点评:This was the 3rd castle that we visited on our Scotland visit.
Once you have paid and parked head over to the welcome centre where you pay for entry and can arrange for a tour of the castle. I think the maximum size for the group is 20 and they are every 30 minutes. You will be given a map of the grounds from where you can plan to go.
This castle hosts the national Daffodils collection so by going in April we did see everything out rather than stretches of blank ground.
There is also a playful garden for the younger kids.
We had an hour and a half before our tour time so walked around some of the large grounds, spotting daffodils everywhere, and included the lake walk. the lake was so quiet and peaceful meaning you could really hear the birdsong which was great.
We popped in for a coffee and a cake (coffee was better than Balmoral) and sat in the old kitchens.
The tour around castle (takes about an hour) started at the front entrance once everyone had arrived and tickets had been checked. The tour was excellent, full of information about the building, rooms and former occupants. If you can do it!
翻译:这是我们苏格兰之行参观的第三座城堡。
付款并停车后,前往接待中心支付入场费,并安排城堡游览。我认为团体人数最多为20人,每30分钟一班。您将获得一张城堡地图,以便您规划游览路线。
这座城堡是国家水仙花收藏地,所以四月份去参观,我们确实看到了所有地方,而不是一片空白。
城堡里还有一个供小孩子们玩耍的花园。
距离游览时间还有一个半小时,所以我们在一些大片的庭院里散步,随处可见水仙花,还包括湖边漫步。湖面非常宁静祥和,您可以听到鸟鸣,这真是太棒了。
我们进去喝了杯咖啡,吃了块蛋糕(咖啡比巴尔莫勒尔宫的咖啡好),并在古老的厨房里坐了一会儿。
城堡之旅(大约需要一个小时)在所有人到达并检票后从正门开始。这次参观非常棒,对这栋建筑、房间以及曾经的主人都了解得清清楚楚。如果你能来的话!
