Man vs. Baby locations
Trevis is freezing his socks off in a rural cottage in Aldbury, a small village in Hertfordshire.
The Aldbury Village Store is located in the centre of this quaint village, home to fewer than a thousand residents.
The next scene features Aldbury’s village pond, the old manor cottage, and the exterior of the Greyhound Inn, the local pub.

St Aldwyn’s Church of England Primary School was filmed at Longfield Hall, a Victorian theatre and community space built in 1904 in Camberwell, South London.

The social services building was an empty office space in Denham, Buckinghamshire, with a Toby Carvery restaurant visible in the background.

Although Tring Station is the closest to Aldbury, it is a rather unremarkable modern building.
Instead, the production used Ongar railway station, which stands in for Tring, on the Epping Ongar Railway heritage line in Essex, about 22 miles northeast of central London.

After emerging with baby Jesus in Piccadilly Circus, Travis goes through Piccadilly Arcade, an elegant Edwardian covered shopping arcade in St James’s, built in 1909.
He is searching for the house location on Jermyn Street, which is situated in the same area.

The Man vs. Baby house
The millionaire’s luxury London penthouse exterior is Trinity House, located on Tower Hill, next to the Four Seasons Hotel.
Trinity House is a historic building completed in 1796 that still serves as the headquarters of the institution responsible for lighthouses and maritime navigation aids.
As seen in the image, the top of the building, called St Edmund’s House in the series, was added using CGI.

Don’t try to find it on Airbnb: the interior of the Schwarzenboch family penthouse suite doesn’t exist, as it was a magnificent studio-built set with lots of fake marble.
The shopping scenes were filmed at Panzer’s Delicatessen, a renowned family-run supermarket in St John’s Wood, founded in 1944.

In the second episode, Trevis receives a call outside Turnbull & Asser, a prestigious British shirtmaker on Jermyn Street.

The scene with the cleaning lady in the third episode was filmed on the small Seething Lane, between Carter’s Café and All Hallows-by-the-Tower, London’s oldest church.
