Filming Opportunities

Film, video or photography companies looking for a fantastic location with a mixture of hilly woods, heathland and lakes need look no further than Rushmere Country Park.

Located not far from London, with easy access via the M1 and A5, the park boasts both picturesque countryside and distinctive locations. The Greensand Trust welcomes enquiries from the producers of film, television and stills photography wishing to find a fantastic backdrop for their work.

Tried and tested location

Rushmere Country Park hosted Sky 1's popular game show Wild Things, which ran for three series. Red Bull used our Xtreme Cycling Area to produce a globally viewed video featuring mountain biker Matt Jones. More recently the park was used as a location base and to film a scene in BBC One drama Mother, Father, Son featuring actress Helen McCrory and Triumph Motorcycles shot a promotional video here.

Red Bull were back at the park in 2021 to carry out a photo shoot on wild camping (we don't actually allow camping of any kind but the images are great!)

As a result we have a lot of experience of hosting and supporting commercial activities for filming at Rushmere - all proceeds support the maintenance and running of the park.

For more information, to discuss your filming requirements and to get a copy of our filming guidelines, please call Paul Hirst on 01525 234260 or email: [email protected]
