It is now the bohemian brother’s turn to find love among London’s highest society, but when has he ever been known for following the rules?

Benedict, the free-spirited and liberal Bridgerton brother, takes center stage in the highly anticipated fourth season of this romantic phenomenon. Over the years, the series has created a magical universe of Regency costumes, lingering gazes, and breathtaking landscapes. Violet Bridgerton, the loving yet stubborn matriarch of the family, uses every ball and social gathering as an opportunity to help her many children find true love, though Benedict has long remained impassible to her efforts.

After refusing for years to search for his soulmate among the upper circles of London society, Benedict finds himself captivated by an unknown woman during a masquerade Ball. Though they end the evening dancing in private and sharing a silent kiss, the mysterious woman disappears before midnight, never removing her mask and leaving Benedict with only one of her silver gloves as a lasting memory. Thus begins a reimagined Cinderella story in true Bridgerton style, where we will finally see the bohemian diamond of the season fall in love.

Everything unfolds beneath London’s grey yet nostalgic skies, with the city’s most iconic locations as a backdrop. The Bridgerton’s family home, the Queen’s palace – where she observes the gossip of high society – and the country state where much of the season takes place all contribute to this splendorous setting. Located across the United Kingdom and open to the public, these sites offer everyone the chance to feel like a true Bridgerton. Stay tuned to discover more about them!

Loseley Park, Surrey

My Cottage, as Benedict’s “humble” country house is known, is undoubtedly a fundamental setting in the development of Sophie’s love story. After being fired from her London job as a maid, the woman desperately flees to the countryside, where she begins working for a despotic nobleman. When he attempts to abuse her, Benedict intervenes and takes Sophie away, forcing them to seek refuge in the cottage during a storm. There, the couple spend a few utterly happy days getting to know each other as equals, rather than as master and maid.

These enchanting scenes were filmed over two magical weeks at Grade I-listed Loseley Park, whose marvelous interiors were constructed during the Tudor period by Sir William More. Its iconic white façade, punctuated by windows and red-brick stacks, adds a splash of colour to the English gloom. The house served as a private family residence for centuries; as a result, authentic domestic details and historical artifacts have been preserved in its rooms. Chairs, tables, and cabinets remain original pieces of furniture. Although still reserved for private living, Loseley Park opens to the public on select summer days, allowing visitors to explore the house, gardens, and nearby cottages.

Ham House, London

After discovering that Sophie cannot dance, Benedict leads her to his garden, far from the Masquerade Ball, where he teaches her a classical dance in a tender and intimate moment. The love scene takes place at Ham House, a Stuart mansion nestled on the banks of Richmond-upon-Thames, gifted by King Charles I to his courtier William Murray in 1626.

With its perfectly preserved collection of furniture and textiles, the mansion is considered one of London’s best kept secrets, as its interiors represent a rare and complete survival of 17th-century luxury. Outside, formally restored 17th-century gardens surround the house alongside the kitchen garden, where the historic Orangery Café serves light lunches and teas. Ham House has been used as the setting for several residences in the series, including Penwood House and My Cottage.

Ranger’s House, London

Right next to Greenwich Park, in the London area of Blackheat, stands Ranger’s House, the elegant and iconic exterior of the Bridgerton home since the first season. With a balanced, classical style typical of Georgian England, its imposing façade – sheltered by a wrought-iron fence beautifully decorated with floral details – proved the perfect choice to convey the importance and status the family enjoys in the exclusive English society.

The building was constructed in 1723 by Captain Francis Hosier, a naval official who appreciated the location for its proximity to the Thames and its views over London. Many notable figures have inhabited the house since then, including Philip Stanhope, Earl of Chesterfield; Princess Sophia Matilda; and the Ranger of Greenwich Park; from whom the property takes its current name. Before visiting, it is advisable to check opening times on the official English Heritage website.

Royal Crescent, Bath

As the only English city designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Bath is home to many astonishing buildings, some of which are unique in Europe. Abbey Green, Bath Street, and the Assembly Rooms are among the locations that can be spotted in Bridgerton; nevertheless, No. 1 Royal Crescent remains one of the series’ most significant settings. It serves as the Featherington house, fictionally located in London’s Grosvenor Square. The Bath site is now a museum, decorated and furnished to reflect a Georgian-style townhouse.

You can now watch Bridgerton 4 on Netflix, and don’t forget that Part 2 will be released on February 26!
