Cotehele
A Tudor house approached by way of a medieval barn, gatehouse, and three courtyards. Not much has changed since it was built between 1485 and 1539: the floors slope, the rooms are dark, and there is no electricity. Wonderful Tudor atmosphere, great hall doubles as an armoury. Tudor and later wooden furnishings. Working water mill on grounds, with wooded walks.

Lanhydrock
House, courtyard and church built 1640, though largely restored in 1881 following a fire. See both family and servants rooms, furnished in the Edwardian style, including extensive kitchens. Long (116 feet) Jacobean gallery survived the fire, and you can be glad it did, for it has a wonderful plasterwork ceiling.
