Tehidy on a Sunny Afternoon

Yet another lovely sunny day and we decided to drive up to Tehidy Country Park for a walk  after lunch.  I texted Jo and asked if she would like to join us with Fred and she was very keen.  She hadn’t been to the entrance off Cot Road before and so she followed us up there and we parked together.  We strolled through walking alongside the golf course and I heard a noise that I recognised.  I used to live near a golf course, knew the sound of a ball going astray and spotted it amongst the trees.  I picked it up and went over to the fence to see two chaps walking down.  I think he was quite pleased to get his ball back!

We worked our way down to the cafe where Jo treated us to coffee and cake.  It was a very yummy lemon cake which we thoroughly enjoyed while the boys quenched their thirst with the water provided for dogs …

There was a pond just beside the cafe …

The bluebells are just beginning to flower and they look lovely already.  Give them a few weeks and there will be a carpet of them.

As we returned I took a couple of photos of the golf course and sent them to Simon.  He has played Tehidy in the past and I like to test his knowledge of the course.  I asked him where we were …

The answer was immediate – 4th green, 5th tee!!

Not far to go now so a few more pix of us all and then it was back to our cars and a very short drive home.  What a lovely way to spend a sunny afternoon.
