Top tips for booking unusual locations
Top Tip
Be specific about your creative vision when you enquire. Unusual spaces attract bookings precisely because of their character, but hosts need to understand your intended use to confirm the space is right for your project. The more context you give upfront, the faster you'll get a yes.
Unusual Locations Checklist
- Access restrictions or conservation requirements
- Structural limitations for equipment and crew weight
- Listed building or heritage site conditions
- Power availability in non-standard environments
- Contingency plan for weather or unpredictable elements
What to Consider When Hiring an Unusual Space
Unusual locations deliver production value that no set build can replicate, the authenticity, the surprise, the visual distinctiveness. But by definition, these spaces weren't designed for shoots. Here's how to make sure the reality matches the vision.
Space and Layout Requirements
Think practically about what your production needs versus what the space can accommodate. A stunning underground tunnel or rooftop terrace might look perfect but have serious constraints on crew size, equipment movement, or shooting angles. Map your must-haves against the listing details before you fall in love with a space.
Technical Considerations
Power is the most common challenge in unusual spaces, generators are frequently necessary. Assess natural light carefully; striking spaces often come with unpredictable lighting conditions that change dramatically through the day. Mobile connectivity can also be limited in underground, rural, or heritage environments, which affects on-set communication and real-time file transfers.
Budget and Additional Costs
Rates vary enormously, from £300 for a quirky independent venue to £5,000+ for landmark or heritage sites. Factor in potential costs for specialist access, security personnel required by the venue, generator hire, and any location fees imposed by local authorities or heritage bodies. Always ask what's not included.

FAQs
Scouty is a location marketplace connecting production companies, agencies, and brands with spaces available for film, photo, and creative shoots. Instead of going through a traditional location agency, you can browse, enquire, and book directly, with the same quality of spaces and a faster, more transparent process.
Traditional agencies charge significant finder fees and often take days to respond. On Scouty, you search and shortlist yourself, communicate directly with hosts, and only pay a service fee on booking. You get more control, more transparency, and faster turnaround, without compromising on quality or support.
Anything that defies a standard category, think rooftops, underground tunnels, churches, libraries, fairgrounds, swimming pools, derelict buildings, boats, car showrooms, and beyond. If the space has a distinctive visual identity that makes it hard to classify, it's probably here. Browse by aesthetic, mood, or feature to find something genuinely unexpected.
It depends on the space and your intended use. Listed buildings, heritage sites, and publicly visible locations may require additional permissions or have strict conditions on what you can and can't do. Always raise your shoot type and any specific requirements in your enquiry, the host will know what's needed and can flag anything that requires extra lead time.
Unusual spaces almost always have constraints, limited power, restricted access, noise bleed, or structural limitations. The key is identifying them before shoot day, not on it. Use the enquiry stage to ask direct questions, request a recce, and confirm in writing what's included and what isn't before you confirm the booking.
Many unusual spaces are available for extended hire, particularly decommissioned or privately owned venues. Multi-day access needs to be agreed upfront and may involve additional fees for security, host supervision, or facility management. Raise it early in your enquiry so it can be factored into the booking terms.
