"I am so excited to be doing this new series with the BBC -- I have always had an enquiring mind, so I know I will be inspired by the great houses we visit," Berry said in a statement.

"This series will be a real treat for BBC One viewers to go behind the scenes with Mary Berry and explore Britain's great houses through her love of cooking," added Charlotte Moore, the BBC's director of content.

Berry announced in September she would not be staying with "The Great British Bake Off" series when it switched from the BBC to Channel 4.
