Saltram House
Near Plymouth is a beautiful mansion called the Saltram House. Currently it is cared for by the National Trust.
This home definitely looks like something from Jane Austen's era, in fact, it was used in the filming of "Sense and Sensibility." It has some very small connection with Jane Austen. The lady of the house kept in correspondence with Austen herself.
This home is an amazing museum of art. Some of the rooms like the one pictured above, were designed by artist, Robert Adam. There are many, many portraits hanging throughout this house. The grounds and gardens are extensive, but we didn't have time to visit them.
