Dear reader…
It is clear to see the realm has fallen head over heels with the romance of Netflix’s Bridgerton. Its salacious gossip, enticing plots, incredible costumes, beautiful sets and hypnotic cast have left us swooning. But Bridgerton isn’t just the same old period drama we are used to, the Netflix show has flipped this genre on its head and tells a 19th century tale through a modern lens, complete with ethnic inclusivity, on trend music and an extra dose of feel-good fabulous.
If the series has left you feeling ready to make your entrance into London society this season, allow us to indulge you with our top tips on how to enjoy a modern London experience of your own, worthy of a Duke and Duchess.
Debutants prepare your best countenance and pack every ounce of your beauty and charm, for you are about to witness what our flawless capital has to offer.
The exterior shots of the Bridgerton residence were filmed at Ranger’s House, Greenwich. Of course, with an extra splash of vibrant wisteria added especially for filming. The site is an English Heritage property, so you are able to visit and explore at your leisure from as little as £10 per person.
The house itself was built in 1723 and has been used throughout history to accommodate the Rangers of Greenwich Park as well as being home to a line of aristocrats and royals until 1902. Today the house is home to the Wernher Collection, a world-class art collection compiled by Sir Julius Wernher. During your tour, you can wander through a dozen elegantly panelled rooms and admire more than 700 works of art on display, from medieval sculptures and glittering enamels to ornate jewellery and Renaissance paintings.

Rosewood London is one of the finest five-star hotels in the capital. It is an urban haven, where you can escape the hubbub of city streets for an ambience of sweet sophistication and idyllic luxury. The hotel is housed inside an Edwardian Grade II-listed building, which has been sensitively renovated with a flamboyant Edwardian style, blending traditional English heritage with a contemporary twist.
Located on one of the London’s most historic streets in Holborn, the area has played a significant role in city life after the Inns of Court were established here during the 14th and 15th century. Through time Holborn has only continued to rise in significance, as demonstrated through its elite former occupants, including Sir Francis Bacon, Sir Thomas More, John Milton and Charles Dickens. More recently the area has become a central destination for world-renowned museums, attractive art galleries and influential colleges. Plus, it lies just outside of the theatre district.

Perched on the corner of Northumberland Avenue and Whitehall Place, the Corinthia Hotel London was originally built as the Metropole Hotel in 1885. With such a long-standing relationship with London’s social scene this building not only has a fascinating history but holds more high-society gossip within its bricks and mortar than we dare imagine. If only walls could talk, eh?
When it comes to fine literature and writings of intrigue, the Metropole Hotel also had a famous and regular guest who frequently stayed here to write, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. And, as the story goes, not only is Metropole Hotel referenced in The Hound of the Baskervilles amongst others, but it provided a steady stream of inspiration for the author and his tales of fictional spies.
