点评:I visited this lovely English Heritage site with my Mum and my 6-year-old daughter on Saturday 2nd August, which was the final day of our holiday to the Isle of Wight.
My mother and I have been to Carisbrooke many times over the years, but this was my daughter’s first visit and she, like us, very much enjoyed exploring the site and getting to see one of the donkeys in the wheel house. We also walked the ramparts, which offers lovely views over the surrounding countryside.
As we visited during the school holidays there were activities to take part in, namely the Taskmaster games. We had played at a number of other sites that week and enjoyed doing them at Carisbrooke too.
Like most castle sites, there are bits that are accessible and bits that are not. Wear good footwear if you intend to go up and walk the ramparts, but if you can’t do the climbing, you can still enjoy the gardens, which are on level ground.
Don’t forget to read all about the history of the castle, or get an audio tour. It is a very interesting site and well worth a visit.
There is a café and toilets at the site and the whole castle can be covered in a couple of hours.
It is cheaper to pre-purchase tickets in advance via the English Heritage website, but you can pay on the day -check online for prices. If you’re planning on also visiting other EH sites on the Isle, get membership as then you’ll get free entry and free parking in the carpark.
翻译:8月2日星期六,我和妈妈带着6岁的女儿参观了这座美丽的英国遗产景点。那天也是我们怀特岛之旅的最后一天。
这些年来,我和妈妈去过卡里斯布鲁克城堡很多次,但这是女儿第一次来。她和我们一样,非常喜欢探索这座城堡,还看到了轮房里的一头驴。我们还沿着城墙漫步,欣赏周围乡村的迷人景色。
由于我们是在学校假期期间参观的,所以有很多活动可以参加,比如“任务大师”游戏。那周我们在其他几个景点也玩过这些游戏,在卡里斯布鲁克城堡玩得也很开心。
和大多数城堡一样,卡里斯布鲁克城堡也有一些区域可以参观,有些则不能。如果您打算爬上城墙,一定要穿舒适的鞋子。如果您不能攀爬,也可以在平坦的花园里漫步。
别忘了阅读城堡的历史介绍,或者租用语音导览。这是一个非常有趣的景点,非常值得一游。
景点内设有咖啡馆和洗手间,参观整个城堡只需几个小时。
提前通过英国遗产网站购票更划算,但您也可以当天购票——请在线查询票价。如果您还计划参观岛上其他英国遗产景点,建议您办理会员,这样您就可以免费入场并在停车场免费停车。
