In this guide
Ranger’s House in Greenwich, the Bridgertons’ front door, costs nothing to look at but opens its rooms on select dates only. Most Bridgerton locations are real stately homes with their own tickets and opening days, and most are outside London. This page covers the London ones first, then the day trips, with what each costs.
💡 The Short Version: Ranger’s House in Greenwich Park is the Bridgerton House exterior — free to view, but the interior opens on select dates only, booked ahead. Ham House in Richmond doubles as Bridgerton House, Penwood House and Benedict’s cottage in series four; £18 for house and garden, no booking needed. Castle Howard in Yorkshire confirms on its own site that it played Clyvedon Castle. Hampton Court Palace says its Privy Garden “serves as the exterior of Queen Charlotte’s palace” — included in the £29 off-peak ticket. Lancaster House has no public entry at all. Bath’s Assembly Rooms are closed until 2027. Or book a tour: a 2½-hour Bridgerton walk around Greenwich costs £27, and a half-day coach trip to Hampton Court with palace tickets £80, which saves the train from Waterloo.
⚠️ Ranger’s House opens its rooms on select dates only. The exterior and the rose garden are free any day, but going inside needs a ticket booked for one of English Heritage’s open days.

Tours
Most Bridgerton locations are stately homes with their own tickets, so a tour buys the transport and the story rather than special access. Tour prices and ratings below are GetYourGuide’s on 15 September 2026.
London: Bridgerton Walking Tour in Greenwich is £27 for 2½ hours, rated 4.9 from 8 reviews. The listing takes in filming locations including the Queen’s House and the Royal Observatory.
Hampton Court Palace Half-Day Trip from London with Tickets is £80 for 5½ hours, 4.3 from 48 reviews: a coach from London and entry to the palace whose Privy Garden plays Queen Charlotte’s. The ticket alone is £29 off-peak, so the rest of the price is the transport.
In Bath, which stands in for Regency London’s Grosvenor Square, two Bridgerton walks have far more reviews than anything in London. Bath: Guided Tour of Iconic Bridgerton Filming Locations is £20 for 2 hours, 4.6 from 408 reviews, with photographs of the scenes at each stop. Bath: Bridgerton Filming Locations Walking Tour with Music is £22 for 1½ hours, 4.7 from 519 reviews, with the show’s music on headphones. Our Bath day trip guide covers the train.
From London: Blenheim Palace Day Trip with Admission is £69, 4.2 from 17 reviews, for the palace that played Buckingham House in series three.

Ranger’s House, Greenwich
“Ranger’s House is an elegant Georgian villa, now best known as the exterior of the Bridgerton home in the award-winning Netflix series” — English Heritage says so itself, on its own page for the building, alongside the property’s real history as the Wernher Collection.
English Heritage opens the rooms behind this door on select dates only; the exterior and gardens are free every day.
Chesterfield Walk, Blackheath, London, SE10 8QX, inside Greenwich Park. The exterior and the grounds cost nothing — the rose garden behind the house, part of Greenwich Park itself, is free and at its best in June. The house interior is a different matter: English Heritage opens it on select dates only, booked online in advance, in Standard, Saver and Super Saver ticket tiers rather than a flat walk-up price. Members go free. As of 15 September 2026, the upper floors are not accessible to visitors with limited mobility — there is no interior lift and the exterior wheelchair platform is out of service.
Ham House, Richmond
Ham House stood in for Bridgerton House, Penwood House and Benedict Bridgerton’s country cottage, My Cottage, in series four. The production built a flower-laden pergola on Ham’s South Terrace for Sophie Baek and Benedict’s scene during the opening ball, and shot the “below stairs” scenes in the house’s genuine 17th-century kitchen.
The production built a flower-laden pergola on Ham’s South Terrace for a series four scene between Sophie Baek and Benedict Bridgerton.
Ham Street, Ham, Richmond, Surrey, TW10 7RS. Checked 15 September 2026: house 11:30am–3:30pm, garden 10am–5pm. No pre-booking — go to Visitor Reception on arrival. Adult £18.00 (£19.80 with Gift Aid), child (5–17) £9.00, family (2 adults + up to 3 children) £45.00. National Trust members go free.
