点评:We booked online and paid £31.81 each (it is dearer at the weekend, but slightly cheaper booked in advance), which gave us access to the house, gardens and petting area, plus free car parking. We spent at least 5 hours …first going round the house where we were a little disappointed with the lack of information…just an information board in most rooms . The theme was very much on the horticultural side of things…so more about flowers than the actual history of the house. I suppose we could have hired a multimedia guide or bought a guide book which might of helped? The gardens were lovely to walk around, although it was disappointing to see the cascade devoid of water.
We found the day to be quite expensive as we had to have several coffee/food stops and coffee was £4.25……so coffee and cake for two was £20…..and then there was lunch!!
We went on a Saturday and the house was very busy…..in fact so busy at times that we were just shuffling through the rooms!
The Toilets by the courtyard were very poor…..only three in the ladies and one of those didn’t have a door lock on!
We did pop into the farm shop on the way out too.
翻译:我们在网上预订,每人31.81英镑(周末更贵,但提前预订稍微便宜一些),这样我们就可以进入房子、花园和宠物区,还可以免费停车。我们花了至少5个小时……首先绕着房子转了一圈,我们对信息的缺乏感到有点失望……大多数房间里只有一块信息板。房子的主题主要是园艺……所以更多的是关于花卉而不是房子的实际历史。我想我们可以雇一个多媒体导游或者买一本旅游指南,这可能会有帮助。花园里散步很愉快,虽然看到没有水的瀑布令人失望。
我们发现这一天相当昂贵,因为我们不得不停下来喝几杯咖啡/吃点东西,咖啡要4.25英镑……所以两人份的咖啡和蛋糕要20英镑……然后还有午餐!!
我们是周六去的,房子里非常热闹……事实上,有时人太多了,我们只能在房间里走来走去!
院子旁边的厕所很简陋……女厕所只有三个,其中一个甚至没有门锁!
我们出去的时候还顺便去了趟农场商店。
