Today I went to Manderley... and I hope to go back some day.Today's my birthday. I went to Fowey with Mrs. Host following in the footsteps of Daphne du Maurier. We'd have liked to visit Manderley (actually named Menabilly) but unfortunately, it's private property and people can't get there.
We walked around Fowey, a small town with narrow streets which could have been a fishing village in the past, but nowadays, it seems to me that it's mainly for the tourists.
We were able to see Ferryside, the house where Daphne du Maurier stayed before she moved to Menabilly. This house is on the opposite side to Fowey at the mouth of the river Fowey. It's a big white house with light blue windows and doors. It looks very nice.
