Saltram House
Saltram House
Saltram stands high above the River Plym in a rolling and wooded landscaped park that now provides precious green space on the outskirts of Plymouth. The House with its magnificent decoration and original contents was largely created between the 1740’s and 1820’s by three generations of the Parker family.
Highlights include Robert Adam’s neo-classical Saloon, exquisite plasterwork ceilings, original Chinese wallpapers and an exceptional collection of paintings including many by Sir Joshua Reynolds and Angelica Kauffman.
The Garden is predominantly 19th century and contains an Orangery and several follies, as well as beautiful shrubberies and imposing specimen trees. Located within the Garden is the Chapel Gallery offering a wide selection of local arts and crafts including original paintings, ceramics, jewellery and much more.
