Outside, there were trips to see otters in the bay. We tried
to see them from the ramparts but the boats were heading too far out so we went
outside for a closer look. The surrounding land seemed to be filled with
rotting moss and overgrown grass. At the end of the inlet were some holiday
cottages and a small shop selling ice creams. But hidden inland beneath the
landscaped hills was a waterfall. Somehow, our group separated to explore different
parts of the garden. I climbed a hill through some woods hoping to get a view
of the castle, and looked down onto a lawn complete with divided flower beds in
between the gravel path. There were also cosy tunnels cut through the hedgerows
to form beautiful archways. In the centre was a square pond complete with lily
pads and a small fountain. This also formed the castle’s own herb and vegetable
garden.
