A beautiful example of a Film Ready ‘Period’ Location..
For period drama, East Dene is an absolute dream. From floor-to-ceiling dark wood panelling to the hand-painted ceiling vistas, every corner oozes character and cinematic presence. It’s the kind of space that instantly transports you into another time, making it perfect for productions that demand authenticity and atmosphere.
The industry today is hungry for locations that feel fresh, untouched, and unseen. Audiences crave originality, and filmmakers need spaces that haven’t been overexposed. That’s where Saltburn comes in — a striking example of a dark, epic cult movie location that has captured imaginations around the world. As the demand for these distinctive, immersive environments grows, we’ve doubled down on sourcing properties that provide exactly that for our clients.
Our latest signings are absolute gems. These stately homes and unique properties combine historic charm with architectural integrity, offering filmmakers, photographers, and creative teams everything they need. Every original feature — from ornate fireplaces to period detailing, from carved staircases to vintage floorboards — has been preserved, ensuring that every shoot feels authentic. Some of these homes are lovingly restored, some are still derelict, and others have been carefully converted to blend contemporary usability with historic soul.
Among the highlights are Boat House, Parkhurst, Gatsby, and Shelby — each bringing its own story, atmosphere, and visual drama. Whether you’re after a stately home steeped in character, a hidden gem with untouched charm, or a versatile backdrop that can be dressed to suit any narrative, these properties offer it all.
