American Style Barn is a visually distinctive film location set in a secluded valley on the edge of the M25, offering exceptional rural backdrops within easy reach of London. Designed in the style of a traditional American threshing barn, this striking black timber structure provides a rare opportunity for productions seeking an authentic American countryside double within the UK. The barn is part of a large private estate that includes a white farmhouse, a characterful lodge, a heritage Oast house, and multiple outbuildings - making it ideal for shoots requiring a variety of rural and rustic settings in one location. The surrounding working farmland, complete with a traditional Kentish farmyard, delivers a versatile and highly cinematic environment.
