Chastleton House

It has been a wonderful day today.  The sun has shone all day and it was really beautifully warm.  I went out to lunch with a couple of friends and had lunch at the Straw Kitchen before visiting Chastleton house.. what a gem that is!!  It had many similarites to Haddon Hall which l visited earlier in the year ... l cannot think why l haven't visited before now.. thoroughly enjoyed it. 
Then this evening my youngest arrived home for the night en route for Scotland tomorrow.. just lovely to see her briefly as she is off at crack of dawn tomorrow morning
