Everything around
the studio floor.
A shoot is more than a room. Here is the green room, the production office, the kit, the crew and the estate the whole thing sits on.
Somewhere to
put people.
Contributors, clients and presenters need somewhere comfortable that is not the corner of a live set. Our green room serves both studios and keeps the floor clear.
- Comfortable seating for guests and clients between takes
- Nintendo 64 retro gaming station — nerves handled
- Private changing room
- Toilet
- Tea and coffee making facilities
Guest comfort
A calm space to prep, reset and wait — away from the lights and the noise.
Tea & coffee
On tap all day, plus a cafe on the estate open Wednesday to Sunday.
Three desks
Room for a producer, a client and an editor to work without crowding the floor.
Live streaming
Both studios can stream live. Monitor and coordinate from the office.
A base, not
just a room.
Three desks for planning, calls, live monitoring, rushes, coordination and client viewing. Available to clients on any studio booking.
- Three desks with room to spread out
- Client viewing and live monitoring
- Ingest, back-up and first-pass edits
- Production coordination between setups
Add the gear
to the room.
Camera, lighting and grip packages are available on top of any studio hire. Prices depend on the package and the length of the booking — tell us the job and we will quote it.

Local crew,
found for you.
Cumbria has good people in it. Finding them from outside the region is the hard part. We help source experienced local crew for your shoot — camera, sound, lighting, production support — so you are not driving a team up from Manchester and paying for the privilege.
Crofton Hall.
The studios sit in The Clocktower on the historic Crofton Hall estate, fifteen minutes west of Carlisle. It is a genuinely pleasant place to spend a shoot day, and the practicalities are sorted.
Free parking
Plenty of free parking on site, right outside the door. Unloading is a few steps, not a trek.
Cafe on site
A cafe on the estate open Wednesday to Sunday — useful for lunch runs and client meetings.
Motorhome park
A motorhome and caravan park on the estate, handy for crew staying over on multi-day shoots.
15 min from Carlisle
Straightforward run from the city, the M6 and the Lake District.
Get the space, the kit
and the crew in one go.
Send us the brief and the dates. We will put together what the shoot actually needs — not a package you have to work around.
