Wedding anniversary day out!
Browsholme Hall, Gardens & Cart Shed Café的点评
点评:Traveled from just outside Balckpool to visit. Upon arrival made our way to the cafe and booked for the tour which was a very reasonable £12.50, then made it our duty to sample a delicious piece of carrot cake and a cup of tea.
Sitting outside the main house opsite the lawn on a bench for a while alllowed us nice views of the well kept main lawn and the extended gardens to the distance.
The tour itself took a little over an hour, given by a knowledgeable friendly lady. Given that this is an old house, it's still very much a family home, evidence of which is dotted about here and there.
Unlike most statley homes of this nature you are allowed to sit on much of the furniture whilst the guide gives their talk, which somehow makes the rooms more welcoming.
What we saw of the gardens were well tended and seeing the family hard at work up ladders prunning and being charmed by the current owner was the icing on the visit.
It's not a huge place as others are and all the more intitmate for that reason. As such I would recomend a visit without any hessitation
Thanks for letting us visit your wonderful home, John & Laurie.
翻译:我们从布莱克浦郊外赶来参观。抵达后,我们直奔咖啡馆,并预订了导览服务,费用仅为12.50英镑,实在物超所值。随后我们便迫不及待地品尝了一块美味的胡萝卜蛋糕,还喝了一杯香浓的茶。
我们还在草坪对面的主楼前的长椅上坐了一会儿,这样就能尽情欣赏到养护得井然有序的草坪以及远处广阔的花园景观。
导览过程持续了一个多小时,由一位知识渊博又亲切友善的女士为我们讲解。鉴于这是一座老房子,它至今仍是一座典型的家庭住宅,这一点从各处可见的痕迹便能看出。
与大多数此类豪宅不同,在这里参观时允许游客坐在大部分家具上,而导游则在一旁进行讲解;这使得整个空间显得更加亲切宜人。
我们看到的花园打理得井然有序;看到这家人爬上梯子修剪枝叶,再加上现任主人的热情好客,更是为这次参观锦上添花。这里并不像其他地方那样宽敞宏大,也正因如此才显得更加温馨宜人。所以我毫不犹豫地推荐大家来此一游。
感谢约翰和劳里让我们参观你们美好的家。
