2 min readThe historic manor at Surrey’s Loseley Park was used as a main filming location for Bridgerton’s fourth season.
It provides a romantic backdrop with its 1,400 acres, lake views, and richly preserved Tudor interiors.
While you can’t stay in the manor itself, visitors can book the nearby Chestnut Lodge cottage on the estate grounds.
Let’s be honest, Loseley Park Manor is a far cry from the average English countryside cottage. But that contrast is exactly what made it the perfect filming location for Benedict Bridgerton’s fictional love nest in the latest season of Netflix’s Bridgerton.
Dubbed “My Cottage” within the Regency-era storyline, the manor serves as the primary setting in the third episode of season four. The show’s central couple retreats to the countryside, isolated from society and left with only each other for company. Within the manor’s historic rooms, their romance unfolds, set against the backdrop of rolling hills and a sunlit lake on the estate’s sprawling 1,400 acres. While the love story may be fictional, we’re happy to report that the sheer dreaminess of the location is not.
Located in Surrey, just outside London, Loseley Park is a historic estate and popular visitor destination. Its grounds include a two-and-a-half-acre walled garden composed of distinct “rooms,” each defined by carefully curated planting schemes. Visitors can also explore a tearoom, gift shop, and farm shop on-site.
The Tudor manor itself is about 400 years old and is rich in English history. It houses original paneling from Henry VIII’s Nonsuch Palace, a portrait of Anne Boleyn wearing the rare “HA” pendant, and even a mulberry tree rumored to have been planted by Queen Elizabeth I.
Built by Sir William More—an Elizabethan courtier and member of Parliament who earned the favor of the queen—the home has remained in the same family for more than 500 years. Today, it is still privately owned by the More-Molyneux family, though the estate opens seasonally (typically from April through September) for public tours, allowing visitors to explore its storied interiors and walk in the footsteps of their favorite Bridgerton characters.
Notably, Benedict isn’t the only Bridgerton brother to film here. Season two’s main bachelor and eldest brother, Anthony Bridgerton, famously fell into the same lake where Benedict shows off his breaststroke.
There is one catch: while you can’t stay in Benedict’s exact room, you can stay on the estate grounds. Loseley Park offers a smaller, rentable cottage called Chestnut Lodge. While more modest than the main house, it includes a cozy sitting room, a double bedroom with an ensuite, and a fully equipped, self-serve kitchen.
Chestnut Lodge is available to book exclusively through the Loseley Park website. It’s about as close to a Regency romance as we might get!