Osterley Park and House, Isleworth
Robert Adam’s “Palace of Palaces” played the Full Moon Ball in series three’s second episode — Location Manager Tony Hood told the National Trust the courtyard’s grand columns “worked very well for the ball sequence,” and the production rigged a crane outside to fake the moonlight. Osterley’s Entrance Hall, designed as a ballroom in the first place, appears in several more scenes, dressed with around 500 LED candles.
Around 500 LED candles dressed this hall, designed as a ballroom in the first place, for the Full Moon Ball scene.
Jersey Road, Isleworth, Middlesex, TW7 4RB, a short walk from Osterley Underground (Piccadilly line). Checked 15 September 2026: house open Wednesday to Sunday, 11am–3:30pm (closed Monday and Tuesday except bank holidays). House and garden: adult £18.00 (£19.80 Gift Aid), child £9.00, family £45.00. A garden-only ticket runs on the Monday/Tuesday closure days: adult £10.00, child £5.00. Car parking £7.
Syon House, Isleworth
Wikipedia’s cited production sources put Syon House and Badminton House together as Hastings House — Simon Basset’s London home — in series one. Syon is the one of the two that’s actually open to visitors: the Duke of Northumberland’s London house, with Robert Adam interiors and the Great Conservatory in its gardens.
Of the two houses said to have played Hastings House, Syon is the one actually open to visitors.
Syon Park, Isleworth, TW7 6AZ. The house opens for guided tours (up to 90 minutes, first tour 10:30am, last tour 2pm) on Mondays and Tuesdays, plus self-guided entry Sundays and bank holidays, 10:30am–3:30pm (last entry 2:30pm). Adult £16.50, concession £15.00, child (5–16) £9.50, family (2 adults + 3 children) £48.00, online. The gardens and Great Conservatory alone run the same three days, 10:30am–3:30pm: adult £7.00, concession £5.50, child £3.50.
Hampton Court Palace
Historic Royal Palaces has its own dedicated page for this, titled “Film and TV locations at Hampton Court Palace,” and it is specific: Base Court is where debutantes arrive to be presented to Queen Charlotte, Fountain Court carries several more of Charlotte’s scenes, and the Privy Garden “serves as the exterior of Queen Charlotte’s palace.” All of it — plus the Great Fountain Garden — is included in a standard palace ticket, and the same locations reappear in the prequel, Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story.
Historic Royal Palaces’ own site says this garden “serves as the exterior of Queen Charlotte’s palace.”
Pricing until 27 November 2026: adult £29.00 off-peak (weekdays) / £32.00 peak (weekends and bank holidays), child (5–15) £14.50/£16.00, under-5s free, senior and student £23.50/£25.50. Membership from £65 a year for unlimited entry. East Molesey, Surrey, KT8 9AU.
Lancaster House and the Reform Club: real, but not open
Lancaster House, together with Hampton Court, stands in for St James’s Palace. It is run by the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office as a government hospitality and events venue — the same building used for The Crown, The King’s Speech and Churchill’s 1953 coronation banquet — and has no regular public opening. Stable Yard, St James’s, London SW1A 1BB, five minutes’ walk from Green Park station; you can see the portico from the street and nothing more.
The same building has doubled for The Crown and The King’s Speech, and hosted Churchill’s 1953 coronation banquet.
The Reform Club, 104 Pall Mall, SW1Y 5EW, is where Anthony Bridgerton and Simon Basset meet in series one — a genuine private members’ club founded in 1836, still operating as one, with dining and event rooms rather than a public tour. Look at the facade on Pall Mall; membership is the only way in.
The rest, briefly
Old Royal Naval College, Greenwich, appears in series two. Its grounds are free and its Painted Hall ticketed — both already covered in our Greenwich area guide.
The hall appears in series two; entry is ticketed separately from the college’s free grounds.
