点评:What a hidden gem! We had a wonderful visit to this beautiful 1690s house and gardens.
The volunteers were all so welcoming and passionate. We asked about a plant and ended up having a lovely chat with one of the volunteers, who happily shared some brilliant gardening tips.
After enjoying some delicious cobs and a cup of tea in the cosy little café, we explored the gardens, where the informative labels explaining the history of the plants and their traditional uses made everything even more interesting.
But the absolute cherry on top was our guided tour of the house with Helen. Huge shout-out to Helen! She brought the history to life with fascinating facts, entertaining stories, and plenty of humour. She made the whole experience unforgettable.
A fantastic day out from start to finish. Highly recommended – we'll definitely be back!
翻译:真是个隐藏的瑰宝啊!我们非常愉快地参观了这座建于17世纪90年代的美丽宅邸及其花园。
所有的志愿者都热情友好且充满热情。我们询问了某种植物的情况,结果与一位志愿者聊得很投机,他还欣然分享了许多实用的园艺小技巧。
在舒适的小咖啡馆里品尝了美味的玉米棒和一杯茶之后,我们便开始漫步游览花园。那些介绍植物历史及其传统用途的说明标签让整个参观过程更加有趣。
而最精彩的部分莫过于在海伦的带领下进行的房屋导览。必须大力称赞海伦!她用各种有趣的史实、生动的故事以及满满的幽默感,把历史生动地呈现在我们面前。整个体验因此变得令人难忘。
从始至终都是极棒的一天。强烈推荐——我们肯定会再来的!
