点评:My partner and I visited the Ram Inn Wotton-under-Edge during their so called "open day".
She had visited a few weeks earlier. after firstly checking their website to confirm opening times. It states (and still states) that they are open Monday to Friday from 0900hrs-1600hrs. After a two hour journey she found the place was closed, even though their website was still saying that it was open.
We were greeted by a lovely lady dressed in a witches costume who guided us through into a barn. I would imagine most of the staff are volunteers. Overall, we found that the venue was very interesting. However, the interior was filled full of cheap and tacky Halloween tat which TBH spoilt the experience. As we went from room to room, there were people, mainly staff, sitting aroung chatting and eating as if it were some sort of social outing. Most of the other visitors were groups of amateur paranormal investigators and seemed to take over the place. We, and others we spoke to, felt as if we were "in the way" and not welcome. We would have liked to have had a chance to look at the displayed items, but couldn't because of the lack of space taken up by these groups. Forgive me but I thought that this was an open day for punters like me to meander at our leisure and take in the decrepit ambiance of what was on offer. Our visit was far from this.
In a nutshell, a poorly executed so called "open day" with unprofessional staff who clearly were only interested in seeing out their day.
organised experience.
翻译:我和伴侣在拉姆客栈所谓的“开放日”那天前往沃顿-安德-埃奇参观。
几周前,她曾先查看了客栈的网站以确认开放时间。网站上写明(现在依然如此):周一至周五的开放时间为上午9点至下午4点。然而经过两小时的车程后,她发现客栈竟然关门了,尽管网站上仍显示着“营业中”。
接待我们的是一位身着女巫服装的可爱女士,她领我们走进了谷仓里。我猜大多数工作人员都是志愿者。总的来说,我们认为这个场地非常有趣。不过,室内到处都是廉价又俗气的万圣节装饰品,说实话这破坏了整体的体验。当我们从一个房间走进另一个房间时,看到很多人——主要是工作人员——围坐在一起聊天、吃东西,就好像这是一次社交活动似的。其他大多数参观者则是一些业余的灵异现象调查者,他们似乎把整个地方给“占领”了。我们以及和我们交谈过的其他人也都有同感。感觉我们仿佛“碍事”且不受欢迎。我们本希望能有机会看看展出的物品,但由于那些人群占据了太多空间,我们根本做不到。恕我直言,我原以为这是个开放日,像我这样的参观者可以随心所欲地闲逛,尽情感受那些展品所营造的怀旧氛围。然而我们的体验却完全不是如此。
简而言之,……一次举办得很糟糕的所谓“开放日”,工作人员毫无专业素养,显然只想着混完一天而已。整个活动组织得也很糟糕。
