    Nuostabus dvaras. Puikiai sutvarkytas. Manau, kad šeimininkai dar ne viską įgyvendino, bet tai tik laiko klausimas. Šiandien (2025-09-10) teko lankytis. Nurodytu telefonu pasiskambinus ir sutarus, mums buvo leista apžiūrėti teritoriją. Dėkojame už galimybę apžiūrėti nuostabaus grožio dvarą. Sėkmės Jums

    Tinklapyje rašoma, kad dvaro teritorija atvirai lankoma, tačiau atvykus pasivaikščioti pasitinka nemaloniai nusiteikusi rusakalbė moteris, kuri pakeltu tonu pasako: "nėra čia ką žiūrėti". Nors teritorija graži ir smagu pasivaikščioti aplinkui, tačiau nemalonus personalas gali sugadinti savaitgalio nuotaikas.
