Coleton Fishacre
Coleton Fishacre is a property consisting of a garden and a house in the Arts and Crafts style, situated in Kingswear, Devon, England. The property has been in the ownership of the National Trust since 1982.
==The house==
The house at Coleton Fishacre was built as a country home for Rupert D'Oyly Carte and his wife, Lady Dorothy Carte, between 1923 and 1926.〔(Coleton Fishacre ) at The National Trust website, accessed 12 November 2009〕 The architect was Oswald Milne, a former assistant to Edwin Lutyens, who designed the house with the principles of the Arts and Crafts Movement in mind: simplicity of design and quality of craftsmanship. The influence of this older movement notwithstanding, the house is influenced by its own time, especially in its Art Deco interior.〔(History ), NationalTrust.org, accessed 16 May 2012〕 The structure is built of local slate rubble with a Delabole slate roof.〔(Coleton Fishacre: National Monuments Record ) at PastScape, accessed 23 August 2010〕 The design has been twice featured in ''Country Life'' magazine: 31 May 1930 and 25 October 2007, the latter of which shows full colour photos of the house (exterior and interior) and the gardens. The property runs down to the sea, where there are some outbuildings.〔
Although built as a country home, Lady Dorothy lived in the house as her primary residence by the later 1920s.〔 After the Cartes' divorce in 1941, their daughter, Bridget D'Oyly Carte, took over the house, which her father, who lived in London, would visit for long weekends. She sold the house in 1949, after his death, to Rowland Smith, owner of the Palace Hotel in Torquay.〔See the ''Country Life'' magazine, 25 October 2007 feature on the house and gardens.〕〔
