O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Generacije iste obitelji spavale su pod ovim krovom 150 godina, a posljednja vlasnica Mary odselila se tek 1986. Gotovo sav namještaj i posuđe na izložbi potječe iz tavana, smočnice i staje te iste obitelji.
Istaknuto: Mary je mjesto održala toliko nepromijenjenim da posjetitelji danas ulaze u sobe raspoređene onako kako ih je ostavila njezina prabaka. Vodiči otključavaju ormariće kako bi otkrili ručno krpanu odjeću, izvorne tapete i popise za kupnju ispisane škrabavim rukopisom koji su još uvijek olovkom na zidu smočnice.
Insajderski savjeti
- Book the first tour of the day to get near-empty rooms and extra time for questions with the guide.
- Wear flat, close-toed shoes because the original wide-plank floors are uneven and the upstairs stairs are steep.
- Skip the noon rush and finish your visit in the heirloom garden out back, where volunteers can name every heritage plant.
- Leave the flash off; the low natural light in the old rooms gives the interiors a genuine turn-of-the-century glow.
