As it is rather wet and miserable here today. I thought a couple of pics from the Summer might add a little cheer.
On the way to Kingswear, an attractive place to visit is Colleton Fishacre
This is a National Trust property and Garden with a rare and exotic plant collection set in a secluded coastal valley, the house is Art Deco a past home of the Doyle Carte family of Gilbert and Sullivan fame, a frequent visitor to the house I was told was Noel Coward. The main reason to go to Colleton is the gardens they are stunning with numerous walks for the energetic or not so energetic. Also the food is good!!!
The second is of the freshwater pool at Shoalstone, this has been recently restored by the local council one of there better ideas. The only problem with it is the locals do have a tendency to throw broken bottles into the pool.
