点评:We received a warm welcome at the Ticket Office and Gift Shop when we arrived at Pencarrow, just in time to join the 1145am guided tour of the House. The House is a modest but handsome Georgian house built in the mid-1700s and set in beautiful mature parkland with lots of interesting and unusual plants, and a huge amount of beautiful gigantic rhododendrons with myriad beautiful colours.
Our tour of the House was conducted by a jolly lady named Sue 1, who was wonderfully wise, knowledgeable, funny and entertaining all in one. We were treated to one of the best guided tours of a stately home that I think I’ve ever had. We learnt all about the family who had owned the land and house, the Molesworth-St Aubyns, and lots about their idiosyncrasies aswell as all the wonderful personal treasures they had acquired over the ages. Sue weaved a story from room to room that was delivered with a friendly but professional manner.
Followed by coffee and cake in the Tea Room. And then the walk through the gardens…beautiful…
Pencarrow is a fabulous gem in the Cornish countryside and very well worth a visit.
Thank you!!
翻译:我们抵达彭卡罗庄园时,售票处和礼品店受到了热情接待,正好赶上上午11点45分的庄园导览游。这座庄园是一座建于18世纪中期的乔治亚风格建筑,风格朴素却不失雅致,坐落在美丽的成熟园林之中,园内种植着许多奇花异草,还有数量庞大、色彩斑斓的杜鹃花。
我们的导览员是一位名叫苏(Sue)的女士,她风趣幽默、博学多识,令人愉悦。这绝对是我体验过的最棒的庄园导览之一。我们了解了这片土地和庄园的主人——莫尔斯沃思-圣奥宾家族的故事,以及他们的许多奇特之处和多年来积累的珍贵私人收藏。苏以友好而专业的态度,将一个个房间的故事娓娓道来。
之后在茶室享用咖啡和蛋糕。然后漫步花园……美极了……
彭卡罗庄园是康沃尔乡村一颗璀璨的明珠,非常值得一游。
谢谢!
