点评:This National Trust house screams Arts and Crafts and William Morris. In addition, there are extensive gardens, a nice cafe, and a nearby wood filled with bluebells. Plus a shop.
The house has many rooms to visit and friendly and knowledgeable volunteers to answer questions. There are some wonderful wallpapers and carpets/rugs with typical Morris designs. They're generally a tad busy for my taste but some of the wallpaper I could live with. There are also various examples of Arts and Crafts furniture and other pieces. All very well laid out. Cards in each room give lots of information about major pieces in the room.
We did take time to walk through the gardens which were looking good with colourful acers, tulips etc.. We also walked to the nearby Rockinghill Wood which was stuffed full of bluebells. I've never seen so many in one place.
All in all, a very good visit.
Recommended.

房子里有许多房间可以参观,友好而博学的志愿者可以回答问题。这里有一些精美的墙纸和地毯/地垫,带有典型的莫里斯设计。它们通常有点繁琐,不符合我的品味,但有些墙纸我可以接受。这里还有各种工艺美术家具和其他物品的例子。一切都布置得很好。每个房间里的卡片都提供了关于房间里主要物品的大量信息。
我们确实花了一些时间穿过花园,那里有五颜六色的枫树、郁金香等,看起来很漂亮。我们还步行到附近的罗金希尔森林,那里到处都是风信子。我从来没有在一个地方见过这么多。
总的来说,这是一次非常愉快的访问。
推荐。
