You’d be forgiven for thinking that the houses on ‘Bridgerton’ are too beautiful to be true. But quite a few real-life settings were used to film the Netflix show (though you’d have to travel all the way to the UK to see them in person).

As the world tuned in to watch Netflix’s immensely popular Bridgerton series, the hit show from creator Shonda Rhimes (the TV producer behind long-running series like Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal, and How to Get Away with Murder) there’s one thing that caught everyone’s eye beyond the storyline: the incredible homes of the show’s leading characters.
Set against the backdrop of Regency-era England, the period drama based on Julia Quinn’s novels is full of opulent mansions and palace-like abodes — and we’re gonna do our best to track down their real-life counterparts.
You’d be forgiven for thinking that some of the houses on Bridgerton are too beautiful to be true.
But quite a few real life settings served as filming locations for the massively successful Netflix show, some that you can actually go visit and admire in all their grandeur.
Among them: the ivy and wisteria-covered house of the Bridgerton family, their country home – Aubrey Hall, Lady Danbury’s house, the Duke of Hastings’ impressive residence, and the Clyvedon Castle where the Duke and Duchess move to after their wedding.
Read on to see where you’ll find each of them in real life. Spoiler alert: you’ll have to travel all the way to the UK to visit them.
The Bridgerton house
The red brick Georgian mansion portrayed as the house of the Bridgerton family is, by all definitions, dream home material.
With its elegant gated entrance, tall white windows that stand out against the carefully maintained brick façade — wonderfully framed by ivy and wisteria — the Bridgerton house is exactly what you’d expect a viscount’s home to look like.
