Venues for Product Photography

I need to borrow a leetle local knowledge for this. I have a product shoot next week for some aroma diffusers that need to be in (ideally) a luxury home style setting. A bit like the photograph below.

It's not uber big budget stuff, unfortunately. I was fortunate enough to take the picture below in a contacts home. I'm looking at luxury guesthouses, hotels and even spas, however they all lack that feel of being in a real home.

If any of you have any locations you could recommend, it'd be lovely to hear your suggestions. In terms of remuneration, there is a small venue fee available. Or, instead, some professional photography.

Just now, I'll get back to searching for Grand Design's homes in the area! :)

.....I have a product shoot next week for some aroma diffusers

There are plenty of empty student houses in the area which whilst not luxurious could probably benefit from one of these products to mask the smell of stale beer, fags, fried food and cannabis. You could create an artistic shot with this product wafting its vapours whilst in the background a stoned student sits toking on a hookah.

A selection of properties a readily available.

Rather well-shot video from a Stafford student house - the smoke here is for artistic purposes only.

Almost Hop, almost, it was 34 Weston Road not 36 that was the student house, I should know, I was the last to leave after my landlord died and his son asked us to move out because of the work that needed doing (leaking guttering to the rear that was soaking through the wall, missing roof slates + other bits and pieces).

A friend of mine lived in digs in one round there. In the '70s one still had to get up to turn a telly over and, in his haste to change from World of Sport to Grandstand, he stood on the landlady's beloved budgie and killed it.

Not all HMO's are student lets, I know of quite a few that are non-student specific. Wogan House for one.
