This contemporary converted barn in North Devon is available to hire for any photo shoot, from product launches to wedding photography
8 March 2021
The Plantation near Chulmleigh is a modern home with pitched ceilings, a floating staircase, and serene bedrooms with enormous windows looking out onto rural North Devon.
Outside, the wood-clad exterior fuses modern architecture with the natural world, a pond mirrors the indoor swimming pool through the glass, and 1,200 newly planted trees form the beginnings of a fledgling woodland and orchard.
A rustic thatched outhouse and a pillared barn, which once housed farm machinery, together with modern design ensure this is the perfect location for various styled photography, from product launches to bridal shoots.
It’s bright and spacious, as the floor-to-ceiling windows flood the open-plan living area and bedrooms with light – the perfect setting for capturing images. The house features three double bedrooms, and one bedroom with a single bed, all en suite.
Cosy corners can be found within the shoot location’s walls, from a snug with pool table, to standalone bathtubs overlooking the patchwork countryside.
A fire pit sets the scene for winter-themed shoots outside and various patios highlight the property’s neat angles compared to the irregular patterns of the surrounding farmland.
With a herb garden, water feature, several lawns and plenty of parking space, The Plantation is an ideal property for filming, photography and magazine cover shoots. Even if you are not looking to hire the house, you will certainly be inspired by its design and finish, perhaps giving you some ideas to update your own home.
