点评:Hill Top House is a must see when visiting the Lake District for it being the home of famous Beatrix Potter. Me and my husband with our 2 year old son visited at 10am for when it opened, we are National Trust members so this always free. We weren’t aware that you have to pre book parking as this is very limited, the member of staff told us that there was parking availability in the afternoon or there is a very small car park just down the road opposite a play park, the play park asks for a donation for its usage. I felt like I needed to share this with parents who would like to visit with children as on the outside there isn’t much for children at Hill Top House, but being able to play in this play park was a lovely addition. It’s maintained by the community and asks for a donation for its upkeep. There was about 4 parking spaces so very limited. You can walk along the road through the village to the ticket desk for hill top house via their car park, once you get your tickets/ tokens you are advised to walk around the corner to gain entrance to the property. Be aware especially with young children that it is a busy road so be careful. There is a lovely gift National Trust gift shop selling Beatrix Potter gifts, a little out door cafe offering hot/cold drinks and snacks. Plenty of grass space with picnic tables. It was lovely to visit the house, the staff are so informative and very passionate about Beatrix Potter’s legacy. There was a mouse trail in the house for older children to look for. I would recommend visiting with children, especially with the community play park down the road worth a visit
翻译:山顶屋 (Hill Top House) 是游览湖区必去之地,因为它是著名作家碧翠丝·波特 (Beatrix Potter) 的故居。我和丈夫带着两岁的儿子早上十点就去参观了,因为山顶屋刚开放。我们是国民托管组织 (National Trust) 的成员,所以停车位一直免费。我们之前不知道停车位需要提前预订,因为停车位非常有限。工作人员告诉我们,下午有空位,或者在游乐园对面的路边有一个很小的停车场,这个游乐园需要捐款才能使用。我觉得有必要告诉那些想带孩子来参观的家长们,因为山顶屋外面没有太多适合儿童游乐的地方,但能在这个游乐园里玩耍真是太好了。山顶屋由社区维护,需要捐款才能维护。停车位大约有四个,非常有限。您可以沿着穿过村庄的道路,经由停车场走到山顶屋的售票处。拿到门票/代币后,建议您绕过拐角进入。尤其要注意,这条路很繁忙,带小孩子一定要小心。这里有一家精美的国民托管组织礼品店,出售碧翠丝·波特的礼品,还有一家小型户外咖啡馆,提供冷热饮品和小吃。草坪开阔,配有野餐桌。参观这栋房子真是太棒了,工作人员知识渊博,对碧翠丝·波特的遗产充满热情。房子里有一条老鼠小路,大一点的孩子可以去寻找。我建议带孩子去参观,尤其是路边的社区游乐园也值得一游。
