Visitors will discover that back in the late-19th century, its owners Lord and Lady Robartes had a room for just about everything: sitting, smoking, playing billiards, churning milk, storing servants. Also, that Lady Robartes did some churning of her...

Doesn't Polruan look perfect? Up and out early on a simmeringly hot Devon morning which, just two miles from home, becomes a Cornish morning as I cross the ancient little fifteenth century bridge over the Tamar. There's something innately right about entering Cornwall via Horsebridge . I was parking in Fowey in record time to meet up with Justine Picardie before her event on Daphne and it goes without...
