About the Filming Locations around Tetbury
The screen adaptation of Rivals heavily showcases the unmatched beauty of Gloucestershire, with Tetbury serving as the structural heart of the show. Longtime home to Dame Jilly Cooper herself, the historic market town was used extensively for filming. Its elegant streets, independent boutique shops, and distinctive architecture provided the perfect backdrop for Rutshire's local town.
Just minutes away lies Chavenage House, the atmospheric Elizabethan estate that stars as 'The Priory' (home to the O'Hara family), alongside the prestigious Beaufort Polo Club, which takes centre stage for the high-society sports fixtures.
When you book a getaway through our exclusive Tetbury collection, you are perfectly positioned to explore these famous filming spots, traditional country pubs, and historic market towns for yourself.
