LONDON, England – The Great British Bake Off has sparked its own wave of tourism, with fans booking stays at the country house bed and breakfast where the show is filmed.

The owner of Harptree Court in Somerset said guests had been visiting specifically to see “where the magic happens” and posing for photographs on the “Bake Off bridge”.

Linda Hill said the fans were of all ages and both sexes and often chose the venue to celebrate a special occasion.

“It’s an iconic place,” she said. “You don’t always see the house in the shots but you do see them walking over the bridge on the show.

“Sometimes guests would arrive when the filming was going on and it was wonderful to see the expressions on their faces. They would say ‘Oh my God, that’s so incredible.”

“Others come because they know the show was shot here. They say ‘we thought it looked so beautiful and we wanted to go and see where Bake Off was filmed.”

The hit BBC program started filming at the 18th century house and grounds two years ago, with the last two series of the program shot there.

After a phone call “out of the blue” from a location scout, Mrs Hill and her husband Charles allowed the Bake Off team “literally to take over the house” for 20 weekends between March 2012 and this summer.

During filming, the Georgian B&B served as a production office, catering hub and green room, while Mary Berry, one of the judges, could often be found “hugging the Aga” in Mrs Hill’s kitchen on chilly days.

Mrs Hill, 56, professed herself a big fan of the show and said she owned all Berry’s recipe books.

But she was not star-struck by the food writer, she said, insisting everyone received the “same treatment”.
