Bridgerton Season 4 returns in January 2026! We’re diving into the series’ filming locations all over the U.K., and sharing how you can step into the Regency era on our immersive tours.

We come to you, dearest reader, with a most joyous announcement: The wait is nearly over! The fourth installment of our favorite guilty-pleasure TV series returns in January, and we can’t wait to tell you all about the latest “Bridgerton” filming locations, where your favorite characters have been promenading in Regency-era London attire. While we can’t share everything we know all at once, one thing is certain: Newly married Penelope and Colin Bridgerton will continue to turn heads with their romance.   

And so, with a new season, you may wonder: When and where was “Bridgerton” filmed? What bucolic settings will our beloved characters be found in? Consider us your guide to every historic locale—and the stand-ins that doubled for the real spots—as you peruse this list of “Bridgerton” and “Queen Charlotte” filming locations that you can visit on a trip to England or beyond. From beautifully manicured gardens and sprawling palace estates to grand ballrooms where romance (and gossip!) is guaranteed to ensue, let’s take a deeper look into the “Bridgerton” filming locations that may make an appearance in Season 4.

What is “Bridgerton” about?

One of Netflix’s most successful shows, “Bridgerton” follows the glamorous lives of the eight Bridgerton siblings as they navigate high society England during the Regency era. The series is filled with the drama and intrigue the Bridgertons and their cohorts get into, sure, but it also provides fantastical insight into that era via grand balls, bucolic surrounds, and opulent fashions. No wonder travelers have been eager to book our England tours; “Bridgerton” has become one of the most popular themes for set-jetting.

What is set-jetting?

In the golden age of television, a great series doesn’t just transport us through impeccable storytelling, it also inspires our wanderlust. One of the latest trends in travel is called set-jetting, where you tour the stunning destinations featured in your favorite shows, movies, and books. Whether you want to seek out Thailand’s best beaches for that “White Lotus” fantasy or stroll through the canals of Amsterdam like they did in “Ted Lasso,” some of the most sought-after travel experiences are tied to the scenes we’re seeing on our screens. Given how popular “Bridgerton” has become, it’s no surprise everyone wants to go to the U.K. to see these stunning “Bridgerton” filming locations themselves.

The best “Bridgerton” filming locations to visit in London

The show is filmed all over the U.K., and some key “Bridgerton” filming locations are in London, including the Bridgerton family home. It’s meant to be in Grosvenor Square in Mayfair, but filming was actually across town in a gorgeous Georgian villa called Ranger’s House in Greenwich Park. On your next trip to London, you can spend your free time visiting “Bridgerton” locations as well as “Downton Abbey” filming locations. Set-jetting is fast becoming one of our favorite things to do in London!

The Reform Club

This 19th-century gentleman’s club on Pall Mall was a place for radical political thinkers. In the land of “Bridgerton,” it was where the Duke of Hastings and Viscount Bridgerton met in the first episode of Season 1. It’s right down the street from Trafalgar Square—which you’ll visit on all our trips to London—so it’s an easy stop to make on your own while on our London & Paris tour, for example.

Syon House

Located in Brentford’s Syon Park, close to the Royal Botanic Gardens, this historic home was used as Simon’s father’s office and for Queen Charlotte’s dinner meeting place, as well as the location of the ball in Season 2. (Remember that quartet cover of “Material Girl”?)

Lancaster House

This 19th-century mansion is the site of some of the show’s grandest home interior scenes. (For reference, it’s where Charlotte chats with Edwina in the royal jewel room.) Located in London’s West End, along Green Park and St. James’s Park, it’s a spectacular place for architecture lovers to visit during free time on our London: The City Experience trip.

Hampton Court Palace

Hampton Court Palace served as the home of King Henry VIII in real life—and as Queen Charlotte’s pad in Bridgerton. In addition to its gardens featured as various Buckingham House and Danbury House settings, the facade doubles as the exterior of Chancery Lane Printing Press in Season 2, when Eloise meets Theo.

The Old Royal Naval College

The Old Royal Naval College in London’s Greenwich neighborhood is a popular filming location—it has also been featured in period dramas like “The Crown” and “Les Miserables.” In “Bridgerton” Season 2, it’s where Anthony agonizes over his mother’s list of eligible women. You can explore 600 years of British history here on a free afternoon during our Highlights of England, Scotland & Ireland tour.

Windsor Great Park

In Season 2, this park was where the viscount and Miss Sharma have their momentous encounter on horseback. Today, it’s a public green space facing Windsor Castle. Book the Windsor Castle excursion offered on our London & Paris tour, where you’ll get to join a prestigious Blue Badge Guide on a tour through the State Apartments, St. George’s Chapel, and more.

