Saltram at Christmas

We went to Saltram planning to have a short walk around the gardens between showers.  At the reception we were told that a tour of the House was just about to start, so we joined this.  The theme of the tour was "Saltram at Christmas".  Some of the rooms were decorated for Christmas and as we walked around the guide explained how Christmas was celebrated through the ages at Saltram.

After looking around the house we did get our short walk around the gardens.  We were surprised to see the first snowdrop.


There were also some other flowers still out, such as white hydrengeas and another flower I did not recognise. that looked like it was related to orchids.  Some of the camelias were also showing colour.
