点评:I was disappointed with Sudbury Hall. The building is impressive and sort of dominating. We travelled up from Devon especially to see the beautiful interiors which were used for the BBC 'Pride & Prejudice' series but nearly every room was emptied of furniture and filled with an exhibition of children's clothing through the ages. Every room was so dark it was impossible to see any details of the interiors through the gloom and the clutter of the exhibition.
We eventually found a very small closet room that professed to be the Pride & Prejudice exhibition which consisted of a couple of information boards and cases which was frankly pathetic.
The children's museum of toys was very interesting, and we thought it would have been better to have put the clothing exhibition together with this.
It was very hot, and I thought that putting children's games out on the front lawn where there was no shade whatsoever was not thought through very well.
There was little or no shade in the courtyard where people sat eating and most of the tables had no umbrellas. Most of the the benches in the garden by the lake were in full sun. I realise that Sudbury is now termed 'The children's country house' but surely there should be things if interest for adults who are visiting too. We bought a guide book, just so we could see what the house was supposed to look like
翻译:我对萨德伯里庄园感到失望。这座建筑确实气派非凡、极具气势。我们特意从德文郡赶来,就是为了观赏那些曾用于BBC版《傲慢与偏见》拍摄的精美室内装饰。然而,几乎每个房间里的家具都被搬空,取而代之的是各个历史时期的儿童服装展览。由于光线昏暗,再加上展品杂乱堆放,根本无法看清室内装饰的任何细节。我们最终找到了一个非常小的房间,上面写着那里是《傲慢与偏见》主题展览。里面只有几块信息展示板和几个陈列柜,说实话,实在惨不忍睹。
儿童玩具博物馆则非常有趣;我们认为如果把服装展览也设在那里会更好。
那天天气极其炎热,把儿童游戏设施安排在完全没有树荫的前草坪上,这个安排实在欠考虑。人们坐下来用餐的庭院里几乎没有阴凉处,大多数桌子上也没有遮阳伞。湖畔花园里的长椅也大多暴露在烈日之下。我知道如今萨德伯里被称作“孩子们的乡村别墅”,但对于前来参观的成年人来说,这里也应该有一些能吸引他们的东西才对。我们买了一本导游手册,只为看看这座别墅原本应该是什么样的。
