点评:To have the opportunity to visit King Charles's private residence and gardens was too good to pass up.
We went as a coach party and photo id is required upon entry. Photos were allowed to be taken in the waiting area and shop area but not the gardens.
This didn't bother us as the guide takes you on the garden tour which lasts 90 minutes and explains every aspect of the garden and the ideas behind the planting and King Charles's input to each area.
At one point you are standing right outside the front of the house looking down toward Tetbury.
After we had a meal and everything was planned like clockwork. Staff were all very pleasant and the food delicious.
We then visited the shop and of course some things are pretty pricey but I bought some Highgrove Gin for £40 which was reasonable esp as the botanicals came from the meadow gardens.
We visited in August and the gardens were in full flower but if we go again we'd go in the spring to see the wild flower meadows.
Open from April to October apparently and it gets booked up fast.
What we really loved was that it wasn't overflowing with visitors and the tours were staggered so you always had time to enjoy the gardens in a small group.
翻译:有机会参观查理国王的私人住所和花园真是太好了,不容错过。
我们以旅游团的身份前往,入场时需要出示带照片的身份证件。等候区和商店区允许拍照,但花园不允许。
这并没有打扰我们,因为导游会带您参观花园,持续 90 分钟,并解释花园的各个方面以及种植背后的想法和查理国王对每个区域的投入。
有一次,您正站在房子前面俯瞰泰特伯里。
我们吃完饭后,一切都计划得井井有条。工作人员都很友好,食物也很美味。
然后我们去了商店,当然有些东西相当昂贵,但我花了 40 英镑买了一些 Highgrove Gin,价格合理,尤其是因为植物来自草地花园。
我们八月份参观过,花园里鲜花盛开,但如果我们再去,我们会在春天去看看野花草地。
开放时间为 4 月至 10 月,很快就被预订一空。
我们真正喜欢的是,这里并没有挤满游客,而且游览时间错开,所以你总有时间以小团体的形式欣赏花园。
