Real-life Bridgerton Filming Locations Across the UK
Rangers House, London
The exterior of Rangers House is used for the Bridgerton family residence and portrayed in the series as a cosmopolitan London Home. In reality, it is a Georgian villa built on the edge of Greenwich Park and has welcomed many elite residents in real life, including the royal family and countless aristocrats, and is now open to public visitors.
Hatfield House, Hertfordshire
Real-life filming for the interior of the Featheringtons’ house was in the opulent Hatfield House in Hertfordshire. The stately home provides a regal level of glamor and the interior aesthetic extends perfectly to the colorful Featherington clan. The house and gardens are open for visits.
No. 1 Royal Crescent, Somerset
The Royal Crescent in Bath, Somerset, has many shots in the Bridgerton series and acts as the exterior of the Featherington family home. It was built in the 18th century and is a former Georgian townhouse that high society flocked to back in its heyday, but it is now a museum that is open to the public.
Halton House, Buckinghamshire
The interior scenes of Bridgeton’s house, and the Bridgerton ball at the end of season two, were shot at the French-style Halton House in Aylesbury. The charming mansion has since been sold to the RAF and is home to serving personnel based at RAF Halton, so it’s only available to view on planned open days.
Wilton House, Wiltshire
The gardens and staterooms feature in many episodes of Bridgerton. Most recognisably, Queen Charlotte’s royal residence was filmed in this grand country house – including her bedroom, parlor and garden. Wilton House was also used as the Duke of Hasting’s house exterior and featured as Lady Danbury’s library. The estate is open to the public during the summer season.
