点评:I'll start with the positives... The car park is large and well laid out with footpaths, very safe and plenty of room for everyone even on a bank holiday. All the staff we met were friendly and helpful, the lady on the till at the entrance was very welcoming and smiling, it was a good first impression. However...
This is where it goes downhill. We started to walk round and at first I was impressed by the large vegetable/ walled garden area. Unfortunately, that's about as good as it gets. Fruits and vegetables are not the most inspiring and the rest of the planting in the walled garden, although impressive in its way, was very repetitive with lots of drift planting rather than prairie style. It reminded me a bit of Trentham gardens which is more of a visitor attraction than a 'garden'.
In addition, the lake area looks shabby and uncared for and the only cafe serving food on a bank holiday Monday (the main one) was a packed, noisy, and chaotic mess. Although the staff were friendly and the food was nice.
In summary, unless you live very close by and are a member, I would save your money and go elsewhere. If you're looking for a garden, I would recommend Ness botanic gardens on the Wirral. If you're looking for more of a park/ family day out I would recommend Lyme Park in Disley.
翻译:先说说优点……停车场很大,布局合理,有步行道,非常安全,即使是银行假日也足够宽敞。我们遇到的所有工作人员都很友好热情,入口收银台的女士更是笑容满面,给人留下了很好的第一印象。然而……
接下来就有点令人失望了。我们开始四处走走,一开始我被那片大型的蔬菜/围墙花园所吸引。可惜的是,也就仅此而已了。水果和蔬菜并不出彩,围墙花园里的其他植物虽然也各有特色,但非常单调,而且大多是零星种植,缺乏草原风格。这让我想起了特伦瑟姆花园,与其说是“花园”,不如说更像是一个旅游景点。
此外,湖区看起来破败不堪,无人照管。在银行假日周一(也是主要的假日),唯一一家提供餐饮的咖啡馆人满为患,嘈杂混乱。虽然员工很友好,食物也不错。
总而言之,除非你住得很近而且是会员,否则我建议你省下这笔钱去别的地方。如果你想去花园,我推荐威勒尔半岛的尼斯植物园。如果你想找个更适合全家出游的公园,我推荐迪斯利的莱姆公园。
