Evidence before enthusiasm
Beyond Paradise location evidence
A transparent matrix separating verified real-world locations from episode-level associations that still require scene-by-scene confirmation.

| Pentillie Estate and Quay Cottage Verified | Pentillie's riverside cottage, quay and estate landscapes have represented important family and houseboat settings. | Series 3 E1 · Series 4 E5 | Used from Series 1 onward; episode tags are limited to source-supported appearances. |
| Port Eliot Verified | Port Eliot states that its Sir John Soane-designed stable yard hosted Beyond Paradise filming. | Series 1 E3 · Series 2 E6 · Series 3 E5 · Series 4 E1 | Production use is documented; no unsupported onscreen identity or episode assignment is claimed. |

Important: an episode link can indicate relevant production geography without proving that a particular building or viewpoint appears in that case. Only a scene-level source should upgrade that claim.
