Fields!In early 2025, Planting Fields served as the backdrop for The Diplomat’s Season 3 finale (episode eight). Transformed into a 16th-century English manor inspired by Chequers, the Main House became the perfect stand-in for the Prime Minister’s country residence. 🏰✨
This immersive experience is divided into two parts:
📚 History Unveiled: Discover the rich story and architecture of the Main House.
🎥 Hollywood Revealed: Go behind the scenes to see how the production team created a convincing cinematic version of Chequers while preserving the character and integrity of this historic estate.
Whether you’re a devoted fan of The Diplomat, brand new to the series, or just love Planting Fields, this tour is a must-see. And don’t worry—there are no spoilers… though you may walk out eager to binge the show! 😉📺
