Contemporary / Modern Locations

Tawny Estate offers a striking contemporary setting within the Yorkshire countryside. The estate’s modern wellbeing centre includes clean-lined yoga studios, a pool and calm, light-filled interiors. Alongside this sits a contemporary event venue and a beautifully enclosed walled garden, providing a mix of architectural styles and outdoor backdrops in one location. Together, these spaces offer a design-led, modern rural look ideal for film, TV and photography.

Foxfield Farm offers a striking modern main house clad in Corten steel, giving it a clean, contemporary look that works well on camera. The house has large windows and opens onto a generous terrace with wide, open views across the surrounding land.

Set within 120 acres in the borough of Bromley, right on the edge of London’s suburbia, the farm feels quiet and rural while still being easy to access. It’s a practical option for shoots looking for modern architecture alongside open countryside, all in one location.

Across our collection of farms, you’ll find a wide range of modern interiors that sit within rural settings. These include clean-lined contemporary houses, architect-designed farmhouses, and converted barns with a modern finish, all offering bright, flexible spaces. You’ll find open-plan kitchens and living areas, minimalist bedrooms, large windows, and thoughtfully designed interiors that feel current without losing their countryside context. These spaces are well-suited to commercials, TV drama, lifestyle shoots and stills, combining modern interiors with working farmyards, open land, or traditional exteriors just outside the door, allowing productions to capture multiple looks in one place.

Lake House Farm centres around a striking lake with a modern boathouse perched directly over the water. Available for interiors, the boathouse includes its own kitchen and bathroom, making it a practical and self-contained filming space with a clean, contemporary look.

The lake is the main highlight, with a jetty and boat access adding further visual and filming options, both on and over the water. Set in Hertfordshire, the farm is just over an hour’s drive from Central London and around 25 minutes from Elstree Studios, making it an accessible countryside location with a modern edge.

Our modern farmyards include a wide range of agricultural buildings, barns, warehouses, polytunnels and storage facilities, all built for function and scale. These spaces feature open interiors, high ceilings and practical layouts, making them ideal for filming or photography that needs a working farm look or flexible production space.

Many sites combine modern farmyards with surrounding fields and access roads, giving crews multiple exterior and interior shooting options in one location. With straightforward access, large doors, and robust structures, these buildings are particularly suited to commercials, TV, lifestyle shoots, and stills where a contemporary agricultural setting is required.

Ripple Lakes, TN6 offers a strikingly modern lakeside house set right on the edge of its largest six-acre lake, available to hire both inside and out. The house provides clean, contemporary interiors with uninterrupted water views, while outside, the setting feels calm and expansive.

Accessed via a private track that passes beneath an old, disused railway viaduct, the approach adds an unexpected historic contrast, giving productions two very different backdrops in one location. The combination of modern architecture, open water and industrial heritage makes Ripple Lakes a flexible option for film, TV and stills.

Land Farm offers a bold mix of landscape and modern design. Set across more than 30 acres, the farm’s standout feature is an 8-acre naturalistic prairie garden, giving wide, open views and a strong visual identity.

Rising above the planting is a striking 7-metre-tall steel-clad viewing tower. Built from unadorned steel sheets, its clean, industrial structure creates graphic lines and unexpected backdrop options for filming and photography. Alongside this, a former Dutch barn has been converted into a contemporary home, adding a modern interior and exterior setting that sits comfortably within the surrounding farmland.

Flaxen Farm combines contemporary design with a traditional working farm setting. A collection of modern timber glamping pods and holiday cottages, many with hot tubs, sit within the wider Cotswold farmland, offering clean, current exteriors and cosy, well-finished interiors.

The contrast between modern accommodation and the surrounding historic farm landscape makes Flaxen Farm particularly suitable for productions needing a rural feel with a contemporary edge, all in one easy, self-contained location.
