Lacock

Chippenham, Wiltshire, England

Lacock Abbey's cloisters became Hogwarts corridors and Professor Snape's classroom in the Harry Potter films, and the unspoiled medieval village around it — owned in its entirety by the National Trust, with no satellite dishes, overhead cables or modern shopfronts allowed — has doubled for Downton Abbey, Cranford, and the BBC's Pride and Prejudice.
