Lyme Regis Beach
In this season of Heartstopper, Lyme Regis Beach on the south coast in Dorset serves as the beach in the first episode where Nick and Charlie share that kiss. And yes, Lyme Regis beach is just as beautiful and romantic IRL.
Whipsnade Zoo
Is it just us or did Nick’s zoo birthday party look seriously fun? The episode 3 party was shot at Whipsnade Zoo, London’s largest zoo located in Bedfordshire. There, you can see remarkable true-to-life habitats that are home to animals from all over the world.
Farnham
In season 3 of Heartstopper, Elle starts at a new school, The Lambert School of Art. The fictional school was filmed at The University Of The Creative Arts (UCA) in Farnham in Surrey, mid-way between London and Lyme Regis where the beach scene was filmed. And yes, it’s just as picturesque in real life.
Upton Court Grammar School
Darcy and Tara’s school, Higgs School for Girls, is meant to be next door to the boys’ school, Truham Grammar School in the show. It was actually filmed at the Upton Court Grammar School in Slough outside of London.
Herne Bay High School
Herne Bay High School in Kent doubles as Truham Grammar School where Nick and Charlie go to school.
