Devon is one of the UK’s most-filmed counties — moorland, cliffs, harbours and country houses — and almost none of its headline locations has a venue kitchen attached. Salt Wind Catering works each on its own terms: live cooking at the unit base where access allows, drop-and-serve where it does not.

We travel to set — right across the region
Unit catering is a travel-to-location business. From our Cornwall base the self-contained mobile kitchen reaches your unit base or studio anywhere across the South West and South Wales — travel, and accommodation for multi-day shoots, agreed in writing up front.
[ 01 ] By location
Devon filming locations — catering notes
Dartmoor
Wild granite moorland — War Horse and Sherlock’s Hound of the Baskervilles country, and a period and adventure staple. Off-grid is the norm; our generators and gas handle the exposure and weather.
Clovelly
Cobbled cliff-side fishing village with a vehicle ban in the village itself. We base at the top car park and hot-box down to set.
Saltram House
National Trust mansion and parkland near Plymouth (Sense and Sensibility, 1995). Country-house unit-base with easy vehicle access.
Burgh Island
Art Deco island hotel off Bigbury (Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None). Tidal sea-tractor access — we base on the mainland and time deliveries to the tide.
Hartland Quay & Abbey
Dramatic North Devon clifftops and headland. Off-grid only — the mobile kitchen is built for it.
Lynmouth & the Valley of Rocks
Exmoor coast — wooded gorges and open headland. Cold-weather hot food a particular strength.
Powderham Castle
Castle and deer park on the Exe estuary, a regular period-drama location. Estate bases with room for vehicles and marquees.
Tavistock & the Tamar Valley
Stannary market town and World Heritage mining valley. Good vehicle access and straightforward unit-base setup.
How we approach access
Every filming location has its own constraints — vehicle access, pitch size, kit-carrying distance, mains availability (almost always none), wind exposure and landowner conditions. We coordinate with the production location manager in advance on every shoot.
Where the unit can pitch at the shoot point we run the mobile kitchen live; where access stops short we set up a sensible unit base nearby and run scheduled hot-boxed service rounds. Either way the food gets there hot and on time. We travel from our Cornwall base — travel, and accommodation for multi-day shoots, is confirmed in writing up front.