Hackney Empire (291 Mare Street, E8 1EJ) supplied theatre scenes in series one, and Wilton’s Music Hall (Graces Alley, E1 8JB) a meeting place in series two. Both are working venues, so the way in is a ticket to a show.
Further out: day trips
Most of the grand interiors were filmed outside London, in Somerset, Wiltshire, Hertfordshire, Surrey, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Yorkshire and Lincolnshire. Each needs a full day.
| Location | What it played | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Bath (Assembly Rooms, Holburne Museum, No.1 Royal Crescent) | Multiple, including Daphne and the Duke’s first meeting | See below — Assembly Rooms closed until 2027 |
| Wilton House, near Salisbury, Wiltshire | Hyde Park, Hastings House interior, St James’s throne room (S1) | Open summer months only; still a private family home |
| Hatfield House, Hertfordshire | Featheringtons’ interior (S1); Queen Charlotte | House closed for the season as of 15 Sept 2026; gardens open to 27 Sept |
| Painshill, Cobham, Surrey | Garden scenes (S1) | Open daily, 10am–6pm |
| Castle Howard, North Yorkshire | Clyvedon Castle, the Duke of Hastings’s estate (S1) | House and Gardens ticket, 20 Mar–31 Oct |
| Blenheim Palace, Oxfordshire | Buckingham House (S3) | Park and Gardens from £34 adult |
| Basildon Park, Berkshire | Featherington garden (S2); Lady Tilley Arnold’s home (S3) | £20 house and garden |
| Claydon House, Buckinghamshire | The wedding breakfast (S3) | £12 house and garden; closed Tue–Thu |
| Waddesdon Manor, Buckinghamshire | Queen Charlotte | Grounds £14, house and grounds £27 |
| Belton House, Lincolnshire | King George’s residence, Queen Charlotte | National Trust — see below |
Bath
Bath stands in for Regency London’s Grosvenor Square. Our Bath day trip guide covers the Roman Baths, the trains and the rest of the city; here is the Bridgerton layer on top of it.
⚠️ The Assembly Rooms are closed. The National Trust’s own site is blunt: “Bath Assembly Rooms is now closed for renovations. We look forward to welcoming visitors back in 2027.” This is the Tea Room where Daphne Bridgerton and the Duke of Hastings meet for the first time in series one, and where Lady Danbury’s first ball of the season plays out in Queen Charlotte. Bennett Street, Bath, BA1 2QH. Checked 15 September 2026.
The Holburne Museum, at the top of Great Pulteney Street, played Lady Danbury’s estate and is open regardless: its permanent collection is free, daily, 10am–5pm (Sunday and bank holidays 11am–5pm, last admission 4.30pm), with special exhibitions from £16.50 (£8 reduced). No.1 Royal Crescent, Bath’s period-furnished show house, stood in for Grosvenor Square — already priced in our Bath guide at £16 for adults, closed Mondays. The Guildhall hosted a further ball scene in series one.
Wilton House, near Salisbury
The grounds of Wilton House played Hyde Park; inside, it doubled as Simon’s Hastings House, the Clyvedon estate interior and the St James’s Palace throne room. Inside is Inigo Jones’s Double Cube Room, and in the grounds the 1736 Palladian Bridge over the River Nadder.
It is also still a family home — the Earl of Pembroke’s family occupies roughly a third of the house — and it opens to the public during the summer months only, so check its remaining open dates and prices before planning a September visit. Salisbury is under 90 minutes from London Waterloo by train; Wilton is a short bus or taxi ride beyond the station.
Hatfield House, Hertfordshire
Hatfield’s interior played the Featheringtons’ house in series one and reappears in Queen Charlotte. Checked 15 September 2026: Hatfield House itself is closed for the season — the house reopens in spring — but the Gardens and Park stay open Wednesday to Sunday, 10:30am–5pm, until 27 September 2026, after which they close too. When the house is open, a combined House, Garden and Park ticket is £27 adult, £13.50 child; garden and park alone are £17 adult, £8.50 child. Hatfield Park, Hatfield, Hertfordshire, AL9 5NB, about 25 minutes from London King’s Cross.