Ham House and Garden

While this stately property in southwest London isn’t officially confirmed as a “Bridgerton” location, there were rumors that it was scouted for Season 4. A member of the National Trust, this atmospheric, 17th-century manor is famous for its stunning collection of antiques and the gorgeous gardens that surround it. It’s definitely a bit of a trek from central London, but during your free time on our London: The City Experience tour, the Ham House could make for a beautiful break from the hustle and bustle of the capital.

No. 1 Royal Crescent

The best “Bridgerton” locations to visit in Bath

Is there a more charming English destination than Bath—a city with Roman history, literary heritage, and, now, “Bridgerton” locations? A trip to England should almost always include a stop in this quaint pocket of Somerset, largely because of its Old World ambience. If watching the show has you wondering, “Where was ‘Bridgerton’ filmed?,” fans should know that Bath’s cobbled city streets and grand buildings set the scene for much of the dramatic series.

No. 1 Royal Crescent

The exterior of this beautifully curved, late-1700s aristocratic residence is the home of the Featherington family in “Bridgerton.” In reality, it’s a museum that gives visitors a glimpse into the lifestyles of past residents. Pass by for an elegant afternoon tea or get a deeper dive into the architecture on a guided sightseeing excursion while on our Grand Tour of Great Britain: Scotland, England & Wales.

Beauford Square & Trim Street

Beauford Square, a small garden behind the Theatre Royal Bath, is where Eloise and Penelope have that big talk about Marina’s pregnancy in “Bridgerton” Season 1. Just next door on Trim Street is where Simon and Daphne meet in Season 1, Episode 3, at Gunter’s Tea Shop—a real Regency-era London hotspot.

Abbey Deli

Walk along the cobbled streets of Abbey Green and, among the charming boutiques, you’ll spot Abbey Deli. “Bridgerton” set dressers worked their magic to turn this sandwich shop into Modiste, the show’s Parisian-inspired dress shop. During your free time in Bath on our Highlights of Southern England: London, Bath & Oxford tour, don your best outfit and stroll around in style like the characters in the show. 

The Guildhall

In the heart of the city near the Abbey, this opulent, 18th-century relic is often used for real life weddings. Its interiors are also a popular “Bridgerton” filming location, regularly used for ballrooms scenes, like the first ball of the season in the Rambury Ballroom in Season 1. It is very likely that more parties in Season 4 will take place here.

Other “Bridgerton” filming locations in the U.K.

These days, a trip to the U.K. is perfect for set-jetting, as many of the most popular television shows and movies are filmed there. For example, “Dungeons & Dragons” was adapted for film in England, Northern Ireland, and beyond (and you can also visit those “Dungeons & Dragons” filming locations on tour with us!). It’s the same for “Bridgerton.” Our U.K. tours can get you closer to some of your favorite scenes from the show.

Badminton House

One of the most jaw-dropping homes in the show is the Duke of Hastings’ residence, which he moves into with Daphne following their wedding. Several kings and queens have visited the 17th-century estate in Gloucestershire, England, through the years, so, naturally, it was chosen to play a part in the show. Fun fact: It’s just 20 minutes from Highgrove House, the private residence of King Charles III and Queen Camilla.

West Wycombe Park 

With architecture fusing both Palladian and Neoclassical styles, West Wycombe Park in Buckinghamshire, England, is home to eccentric buildings, scenic fountains, and grand temples—plus one of the finest surviving 18th-century landscape gardens. The estate makes plenty of appearances in “Bridgerton” as a secondary location of Aubrey Hall—the titular family’s country home—as well as the interior of Anthony’s bedroom (and home of the lake that he notoriously fell into in Season 2).

Wrotham Park

You may have seen this Neo-Palladian country house in Hertfordshire, England, in popular shows and films like “The Crown” and the “Kingsman” franchise. If not, you’ll catch plenty of glimpses of this stunner throughout “Bridgerton” Season 2, where it’s used as the main estate for Aubrey Hall. 

The Historic Dockyard Chatham

Remember when Lady Featherington took Marina to see the slums in an attempt to scare her? Those scenes took place in Kent, England, at this “Bridgerton” filming location, whose gardens are the ones used for Bridgerton House. In reality, it’s not as glum as it appears on the show. The dockyard sports a rich maritime history and is lined with charming cobbled streets that are great for a stroll. Check them out while on our London, Paris & Rome tour!

