The Space

A cinematic world where time stands still, just 24km from Melbourne. A Knight’s Tale is one of Victoria’s most immersive and transportive filming locations, offering creatives the rare chance to step directly into another era. Set across 12 acres of lush gardens, stone pathways and 34 heritage-listed buildings, the estate blends medieval charm, French provincial character and Gothic revival architecture to create a backdrop that feels lifted from a storybook or period epic.

From vine covered mudbrick cottages to grand halls, cloisters, courtyards and artist built structures, every angle offers a ready made set. Productions can move seamlessly between castle like exteriors, European village atmospheres, rustic workshops, romantic garden scenes and moody medieval textures — all without leaving the property. It is a location built for world building, perfect for fantasy, historical drama, fashion editorials, music videos, TVCs and narrative film.

A Knight’s Tale has long been trusted by the screen industry, hosting major productions including Coles Christmas campaigns, Married at First Sight, The Bachelor, Gnomes and the feature film Judy & Punch. The estate’s ability to shift between centuries and continents makes it a favourite for directors seeking authenticity and scale.

The precinct remains an active creative hub, home to working artists, studios and function spaces. Bookings for professional film and photography must be made at least seven days in advance and are subject to precinct availability. Low to high-impact shoots are considered, with full-site hire available under negotiated conditions. Drone use, smoke machines, artwork movement and catering all require prior approval, and productions must supply power and manage waste removal.

As a registered charity without ongoing government funding, all hire revenue contributes to the preservation of this extraordinary precinct — ensuring A Knight’s Tale remains a timeless creative sanctuary for years to come.

Rich in texture, history and narrative possibility, A Knight’s Tale offers filmmakers and photographers a chance to step back in time and create within a world that feels truly cinematic.
