The movie Saltburn gets its title from the name of the estate that serves as the story's primary location. While Saltburn is not a real English estate, where they filmed the movie very much is.
Saltburn is itself a key character in the movie. The home of the Catton family (played by Jacob Elordi, Rosamund Pike, Richard E. Grant and Alison Oliver), it is where Oliver (Barry Keoghan) is invited to spend the summer and get a taste of the aristocratic life. The gothic, historical look makes it seem otherworldly, while elements like the maze on the estate become key to the plot.
