Emerald Fennel, the director of Saltburn said how she wanted to use the house as it had not been filmed before, and the house had a more relaxed feel to it because of a family already living there. The bathroom where that scene took place is actually normally a bedroom and whilst the house has over 120 hectares of garden, the maze was designed specifically for the film and then augmented using CGI. While Saltburn seems grand in the film, Felix's family treats the estate like a normal house.

“There’s not a playbook for a movie like this,” Kroll said in her Q&A with Cynthia Littleton, Variety’s co-editor in chief. “You want to lean into the provocative nature and the subversivness of it, but also try to get people to lean in and feel that it’s OK. It’s a guilty pleasure in the most extreme sense.” Kroll added that the movie proved to be a multigenerational hit when it landed on Prime Video late last year. The sybaritic lifestyles of some sections of the British nobility remains, anachronistically perhaps, a powerful narrative in contemporary film and TV. Take the famously dissolute John Hervey, the 7th Marquess of Bristol, who inherited a vast fortune but died penniless from drug addiction in 1999. The writer Anthony Haden-Guest described his parties as places where “cocaine and heroin were catered like flowers.” Hervey kept a helicopter at his country estate, and would famously steer by a road map on his knees, while snorting cocaine off it.

As mentioned, Drayton House is privately owned, so there aren't photos in abundance, but film stills and behind-the-scenes photos give a glimpse of what it's like. All of the scenes at the Saltburn estate in the movie were filmed at Drayton House, which is located in the English village of Lowick in Northamptonshire, about two hours outside of London. According to the website Parks & Gardens, the earliest record of Drayton House dates back to 1328, has gardens from around 1700 and additional landscaping done during the 18th century on its 120 hectares. It is also listed as a Grade I listed country house, which means it is "of exceptional interest."

This shot shows Emerald once again chatting to her leading actors as they sit on the wall by the river close to the university grounds. It's an important scene because it's when Oliver attempts to throw a rock into the water in honour of his late father, but he misses. And it's not just the glittering cast – consisting of Jacob Elordi and Barry Keoghan to name just two – and the eerily gripping plot that has grabbed attention, but the stunning scenery and location of the movie, too. Saltburn may have hit the cinemas a couple of months back, but thanks to the Emerald Fennell-created movie landing on Prime Video recently, fans have been watching in their droves and have become obsessed.

Felix invites Oliver to spend the summer holidays at his family’s palatial property, Saltburn, triggering a series of sexually charged and violent events. When Elspeth arrives to find Oliver [Keoghan] seated for drinks right on time, she coos witheringly, “ ‘Oh, Oliver, how punctual,’ which is not a compliment,” Pike notes. ‘How clever of you, how punctual.’ And it just chills, because you know you’ve done something wrong, but you’re not quite sure what it is. Buyers can expect to pay between £300,000 and £500,000 for a spacious seafront apartment with spectacular views, the agents said.

The red curtains were purposeful to create a specific atmosphere during a pivotal scene. Upstairs, the primary suite boasts a two-sided fireplace between the bedroom and a sitting room, vaulted wood ceilings, a luxurious spa bathroom, a large walk-in closet and a private terrace atop the covered lounge below, according to the listing. Another en-suite bedroom with a covered terrace is reached by a floating walkway overlooking the downstairs.

He once claimed Beatrice and her sister Eugenie, then 15, had attended a party with him in Jamaica where guests drank magic mushroom tea. In more recent years, several minor royals have been caught up in drug use scandals. Lord Frederick Windsor, 45, a second cousin of King Charles III, admitted using cocaine at the age of 20 and Tom Parker Bowles, son of the future Queen Camilla, was caught admitting to cocaine use in 1999. Viscount David Linley, Princess Margaret’s son, was blackmailed in 2007, by being threatened with the potential release of video footage showing alleged sexual acts and alleged cocaine use. However, Blandford mended his relationship with his father and in 2014 succeeded to the title and the estate.

She co-listed the property earlier this week with colleague Megan Whitcomb, who added that the street is not only set back from the highway, it also lies below it, cutting down on the noise as well as the traffic. The discipline of marketing has changed dramatically in recent years, with more digital tools and metrics at her disposal. But one crucial element that hasn’t changed, as Kroll discussed during her keynote conversation at Variety‘s Entertainment Marketing Summit presented by Deloitte, is the need to go with your gut instinct at times on what’s right for a given property. But as for servers handing round MDMA at the party Rebel Wilson attended, that wouldn’t happen these days, another source told The Daily Beast. Prince Harry is currently facing questions about the drug use he admitted to in his memoir by a conservative American think tank that wants to see his immigration application. And this week it was revealed that Princess Beatrice’s ex-boyfriend Paolo Liuzzo was found dead of a suspected drug overdose in a Miami hotel room.

