The Bath House is a Grade II listed Victorian building on the St Leonards-on-Sea seafront, available as a whole-house filming location for stills, commercials, drama and editorial. The great room runs sixty feet long with original double-height Victorian proportions, carrying a full private bowling lane and a 14-seat feasting table, with a private cinema room elsewhere in the house. Natural south-facing light pours through original glazing from morning to late afternoon. Ground-floor loading, four parking spaces, seafront access one hundred metres away. Producers brief direct; no agency intermediary.
