After two days of driving we kept things local today with a walk from the cottage to a nearby stately home. We started with the 15 minute walk to the local community run shop where we enjoyed our morning coffee and cake.
It was then another 20 minutes or so to the Mannington Estate where we wandered around the ruined church and its gardens then visited the wetland nature reserve and bird hide.
We then stopped for some lunch in the pretty tea room
and then wandered round the gardens, which weren't fabulous, and the exterior of the house.
On the walk back we stopped at our local pub about 15 minutes from home, the Walpole Arms, for an early dinner.