"The containment, the unattainable beauty, the impossibly opaque rules, the sense of watching and being watched, the fear of being discovered as an interloper—all make a country house such a rich and gothic place to tell a story." The Baroque exterior was added in the 1700s, but not everything seen in the film is exactly the same in real life. The film's art department created some of the artwork and sculptures, including portraits of the fictional Catton family. The bathtub used in a scene to illustrate the obsession of Oliver Quick (Barry Keoghan) with Felix Catton (Jacob Elordi) was also constructed for the film, according to Architectural Digest. The team added topiary, art and sculptures, and brought in furniture from Lots Road Auctions in London. Some of the modern artwork was created by the art department, but the team also got permission to reproduce pieces by artists including Ryan Mosley and Colin Harris, and created portraits of the Catton family that can be seen throughout the house.

Of course, the home also comes with all the benefits of any Malibu address, including not having to pay the usual 4% mansion tax on sales in other parts of Los Angeles, and the Santa Monica Mountains as a dramatic backdrop. An en-suite bedroom and a media/bonus room with a private outdoor space are also on this floor. From the street, the box-shaped house sits discreetly at the end of a short driveway. To the right of the two-car garage, a stone pathway meanders through a landscaped courtyard and past a large rock sculpture to the architectural, double-height, glass-enclosed entrance offering immediate ocean views across the length of the home. Broad Beach Road is one of only a few select areas in Malibu set away from the Pacific Coast Highway, said Susan Monus of Malibu’s Coldwell Banker Realty office.

Other annual events include Saltburn Music Festival, Saltburn Folk Festival and Saltburn Beer Festival. “It’s popular with walkers, mountain bikers, surfers, people who just like the coast,” said Rogers. “It appeals to all kinds of buyers.”Increased investment in the town in recent years has seen new restaurants, coffee shops and boutiques open, offering residents a wider range of choice, Cowley said. Once a tiny hamlet that served as a center for smugglers, Saltburn’s modern incarnation dates to the 1860s, when the Pease family, industrialists who developed the nearby town of Middlesbrough, began to take an interest in the picturesque seaside spot.

A popular video on TikTok takes viewers to the site of Drayton House, where much of the movie was filmed. For Fennell, the house encapsulated the heady spirit of the film itself. “It was important to me that we were all in there together, that the making of the film in some way had that feeling of a summer where everyone loses their mind together,” she told Vanity Fair. But while Saltburn begins in Oxford, the majority of the action takes place elsewhere.

The English country house is a familiar character, but often the fictional houses seen on screen are the same repurposed National Trust properties. For Saltburn, about a young man who is drawn into the tempting world of the aristocratic Catton family, writer/director Emerald Fennell wanted to find a unique house that could also serve as a single location. She and production designer Suzie Davies discovered a 127-room privately owned manor in Northamptonshire that hit every mark. (As part of the agreement to film there, no one involved in the production is allowed to disclose the name of the house). The actual house was built around 1300, although the site dates back to 1066. It has since undergone several transformations, including one in the 1700s when it was refurbished with an ornate Baroque façade.

Victorian townhouses with up to six bedrooms in the center of town start from £350,000 (US$442,000), rising to around £850,000 at the top end, with a rear garden. There are also some bespoke standalone properties along the coastline between Saltburn and the nearby town of Whitby that come with significant portions of land and might sell for anything up to £900,000, Rogers said. Since it's privately owned and not a building under the control of British historical authorities, Davies and filmmaker Emerald Fennell had a little more latitude in set design. The country house where the dark and twisty Prime Video movie was filmed is an actual home in Northamptonshire, England. The film’s most talked-about and controversial moments take place at Saltburn (yes, including that bathtub scene), with the house providing a setting for parties, sex scenes and naked dances.

"We wanted this film to feel lived in and fully inhabited by our characters." When filming, the production team for "Saltburn" made several changes and additions to the Drayton House estate. Fennell told Vanity Fair that she had two requests for her production designer, Suzie Davies, when they were looking for a mansion to use for "Saltburn." The size and grandeur of the mansion drive home the huge wealth gap between Felix's family and Oliver. TikTok videos with the hashtag #draytonhouse have been viewed more than 6 million times.

Carpenter's original "Nonsense" outro goes, "This song catchier than chickenpox is / I bet your house is where my other sock is / Woke up this morning, thought I'd write a pop hit / How quickly can you take your clothes off? / Pop quiz." The 24-year-old singer referenced  Barry Keoghan's Saltburn bathwater scene in her "Nonsense" outro while performing Friday at the 2024 Coachella Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California. Carpenter's been known to tweak the lyrics of her outro while on tour with Taylor Swift, and she did it again in a nod to her rumored boyfriend. It was the very definition of “look but don’t touch.” We weren’t allowed to be in a room together, let alone swap the kind of fluids that humans need to swap not just for joy but for survival. What happens to someone when they can’t touch the thing they so desperately want to touch? The dark comedy follows Oxford University student Oliver (Barry Keoghan), who becomes fixated with an extremely rich student, Felix (Jacob Elordi).
