Region is key production location for US streaming firms and UK broadcasters
From walking tours in Bath to visiting the sweeping coastal scenery of Hartland Quay in Devon and stately Mapperton House in Dorset, hits from Bridgerton to the period film Rebecca are providing the southwest of England with a TV tourism and production boom.
The region has emerged as a fertile location for a string of big-budget series and films by deep-pocketed US streaming companies such as Netflix and Amazon’s Prime Video, as well as domestic broadcasters including ITV.
