Large Indoor Spaces for Filming
We have a unique Events Centre featuring two large and versatile rooms, The Banqueting Room and The Heywood Room (each approx. 220m²). These rooms provide the perfect blank canvas in which film sets can be created. Adjacent to the Events Centre is a huge indoor archery range (over 70m in length), also a perfect covered space in which to build sets.

Large Outdoor Spaces for Filming
The Banqueting Room is light and airy with 3 sets of French doors leading out to the idyllic and secluded Secret Garden, with amazing views stretching down the valley. Next to the Archery Range is the Playing Field, a very large, flat grassed area by which the babbling Eaton Brook flows. There is also a quintessentially English Croquet Lawn as well.

Unique Spaces for Filming
The estate is home to eight holiday cottages, all unique in their style and finish, including the dramatic Manor House, dating from the 17th century and built on the site of a much older dwelling traced back to the 11th century Norman Conquest. Set at the heart of the estate, The Manor House stands in an acre of walled gardens, with Eaton Brook flowing at the bottom of the garden. The house itself retains its original style with a wealth of interesting historic features, such as Timber framed walls, exposed oak floors, doors and beams, original flagstones and even an indoor well.

Testimonials
I have never had such positive feedback from the crew about a location than after we shot at Eaton Manor. The team there are incredible, the space is ideal, the air is so fresh and the accommodation is right there on site. The technical crew found the facilities outstanding and in the high-pressure environment of a film shoot, it was priceless to work in such a clean, relaxed and accommodating venue. It’s the real deal. As one of the head crew put it: ‘If only every shoot was like at Eaton Manor!’

Faced with an unusually challenging set build, we were all absolutely delighted with the flawless facilities and environment at Eaton Manor. Long operational hours and some very specific technical challenges were easily overcome in large part down to Eaton Manor’s infrastructure and fantastic staff. No request was too much trouble and we genuinely believe the set would not have been as good had we built it at a different location. I regard Eaton Manor as having been absolutely indispensable for this shoot.
