Dear lovely friends!
On Monday, Stately opens its doors to everyone! But…before it does, I wanted to send you a little special edition, because there are 48 hours between now and then that I’d love for you to have.
If you’re not already inside as one of our Founding members, this is your last chance to come in early!

First through the door
When you add your name to the Stately join list, you don’t have to wait for Monday with everyone else! We’ll send you an email on Saturday morning with the link to come inside, which means you’ll be settling in a full 2 days before the doors open to the public.
It takes a moment: just your name and your email address, and that’s it.

And your first 7 days are free
Whichever tier you choose, your first 7 days are totally free! So not only do you get in before everyone else, you also get a whole week to wander the house, explore the library, and meet everyone before you pay a thing.
Tiers start at $9 a month for Resident and go all the way up to the Inner Circle.

What’s waiting inside
Stately is the new home for everything we make. The complete American Countess library is there, ad-free and early, alongside Mapperton Live, films from the great houses, royal history, and my writing on Alberta and the Gilded Age heiresses of her era.
There are rooms for the period dramas, too, with channels for Downton Abbey, The Buccaneers, The Crown, and The Gilded Age, and a Salon for fashion, etiquette, food, art, and literature.

The friendships are the best part
Stately isn’t somewhere you visit on your own. The boards are open all day, every day, and our Founding members are already planning trips together, swapping recommendations, and staying up far too late talking about how a series ended.
They’ve been very kind about it, too.

Your 48 hours, step by step
Now: add your name and email address to the join list.
Saturday morning: look out for an email from Stately Club with your link inside. It’ll come from an address you haven’t had mail from before, so do check your spam and promotions folders.
Choose your tier: pick the one that suits you, and your first 7 days are free.
Monday: the doors open to everyone else, and you’ll already be at home.
If you’d like to see everything Stately offers before you decide, the full tour is here:

Already one of our Founding members?
If you’re already in Stately there’s there’s nothing you need to do.
If you’re a Patron in active payment in Mapperton Live or American Countess (Countess of Sandwich Society) but haven’t been moved to Stately yet, email hello@stately.club so that we can sort you out.
Thank you for being the very first through the door!

This has been such a long time in the making, and we can’t wait to welcome you in. Having you there from the very first weekend would mean the world to us.
With love and gratitude,
Julie and Luke x
