Offering holidaymakers the chance to channel their inner Lords and Ladies, the properties selected are just a stone’s throw away from some of the best known Bridgerton filming hotspots, from the Bridgerton family home to Lady Danbury’s estate.

1. York, North Yorkshire

Castle Howard in Yorkshire features in season one of Bridgerton and is where the Duke and Daphne Bridgerton settle into married life. Fictionally known as Clyvedon Castle in the series, Castle Howard’s grounds and house are open to the public. Meanwhile, nearby York is known for its unique character with cobbled streets and majestic estates dotted about so it’s no wonder that York was another spot on the list for the Bridgerton sets.

Bath features heavily in Bridgerton, with its grand Georgian architecture spanning across the city. Of course, No. 1 Royal Crescent makes an appearance in the Netflix hit and is the home to the Featherington’s in the series, with Penelope Featherington rumoured to be the focus in the upcoming season. The Holburne Museum, better known as Lady Danbury’s estate, is located in Bath at the top of Great Pultney Street, and it’s clear to see why with its breathtaking Palladian design.

Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire – Bridgerton’s House (the interior) as sees in season 1 and 2

Buckinghamshire is another top filming spot, with scenes from the lavish outdoor ball scenes at Stowe Park to the interiors of the Bridgerton’s family home shot at Halton House, there are lots of hidden gems in the series being set across the county. It’s even rumoured that Queen Victoria was a fan of Buckinghamshire and its Georgian style – so if it’s good enough for royalty, it’s good enough for us.

This beautifully detached farmhouse is the definition of luxury and is set amongst 2,000 acres of farm and woodland. With seven bedrooms, it’s perfect for family or friends to gather in the main living space, surrounding the warm grand fireplace whilst an optional personal chef waits on you all.
