点评:Fantastic. Utterly fantastic. So much to do, it's quite an experience.
Going around the main castle tourist attraction is wonderful. You get a audio tour to take around and it's informative and doesn't overstay it's welcome. Taking you through various ball rooms, kitchens and bedrooms, each place is unique and interesting with so much history and many stories. It takes about an hour and a half to get through and then you end the tour next to a timeline which explains the history of Cawdor and the relationship of the castle with the Scottish Play!
The gift shop is nice and I'll openly admit to buying a very well designed and smart flat cap there. So obviously it's a good gift shop!
We walked around the walled gardens and the flower gardens but it was too muddy to try the wild gardens on the day we went. We also tried the coffee shop but most of the cakes were gone. However, that they had sold out shows they must be popular!
We did try the second gift shop near the cafe but it had nothing in that the other one didn't have so made no further purchases.
However, nothing is perfect and the maze seems permanently closed which was quite sad. However, everything else was fantastic. I haven't really sold how well upkept the flower garden was but it was marvellous to see, even on a rainy day like we had.
Highly recommended.

参观城堡的主要景点真是有趣至极。有语音导览服务,内容详实且恰到好处、不会让人觉得冗长。导览会带您游览各个舞厅、厨房和卧室,每个地方都独具特色且充满趣味,蕴含着丰富的历史与无数故事。整个参观过程大约需要一个半小时,最后你会来到一条时间线旁结束游览。这条时间线详细介绍了卡沃德的历史,以及这座城堡与那部苏格兰戏剧之间的关联!
纪念品商店很不错,我坦率地承认自己在那里买了一顶设计精良且很时尚的平顶帽。显然,这是一家很棒的纪念品商店!
我们逛了有围墙围起来的花园和花坛,不过我们去的那天泥泞不堪,所以没能去探索野花园。我们也去尝试了那家咖啡馆,不过大部分蛋糕都卖光了。不过,能卖光说明这些蛋糕肯定很受欢迎!
我们还去了咖啡馆附近的另一家礼品店,但里面的商品与第一家店并无不同,所以我们没有再购买任何东西。
不过,没有什么是完美的——那个迷宫似乎一直都处于关闭状态,这真是令人遗憾。不过其他方面都棒极了。我还没来得及好好描述一下花园的维护状况,但那里的花景真是令人惊叹。即使在像今天这样下雨的日子里也如此。
强烈推荐。
