Experience British luxury at Villa Bridgerton, QC

- TESSA MAURICIO-ARRIOLA

NETFLIX is inviting Filipinos to experience the era of British Regency through an in-person visit to Villa Bridgerton. There’s no need to fly to Europe because Bridgerton comes to life across a wing of a beautiful old mansion in New Manila, Quezon City, until April 3.

With crystal chandelier­s lording the grand salon, dining room and the lady of the house’s chambers; butlers, valets and maids all ready to assist you; and such intricate details like a fireplace and portraits of the “ton” hung on every wall, one can well enjoy living out their Bridgerton dreams ( albeit the ranchy parts) with a quick visit.
