Long--awaited first vist to Scott's Grotto 28/09/2024
Scotts Grotto的点评
点评：Have known about Scott’s Grotto for many years but limited public opening hours has precluded a visit until now when a free Satuday arose for us to visit Ware. This was the last chance to visit in the 2024 summer opening season.
Was not sure what to expect but the restored grotto with summer house above is very impressive and unusual. It is all that remains of Amwell House which was originally the home of Quaker poet, landscape gardener and writer John Scott and his parents. The rest of the site of the former Amwell House now consists of housing development but the grotto was saved from destruction and restored in 1991. It is largely unlit and visitors should bring a powerful torch as those available from the friendly volunteers on site are somewhat underwhelming!
Accesses within the site are quite precipitous with rough-hewn flint steps without handrails, retaine unaltered because of the “Listed” status of the Grotto. Not suitable for anyone with severe balance problems and best visited in dry weather.
Beautifully decorated and formed, with amazing hand-dug inter-connecting tunnels . Don't miss the beautiful Summer House above, with even more steps to negotiate carefully!
Very modest admission charges levied to visit a really unusual attraction and potential income opportunities from souvenirs etc have yet to be exploited.

翻译：多年来，我一直都知道斯科特石窟，但由于开放时间有限，我们无法参观，直到现在，一个空闲的星期六，我们才有机会参观韦尔。这是 2024 年夏季开放季节的最后一次参观机会。
不确定会发生什么，但修复后的石窟和上面的避暑别墅非常令人印象深刻且与众不同。这是 Amwell House 的全部遗迹，Amwell House 最初是贵格会诗人、园林设计师和作家 John Scott 及其父母的家。前 Amwell House 遗址的其余部分现在都是住宅开发，但石窟在 1991 年免于毁坏并进行了修复。它基本上没有灯光，游客应该带上强大的手电筒，因为现场友好的志愿者提供的手电筒有点令人失望！
遗址内的通道相当陡峭，粗糙的燧石台阶没有扶手，由于石窟的“列入名录”状态，这些台阶保持不变。不适合有严重平衡问题的人，最好在干燥的天气里参观。
装饰精美，造型优美，有令人惊叹的手工挖掘的连接隧道。不要错过上面美丽的避暑别墅，还有更多需要小心处理的台阶！
参观一个真正不寻常的景点需要收取非常低的入场费，纪念品等潜在的收入机会尚未被利用。
