At the heart of this riverside estate sits the granite and slatestone house of Cotehele, built mainly between 1485 and 1627 and a home of the Edgcumbe family for centuries. Intimate chambers feature large Tudor fireplaces and rich hangings. Outside, the formal gardens overlook the richly planted valley garden below, with medieval dovecote, stewpond and Victorian summer house. At the quay interesting old buildings house the Edgcumbe Arms tea-room and an outstation of the National Maritime Museum. The restored sailing barge Shamrock is moored alongside.
