About this space

Chatsworth House is a rare and stately location with timeless character and cinematic appeal. Built circa 1860, this grand bluestone homestead is set within a breathtaking landscape of manicured gardens, ancient gums, and sweeping farmland along the Hopkins River in Western Victoria.

The property offers exclusive access to a suite of formal interior spaces, including a richly appointed billiard room, classic dining room, elegant living room, and bedroom—all retaining their heritage charm and ideal for editorial and period-style productions. Architectural features such as original fireplaces, high ceilings, and heritage finishes offer a refined and authentic backdrop for photo and film shoots.

Stepping outside, the homestead is framed by expansive verandahs and layered formal gardens that shift beautifully with the seasons. From a structured rose garden and perennial borders to mature European trees, sculptural fountains, and a glistening pool, every element has been designed and maintained to feel both grand and deeply atmospheric. Long sightlines across lawns, dappled light under the tree canopy, and the surrounding pastoral views give creatives endless framing opportunities.

The property is peaceful and remote, nestled among rolling hills and towering red gums—yet it’s equipped with essentials like Wi-Fi and crew access to ensure functionality. For multi-day or large-scale productions, there’s on-site accommodation available by request, and bookings can be extended to include the adjoining Chatsworth House – Longroom & Stables for even more visual variety. Discounts are available when both sites are booked together or for extended hire.

Whether you’re capturing a high-end fashion editorial, historic film production, or refined brand shoot, Chatsworth House offers a grounded, majestic backdrop with both visual and logistical depth.
