World War Z films in Cornwall

The management and staff at Nansloe Manor were proud to have welcomed Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Matthew Fox, Marc Forster and their principal colleagues of the film during their stay with us for the 11 days they were filming World War Z in Cornwall.
We were delighted to have been chosen as the Best Hotel in the County for them, and thank them for their kind and generous comments in our Visitors Book.

Brad Pitt buys Shetland ponies for ALL his kids

Published:Today at 00:06

MOST kids get a My Little Pony toy to play with - but Brad Pitt's brood get the real thing.

The actor surprised his family with SIX Shetland ponies - one for each nipper - and a horse for partner Angelina Jolie.
He bought them in secret and they're now grazing in a paddock on the couple's Chateau Miraval estate in the south of France.
Brad and Angelina can already ride but they want to be able to take children Vivienne, Knox, Shiloh, Zahara, Pax and Maddox pony-trekking.
A source said: "Brad ummed and ahhed about it for a while but decided to go for it.
"He wasn't sure whether they'd find the time as training the children will take a lot of manhours but thinks it will be worth it in the long run. He thinks it's best for them to learn how to ride while they're young."
It's not like they haven't got the space - their French gaff sits on acres of land.

Although I'd put in a footie pitch or a golf course first. Tomboy Shiloh would probably prefer her own set of irons anyway.
At least Brad has a waterpark in mind - he's also had a posh new pool installed.

The source added: "Their place is huge. They have loads of fields all around the property. Their driveway is three miles long and lined with impressive fountains. They've got a new pool with slides as well now."

The star family have a lot of outdoor fun to look forward to once Brad finishes shooting his new movie World War Z.

He still has scenes to film in Scotland, Essex and Surrey yet, so it could quite easily be winter by the time they get back to France.

He'll just have to build a mini Center Parcs dome to protect them from the elements.
Every kid worth his salt loves the rapids...
