Osterley Park and House
Ranger’s House
St. James’s Church
Lancaster House
Hampton Court Palace
The Reform Club
The former home of Henry VIII, the original Tudor Hampton Court Palace was a royalty-approved choice for producers looking for a multipurpose setting. throughout season two. It is the place where Eloise meets her new love interest as well as the Chancery Lane Printing Press exterior. It also sets the stage for the corridor in Benedict’s art academy, the wedding reception party for Anthony and Edwina, and the gardens of both Buckingham House and Danbury House. Hampton Court Palace is open to the public to explore and was the perfect backdrop for Kris and Matts' wedding photographs. A modern Bridgerton fairytale!
No.1 Royal Crescent
The Holburne Museum of Art
Abbey Green
Beauford Square
Guildhall
Edward Street
The Holburne Museum in Bath is a central Bridgerton setting in both seasons as the home of Lady Danbury. The Bath setting is featured more prominently in season two as it’s the place where the Sharma family resides, thanks to the generosity of Lady Danbury. The breathtaking Palladian-style home, though appearing in the show as though on the outskirts of upper-class London, is actually in the heart of Bath’s city centre. The Grade I listed building houses over 10,000 objects and is now the city’s first public art gallery.

The incredible palace first appeared in Queen Charlotte as Buckingham House but will feature in Bridgerton for the first time in Penelope & Colin's love story.
There's no denying we're all dying to binge-watch the finale of season three! But, before we immerse ourselves in the latest gossip from Lady Whistledown, let us remind ourselves of the season one finale at Syon Park.

Now, I must confess, if I wasn't taken, the magnificent Castle Howard in Yorkshire is the address I'd want in my little black book. Especially if it involved a tour of the library! Featured in Bridgerton as the Duke of Hastings' residence, Clyvedon Castle, and occasionally available to hire exclusively for bespoke events. Step ladders are optional! The castle actually took over 100 years to build! Work began on the castle in 1699 and after the lifetimes of three Earls, it was finally completed in 1811.
It's of little surprise that Stowe Park in Buckinghamshire made an appearance in the series. Stowe Park appears as a backdrop to the lavish outdoor ball scene in which the relationship between Daphne and the Duke of Hastings shifts. Known in the show as the Vauxhall Gardens, Stowe Park was chosen for its Garden of Eden-like drama. Who couldn't fall in love at first sight here? Apparently, Queen Victoria was even reported to be jealous of the property. If it’s good enough for Victoria, it’s good enough for the Bridgertons. In the park, lies Stowe House a gorgeously classic wedding venue we've featured several times on Rock My Wedding.
Set in the heart of a 2,500-acre estate in Hertfordshire, Wrotham Park was one of the most prominent locations in season two of Bridgerton.

Another exquisite park that features in the series is Painshill Park, an 18th-century landscaped park in Surrey. In Bridgerton, this park is meant to represent a park in London where all of the ton spend their afternoons promenading, boating, picnicking, and of course, gossiping. What a simpler time! Painshill Park is also currently a wedding venue. Samrah & Ismail had their own colourful Muslim wedding at the Conservatory in Painshill Park, Surrey. They chose the venue because they wanted an elegant summer garden wedding. How Bridgerton indeed!