Painshill Park

This picturesque park in Surrey, England, where the Featherington family promenades in the show, was designed in the mid-1700s and remains intact to this day. It was popular with the society set of that time and counts dignitaries like Thomas Jefferson among its visitors.

Wilton House

You’ll instantly recognize this Wiltshire, England, landmark, since it’s one of the most memorable places to visit from “Bridgerton.” It appears as rooms in Queen Charlotte’s residences, St. James’s Palace, and Buckingham Palace. (It’s also used as Buckingham Palace on “The Crown.”) It’s home to collections of work by Shakespeare and the Baroque artist Anthony van Dyck, and offers visitors plenty of photo ops at scenic locations throughout the grounds.

Castle Howard

Many people ask, “Where is ‘Bridgerton’ filmed?” The answer, of course, depends on the episode. A good portion of the first season takes place at the Duke of Hastings’ home, a private, Baroque-style residence in North Yorkshire, England, that’s been in the Howard family’s ownership for more than 300 years.

The Hatfield House

This regal Hertfordshire, England, estate, whose interiors are used for the Featheringtons’ residence, is no stranger to television—it’s served as a backdrop in “The Crown” and “Rebecca.” Spend part of the day exploring its park, gardens, woodlands, and more, then retire to the Coach House Kitchen restaurant for high tea.

Burghley House

Season 4 will herald the arrival of a new family to the “Bridgerton” universe: the Penwoods. There are rumors swirling that their home was filmed in the Burghley House in Stamford, England. This 16th-century home, which remained in its founding family for 400 years, is considered one of the largest and best examples of architecture from the Elizabethan Age with its Tudor-style towers and opulent interiors–and don’t forget the grand gardens that surround it! No wonder it might play a role in the upcoming season of “Bridgerton.”

The best places to visit from “Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story”

Where was “Queen Charlotte” filmed? Well, like the main “Bridgerton” series, the “Queen Charlotte” spin-off spotlights many of the U.K.’s most atmospheric locales–gorgeous, historic places that complete the “Bridgerton” fantasy!

Belton House

This beautiful, 17th-century country house is in Lincolnshire, England, near Grantham. Its iconic architecture and lush gardens were featured prominently in “Queen Charlotte” as the main location for King George’s residence, transforming many of the rooms—including the Marble Hall, orangery, and scullery—into sets.

Kew Palace

Nestled on the banks of the River Thames, a British royal palace—where the real-life Queen Charlotte and George III lived—features the UNESCO-listed Royal Botanic Gardens, home to the largest and most diverse collection of plants in the world. “Queen Charlotte’s” interior scenes were shot at Belton House and the gardens were filmed at Waddesdon Manor (apparently, the rooms at Kew were too small), but you can still visit the actual palace on one of your free days during our London: The City Experience tour. (It’s an easy ride on the Tube’s District line).

Ranger’s House

Young Violet Ledger is a central character in “Queen Charlotte,” years before she becomes Dowager Viscountess in “Bridgerton.” Ranger’s House is featured prominently as the Bridgerton family home in the prequel, so we’ll likely see it again in Season 3. This Georgian villa on the edge of Greenwich Park and Blackheath dates to the 1720s and now operates as an art museum—making it a great place to spend a free afternoon while on one of our London tours.

The Assembly Rooms

Given all the steamy storylines in “Queen Charlotte,” it’s no surprise Bath’s Assembly Rooms were placed front and center for scandal and social interaction throughout the prequel. Several of “Bridgerton’s” lavish ballroom scenes were filmed in the Assembly Rooms’ Tea Room and Ball Room. They’re still in use for functions such as weddings and conferences, and are open to the public when not being used to set up juicy plotlines.

The Holburne Museum

This now-museum’s exterior was the filming site of one of the first grand balls in “Bridgerton” and regularly appears as Lady Danbury’s home. Before it was a “Bridgerton” filming location, this museum was Bath’s first public art gallery. On our England tours, you’ll stay at a hotel a short walk from the museum, making it easy to check this spot off your list of “Queen Charlotte” filming sites to visit on tour.

Design your own “Bridgerton”-themed tour

If you really want to fan out and dedicate an entire trip to tracing the “Bridgerton” story (and its sets), you can create your own Customized Tour. With just 10 people, you can organize a tour of all the “Bridgerton” and “Queen Charlotte” locations—or any other location you’d love to visit in the U.K. You’re not the first to seek out sights from your favorite show—here’s how one group visited “Outlander” filming location on a Customized Tour of Scotland.
