Biddestone Village Wiltshire.

Biddestone is a small, rural and rather picturesque Cotswold village in north west Wiltshire, England, with a population of 457 in 2001. It is situated near Castle Combe, Corsham, Giddeahall and Chippenham.
Biddestone has a small Norman church (St. Nicholas's), two pubs (the Biddestone Arms, and the White Horse) and a duck pond situated in a green at the centre of the village. There are also two smaller chapels, both of which are closed.
The settlement dates from Saxon times, though most buildings are from the late 18th century. Towards the edges of the village, the buildings tend to be from the 20th century.
Biddestone is located just inside the eastern boundary of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Biddestone was a filming location for the TV film Agatha Raisin , and for The Christmas Candle (2013).


Biddestone is the primary location for the fictional town of Carsely. Most of the exterior shots that depict lush, natural surroundings have been filmed almost entirely at Biddestone. The show’s pilot which was aired as a television movie, ‘Agatha Raisin and the Quiche of Death’ has been predominantly filmed in Biddestone.
