The Crown’s showrunners did not head to France to film this scene. Instead, they filmed this and various other interior shots at West Wycombe Park, an elegant National Trust property in Buckinghamshire. An Italianate country home, the landscaped park looks out over a historic village and hillside.
How to visit: West Wycombe Park is open from April to October, with tickets starting at £11. The village and hillside are open to the public all year round, without a fee. Find out more on the West Wycombe Park website.
On screen: Windsor Castle Royal LodgeIn reality: Basildon Park
The 30-room Royal Lodge is located about three miles south of Windsor Castle. It was the Queen Mother’s residence from 1952 until her death in 2002, and has more recently been occupied by Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson.
In The Crown, its stand in is the 18th-century Basildon Park in Berkshire. The National Trust property was restored by the Lord and Lady Iliffe in the 1950s; it’s now decorated with Old Masters and traditional furnishings. Its historic parkland is ideal for a crisp, winter stroll.
How to visit: The House, grounds, shop and tearoom are open most days from 10am until 4pm. Access to the whole property costs £16.50 per adult. Find out more on the Basildon Park website.

The Royal Exchange in London is used for various glamorous locations in the sixth series, including as hotel corridors and a jewellery shop. It’s no surprise: The Royal Exchange was built in 1566 as the first purpose-built centre for trading stocks. It was decimated by fires in both the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, was damaged by bombing in the Second World War, and returned to its trading floor origins in the 1980s.
