Anthony Bridgerton — Season 2 filming locations in Bath

Season 2 belongs to Anthony and Kate. Jonathan Bailey's Viscount and Simone Ashley's Kate Sharma dominated 2022 — and Bath's Georgian streets provided the backdrop. The Royal Crescent, the Holburne Museum, Great Pulteney Street, the Assembly Rooms: here is exactly where it was filmed, and how to see it for yourself.

Jonathan Bailey as

Anthony Bridgerton — Viscount Bridgerton

Based on: The Viscount Who Loved Me (Book 2, Julia Quinn)

  • Anthony Bridgerton is the eldest Bridgerton son — the Viscount, responsible for the family since his father's death. He carries the weight of duty and family honour throughout the series.
  • Season 2 ('The Viscount Who Loved Me') centres on Anthony's search for a suitable viscountess, and his reluctant, antagonistic fall for Kate Sharma. Simone Ashley joined the cast as Kate in Season 2.
  • Jonathan Bailey plays Anthony across all four seasons. His Season 2 arc became one of the most-watched Netflix programmes of 2022.
  • Anthony's Bath filming locations concentrate on the most formal Georgian settings: the Royal Crescent, the Assembly Rooms, and Great Pulteney Street.
  • Kate Sharma's scenes use the Holburne Museum exterior (the Sharma family residence). The chemistry between Kate and Anthony at the Holburne gardens is one of the season's most-referenced scenes.
  • Jonathan Bailey has spoken publicly about Bath as a filming location multiple times — the city's architecture creates a period authenticity difficult to find elsewhere.
