Astley Hall的点评

点评：We hadn't visited Astley Hall since 1984 (!) and heard that recent renovations were complete, so we thought we'd pay a visit and had a fantastic few hours. The hall wasn't open when we arrived but that was expected and we had already decided to do the Astley Park Trail first, which was lovely. Lots of historical waypoints which were all worthy to stop and look at. We then went for coffee and a cake at the "Ambio" cafe, which was very clean and a great choice of delicious cakes and more food available. Then we made our way to the hall itself, gaining entry after knocking on the front door and being greeted with "not today, thank you"!. The entrance hall is well worth spending some time in, with some very interesting portraits painted onto the wood paneling. It just got better the more we progressed through the house, which was seemingly never ending, culminating in a great, long gallery! There is so much to see, an the addition of information cards to explain the portraits are ingenious and a godsend. The enclosed courtyard was also fascinating. Great, funny and helpful staff too, always there to answer an questions you might have. Didn't catch any names except Luke, who was a mine of information and anecdotes. This was the best day out we have had at a historic house in many years, and a tribute to everyone who was put so much effort into the restoration and maintaining it in the 21st century. The house seems as good as new. the walled garden and WW1 tributes especially are excellent too. Very highly recommended. A true gem of a hall, and an asset to the Red Rose county.

翻译：自1984年以来我们就再没去过阿斯特利庄园了（！），后来听说那里的翻修工程已经完成，于是我们决定去看看，结果度过了非常愉快的几个小时。我们到达时庄园尚未开放，不过这在意料之中；我们事先也决定先沿着阿斯特利公园步道游览，这条步道真是不错。沿途有许多具有历史意义的景点，都值得驻足观赏。之后我们在“Ambio”咖啡馆里喝了咖啡、吃了蛋糕。那里非常干净，还有各种美味的蛋糕及其他食物可供选择。随后我们前往大厅，敲了前门后有人回应道：“今天不行，谢谢！”不过门厅本身就值得花些时间细细欣赏，木制墙板上绘有一些非常有趣的肖像画。随着我们继续在房子里四处游览，体验也愈发精彩，整个参观过程仿佛永无尽头，最后我们抵达了一条长长的画廊！有太多值得观赏的内容了，而添加信息卡来解释那些肖像画的设计更是巧妙至极，真是雪中送炭。那个封闭的庭院也相当有趣。工作人员既出色又风趣，还乐于助人，随时准备解答我们的疑问。除了卢克之外，我没记住其他人的名字；他简直就是个信息与趣闻的宝库。这无疑是多年来我们在历史建筑景点中度过的最愉快的一天。向所有在21世纪为这座宅邸的修复与维护付出辛勤努力的人们致以敬意。如今，这座宅邸看起来宛如新的一般。尤其是带围墙的花园以及纪念第一次世界大战的设施，都相当出色。强烈推荐！这真是一座不可多得的瑰宝般的宅邸，也是红玫瑰郡的珍贵财富。
