As art directors ourselves, we have a pretty good idea of what you’re looking for in a photographic or film location.
A few of our clients’ inspiring, beautiful or unusual film and photographic shoot locations, among our favourite properties across Scotland, are available for large-scale events, corporate hire, weddings and hospitality.

Â
Bannockburn House offers a setting of rare authenticity for television, film, and photography. Unlike polished heritage venues, its lived-in character — layered textures, period features, and atmospheric interiors — provides directors and photographers with an adaptable canvas that feels both timeless and true. The estate’s privacy ensures discretion for high-profile productions, while its scale and variety (from grand rooms to intimate corners, gardens, and outbuildings) allow multiple narratives to be captured in a single location. With its history of rebellion and romance, Bannockburn brings built-in storylines and visual richness that few sites can match, making it a natural partner for productions seeking both beauty and authenticity.
