tortoise and the sun

I put my young tortoise outside in the sun the other day when we had good weather but I don't think it liked it as it went straight into the shaded bit (it's house). I thought it would bask in the sunshine, do they not like to be too hot?

Too much heat will cook a tortoise, so no, they don't like to be too hot.
