Interesting House and Art. Confusing and Expensive Admission Fee
Charleston的点评
点评：Charleston is situated in the village of Firle which is just off the A27 around seven miles to the south east of Lewes.
I took the ‘Art Bus’ from outside the Charleston in Lewes, which took around 15 minutes.
I purchased a day bus ticket for £3.50 and I returned to the Towner in Eastbourne on it after my visit.
The house was inhabited by the Bloomsbury Set and there is plenty to view in the rooms especially paintings, ceramics and furniture.
There were guides in most rooms who were able to answer any questions.
Unfortunately none of the paintings are labelled so it wasn’t possible to discover the artists although I imagine most were by Duncan Grant and Vanessa Bell.
The surrounding gardens are pleasant with an allotment style plot with a scenic pond.
I visited the exhibition by Cedric Morris and Arthur Lett-Haines in an adjacent building which was good which included paintings by their pupils from Benton End including Maggi Hambling.
The on-site cafe was reasonably good too.
The previous day I visited the Charleston property in Lewes which had an even better collection of art.
The two exhibitions currently on show are Collecting Modernism : Pablo Picasso to Winifred Nicholson and Grayson Perry : A Temple For Everyone.
Both were excellent especially the Grayson Perry ceramics, maps and tapestries.
Great value for £7.50 with an Art Fund card.
Unfortunately the same cannot be said for Firle. Despite having the aforementioned Art Fund card, I appeared to be charged the full price of £26.50.
I queried this with the lady on the desk at the
special exhibition and she initiated a partial refund for me (not sure how much as it hasn’t come through as yet).
In any event, I found the admission prices generally quite steep at Firle and it wasn’t altogether clear what you were entitled to view for your admission fee.

翻译：查尔斯顿位于 Firle 村，该村位于 A27 公路旁，距离刘易斯东南约七英里。
我从刘易斯的查尔斯顿外乘坐“艺术巴士”，大约需要 15 分钟。
我购买了 3.50 英镑的一日巴士票，参观结束后乘车返回伊斯特本的 Towner。
房子里住着布鲁姆斯伯里派，房间里有很多东西可以欣赏，尤其是绘画、陶瓷和家具。
大多数房间都有导游，可以回答任何问题。
不幸的是，这些画都没有标签，所以无法发现艺术家，尽管我猜大部分是 Duncan Grant 和 Vanessa Bell 的作品。
周围的花园令人愉悦，有一块分配式地块，还有一个风景优美的池塘。
我参观了塞德里克·莫里斯和亚瑟·莱特-海恩斯在相邻建筑中举办的展览，展览很不错，包括他们来自本顿恩德的学生的画作，包括玛吉·汉布林。
现场咖啡馆也相当不错。
前一天，我参观了刘易斯的查尔斯顿地产，那里的艺术收藏更加丰富。
目前展出的两个展览是“现代主义收藏：从巴勃罗·毕加索到温妮弗雷德·尼科尔森”和“格雷森·佩里：人人皆宜的寺庙”。
两个展览都很棒，尤其是格雷森·佩里的陶瓷、地图和挂毯。
用艺术基金卡，7.50 英镑的价格非常划算。
不幸的是，Firle 的情况并非如此。尽管有上述艺术基金卡，但我似乎被收取了 26.50 英镑的全价。
我向特别展览台的女士询问了这个问题，她为我办理了部分退款（不确定退款金额，因为还没有到账）。
无论如何，我发现 Firle 的门票价格通常相当高，而且你并不完全清楚你支付的门票钱能让你看到什么。
