Country photoshoot locations

Country house photo locations we know you will love!

Locations for photoshoots outside of London offer something a little different. Many of our Country House photoshoot locations and photoshoot spaces provide more significant internal space, expansive external spaces and a variety of special features such as swimming pools, manicured gardens and outbuildings. Our handpicked portfolio of country houses includes photoshoot properties from different architectural house styles – Georgian style houses, Victorian style houses, Edwardian style houses, as well as modern, newly built houses.

We offer inspiring Country House photoshoot properties across the UK, in a variety of locations including the Home Counties, East Anglia, Wales and Somerset. Many are within a 2.5 hour travel radius of London.

Country house photoshoot locations

The UK, with our diverse landscapes and timeless beauty, is home to some of the most stunning country photoshoot locations. Whether you want to capture the charm of the countryside or the elegant architecture of period properties, our selection of country locations has something that is perfect for you.

Cotswold Barn embodies the essence of country living, with its charming honey-coloured stone exterior and bright open plan indoor spaces, inviting fireplace and beautiful gardens. Completing this idyllic setting is the outdoor swimming pool and pool house. Additional locations featuring swimming pools and providing equally perfect backdrops include Church Road, Botley House and Oxfordshire House.

When it comes to inspiring architecture, we have something for all tastes and visions. The Bugle in Southampton is a prominent Grade II listed Victorian townhouse on the seafront with ground floor ballroom, marble hallway and exciting period details. On the other end of the scale with potential both inside and out we have The Elms in West Sussex, a remarkable silvered timber-clad eco house boasting beautiful landscaped outdoor space and natural swimming pool. Inside the house is an impressive full height atrium area with carved staircase bathed in natural light.

Country house film and photo shoot locations

Offering grandeur and charm to all genres, our country house film locations across the UK present a diverse range of settings to bring any story to life, the unique features add a natural depth to the stories they help to tell. From exposed brick walls and crackling fireplaces to moody atmospheres and luring hallways, country locations have long been a staple in the cinematic world.

The often-secluded nature of a country house ensures that in addition to beautiful indoor spaces, the outside scenes are equally captivating with picturesque views and a sense of tranquillity. For a film location with beautiful, manicured gardens be sure to check out locations such as The Rectory in Lincolnshire or The Welsh House. If you’re seeking a blend of modern country living with a picture-perfect setting, Hasting House in East Sussex has far reaching countryside views.

We love the elegance country film locations exude and the nods to history that are hard to recreate. Trenoweth House in Cornwall is a Gothic-style Victorian former vicarage with cobbled floor, stone walls and vaulted ceilings set in 4 acres of beautiful grounds. If its romance you are looking for, Thurning Hall in Norfolk is an 18th Century Georgian hall nestled in stunning grounds and its own lake, offering endless potential for both interior and exterior shots.
