where was the salt path filmed
“The Salt Path” was filmed mainly along the South West Coast Path in England, especially in Somerset, Devon and Cornwall, with some additional scenes shot in Gloucestershire, West Sussex and Monmouthshire.
Main filming areas
- Somerset – Key locations include Minehead (the official start of the South West Coast Path) and Porlock Weir, plus nearby spots like Bossington Hill and North Hill around the Minehead area.
- Devon – Coastal locations used include Lynton to Heddon’s Mouth, Ilfracombe, Clovelly and Hartland Quay, which provide the dramatic cliff and sea backdrops.
Cornwall locations
- North Cornwall – Filming took place at Padstow, Fistral Beach (Newquay), Holywell Bay and Port Quin, all used to capture the wild Atlantic coastline that mirrors the couple’s journey.
- South Cornwall – Rame Head and the wider Rame Head Peninsula were used for some of the most atmospheric headland scenes.
Other notable spots
- Gloucestershire & West Sussex – Some scenes were filmed in Aust, Gloucestershire (including a village pub) and on East Head at West Wittering in West Sussex, which doubles for a South West beach in the story.
- Monmouthshire (Wales) – Chepstow in Monmouthshire also appears, tying the film into the wider network of UK coastal walking routes near the Severn Estuary.
