Where is Beyond Paradise filmed?

The BBC show is set in the fictional town of Shipton Abbott in Devon. However the show does a lot of filming in Cornwall - how sacrilege!

Speaking before the show debuted back in 2023, executive producer Tim Key revealed that the Cornish town of Looe was used as well as other West Country locations. He explained: “When we went to Looe, which is actually in Cornwall, it was a beautiful tourist town, but also a thriving community with fishing businesses, so we felt we had found our home.

“The fictional town is set slightly back from the coast, so we have all sorts of story worlds to dive into, including the folklore of the town. The series looks beautiful, and we were lucky with the weather as well.”

Can you visit the Beyond Paradise locations?

Loee is a tourist town in Cornwall, close to the border with Devon. It is about a 40 minute drive from Plymouth.

Visit Cornwall has a list of potential accommodation options if you want to stay in Looe. It includes B&Bs, cottages and even a farm.
