Film & TV Locations Near Basingstoke
North Hampshire offers a remarkable concentration of diverse filming locations — from Tudor ruins and National Trust estates to purpose-built studio facilities — all within 25 miles of Basingstoke.
Basing House (Old Basing, 2 miles east of Basingstoke) contains the ruins of one of the largest Tudor palaces ever built, a standing 1535 Great Barn, fishponds, and an orchard. The site is officially registered for commercial filming by Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council. Its combination of ruined brick architecture, open grassland, and atmospheric stonework provides a versatile period setting — our supercars photograph dramatically against the ancient gatehouse walls.
Highclere Castle (17 miles north, near Newbury) is one of the UK's most recognised filming locations as the exterior and interior setting for ITV's Downton Abbey and both feature films. The Victorian baronial castle sits in 5,000 acres of Capability Brown-landscaped parkland. Available for commercial shoots by arrangement with the estate, our fleet vehicles provide period-appropriate or contemporary contrast against the castle's grand Victorian facade.
Shinfield Studios (20 miles north via M3/M4, RG2) opened in June 2024 with 18 sound stages covering nearly 1,000,000 sq ft — one of the UK's most significant new studio facilities. Easily accessible from Basingstoke for vehicle deliveries to major streaming and feature film productions. Our fleet provides hero car work, static display, and motion filming for productions that require both a studio base and authentic Hampshire location shoots.
Milestones Museum in Basingstoke recreates Hampshire street scenes from Victorian times through the 1930s, with period buildings, an operational pub interior, and vintage vehicles — all under controlled indoor conditions. The museum is available for period drama and documentary filming. The Amazon Prime spy series Citadel (2023) used the Festival Place area of Basingstoke. Hampshire's agricultural countryside provides authentic rural period drama backdrops throughout the year.
