Nancy and Jim Post Card Bellman Dorchester It’s a fact!

” And we’ll never be royals (royals)
It don’t run in our blood
That kind of lux just ain’t for us, we crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler (ruler)
You can call me queen bee
And baby I’ll rule, I’ll rule, I’ll rule, I’ll rule
Let me live that fantasy.” Lorde

In 1931 it became known as a haunt of numerous writers and poets. To mention but a few, Cecil Day-Lewis, Somerset Maugham and painter Sir Alfred Munnings.

The Dorchester’s Heralded History… some footnotes

During World War II due the strength of its construction, the Dorchester became known as one of the safest buildings and as a result a host of political and military luminaries chose it as their London residence. Queen Elizabeth II attended the Dorchester when she was a princess on the day prior to the announcement of her engagement to Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh on 10 July 1947.

It’s Gosford Park disclosed in the most inviting of ways. From the moment you enter the Dorchester you are treated like royalty whether you like it or not. It’s more than just best of service, food, linens, and gaiety . Its about the personal detail that welcomes your every step. From the hallways leading to your suite and the internal feeling of well being once you open that door and discover your own exclusive privacy, you become enveloped within the walls and confines of this historic property. And you discover its magical history and YOU get to live it!” Nancy Chuda

Our mission was to pinpoint and curate every waking moment. To truly live it… if for only once in our lives. To know that countless hands behind the scenes would rival Downton Abbey’s imitative masterpiece television series and that Julian Fellowes must have acquired this fine taste for living even knowing that those that have could not have gotten had it not been for those who had not.
