Grantham Estate is a film location of rare character and timeless appeal. The main residence, a Grade II-listed country house, features striking grey stone architecture, traditional mullioned windows, and original period details dating back to 1380. Inside, filmmakers will find a dramatic Great Hall with a vast fireplace and upper-level balcony, an ornate grand staircase, an elegant light-filled drawing room, and a formal dining room ideal for period drama or stately interior scenes.
Surrounding the house are extensive private grounds with mature trees, rolling lawns, a tranquil lake, and a beautiful stone bridge—perfect for cinematic exterior shots. A historic church sits just beyond the gardens, while original stables, yards, and on-site facilities offer space for horses, equipment, and crew. The estate’s layout and scale provide flexible options for a wide range of genres, from historical dramas to contemporary countryside settings.

Grantham Estate also offers refined on-site accommodation ideal for cast and crew during filming. The rooms within the main house are grand, light-filled, and elegantly styled with timeless décor and large feature beds. Many rooms include en-suite bathrooms and benefit from generous natural light through large traditional windows. Additional lodging is available in the nearby village at The Griffin Inn, which recently won a national award on the series Four in a Bed, ensuring comfort and convenience for extended productions.
