Parlour Farm, MK45

Parlour Farm is a rare gem of a location offering multiple unusual sites for filming and photoshoots across 2000 acres of open fields, wildflower meadows and historic buildings. Spread between two working farms, one hosts the milking parlour and is home to a large herd of dairy cows, whilst the second was once King Henry VIII’s hunting lodge. The farm offers two homes for shoots including a smaller timber framed farmhouse and the impressive 16th century manor house with sensitively restored interiors. The latter retains its charm set amongst landscaped gardens and parkland which include unusual later additions such as a derelict Victorian blacksmiths, ice house with pit and isolated stone monument in the woods. Parlour Farm offers a wealth of historical charm and character set against the backdrop of a working farmyard with cattle sheds, brick barns and its very own clocktower.
