Fallbrooke House
Set in beautiful parkland (landscaped by Capability Brown) in the county of Hampshire, the country home of the Viscount and Viscountess Saltash, their son Robert and their daughter Emma, Fallbrooke House is located in Hampshire roughly halfway between Winchester and Andover, approximately 10 miles from each.
It was felt that the original Elizabethan house was not grand enough, so Fallbrooke House was totally remodelled and rebuilt by the second Viscount soon after acceding to the title in 1745, although the work took several years to complete. A watercolour view of the original house, painted by the first Viscountess, is on display in the library.
The grounds of the new house were originally landscaped by Capability Brown, with some slight remodelling done later on by Humphrey Repton.
