I headed first to Cotehele.
Cotehele probably started around 1300 but what you seen was built between 1485-1520 and is considered one of the least altered Tudor buildings in the country, largely because it was largely abandoned by its family (They moved to Mount Edgcumbe in Devon).
It has a lovely garden and views. And as I arrived I realised that the sun was warming up!
I was pleased to hear my first Chiffchaff and Blackcap
I sat and finished the short story I was reading (Jack Williamson)
Lunch....
I wandered down to the Quay
Well the day was youngish so I headed to Pencarrow which is next door to my hotel! On the way I saw 3 Swallows :)
Pencarrow is a Georgian house and it was open today but I was all for enjoying that sun! Not having to wear a jacket was BLISS!
I never got a picture but saw a Peacock butterfly, oh and heard and saw a Raven
Your blogger enjoying the sun......
