The tour of this Georgian house brings history to life - do book this!
Wordsworth House and Garden的点评
点评：In Cockermouth I intended to visit the House of Wordsworth. The village itself is very quaint but all “residential parking” with discs. I managed to find a public carpark at the top of the hill and had to walk down into the town to the Georgian House where Wordsworth had lived his early years.
As I entered the National Trust shop/ ticket office a lady was being told that entry to the house was by booked tour only, two tours per day and fully booked for that day. She had come from London to visit this house. If it had said it should be booked on the website I would have done so but it didn’t and I joined in with this lady’s protestations. Fortunately, the girl on the desk relented and squeezed us into the last tour. We only had five minutes to wait for the tour. I had a really good visit in the end but I have included this experience in my narrative to warn visitors to check thoroughly before travelling any distance. Opening times at this National Trust site is limited and on top of that the house is not open to visitors unless booked on a tour.
The volunteer guide we had was excellent and she painted quite a picture of times gone by, where today’s sayings come from, and the life the Wordsworth family had until their parents both died within four years of one another, leaving the children orphaned. At this point, they were thrown out of the family home, the youngest went to family and the older boys were fostered, which included William.
Very pretty garden which is also a kitchen garden.

翻译：在科克茅斯，我原本打算参观华兹华斯故居。这个村庄本身非常古朴，但所有停车位都属于“居民专用”，需要打停车牌。我好不容易在山顶找到一个公共停车场，然后不得不步行下山到镇上，去参观华兹华斯早年居住的那座乔治亚风格的故居。
当我走进国民信托商店/售票处时，一位女士被告知，参观故居必须提前预约，每天只有两场导览，而且当天已经全部订满了。她特地从伦敦赶来参观这座故居。如果网站上写明需要预约，我肯定会提前预约，但网站上并没有，所以我只好和这位女士一起提出异议。幸运的是，柜台的工作人员最终通融了一下，把我们安排进了最后一场导览。我们只等了五分钟就出发了。最终，我的参观体验非常棒，但我还是想把这段经历写进游记，提醒其他游客在远道而来之前一定要仔细查询信息。这个国民信托景点的开放时间有限，而且故居本身只对预约参观的游客开放。
我们的志愿者导游非常棒，她生动地描绘了过去的生活场景，讲述了如今谚语的由来，以及华兹华斯一家在父母四年内相继去世前的生活，孩子们因此成了孤儿。之后，他们被赶出了家门，最小的孩子被送去亲戚家，大一点的男孩们则被寄养，威廉就是其中之一。
花园非常漂亮，同时也是一个菜园。
