Cabana Presents: Portrait of a Home with Barbara Cartland
A style icon, a wit, a record-winningly prolific author, Dame Barbara Cartland was truly one-of-a-kind. In this beautiful video, shot by Luca Cepparo for Cabana and narrated by Barbara Cartland's granddaughter, Charlotte di Carcaci, Cabana explores the enchanting memory-filled house that Barbara called home for more than 50 years.

Best bedroom ever.
I remember seeing her quite often at Claridge's, and sometimes at Hardy Amies. If I remember correctly her car number plate was BC29, because, she said, no lady was ever older than 29.
That was cool.
Thank you. This was lovely to watch and hear about a wonderful lady 🌺
Wonderful
What a WONDERFUL video! The house and its contents look amazing. I bought a copy of the magazine too...beautiful! Thank you :)
Loved it. Thank you for posting
A weaver of fantastic dreamy tales. Though sometimes, her story-plots were flimsier than a spider's web ! Yet, over all, she was brilliant, fantastic. Very charming writer.
Fascinating, thank you for these insights.
My Idol
Absolutely fascinating! Congratulations!
Fantastic place , Dame Barbara Cartland home 🤩 I have many of her beautiful books ! Thank you for wonderful video

As an author she was prolific. The subjects are rather recycled soft porn for hetero women. Cartland was quite a character. Her style was a hilarious mix of English country house and candy clown pinkdom. Her look was pure drag. A great successful life.
A very grand house. I rather like it! Thank you for the video.
Fascinating. Im not sure if she is a person Id want to know, but she certainly lived her life to the fullest.
Two people I greatly admire, Barbara and Oprah, very inspiring and accomplished personas.
I think her granddaughter did a terrific job encapsulating the personality of Dame Barbara
I started reading Barbara Cartland historical romances, when I was in 6th grade; my grandmother had them at her home and would give them to me after she had read them. I loved the beauty, the hope, the history, the ball gowns! I was probably in 8th grade when I realized the meaning of her usual last line: "...and they were one..." . Your beautiful and honest video is a wonderful tribute to Ms. Cartland and my childhood memories. Thank you!

They seemed very hot for a young teen in the 60’s ! 😂
Remarkable Woman. I used to love reading her romance novels ❤. She certainly led an interesting life. I like her a million times more than Oprah
Oh, how wonderful that you did such a lovely piece on this grande dame. I've read probably 90% of all the books she ever wrote. I loved her style, Barbara Cartland was indeed one of a kind. I was much taken with the statement at the end that her energy was akin to Oprah's energy field. Interesting observation. Both were/are driven to work and succeed and have become inspirational icons for women.

Oprah is a racist celebrity . There is no comparison.
Thank you so much for this , I grew up in the 1950’s Ireland, I loved books from an early age I knew of Dame Barbara Cartland , I only read non fiction , so I had no interest in her Romantic Novels I was happy this morning to find this lovely video, thanks so much for the enlightenment.

Oprah has lost all credibility since ‘that’ interview
Was this rain spencer princess dianas step mothers mother my mother loved her mills and boons books
My apologies to the late Barbara Cartland for the comparison to Oprah.
She sort of went for the Marchessa Casati school of appearance which is if you can no longer look beautiful just go freaking all out mad with your appearance. Basically a drag queen ethos which Raine Spencer and Joan Collins also went for. I miss the 80s.
Barbara cartland granddaughter forgot to mention Princess Diana energy field along with Oprah Winfrey
Oprah!?! Dear me. No comparison to Barbara Cartland. Oprah!!! Indeed!
my home would stolen from me who give me a new one please? true without any crime inside
Really enjoyed this video, however the last fifteen seconds laughable. I hold Dame Barbara in much higher regards. Our "French" diction instructor had us read sections of her books out loud so that we wouldn't stumble when we came to foreign word pronunciations.

Hearing it, I actually laughed out loud; thank goodness I wasn't drinking something, else it would have spewed comically from my mouth, like in the movies. There must be an ulterior motive for making this hideous comparison. There's nothing special or interesting about OW; what you see is what you get, which isn't much -- the most banal talentless individual to ever make it in the big time.
Oprah? 😄

It does seem a bit random...I was expecting her to say Liberace!
Oprah. Seriously, Oprah . Dreadful
Absolutely awful. Too much money and so little taste.