The house reappears in the prequel, Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, as well as in series one.
Painshill, Cobham
An 18th-century landscape garden of follies, a Gothic Temple and a Crystal Grotto, used for garden scenes in series one. Open daily, all year, 10am–6pm, last entry 5pm — the Crystal Grotto specifically closes on Mondays for maintenance. Painshill is an independent charity, so National Trust and English Heritage membership cards are explicitly not valid here; admission is booked online through Painshill’s own site, at a discount over the on-the-door rate. Cobham, Surrey, KT11 1JE, reachable from London Waterloo.
Castle Howard, North Yorkshire
Castle Howard’s own website states that the house “doubled as Clyvedon Castle, the Duke of Hastings’ home that he shares with his new wife Daphne.” Its holiday cottages sit in the real village of Coneysthorpe, used on screen as Clyvedon village.
House and Gardens tickets run 20 March to 31 October. Checked 15 September 2026: grounds 10am–5pm (last entry 4pm), house 10am–4pm (last entry 3pm), a self-guided visit of 40 to 60 minutes. This is the one entry on this page that is a genuine expedition rather than a day trip in the London sense — budget at least two hours each way on the train to York, plus a bus or taxi on to the house, making it a very long single day or better as an overnight. Worth it only if Castle Howard itself, not just the Bridgerton connection, is the draw.
Blenheim Palace, Oxfordshire
Blenheim, Churchill’s birthplace, stood in for Buckingham House in series three. A Park & Gardens ticket is £34 adult / £18 child online, and the full Palace, Park & Gardens Pass is £44 adult / £27 child, generally open 10am–5.30pm. Oxford is under an hour from London Paddington; Blenheim is a short bus ride on from there.
A Park & Gardens ticket costs £34 for an adult; the full Palace, Park & Gardens Pass, including the interior, is £44.
Basildon Park, Berkshire
Basildon’s Georgian rooms and rose garden did double duty: the Featherington family’s evening party in series two, and Colin and Penelope’s first kiss in series three, with the 18th-century interior standing in as widow Lady Tilley Arnold’s home. Adult £20.00 (£22.00 Gift Aid), child £10.00, family £50.00. Near Pangbourne, reachable from London Paddington via Reading.
Claydon House, Buckinghamshire
New for series three: the wedding breakfast in episode seven, using a previously unseen room dressed as the Featheringtons’ dining room, its existing ornate carvings doing much of the work. Adult £13.20 (£12.00 without Gift Aid), child £6.00, family £30.00. Checked 15 September 2026, the house opens Friday to Monday only, so it is genuinely closed most weekdays — plan around that rather than around London train times.
Waddesdon Manor, Buckinghamshire
A Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story location, run jointly by the Rothschild Foundation and the National Trust. Grounds only: adult £14, child £7. House and grounds: adult £27, child £13.50. National Trust members enter free. Checked 15 September 2026: grounds 10am–5pm (last entry 4pm), house 12pm–4:30pm (11am at weekends), Wednesday to Sunday. Near Aylesbury, about an hour from London Marylebone.
Belton House, Lincolnshire
Netflix originally wanted Kew Palace for young King George’s residence in Queen Charlotte but switched to Belton for its larger rooms. Ten rooms were emptied and protected for filming, the Marble Hall was transformed into the King’s bedroom, and the crew planted a real vegetable garden of tomatoes, corn and cabbages for the kitchen scenes, according to the National Trust’s own account of the shoot. It is genuinely remote from London — the best part of two and a half hours each way, near Grantham — so this is one for Bridgerton completists rather than a casual day out.
Two costed days
One day: Greenwich
Ranger’s House and the Old Royal Naval College are either side of Greenwich Park; the rest of the day is in our Greenwich area guide.
| Item | Cost |
|---|---|
| Contactless daily cap, Zones 1–2 | £8.90 |
| Ranger’s House exterior and rose garden | £0.00 |
| Old Royal Naval College grounds | £0.00 |
| Greenwich Park and the hilltop view | £0.00 |
| Lunch at Greenwich Market | £12.00 |
| Total per adult | £20.90 |
Add the £27 Bridgerton walking tour and it’s £47.90.
