Lanhydrock

Super slow at updating the blog at the moment so really behind. While down Cornwall, on one of the cloudy/rainy/windy days we went to Landyrock, an old National Trust house not far from the caravan. I took a few photos.

Awesome weather.
They knew how to have dinner.
Cutest glasses and I think Absinthe. 
A serious grill. (The bread oven took 4 days to heat up!)

A good knife collection.
One of the many dead animals
Billards (and a dead tiger) :(
But an awesome library!

Ham House

Mom and Dad finally got down to visit last weekend. The weather was pretty rubbish but we still got out. On Saturday we went to Ham House for a look around.


They had a lot of the costumes from a TV series called Stitch in Time, which none of us has ever seen. But there were impressive. 


Camouflage. 

Night dress - glad fashion has changed.
 Unfortunately the upper floors were still closed for the winter so we could only see half the house. The gardens were open and they had a nice little shop and second hand bookshop (which I managed to escape with only 2 books - that's self-control!)



Dad impressed by the trees. 


Snake guard.
Mom investigating the bathroom.
On the evening we went out for a belated birthday celebration. But I was too busy talking, eating and drinking to take any photos.
