Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

I found the tour very interesting and informative. The builder of the house, George Read, Jr, was the son of one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. Although successful himself, Jr never quite lived up to his father’s fame and political triumph. But he built a magnificent house that has been beautifully restored and maintained. Anyone interested in early American interiors will be fascinated by the details of architecture and decor. The gardens, installed by a later owner, are also very lovely. The tour lasted about an hour and it was a bit hard for my young son to be patient but it was all worthwhile when he was allowed to choose some marbles from the small gift shop. I enjoyed the tour a lot and look forward to returning to New Castle.

The guided your was very interesting, informative and upbeat. Each floor of the house had interesting history. The gardens on the grounds are well kept.

Beautiful house with history. Open only on Saturday and Sunday at this time of the year. The gardens are perfectly manicured.

My mom and I were on a road trip and decided to stop in Delaware to visit the Read House. We signed up for the guided tour, which was wonderfully informative and took us through the downstairs of the house and through the town. Definitely worth the stop and would love to come back and stay a couple days in the town.

This mansion tells the stories of three families who lived there from the early 1800s through the donation of the building to the Historical Society. It is kept in excellent condition, with period furniture throughout and most of the original architecture intact. We popped in and paid a few dollars for a tour through the rooms, which lasted about 40 minutes. You go through the first and second floors, including the servant spaces and kitchen, and hear a lot about the history of the house from the unliked Mr. Read to the fun-loving Lairds with their tenuous grasp of history. I highly recommend you visit this home after visiting the Dutch House and Amstel House, so that you get three different homes, built as the wealth of New Castle increased over 170 years.

Read House is a beautifully preserved Federal style house overlooking the Delaware river. We ended up having a private tour as it was out of season and our guide was very knowledgable. If you are interested in historic homes and domestic architecture then put this on your list. New Castle itself is also a lovely town to wander round on foot spotting architrectural details and soaking up the atmosphere.

My husband and I toured the Read House Gardens. The tour was about one hour. We learned a lot of interesting information about the Read Family. The Read House Gardens was beautifully built and is an America treasure. The house was designed for George Read II, son of the signer of both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. The Read House’s has 22 rooms and is located in the quaint town of New Castle Delaware. The only down side it is not handicap friendly I think because of the stairs. Contact them directly to double check before you visit. A wonderful piece of history.

We have been members of the Delaware Historical Society for many years, yet had never visited this landmark location. My husband, a friend and I visited on a beautiful Wednesday and benefited from a private tour by Sarah. She was well informed of the history of the house and could answer all of our questions. We were impressed with the restoration and effort to bring back the original integrity of the house. The gardens were quite nice, but not as well attended as the house with quite a bit of weeding necessary. Overall, I would highly recommend this as a stop over while visiting historic New Castle.

This was the house of the son of one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. It's worth at least a look from the outside if you're pressed for time. We saw it on a short walk around town,a walk I'm glad we did because there is much beautiful architecture to be appreciated,homes, churches and public buildings from the nation's early years can be seen in what I consider a hidden gem, New Castle,Delaware. It's a place where I could feel the history not just see it.

I picked the perfect day to visit the Read House & Gardens in historic New Castle, DE. I was the only one there so I had the tour guide all to myself. It was architecturally impressive and historically significant. The flowers in the garden were in bloom and stunning.
