It might be a folly to visit
Castle Hill Estate的点评
点评：I'm afraid I have to agree wholeheartedly with the previous reviewer - Whoever owns Castle Hill estate has given far more thought as to how to corral visitors well away from their precious house & private grounds than welcome & guide them efficiently around the areas which are open. The map provided is actually worse than useless given that it gives no indication of the location of steep hills around the estate, leading to lots of wasted effort trudging up & down paths to try to find the various follies & statues.
Those looking for the sight of traditional flower beds in these gardens are going to be disappointed to find that 5 minutes into your visit, you've actually walked past them all, leaving just a large network of very hilly woodland paths - some grassy, some stony/tarmac - to amble through. Apart from providing a name for each garden feature, no attempt is made to provide any insight into the origin or meaning of any of them. By the time you get back to the cafe cum ticket kiosk, you may be wondering, as you eat your rather minimalist cream tea, why you allowed yourself to be parted with £8.50 for the privilege of seeing one herbaceous border, use some unloved & poorly appointed toilet facilities & be allowed to walk up & down some steep woodland paths that you could find in any open access wood in the countryside.
Judging by the number of large scale musical & drama events advertised here around the year, catering for humble garden visitors clearly features quite low down on the owners' priority list. I would advise potential garden visitors to consider reciprocating those sentiments.

翻译：恐怕我不得不完全同意之前那位评论者的观点——城堡山庄园的主人，与其说是想着如何有效地引导游客参观开放区域，不如说是想着如何让他们远离自己珍贵的宅邸和私人领地。提供的地图实际上毫无用处，因为它没有标明庄园周围陡峭山丘的位置，导致人们不得不在山路上跋涉，费力地寻找各种装饰和雕像。
那些想在这些花园里欣赏传统花坛的人会失望地发现，参观5分钟后，你实际上已经走过了所有花坛，只剩下一片蜿蜒曲折的林间小路——有的长满青草，有的则是石子路/柏油路——供人漫步。除了为每个花园特色提供名称外，没有试图解释它们的起源或含义。当你回到咖啡馆兼售票亭，一边享用着略显简约的奶茶，一边琢磨着自己为什么要花8.5英镑，只为了欣赏一片草本植物花坛、使用一些无人问津、设施简陋的厕所，以及在乡村任何开放的树林里都能找到的陡峭林间小路漫步。
从这里一年四季宣传的大型音乐和戏剧活动数量来看，显然，为普通的花园游客提供服务在业主的优先事项中并不算高。我建议潜在的花园游客考虑回报他们的这份关怀。
