Inside: Grand Interiors with Authentic Period Detail
The State Floor of the house is a treasure trove of 18th-century grandeur, with richly decorated spaces that include:
Ornate drawing rooms and state bedrooms
Grand sweeping gallery ideal for tracking shots
Period-accurate libraries and dressing rooms
Original Georgian kitchen and servants' quarters
These settings are perfect for filming period dramas, heritage documentaries or scenes requiring high-end, historically accurate detail.
Below Stairs: Grit and Contrast
The contrast between upstairs opulence and the raw, working life below stairs is perfect for telling stories that span across classes or eras. The servants' corridors, original kitchens and work areas are preserved with care, providing authentic backdrops rarely found in modern properties.
Outside: 4,000 Acres of Filming Potential
Beyond the house, the estate spans over 4,000 acres, offering a wide variety of cinematic backdrops:
Formal gardens, a traditional Walled Garden, and a tranquil lake
Rolling parkland, ancient woodlands, and hidden follies
Derelict buildings, winding tracks, and a 14th-century ruined castle
This diversity allows productions to create multiple locations without moving site – from historical to rustic, luxurious to wild.
Featured in Range Rover’s Latest Ad Campaign
