点评:We ended up visiting Portland Castle after discovering that Lulworth Castle was closed, and we’re so glad we did!
Although the castle is quite small, it was definitely worth the visit. It’s full of history, well preserved and offers lovely views across the harbour. The location is beautiful, and the relaxed atmosphere meant we could take our time exploring without feeling rushed.
The castle and grounds were clean and well maintained, and everything was easy to navigate. The staff were friendly and welcoming, but a special mention has to go to the lovely lady in the gift shop. She recommended that we drive up to the Olympic Rings viewpoint after our visit, and we’re so glad we took her advice. The views from the top were absolutely breathtaking and became one of the highlights of our trip.
For the admission price, we felt it offered great value for money, especially if you’re an English Heritage member. There are also good facilities, including a gift shop and information boards that bring the castle’s history to life.
Overall, Portland Castle may be smaller than some other English Heritage sites, but it’s packed with character and well worth a visit. We’d happily recommend it to anyone exploring the Dorset coast.
翻译:在得知卢沃斯城堡暂停开放后,我们决定去参观波特兰城堡,真庆幸我们这么做了!
虽然这座城堡规模不大,但绝对值得一游。它承载着深厚的历史底蕴,保存状况良好,还能欣赏到港口的迷人景色。地理位置也十分优美,氛围闲适惬意,让我们得以从容地慢慢游览,毫无匆忙之感。
城堡及其周边区域整洁干净、维护得当,整个参观过程也十分轻松顺畅。工作人员热情友善,不过特别要提一下礼品店那位可爱的女士。她建议我们在参观结束后开车前往奥林匹克五环观景台,我们很庆幸听从了她的建议。从山顶俯瞰的景色简直美得令人窒息,这也成了我们此行之最难忘的体验之一。
就门票价格而言,我们认为它物有所值,尤其是对于英格兰遗产协会的会员来说更是如此。此外,那里的设施也很不错。这里设有礼品店以及展示城堡历史的信息牌,让游客能更生动地了解其历史。总的来说,波特兰城堡虽然比其他一些英格兰遗产景点规模要小,但却富有特色,绝对值得一游。我们衷心推荐给所有想要游览多塞特海岸的游客。
