A stunning Location

Harvington is a unique house and a rare survivor of the Elizabethan age, and its untouched beauty is the perfect location for TV and film

This is a house where time stands still, with its beautiful red brick building rising out of the 13th-century moat. Surrounded by fields and our resident ducks, Harvington is a picturesque location for filming.

The Hall you see today was predominantly built during the 1580s and is famous for having the largest series of priest hides in England. Harvington may be small in comparison to a large country estate, but its authenticity makes it stand out over any other location of its kind. We are happy to accommodate a recce or advise on the location, based on your brief prior to filming.
