Autumn

While the estate is closed for a period of mourning, Nick and George take time out to inspect the family mausoleum; the largest burial tomb in Northern Europe requiring £15million of renovation.

Christmas at Castle Howard
The estate's fortunes hinge on a successful Christmas season, which is always a financial gamble.
