The Big Trip - Day 3 - Biltmore

North Carolina - my 45th State



Biltmore House, historic home of George Vanderbilt
(Very like Chatsworth in terms of the tour, restaurants, shops, farm, etc)






(No photos were allowed in the house - I did the general audio narration tour and the behind-the-scenes Butler's Tour)






The servants' courtyard



Restaurant area in the stables (the booths in the main restaurant were in the stable stalls)






Views from the terrace





Heading down to the gardens




The Walled Garden




Rose Garden


The Conservatory


















View from the top of the lawn



Inside the Winery - one of George Vanderbilt's 1913 touring cars


Having a tour of the winery in nearby Antler Hill Village on the estate

The farm





The Children's Maze


A night at Bon Paul & Sharky's Hostel in nearby Asheville
