Visit West Cornwall

The West Cornwall Film Office promotes and assists film-making in West Cornwall to ensure that your shoot runs as smoothly as possible. Film-makers have been attracted to our area for many years so we are used to dealing with all kinds of filming requests.

As part of Visit Cornwall, our free service offers:

• Information on locations

• Liaison with all necessary council departments and key local contacts such as the police

• Local community contacts

• Advice on crew-friendly accommodation

The West Cornwall Film Office operates a permitting system which ensures that you get the right permissions and the right people know you're filming.

If you are planning to film in the West of Cornwall please contact Tamsin Richards for an Application to Film form and Code of Practice:
Telephone: 01736 336720
Email: tamsin.richards@cornwall.gov.uk

Please send in the form as soon as possible, preferably with a week's notice. But give us a call if this is a problem and we will do our best to accommodate you, especially if it's a simple documentary shoot.

We also require a copy of your Public Liability Insurance document with the application form.

Visit Cornwall is film friendly and is accredited by South West Screen.
