Bridgerton, set during England's Regency era, captivated over 82 million households in season one thanks to its scandalous and quick-witted storylines. With season two premiering on Friday 25th March 2022, now is the perfect time to take a look at all the locations where the hit Netflix show was filmed.
From wisteria-clad city mansions to breathtaking country homes, Bridgerton filming locations are far and wide across the UK, including London, Hampshire, Surrey, Bath, Buckinghamshire, and Kent.
Season two will follow Lord Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey), the oldest Bridgerton sibling, on his quest to find a suitable wife. Wanting to uphold the family name, we see Anthony strike up a courtship with Kate (Simone Ashley) as she arrives from India with her younger sister. Across Grosvenor Square, we will also see the Featheringtons welcome their newest heir and watch as Penelope (Nicola Coughlan) continues to hide her deepest secret.
Ahead of the anticipated new season, and with seasons three and four already confirmed, take a look at the various locations which have featured in Bridgerton so far...
London
The country's capital played a vital role in the successful first season. Ranger's House in Greenwich, South east London, was used for the wisteria-draped Bridgerton House exterior. The English Heritage property — which is a Georgian villa backing onto Greenwich Park — was formally home to aristocrats. In fact, in 1813, the house was inhabited by King George III's elder sister, Princess Augusta. Today it is home to art, which members of the public are allowed to visit.
In season one, this stunning property is used as the home exterior for Lady Bridgerton, her four sons (Anthony, Benedict, Colin, and Gregory), and her four daughters (Daphne, Eloise, Francesca, and Hyacinth). We see the breathtaking home make many appearances, including the family standing outside greeting guests and departing on their carriages.
Elsewhere in the city, The Reform Club also makes an appearance, being used as the 19th century gentleman's club where Anthony Bridgerton (Viscount Bridgerton) and Simon Basset, the Duke of Hastings meet in episode one. The historic private members' club was also the filming location for 2002 James Bond film Die Another Day.
Lancaster House, a stone's throw from Buckingham Palace, was used to film some of the interior shots of Queen Charlotte's parlour, hallway and bathroom. Built in 1825 for the Duke of York and Albany, the extravagant building has also appeared in The Crown as a stand-in for Buckingham Palace.
Hampton Court Palace was used for the exterior shots of Queen Charlotte's Palace in season one of Bridgerton. As the former home of Henry VIII, it's no wonder producers chose this royal-approved property.
Finally, Syon House in London was used to film some of the interiors for The Duke of Hastings' home. One of the last great houses of London, it truly is a spectacular property, both inside and out.
Buckinghamshire
The interiors of the Bridgerton house were filmed at RAF Halton — one of the UK's largest Royal Air Force stations — in Buckinghamshire. While the exterior was shot in London, it was here where the scenes featuring the grand hall, stairs, hallway, and smoking room were filmed. As well as this, it was also used to film some of the Featherington interiors and Daphne Bridgerton and the Duke of Hastings' wedding reception.
It has been used by the military since 1913, and is packed with history. As well as featuring in Bridgerton, it has also been used in Downton Abbey (featuring as Haxby Park, the home of Sir Richard Carlisle), and in the 2010 film, The King's Speech.
Bath
Over in Bath, Holburne Museum was used as Lady Danbury's breathtaking pillared home. It might look like it's hidden in the corners of upper class London, but it's actually a Grade I listed building home to fine and decorative arts. Formally known as Sydney Gardens, the property is now the city's first public art gallery, home to over 10,000 objects. It's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.
Elsewhere, another filming location in Bath is No. 1 Royal Crescent. While the Featherington home is fictionally set in Grosvenor Square, the exterior was shot on the honey-hued street.
Bristol
In Bristol, Leigh Court was a key location for filming many of the ballroom scenes. It was here where they filmed the various balls, including rooms such as the Princes Ballroom, Ingenue Ballroom, and the Crawford Ballroom. Set within 25 acres of beautiful private parkland, the Grade II listed honey-hued building is often used as a wedding venue.
Gloucestershire
The Duke of Hastings' lifelong home was filmed in three locations, one of which was Badminton House in Gloucestershire. In the heart of the Gloucestershire countryside, this charming property has a wide variety of buildings and locations, including cottages and grand manors.
Kent
The series even ventures to Kent. The city's historic Royal Dockyard Chatham made an appearance in Bridgerton, being used as the location for Simon and Will's many boxing matches. As well as featuring in Netflix's much-loved show, it has also appeared in BBC's Call the Midwife and the most recent adaptation of Sherlock Holmes featuring Benedict Cumberbatch.
Surrey and Yorkshire
Bridgerton also takes us to the 18th century landscape gardens of Painshill Park in Cobham, Surrey. Famous for its arch bridge, gothic temple and glistening lake, it was used for scenes where the Feathering family promenaded and picnicked.
Later in the series, we see Daphne and Simon get settled into married life in the fictional Clyvedon Castle, which was actually filmed at the exterior of Castle Howard in York. The stately home, famous for its honey-hued stone and grand facade, has been used as a backdrop for a number of other cinematic settings, including the 2008 film adaptations of Evelyn Waugh's novel Brideshead Revisited.
Scenes based in the grounds of their home were also filmed in the small Yorkshire village of Coneysthorpe.
Hertfordshire
Hatfield House in Hertfordshire also plays a big part in the Netflix drama, with its library, exterior, West Garden and Marble Hall all used for various scenes. As well as this, the grand estate was also used in Netflix's Rebecca and The Crown.
Elsewhere in Hertfordshire, North Mymms Park was used to film scenes featuring the nursery.
Wiltshire
The scale of the production takes us further, too. Over in Wiltshire, the magnificent Wilton House has welcomed film crews for decades thanks to its state rooms, landscaped parkland and 14,000 acres of estate. In Bridgerton, the building was used as Queen Charlotte's royal residence (most specifically for scenes in her bedroom, parlour and garden), as well as Lady Danbury's library, the dining room of Clyvedon Castle, the site of garden parties, and the Duke of Hastings' house exterior, corridors, and study.
Windsor
Windsor Great Park makes an appearance in Bridgerton, as a substitute for Battersea Fields and Rotten Row. Painshill Park in Cobham was also used to film scenes both at the Botanical Gardens and at Primrose Hill. While both parks can be visited by members of the public, you may have to book first.
Bridgerton season one is available to watch on Netflix. Season two will premier in the UK on Friday 25th March 2022.
