Did you know you can now borrow a sensory backpack from Saltram’s Welcome Centre? Our sensory backpacks are specially designed for children with SEND needs, and they're available at no extra cost for families. Inside, you'll find noise-cancelling headphones, cuddly toys, a torch, and even mini canvases for children to 'paint' as they explore Saltram. We want to make every visit to Saltram more inclusive, engaging and fun. These backpacks hopefully help to create a more interactive and sensory-friendly experience, making every visit more enjoyable, inclusive, and educational.
Discover the history of the Parker family and the amazing collection of items and paintings adorning Saltram's show rooms.
You can measure the width of your buggy at the Welcome Centre to see if you can bring your buggy into the ground floor of the house. There are some steps leading out through the kitchen, so the volunteers will direct you back along the route to the front door.
Alternatively, you can leave your buggy at the front of the house undercover.
Saltram's estate boundary walk is a great way to stretch your legs and walk along our buggy friendly paths towards the woods with views of the estuary.
Why not explore the quieter 'Dell walk' if you would like to venture into the estate a bit further on your adventures.
Its also a great place to bring the bikes and explore! The paths are generally level with some hilly areas for those up for a challenge. There are also dedicated cycle paths and a pump track dedicated to those littler bikers.
The garden is a great place for the family to create lasting memories. Free seasonal garden trails throughout the year get children to connect with nature and the history of Saltram.
The paths are buggy and wheelchair friendly and the borders are bursting with interest and colour all year round.
The garden is the best place to have a picnic and the lawns make a great snack spot but also the perfect place to fly a kite, play and let off some steam.
