Where was Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story filmed? Location guide for Netflix drama

And it's not just the premise of Queen Charlotte that has captured the attention of fans, but also its stunning filming locations.

From stately homes to ornate palaces, some of which were previously used in Bridgerton, read on for a breakdown of the key locations used to bring Georgian-era England to life in Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story.

Where was Queen Charlotte filmed?

The first scenes of the Bridgerton prequel series were first spotted filming on the streets of London for a mysterious funeral scene that involved Golda Rosheuvel’s Charlotte and Brimsley (Hugh Sachs) dressed in black.

While we won't reveal whose funeral that ends up being, many of the scenes of the new series were indeed filmed in the England capital, as well as Bath. Like Bridgerton also, many scenes of Queen Charlotte were captured in the most grandest of English manor houses.

Wilton House has often made an appearance in Bridgerton as Queen Charlotte's palace, but also with the interiors being used for shots of Lady Danbury's (Adjoa Andoh) hall and dining room. It has also been used as Clyvedon Castle, the Hastings home but this time round, Wilton House is used as Charlotte's palace once more.

Throughout the series, we see the young Charlotte wander round her gardens (and later find George in them in the middle of the night), a key feature of the grandiose 400 year old venue. The house has understandably also been used for various other projects including The Crown, Pride and Prejudice and Emma.

A brand new location for this series is Belton House, which has been used in the series as King George's palace, Buckingham House. The palace is where the young king lives away from his new wife and is left to his own devices, stargazing and concealing a secret of his own.

While it's a sad fact that the King and Queen are separated and made to live in separate palaces, there's no denying that Belton House sure is a beauty. The grand home, which is located in Grantham, Lincolnshire and was built in the 17th century, is one of the key locations in this series.

Belton House has also been used as a location for the likes of similar period dramas like The Young Victoria, Pride and Prejudice and Jane Eyre, but can also be visited as a National Trust venue.

Kew Gardens in Richmond, London is also a new location for the series, acting as a nice teatime spot for Rosheuvel’s Queen Charlotte, Lady Danbury and Lady Bridgerton. The conservatory is a breath-taking glasshouse of some of the world's most stunning varieties of plants, but here is merely a backdrop to the conversations of the older women of the Ton.

Blenheim Palace is one of the many regal palace fronts used in the series, with one of the more notable shots coming when the King and Queen arrive for their coronation hand-in-hand, appearing like the picture perfect couple but holding a multitude of problems at the time of the major event.

The iconic Oxford palace is the only non-royal, non-episcopal country house in England to hold the title of palace and is located in Blenheim Park in Oxfordshire. The breath-taking backdrop has welcomed the likes of feature films such as Mission Impossible Rogue Nation, Spectre, Harry Potter and more recently, ITV crime drama Endeavour.

It has been revealed that Syon House is also one of the locations in the new prequel series, with the Brentford location being the backdrop of season 2’s dazzling first ball. The Grade I listed building is the west London residence of the Duke of Northumberland and makes an appearance in Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story once more.

Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story is available to watch on Netflix now, alongside Bridgerton seasons 1 and 2. You can buy The Viscount Who Loved Me and the Bridgerton book series on Amazon.
