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 20 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.
