点评:For a while now Harlaxton Manor has been on our "to-do" list. When we arrived the outside door indeed look impressive and large. Before starting the tour we decided to have some lunch. After a long time queuing the food options were a bit limited but reasonable in price. Be aware though that a simple mug of tea costs £3 (and even then I had to ask for a top up as it was only half-filled).
After looking round the garden, we entered to look around, and within 10 minutes had finished. Yep, turns out there were only 10 rooms you could look at, of which the cafe, the room where you sat to eat, and 3 others were all ones you could just walk into without paying. So in essence you pay £15 to see a handful of rooms.
Disappointed we decided to search out the walled garden, only to be told that you have to pay extra to look at it as it was part of a tour, and they were all sold out anyway.
So to summarise, is Harlaxton Manor worth visiting, and is it good value for money? For us the answer to both is a resounding No. There are many more places in the County that offer a better, longer, experience and they include all the gardens in the ticket price too.
翻译:一段时间以来,Harlaxton Manor 一直列在我们的“待办事项”清单上。我们到达时,外门确实看起来气势磅礴、气势磅礴。在开始游览之前,我们决定吃点午餐。排了很长时间的队后,食物选择有限,但价格合理。不过请注意,一杯简单的茶要 3 英镑(即便如此,我也不得不要求加满,因为茶只装了一半)。
在参观完花园后,我们进去四处看看,不到 10 分钟就参观完了。是的,原来只有 10 个房间可以参观,其中咖啡馆、您坐着吃饭的房间和其他 3 个房间都可以直接进入而无需付费。所以实际上你花 15 英镑就可以参观几个房间。
我们很失望,决定去寻找围墙花园,结果被告知你必须额外付费才能参观,因为这是旅游的一部分,而且它们都卖光了。
总而言之,哈拉克斯顿庄园值得参观吗?它物有所值吗?对我们来说,这两个问题的答案都是肯定的。县内还有许多其他地方可以提供更好、更长时间的体验,而且门票价格也包括所有花园。
