<p><a href="https://wilts.muddystilettos.co.uk/things-to-do/rivals-filming-locations-wiltshire/"><em>Rivals</em>&nbsp;</a>might be set among the&nbsp;Gloucestershire&nbsp;and&nbsp;Wiltshire&nbsp;Cotswold hedgerows, but let’s be honest – Berkshire boasts ample space for scandal, seduction and lewd behaviour. With season two of the award-winning series having officially landed&nbsp;(clear your diary), we’ve let our imaginations run wild with these local abodes that wouldn&#8217;t look out of place on set. To quote the show’s tagline, “‘whoever said country life was boring was clearly in bed with the wrong people.” Here are some of the hottest Berkshire properties on the market right now.</p>

<p>Part country manor, part perpetual house party, for men like Rupert Campbell-Black who like to, ahem, entertain, this 12-bed mansion house is practically the mothership of go big or go home. Putting the 16 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds aside, the brand spanking new residence boasts state-of-the-art amenities, a ballroom, gentleman&#8217;s club-style bar, cinema room, and Charles Yorke-designed kitchen. Oh, and did I mention the detached leisure complex with an indoor swimming pool, hydrotherapy pool, sauna, steam room, changing areas, and a shiny gym? Yep, there&#8217;s that too. The grounds also include a private lake, kitchen garden, a dedicated children’s play garden, and a tennis court (best played naked, obvs). Wink, wink.</p>



<p><em>£13.5m</em></p>

<p>Where else could journalist, broadcaster and TV exec Declan O’Hara alternate between righteous fury, a stiff drink and an even stiffer moustache than here?&nbsp;Hawkridge Hill is a magnificent late Victorian country house with sweeping drive, 11 bedrooms, and a self-contained 4-bedroom wing (privacy please!), which is set in 15 acres of gardens and parkland within the Berkshire Downs. It&#8217;s hot to trot, baby. Take a dip in the outdoor pool or shoot your shot in the traditional billiard room. This is a country crash pad dripping in character and splendour.</p>

<p>We can only imagine Lord Tony Baddingham wafting around the halls of this Grade II-listed Georgian hottie which comes with its own&#8230; vineyard? Erm, yes please. A whopping 15.5 acres of vines were planted in May 2022, so brace for epic yields now coming into full production. Honestly, toasting your own wines at a soiree here is an absolute flex. Nectar aside, there&#8217;s seven bedrooms and six bathrooms to be found, plus a self-contained cottage, paddock, pond, and a measly 146 acres of land. The 3,000-bottle wine cellar is practically a given.</p>

<p>For something a little more on the modern side of the scale, this 8-bed showstopper wouldn&#8217;t look out of place in the pages of a glossy interiors mag. After being greeted by a floating staircase, snoop around and you&#8217;ll discover style in every nook and cranny. I&#8217;m talking lofty 3m-high ceilings and full-height windows, a Häcker kitchen, walk-in wardrobes, scenic balconies, and even a detached annexe. Motor heads will appreciate the showroom-style garage, heated and insulated, with ample space for four vehicles.&nbsp;Sharp, stylish, and built for a woman who knows her worth, Cameron Cook would eat this place up.</p>

<p>You can picture Freddie Jones striding in, taking one look around, and deciding this is exactly what £5.75 million of hard-earned success is supposed to feel like. Brace yourself for serious property porn. I&#8217;m practically swooning at the Georgian facade, sweeping country hills, and 32 acres of gardens, lawns, and paddocks &#8211; best observed from the balcony. And phewww &#8211; that outdoor pool looks inviting to say the least. Lush.</p>
