The Old Monastery built in 1157 lies across a narrow, sheltered valley which winds its way to the spectacular Atlantic Coast.

The estate has been used successfully as a film location for many years. With its vast diversity of stunning countryside and coastline, the abbey with its beautiful architecture, peaceful surroundings, reawakening gardens and parkland, the estate is a wonderful location for still shoots and all forms of filming with many hidden gems in total seclusion.

With 5 miles of unspoilt Atlantic coastline including a hotel, the bay, the huge cliffs and the sandy and rocky beaches, there is much to offer the director and location manager.
The local village has good small shops, a post office and a garage. There are many excellent hotels, pubs and B&B’s within easy reach.

The Monastery has been used not only as a location but also as a production base. It contains many different periods of architecture and decoration from mediaeval to Georgian, Regency and Victorian with a strong Gothic influence. There is plenty of hard-standing near to the house for vehicles and the Abbey has 24 telephone lines which can be reconnected at any time. Helicopters can land within 100 metres of the Abbey.
