Where was The Nest filmed?
In The Nest, couple Dan (Compston) and Emily (Rundle) “live in a huge house in a beautiful location just outside Glasgow”, with actor Martin Compston using his native Scottish accent.
With this in mind, the series was shot across Glasgow’s streets with shooting starting in the city centre in September last year.
Cape Cove, built on the site of a former World War Two naval outlook post, also features in the series, as does an award-winning holiday home on the Rosneath peninsula.
