Montacute:

The second part of our field trip was to Montacute estate and it was very fun! I'll admit I didn't like it as much as Stourhead, because the garden was too artificial and maintained. But it was still beautiful! Also, it was exciting to try my first cream tea. For those of you who don't know what cream tea is, I still don't really either. I guess you can go to a shop and ask for cream tea and it's something like this: 2 scones, strawberry jam, clotted cream, and a pot of tea. Now I'm still confused why they call it cream tea if it's really just scones and tea but I think it's because of clotted cream which is a heavy combination of butter, cream cheese, and whipped cream. It's seriously delicious and seriously deadly. Haha I don't know how people here don't have high cholesterol. So here are some beautiful pictures of the estate and surrounding gardens!

This is a great example of how amazing these gardens are.

My first cream tea! So yummy.
