Description:
Grade II listed Palladian mansion set in parkland. Addington Palace was completed in 1778 by Robert Mylne and extended in 1828 with the addition of a library and chapel, and altered again in 1900 by Richard Norman Shaw. There are five different floors within the palace. The first floor is an underground stone country club basement, the next two floors are opulent stately rooms with high ceilings. The Great Hall has an enormous marble fireplace, an exquisite French chandelier, hand-carved architrave, silk wall coverings and minstrel's gallery. The fourth floor has a wide derelict corridor area with 16 rooms which can be used for set-builds, and the fifth floor is an attic. There are many rooms available on each floor as well for breakout areas like hair & makeup, costume changing, art prop storage, green areas and celebrity private rooms. On the underground basement floor there are additional rooms available for prop and production storage spaces that can be hired for long periods of time as a holding area, as well as office spaces for any art crew or director meetings, or blackout rooms for editing suites (some rooms have no windows). The palace has accommodation available for cast and crew as well. Addington Palace accommodation (for up to 42 people) is a stone’s throw away from the building. Addington Palace has a unit base split into two areas and can be hired separately or altogether. Being a one-minute walk away from the palace with access to water and no height restrictions, it is available for all size of unit bases from short, medium and long-term hires. The unit base has 200 parking spaces. This can be for productions filming on site of the palace or used for a unit base for a nearby location in Surrey, Croydon, Greater London, etc.
