Locations in Devon
Our Devon locations offer a diverse mix of coastline, rolling farmland and characterful rural estates. From traditional farmyards and stone barns to manor houses and isolated cottages, the county provides a wide range of backdrops within a relatively compact area.
Devon’s landscape moves easily between valleys, open pasture and dramatic coastal stretches, giving productions strong, varied backdrops. Many of our sites combine historic buildings with surrounding land, allowing for both interiors and exteriors in one practical, accessible location.
Devon delivers an authentic South West feel with flexibility and scale, perfect for film, TV and photoshoots.
South West farm locations near Bristol
We have a collection of six locations within 30 miles of Bristol, offering a practical mix of countryside, traditional farmyards, historic barns, isolated farmhouses and cottages, all within easy reach of the city.
Bristol is the largest city in the South West and a growing hub for film and TV production, with established studios, experienced crews and strong transport links. Being close to the city allows productions to benefit from its infrastructure while still accessing authentic rural backdrops that feel ‘in the middle of nowhere’.
These locations provide flexibility, character and accessibility, and make strong options for film, TV and photography in the region.
Cotswolds
Our Cotswolds locations showcase the South West’s unmistakable character, with traditional stone farmhouses, manor houses and working farmyards set within rolling countryside. Built from warm Cotswold stone, these properties offer timeless rural backdrops that feel authentic and grounded.
From honey-coloured cottages and grand homes to working yards with barns and outbuildings, the Cotswolds provide a strong sense of history. The surrounding landscape of gentle hills, dry-stone walls and open pasture adds further depth, making these locations ideal for period productions, lifestyle shoots, TV and film looking for a classic South West setting.
Step inside
Our South West interiors range from modern, light-filled and colourful spaces to stately, traditional and period rooms. Whether you’re looking for clean contemporary finishes, designer details, or classic country house elegance, the region offers a broad mix of styles.
From thoughtfully designed converted barns and ‘blank canvas’ empty farmhouses, to cottage interiors with original features or manors with panelled walls and heritage details, these locations provide versatile backdrops for film, TV and photography.
Variety across South West
While farms are at the heart of what we do, our South West portfolio offers much more than just farmland.
At Allsorts Farm, you’ll find not only working countryside but also a rural hotel and pub, adding hospitality settings to the mix. Twofold Farm offers two contrasting architectural faces, giving productions very different looks within one location.
At Pitt Rivers Estate, the grounds include Japanese and Indian-inspired structures, bringing unexpected architectural detail to a traditional rural landscape. There’s also a golf club setting, ideal for leisure or lifestyle shoots. Emerald Place stands out for its quirky props and colourful interiors, perfect for bold, character-led shoots, while Sentinel Manor Farm offers a cabin in the woods, ideal for secluded, atmospheric scenes.
Together, these locations highlight the range and flexibility available across the South West, from classic countryside to distinctive, one-of-a-kind backdrops.
Waterside South West locations
The South West offers a wide range of water backdrops, from dramatic cliffs and estuaries to peaceful lakes and ponds. Whether you’re looking for open coastal views, tidal river settings or wild lakes, there are options to suit different moods and scales of production.
Many of our locations also feature boathouses, jetties and waterside access, allowing for practical filming on or beside the water. From wild, natural shorelines to managed estate lakes, these settings provide a strong visual impact while remaining accessible for film, TV and photography.
Equestrian Locations
We have two standout equestrian locations in the South West, offering a mix of practical facilities and scenic backdrops.
Exmoor Farm is a fully equipped equestrian centre, featuring an internal American-style barn with 12 Monarch stables, a modern tack room, and a large indoor arena, ideal for shoots requiring functional riding spaces or period-style stables.
Gallop Farm offers two contrasting sides: one features a state-of-the-art equestrian facility with high-end stables, modern buildings, gallops, and versatile areas that can double as a racecourse like Ascot. The other side showcases the natural beauty of the Cotswolds, with rolling heathland, open farmland, and a secluded, weathered Cotswold stone barn, perfect for rustic or period filming.
These locations combine practical equestrian facilities with striking countryside vistas, giving productions flexibility and a variety of shooting options in one place.
