'We came back again to Cornwall in the spring, and I was seized with a fever for fishing. I would be out in a boat most days, with a line in the water, and it did not matter much what came on the end of it... The boatman sculled off the little bay called Pridmouth, and as I looked at the land beyond, and saw the massive trees climbing from the valley to the hill, the shape of it all seemed familiar. 
 
'What's up there, in the trees?' I said.
 
'That's Menabilly', came the answer, 'but you can't see the house from the shore'...
 
the lure of Menabilly was upon me once again...
 
Next morning... I rose at 5am [and] pulled across the harbour in my pram.'
 
Daphne du Maurier, House of Secrets
