点评:I noticed that some older reviews were extremely negative, so perhaps something has changed because my visit was great. The welcome staff was polite and friendly and the guide was superb. It is not a beautiful house, although the grounds are truly lovely, but the interior is fascinating and contains everything from ancient purloined Greek and Roman statuary to Van Dycks to current photos of their relatives and friends in the royal family. The ancestry there is rich with famous people and scandal and visitors from Florence Nightingale ( who spent her last years nearby) to Charlie Chaplin to Noel Coward have left mementos and photos. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and forthcoming and the tourgroup was small enough that everyone could see and hear. Highly recommended, and you get to be in the New Forest as well!
翻译:我注意到一些较早的评论非常负面,所以也许有些事情已经改变了,因为我的访问很棒。接待人员彬彬有礼、友好,导游也很棒。这不是一栋漂亮的房子,虽然庭院真的很漂亮,但内部却令人着迷,里面有各种各样的东西,从被盗的古希腊和罗马雕像到凡·戴克,再到皇室亲朋好友的近照。那里的祖先有很多名人和丑闻,从弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔(她在附近度过了晚年)到查理·卓别林再到诺埃尔·科沃德,游客们都留下了纪念品和照片。导游知识渊博、乐于助人,旅游团很小,每个人都可以看到和听到。强烈推荐,你还可以去新森林!
