<P> `` The Hounds of Baskerville '' took around four weeks to film , with shooting mostly taking place throughout May 2011 . Additional scenes were shot later in July and August . Filming on location mostly took place across South Wales , with parts of the episode being shot on location in Dartmoor , even though the producers did not originally intend to do so . The first day took place at a cemetery . The producers were looking for a village in South Wales that was `` very English - looking . '' Scenes of the fictional `` Cross Keys '' pub were filmed at the Bush Inn in St Hilary , Vale of Glamorgan . The production team donated £ 500 to the village after filming had finished . In one scene , after Sherlock first witnesses the hound , Sherlock makes deductions about a mother and son from a nearby table . In filming the scene , Cumberbatch has to recall multiple pages of monologue in front of camera , and had to talk faster than he was used to . </P>
