The Christmas season is in full swing, but there's never a wrong time to seek out a Downton Abbey-themed gift for the fan who has everything. To help you out in your search, we've gathered up some of the best, most interesting, and most unique gifts for Downton Abbey fans.

The Downton Abbey Movie Gift Set

The Downton Abbey Movie Limited Edition Gift Set makes a great gift

This deluxe edition lets you relive the Downton Abbey reunion over and over while you await the sequel. It comes with both DVD and Blu-Ray, along with all kinds of DVD extras, a recipe book, and extra photos. Get it HERE

 

A Downton Abbey Filming Locations Tour

Highclere Castle, of Downton Abbey fame

High on the wishlist of almost every Downton Abbey fan is a trip to visit Highclere Castle and other Downton filming locations. Brit Movie Tours is one of the top companies offering British TV and film tours, and they offer several different Downton Abbey-focused tours. You can buy gift vouchers either for a specific tour or for the company as a whole, helping your Downton-loving friend make the trip a reality. 

 

Downton Abbey Clue

Downton Abbey Clue (or Cluedo, in the UK)

I love the style, but I think I'd have a hard time actually playing this Downton Abbey-themed Clue. I simply couldn't believe Lord Grantham or Mrs. Hughes as the murderer as long as there's a Tom Branson card in the mix. The Dowager Countess, on the other hand…

Get it HERE (or HERE, if you prefer Cluedo)

 

Downton Abbey Kitchen Towels

Downton Abbey Kitchen Towels

With their distinguished neutral palette, these Downton Abbey kitchen towels would be at home in almost any kitchen.  You can pick up a set HERE.

 

The Downton Abbey Script Book

The Downton Abbey Script Book

Sometimes, the best way to appreciate the artistry of a show is to slow things down and read the words on the page. Julian Fellowes did a remarkable job in creating the series, and his scripts have been gathered up for easy reading in a series of books. We've included the links to all of the available seasons below (later seasons don't appear to have been released in this format). 

 

Travel Tea Mug

Travel Tea Mug

We like to think that if the Crawley family were real and alive today, they wouldn't be caught dead sipping tea from a paper cup at the local Starbucks or Caffe Nero. No, if circumstances necessitated tea on the go, I like to think they'd be sipping from something classic and stylish like this porcelain tea mug with lid and infuser. They come in a variety of colours, and you can check them out HERE

 

The Downton Abbey Coloring Book

The Downton Abbey Coloring Book makes a fun gift

This high-quality coloring book includes drawings from the series, along with quotes from the show. Some of the characters do look a bit strange in drawings, but overall, it's a fun book – and great with a set of fine-tipped Sharpies. Get the coloring book HERE (and Sharpies HERE, if you need them)

 

The 1000 Piece Downton Abbey Puzzle

A great gift for Downton Abbey fans without cats…

I love a good puzzle, though it probably wouldn't end well around here. The IHBTV headquarters is home to not 1, but 4 rescued cats – all of whom enjoy batting puzzle pieces about (and one of whom would probably eat a few). Still, if you have a closed-off puzzle room or a home without cats, this is a fantastic Downton Abbey-themed gift. Get it HERE.

Alternatively, you could get this one without the pretty shot of Highclere Castle in the background.

 

Tea at Downton: Afternoon Tea Recipes from the Unofficial Guide to Downton Abbey

Tea at Downton

Though I'd never take my tea with as much milk as they've shown on the cover, I do love a good afternoon tea and I'm always thrilled to find new recipes. This one's designed to give you all the information you need to have a fun Downton Abbey afternoon tea. Get it HERE

 

The Downton Tea House Print

Downton Tea House

Nine times out of ten, a decorative item is one of the worst things you can get someone. It's incredibly presumptuous to hand someone a gift that basically says, “I'M going to choose how YOU decorate YOUR house.” That said, there are some people and situations where you can be absolutely certain they'd love what you're getting them, and this is a great piece for that kind of scenario. Friend with a dedicated Downton Abbey or tea-themed room? This could be right for them. You can get it HERE

 

3D Puzzle of Highclere Castle

Highclere Castle in 3D

If two-dimensional puzzles just aren't enough of a challenge, consider this 3D puzzle of Highclere Castle, complete with tiny little Downton Abbey characters standing in front of the main entrance. Get it HERE.

 

Ring Carson for Tea Teaspoon

Ring Carson for Tea Teaspoon

This metal-stamped vintage teaspoon is the perfect teatime accessory for any Downton Abbey fan. The creator rescues vintage silverware from antique shops, then adds a modern twist with metal stamping. Get yours HERE

 

The Downton Abbey Cocktail Book

The Downton Abbey Cocktail Book

Downton Abbey took place at the same time as the birth of cocktails, so it's only natural there should be a book of show-inspired cocktails. Because we're talking about vintage British cocktails, it's a bit heavy on the gin and champagne – but there are definitely some recipes using other drinks, too. Get it HERE

 

Downton Abbey T-Shirt

“Vulgarity is no substitute for wit” Downton Abbey T-Shirt

You can wear the Dowager Countess's wit with this fun vintage-style t-shirt. We didn't design this one, but we've ordered loads of shirts from TeePublic and if you like your t-shirts softer and thinner, opt for the tri-blend fabric. The female tees run a bit small, so order up a size if you're not totally sure. The men's/unisex ones are a more traditional fit. Get it HERE

 

The Downton Abbey Cookbook

Downton Abbey Cookbook

Curious about what the characters of Downton Abbey would have eaten? This delightful book is divided into recipes for upstairs and downstairs, offering some fun culinary insight into the lives of both the servants and the masters in early 20th century England. Get it HERE
