Cotehele is a medieval manor house with the buildings virtually untouched since tudor times.
The upper gardens are more formal, as is the terrace which leads to the wilder valley garden.
The upper gardens....
After lunch off to the house.
This is a artificial arm for fixing to suits of armour!
Terrace and valley garden
No cake today. Had a Cornish Cheese Tea - 2 cheese scones and 2 pieces of Cornish Cheese and a pot of tea. It was shared!!
A lovely day, Cotehele is well worth a visit.

Hi Janine

Good heavens, you still have butterflies and dragonflies about! I love the picture fourth up from the bottom. I'm sure there are fairies there. Great shots all.
I forgot to mention the duck statues, delightful. Love that bed as well. I don't know about the "wallpaper" in that room though, lol.
