点评:There are many gardens we have visited and enjoyed time and time again but this place has something so simple and yet so obvious that others should copy.
SEATS! These are lovely gardens that are so tranquil and inviting on a warm sunny day and what makes them even better is lots of seats spread around so that you can sit and take it all in.
My wife struggles with mobility but not to the point of needing a wheelchair/ mobility scooter so having the extra seating spread around what is in places, quite a steep garden was a great relief which meant she could enjoy the two visits we made in the week ( it was because of the seats we made the second visit). We met some very cheerful and helpful staff. We didn't go into the house but another visitor made a point of telling us how good the gentleman was doing the tour of the house.
There is a woodland walk but this wasn't suitable for my wife but it does look like it would be very good. What used to be the formal garden would make a great area for young families to picnic ( with a little bit of work). The cafe and gift shop are very good and again, lovely helpful staff.
If we ever venture back to the area, this is top of the list for a visit.
翻译:我们曾经多次参观和欣赏过许多花园,但这个地方的特色却如此简单却又如此明显,值得其他人效仿。
座位!这些美丽的花园在温暖的阳光下显得如此宁静宜人,更棒的是花园周围分布着许多座位,您可以坐下来欣赏美景。
我妻子行动不便,但还不至于需要轮椅/代步车,所以在一些坡度较大的花园周围设置额外的座位让她感到轻松不少,这意味着她可以享受我们一周内的两次参观(正是因为有座位,我们第二次才得以参观)。我们遇到了一些非常热情和乐于助人的工作人员。我们没有进屋,但另一位游客特意告诉我们,那位先生带我们参观房子非常出色。
花园里有一条林间小道,但不太适合我妻子,不过看起来以后会很不错。以前的正式花园可以改造成年轻家庭野餐的好地方(只需稍加修缮)。咖啡馆和礼品店都很棒,工作人员也很热情友好。
如果我们以后再来这个地区,这里绝对是我们的首选。
