点评:We had a most wonderful time visiting David Austin Roses. We visited on Saturday 12th September and arrived after a long drive about 11ish. I specifically wanted some advice in identifying a rose I have in my garden. A man who works in the plants area had unbelievable knowledge of all the roses and told me immediately what my rose was. He was such a wealth of knowledge so we spoke for quite some time about roses. I never felt rushed or that he didn’t have time for me. Next we had lunch in their restaurant. The food came quickly and I can honestly say it was the best fish and chips I have ever had. It came with so many chips that I could not manage them all. They were cooked to perfection as was the fish. The rushed peas were lovely and the home made tartare sauce was fantastic. Staff too were so friendly. It’s worth coming here just for refreshments or a meal.
The part I’d really been looking forward to was the rose gardens. They didn’t disappoint. The standard of presentation was superb. Nothing out of place, all the plants clearly marked and an added bonus was that so much was still in bloom. It wasn’t over busy so we had plenty of space and time for wandering round and residing what roses I liked the best and what I would add to my wish list.
All in all it exceeded our expectations and we probably spent about 4 hours there. Thank you to all the lovely staff. I already want to go back.
翻译:我们参观大卫·奥斯汀玫瑰园的体验棒极了。我们于9月12日星期六前往,经过漫长的车程后大约在11点左右到达。我特意希望得到一些指导,以便辨认我花园里种的一种玫瑰。植物区的一位工作人员对各种玫瑰了如指掌,他立刻就帮我辨认出了那种玫瑰。他知识极其渊博,于是我们就玫瑰的话题聊了很久。我丝毫没有感到被催促,也完全没觉得他没时间搭理我。随后我们在他们的餐厅用午餐。食物上得很快,说实话,那是我吃过的最棒的炸鱼薯条。薯条的量多到我根本吃不完。鱼和薯条都炸得恰到好处。豌豆也煮得不错,自制的塔塔酱更是美味至极。服务员也非常友善。即便只是为了喝点东西或吃顿饭,来这儿也绝对值得。
我最期待的部分就是玫瑰园了。它果然没有让我失望。整个展览的呈现效果堪称出色。一切都井然有序,所有植物都标有清晰的标签;更令人欣喜的是,当时仍有大量花卉正在绽放。现场并不拥挤,我们有足够的空间和时间来慢慢游览,挑选出自己最喜欢的玫瑰品种,并把它们列入心愿清单。
总的来说,这次参观远远超出了我们的预期,我们在那里大约待了4个小时。感谢所有热情周到的工作人员。我现在就迫不及待想再去了。
