点评:23rd May 2024. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Bonython Garden Estate today.
We had no trouble finding it, and parking was easy, with tree cover providing shade for a good number of cars if needed.
Dogs are welcome. The gardener responsible for taking admission fees was friendly, knowledgeable, approachable, and a pleasure to meet. (A credit to his employers). Although he couldn't quite accept Extra Strong Mints as legal tender, he gladly accepted one as a light-hearted gratuity, made a fuss of our Weimaraner (which she always enjoys), and helped us identify the Thalictrum (Meadow rue) that shimmered entertainingly in the breeze. See!, I'm not even the horticulturist compared to my partner, but still found it sufficiently engaging to have remembered.
The features and layout of the garden itself make it a very relaxing and attractive venue.
You could wiz round it in half an hour, but we found several of the vistas tranquil enough to feel tempted simply to sit for a while, and soak in the stimulating arrangement of water features and exotic plants.
We did read one very isolated review that suggested that access can be problem for those with limited mobility. I have to say we really couldn't agree with this assessment. All of the areas seemed sufficiently smooth, firm, not too steep and wide enough to accommodate wheel chairs, push chairs, walking aids, and mobility scooters, and there weren't any steps or stairs at all that I remember.
翻译:2024 年 5 月 23 日。我们今天非常享受对 Bonython Garden Estate 的参观。
我们毫不费力地找到了它,停车也很容易,如果需要的话,树木可以为很多汽车提供遮荫。
欢迎带狗。负责收取入场费的园丁很友好、知识渊博、平易近人,很高兴见到他。(感谢他的雇主)。虽然他不能完全接受特强薄荷糖作为法定货币,但他很乐意接受一粒薄荷糖作为轻松的小费,对我们的魏玛猎犬大惊小怪(她一直很喜欢),并帮助我们识别了在微风中闪闪发光的 Thalictrum(草地芸香)。看!与我的伴侣相比,我甚至不是园艺家,但仍然觉得它足够吸引人,值得记住。
花园本身的特色和布局使它成为一个非常放松和有吸引力的场所。
您可以在半小时内快速绕行,但我们发现几个景观非常宁静,让人忍不住想坐一会儿,沉浸在令人振奋的水景和奇异植物中。
我们确实读过一篇非常孤立的评论,其中指出,对于行动不便的人来说,进入可能是一个问题。我不得不说,我们真的不能同意这个评估。所有区域看起来都足够平坦、坚固、不太陡峭,而且足够宽,可以容纳轮椅、婴儿车、助行器和电动代步车,而且我记得根本没有任何台阶或楼梯。
