点评:We took my 90-year-old, wheelchair-using mother here on a Sunday morning. She had a brilliant time. The Tea Room was completely full but The Tea Room Too had plenty of room. A member of staff saw us approaching with a wheelchair and ran to hold the door open for us. There was plenty of room between the tables and no steps to get the chair over. There was an impressive array of cakes of all sorts plus sandwiches and paninis. Everything we ordered was delicious and the staff could not have been more hospitable.
After our cafe visit, we went into The Plant Barn. Again, there were no steps and plenty of room for the wheelchair. The staff were friendly and helpful, pointing out the lift and an alternative exit as well as advising me on my purchases. The plants on sale all looked lush and healthy. I'm not much of a gardener, so I don't have an informed view on prices - they seemed ok to me.
There is a lot more to see in the shopping village and I'm sure we will be back. It was an ideal location for a trip out for my Mum but I'd go back for a browse around by myself.
翻译:周日早上,我们带我90岁高龄、坐轮椅的母亲来这里。她玩得非常开心。茶室座无虚席,但二号茶室空间宽敞。一位工作人员看到我们推着轮椅过来,立刻跑过来帮我们开门。桌子之间空间很大,而且没有台阶,轮椅很容易就能过去。那里有琳琅满目的蛋糕,还有三明治和帕尼尼。我们点的所有东西都很美味,工作人员也热情好客。
在咖啡馆之后,我们去了植物谷仓。那里同样没有台阶,轮椅也能轻松通过。工作人员友好热情,不仅指给我们电梯和另一个出口,还为我挑选植物提供了建议。出售的植物看起来都枝繁叶茂,非常健康。我对园艺不太了解,所以对价格不太清楚——不过我觉得价格还算合理。
购物村里还有很多其他值得一看的地方,我相信我们还会再来的。对于我妈妈来说,这里是外出游玩的理想地点,但我自己也会再去逛逛。
