AT HOME WITH THREE GENERATIONS OF HER FAMOUS FAMILY SOPHIE CONRAN OPENS THE DOORS TO THE STUNNING WILTSHIRE HOME THAT SHOWCASES HER UNIQUE STYLE

Three generations of the legendary Conran lifestyle dynasty – Sophie Conran, her mother Caroline and her daughter Coco – all meet us at the door of beautiful Salthrop House.

On the edge of the Marlborough Downs in Wiltshire, set in lush gardens and surrounded by woods and meadows, Sophie’s Georgian manor is, unsurprisingly, the place where the three women most love to spend time together.

Sophie, 58, is the daughter of the late Sir Terence Conran, the design guru who transformed the way we live with his interiors store Habitat, revolutionised the restaurant scene with a string of glamorous venues and founded London’s Design Museum.

During her marriage to Sir Terence, Caroline, 84, became famous herself, as the food writer who gave Br i t i sh home cooking a whole new flavour. Sophie credits both her parents for the success she's achieved in her own career, showcased in her online home and gardens company sophieconran.com.

As for 27-year-old Coco, she has taken up the fashion mantle of her uncle, Sophie's brother Jasper Conran, who was among the favourite couturiers of Diana, Princess of Wales. She launched her own sustainable womenswear brand, Coco Conran, in 2019.

With Sophie's son Felix and brothers Sebastian, Tom and Ned all following in her father's footsteps - Felix and Sebastian as product designers, Tom and Ned as restaurateurs - it's easy to see how the Conran family have made an indelible mark on the nation. And Salthrop House provides a perfect example of their irresistible style.

Sophie, how long have you lived here?

“I bought the house around ten years ago. It’s been both a joyous and, at times, stressful journey to turn it into the haven it is today.”

What made you decide to buy it?
