点评:Having decided to visit the Museum on a trip up to Moffat I was not sure from the internet if it was still open. Therefore, having visited I thought I had best give a review to help others know it is still going.
Is in the downstairs of Houghton Hall Garden Centre, Houghton on the outskirts of Carlise, not far from Junction 44 of the M6. There was some debate about the feasibility of parking with a caravan but there is part of the car park which makes this very easy. (In this case Houghton is pronounced HOW-ten)
I had visited this Museum before when I think we had to pay, but I wanted to look at the Miniatures for inspiration as I was beginning to thinking about dismantling my doll’s house in order to make some smaller room boxes.
This time it was free and had there been more time the Garden Centre had a lot to commend it.
For my purposes, interest and zero cost warranted a five start review but the models on display really are excellent and there is a lot of craft and model stuff on sale in the shop through which you go to reach the Museum.
翻译:在去莫法特的路上,我决定参观这家博物馆,但在网上查不到它是否还开放。所以,参观过之后,我觉得最好写点评论,让大家知道它还在开放。
它位于霍顿庄园花园中心楼下,霍顿位于卡莱塞郊区,离M6高速公路44号交叉口不远。之前有人讨论过能否停放房车,但那里有一部分停车场,停车非常方便。(霍顿的发音是HOW-ten。)
我以前参观过这家博物馆,当时好像需要付费,但我想看看那些微缩模型,从中寻找灵感,因为我当时正考虑拆开我的娃娃屋,做成一些更小的房间盒子。
这次是免费的,如果时间充裕的话,花园中心有很多值得推荐的地方。
就我的目的而言,趣味性和零成本值得五星评价,但展出的模型确实很棒,而且在您前往博物馆的路上要经过的商店里有很多工艺品和模型出售。
