点评:Visited for the advertised snowdrop walk. Signage could be improved a little on the roadside as we accidentally started to turn up the exit. It was a popular day for visitors - with a bit of a queue to get in along the drive sitting in the car - luckily this went down quite quickly. We were given a map which as first time visitors we appreciated. There was an art exhibition running on the day of our visit so it was nice to additionally browse that. We made our way firstly to the courtyard for food where there was quite a long wait outside queueing (in the rain at a point). I think it would be better to maybe have a seperate entry and exit for the cafe as customers and staff seemed to have to negotiate the queue blocking the single doorway while holding trays. The food/drinks arrived quickly and were really enjoyed - the coriander and carrot soup was especially delicious! Wish signage though would have been a little better - we sat outside in the courtyard with our dog, which was nice but rather busy and crowded with the shop and toilets nearby, but after eating we discovered a beautiful little eating area to the side that would have been magical to sit and a lot quieter. We enjoyed the walk around the gardens, stroll to the lake and the unique sculptures along the way. Lots of nice places to sit on route to take in the surroundings. It was sad to see some children and adults not respecting the environment and walking all over the little water feature for a photo opportunity. We were a little disappointed with the number of snowdrops and the gardens / walk wasn't as vast as we were perhaps hoping (our expectations). Overall, we did have a lovely few hours visit, reasonable value and would definitely visit again, but probably more biennially or if there was an extra event on.
翻译:去参观广告中的雪花莲步道。我们无意中拐进了出口,所以路边的标牌可以改进一下。那天游客很多——坐在车里沿着车道排了一段队才能进去——幸运的是,这种情况很快就消失了。我们得到了一张地图,作为初次来访的游客,我们很感激。我们去的那天正好有艺术展,所以额外浏览一下也很不错。我们首先到庭院吃饭,外面排了很长的队(一度还在下雨)。我认为咖啡馆最好有单独的入口和出口,因为顾客和工作人员似乎不得不拿着托盘穿过堵住唯一门口的队伍。食物/饮料很快就送来了,我们真的很享受——香菜胡萝卜汤特别美味!希望标识能更好一些——我们和我们的狗坐在外面的庭院里,那里很不错,但是附近有商店和厕所,所以很热闹也很拥挤,但吃完饭后,我们发现旁边有一个漂亮的小用餐区,坐下来会很神奇,而且安静得多。我们喜欢在花园里散步,漫步到湖边,欣赏沿途独特的雕塑。沿途有很多不错的地方可以坐下来欣赏周围的环境。很遗憾看到一些孩子和大人不尊重环境,为了拍照而走遍小水景。我们对雪花莲的数量有点失望,花园/步道也没有我们希望的那么大(我们的期望)。总的来说,我们度过了愉快的几个小时,物有所值,肯定会再来,但可能每两年来一次,或者如果有额外的活动的话。