One day: the West London houses
Ham House and Osterley Park are National Trust houses in west London, with Syon House between them. Sunday is the only day Osterley and Syon both open their houses.
| Item | Cost |
|---|---|
| Contactless daily cap, Zones 1–6 | £16.30 |
| Ham House, house and garden | £18.00 |
| Osterley Park, house and garden | £18.00 |
| Lunch | £12.00 |
| Total per adult | £64.30 |
Swap either house for Hampton Court Palace (£29 off-peak on weekdays, £32 at weekends) to add Queen Charlotte’s palace.
What is not worth it
Chasing Somerley, Wrotham Park or Halton House. All three are confirmed Bridgerton locations — Somerley (Hampshire) stood in for Hampstead Heath, Wrotham Park (Hertfordshire) for Aubrey Hall’s exterior, Halton House at RAF Halton (Buckinghamshire) for the Bridgertons’ and Featheringtons’ interiors — and all three are a private estate, a private estate and an active RAF station respectively. None takes public visitors.
A special trip to Coneysthorpe on its own. It is a genuine village used as Clyvedon village, and it is also just houses — visit it as part of a Castle Howard trip, which is a five-minute drive away, not as a destination by itself.
Badminton House. Wikipedia’s production sources list it alongside Syon House for Hastings House interiors in series one, but Badminton is a private Gloucestershire estate that opens to the public for only a handful of days a year around its horse trials — not a reliable add-on to a Bridgerton trip.

Common questions
Where is the real Bridgerton family house?
The exterior is Ranger's House in Greenwich Park, Chesterfield Walk, SE10 8QX. English Heritage's own website calls it 'the exterior of the Bridgerton home in the award-winning Netflix series.' It is open on select dates only and must be booked ahead. For series four, Benedict Bridgerton's terrace scene and the house's below-stairs kitchen were filmed at Ham House in Richmond, a separate National Trust property that doubles as three different addresses in the show.
Can you visit Castle Howard, the Duke of Hastings's estate?
Yes. Castle Howard's own website says it 'doubled as Clyvedon Castle, the Duke of Hastings' home' in series one, and its holiday cottages sit in Coneysthorpe, used as Clyvedon village. House and Gardens tickets run from 20 March to 31 October; on 15 September 2026 the grounds were open 10am-5pm and the house 10am-4pm, a self-guided visit of 40 to 60 minutes. It is a genuine day out from London: allow at least two hours each way to York, plus a bus or taxi on to the house.
Is there a Bridgerton walking tour in London?
Yes. A 2½-hour Bridgerton walking tour of Greenwich costs £27 on GetYourGuide, taking in the Queen's House and the Royal Observatory. The best-reviewed Bridgerton tours are in Bath: two walking tours from £20, with 408 and 519 reviews.
Can the public visit Lancaster House, used for St James's Palace?
No, not on an ordinary day. Lancaster House on Stable Yard, St James's, is run by the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office as a government hospitality venue hired out for events, with no regular visitor opening. You can see it from the street, five minutes' walk from Green Park station.
Where was Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story filmed?
Hampton Court Palace supplied Base Court, Fountain Court and the Privy Garden — Historic Royal Palaces' own site says the Privy Garden 'serves as the exterior of Queen Charlotte's palace.' Belton House in Lincolnshire played young King George's residence, and Blenheim Palace, Hatfield House, Waddesdon Manor and Merton College, Oxford, were used for further scenes.
Is Bath's Assembly Rooms open, where Daphne and the Duke first meet?
No. The National Trust's own site states: 'Bath Assembly Rooms is now closed for renovations. We look forward to welcoming visitors back in 2027.' It is the room used for Daphne and the Duke's first meeting in series one and for Lady Danbury's ball in Queen Charlotte. Bath's other Bridgerton buildings, the Holburne Museum and No.1 Royal Crescent, are open as normal.
