Beyond Paradise filming locations as cast say season 4 'really raised the bar'
Kris Marshall, Sally Bretton, Zahra Ahmadi and Dylan Llewellyn discuss 'stunning' season 4 filming locations
www.mirror.co.ukHere’s the latest on where Beyond Paradise (the Death in Paradise spin-off) has been filmed in the UK.
- Primary filming locations: Cornwall and parts of Devon in the South West. Filming has taken place in towns such as Looe, Charlestown, Saltash, and Bere Ferrers, with several scenes shot around Port Eliot House and Pentillie Castle estates. Some locations double as the fictional Shipton Abbott in Devon. These details are supported by multiple media outlets noting Cornwall as the main filming backdrop for the series.[1][2][3][7]
- On-set spots and landscapes: Dartmoor and surrounding countryside have also featured in production, contributing to the series’ moody, coastal-County atmosphere. Reports from local outlets confirm Dartmoor/Cox Tor locations used during filming. This aligns with broader coverage of West Country landscapes used for Beyond Paradise.[4][10]
- Consistency across seasons: The show has repeatedly leveraged West Country towns and coastal villages to stand in for Shipton Abbott, with Looe frequently highlighted as a stand-in town and Cornwall-based sites cited across multiple reporting periods. The pattern persists across sightings and location breakdowns for recent seasons.[5][7][1]
Illustrative note
- If you’re planning a visit: towns like Looe and Charlestown are popular with fans and offer picturesque coastal scenery that resembles the series’ filming backdrop. While you may not see a crew in action, local tourism updates and filming location pages often celebrate these spots as part of Beyond Paradise’ West Country footprint.[1][5]
