点评:Reasonable entry price (£5), payable at cafe. A hillside garden is reserved for purely spring-flowering evergreen shrubs, the main gardens are herbaceous borders with wide variety of interesting plants. Some very unusual flowers among the borders especially a white & pink patterned crocosmia (?) we've never come across before. Still working on its ID ! After surveying the borders we tried the refreshments - the cafe food was problematic - a lady hiker from nearby Pitt Farm campsite suggested we avoid the rolls priced at £9.50 - they indeed turned out to be rather small & not well filled, so we opted for a slice of fruit cake (good but £3.75), lemon drizzle cake (not very lemony) and a pot of tea for 2 which was tasty & reasonable. It would therefore be well worth bringing a packed lunch with you on a visit to this out-of-the-way area. There didn't seem to be enough water available to make the old mill wheel operational, although the mill pond was full.
The beach waterfall at Spekes Mill Mouth is a 1 mile walk from the crossroads outside the gardens, up & down along a stony uneven narrow track - well worth the time & effort for the views along the Hartland coastline.
翻译:入场费合理(5 英镑),可在咖啡馆支付。山坡上的花园专门种植春季开花的常绿灌木,主花园是草本植物边界,种植着各种有趣的植物。边界上有一些非常不寻常的花,尤其是一种白色和粉红色图案的香鸢尾(?),我们以前从未见过。仍在努力识别它!勘察完边界后,我们尝试了茶点 - 咖啡馆的食物有问题 - 附近皮特农场露营地的一位女徒步旅行者建议我们不要吃售价 9.50 英镑的面包卷 - 它们确实很小而且馅料不多,所以我们选择了一片水果蛋糕(不错,但要 3.75 英镑)、柠檬淋面蛋糕(柠檬味不浓)和一壶 2 人份的茶,味道好又实惠。因此,在参观这个偏僻地区时,带上一份盒装午餐是值得的。虽然磨坊池塘满了,但似乎没有足够的水来让旧磨坊轮子运转。
斯佩克斯磨坊口 (Spekes Mill Mouth) 的海滩瀑布距离花园外的十字路口有 1 英里,沿着一条布满石头、凹凸不平的狭窄小路上下走即可到达 - 为了欣赏哈特兰 (Hartland) 海岸线的美景,花费时间和精力非常值得。
