点评:We travelled to Hopton Hall to visit the snowdrops, which we were expecting to be in abundance from information on the website. After paying £10 (£5 each) to the car park attendant, we were pointed in the direction of the 'snowdrop walk'. We were incredibly disappointed to find that all the snowdrops were past their best and dying back, no sign of different varieties emerging, other visitors were voicing the same comments to us. The cafe was in the old carriage/stable. On offer in the cafe were basic drinks (hot water in electric urns), tea and filter coffee - not even nice tasting. There was a small selection of cakes and pasties, sausage rolls. The way the cafe is advertised is misleading - 'seats up to 50' - don't expect a nice lunch. The portaloo toilets in the car park were reasonably clean, but the smell eminating from them was absolutely disgusting - they were obviously in desparate need of empting. All in all we felt the 30 mile journey to Hopton Hall was a complete waste of a morning and that the owners of this property were wrong to advertise the snowdrops as being out all February. We will not visit again and certainly won't recommend to others.
翻译:我们前往霍普顿庄园参观雪花莲,根据网站上的信息,我们预计雪花莲会非常丰富。向停车场服务员支付 10 英镑(每人 5 英镑)后,我们被指给了“雪花莲步道”的方向。我们非常失望地发现所有的雪花莲都已经过了最佳状态并枯萎了,没有任何不同品种出现的迹象,其他游客也向我们表达了同样的评论。咖啡馆位于旧马车/马厩内。咖啡馆里提供的是基本饮料(电热水壶里的热水)、茶和滴滤咖啡——味道都不好。有一小部分蛋糕、馅饼、香肠卷可供选择。咖啡馆的广告方式具有误导性——“最多可容纳 50 个座位”——不要指望能吃到美味的午餐。停车场的厕所还算干净,但里面散发出的气味绝对令人作呕——显然它们急需排空。总而言之,我们觉得前往霍普顿庄园的 30 英里旅程完全浪费了一个上午的时间,而且这家酒店的业主在广告中宣传雪花莲整个二月都在外面,这是错误的。我们不会再次访问,当然也不会推荐给其他人。
