When Calls The Heart Spoilers – Where Is Jamestown Movie Set?
WCTH spoilers reveal that the Jamestown Movie Set is located on a family farm. MacInnes Farms is located in Langley, which is approximately an hour south of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Recently, new showrunner John Tinker posted some tidbits on Instagram. One of them was what the movie set looks like when filming isn’t taking place. He mentioned how it looks like a ghost town when all the props are taken away.
“All the signage, the lamp posts, flowers, and other plants, every stick of furniture is gone, making Hope Valley look like a ghost town.”

Before the Hallmark Channel TV show was used on the property, the MacInnes family was also discussing what to do with the property. They were actually having conversations with those in Hollywood to turn part of the property into a movie set. The creators of Scary Movie 4 wanted to use a portion of the cottonwood forest for a parody project, The Village. After that, the movies kept coming, Melanie MacInnes explained to Langley Advance Times.

What do you think of the show using an actual family farm for filming? Does it surprise you that it’s all part of someone’s farm and not an actual town?
