A Favourite Filming And TV Location
The Estate offers a variety of unique features ideal for filming period dramas, modern films, factual documentaries, photoshoots, and has already been the backdrop for several popular productions, including Poldark, Sanditon, and the Downton Abbey movie.
Filming at Bowood is subject to a location fee, with costs varying based on the specific requirements, resources needed, duration, and time of year. Once the details of your project are discussed, a quote will be provided.
As a proud Filming in England Partner, Bowood House & Gardens is committed to supporting film and TV drama productions. The Filming in England Partnership connects various organisations across England, outside of London, to create a film-friendly environment.
