点评:Great location in the lovely village of Melbourne, despite shopping here for over 20years, i had never been into the hall of gardens, after reading the newsletter a friend and i decided to visit.
It was a very sunny afternoon, so a walk around the garden came first as the hall is not open until 2pm.
The gardens are very extensive, masses of neatly kept lawned areas, 3 impressive pools with fountains all in line with the front of the house. Unfortuantely despite many interesting shrubs, and lovely stream not much colour anywhere. When buying the tickets at £10 per person, it would be a nice gesture to have a map of the gardens (i see today there is one of the website) many people wandering around on this lovely sunny day. Unfortunately the lady selling the garden tickets did not tell us when the hall was open, so we had to hang around for 2pm. The walk by Melbourne pool is lovely with many bench seats to sit and watch the world go by, masses of ducks everywhere enjoying the water
We managed to buy 2 tickets at £6 per person to join the guided tour of the hall, actually just a few rooms downstiars. inside the hall there is very little to see,some of the rooms are very small, but the huge paintings were of interest, the furniture really quite randam, but the amount of family photo;s crammed on any service was rather strange and excessive
The main problem is the parking: there are spaces beside the church and rear of the hall, but all are full, if new to the area you have to keep driving around to find a spot
翻译:位于墨尔本美丽村庄的绝佳位置,尽管在这里购物已有 20 多年了,但我从未去过花园大厅,在读完时事通讯后,我和一个朋友决定参观一下。
那是一个阳光明媚的下午,所以首先在花园里散步,因为大厅要到下午 2 点才开放。
花园非常广阔,有大量整齐的草坪,3 个令人印象深刻的带喷泉的游泳池,全部与房子的前面对齐。不幸的是,尽管有许多有趣的灌木和可爱的溪流,但任何地方都没有太多的色彩。当以每人 10 英镑的价格购买门票时,最好有一张花园地图(我今天看到有一个网站),很多人在这个阳光明媚的日子里四处闲逛。不幸的是,卖花园门票的女士没有告诉我们大厅什么时候开放,所以我们不得不在下午两点闲逛。墨尔本泳池边的步行道很漂亮,有很多长椅可以坐下来观看世界的流逝,到处都有大量的鸭子在享受水
我们设法以每人 6 英镑的价格买了 2 张门票,参加大厅的导游,实际上只有楼下的几个房间。大厅里面没什么可看的,有些房间很小,但是巨幅画作很有趣,家具确实很随意,但是任何服务上塞满的全家福照片都相当奇怪和过多
主要问题是停车:教堂旁边和大厅后面都有停车位,但都已经满了,如果刚来这个地区,你必须继续开车才能找到停车位
