TO BE ANNOUNCED

I know this app been out a while but I thought I would give it a whirl. It's not really VR. Not in the sense as what we are used to today with the oculus and all. To bad Meta has not done one with Highclere yet. I would pay good money for a interactive VR tour with perhaps some characters. The things to do would be endless! Tour gardens, have a luncheon with a character, go on a hunt, sooooo many ideas!

I do not recommend this app. There are technical problems with the video. I found nothing on this app that is not available on the Castle's website. This is basically an app that only offers basic website info.
