Greenway
My visit in 2011 / Moja návšteva 2011
Greenway was summer residence of Agatha Christie.I have visited it in 2011 and it was wonderful experience. I traveled two hours by Fairmile Ferry from Torquay Princess Pier to Dartmouth and 15 minutes by Christie Belle on the river dart to Greenway Quay. The othe possibility is vintage bus from Torquay directly to Greenway House. /
Greenway bol letným sídlom Agathy Christie. Navštívila som ho v r. 2011 a bol to krásny zážitok. Cestovala som dve hodiny loďou Fairmile Ferry z Torquay, z móla Princess Pier do Dartmouth a odtiaľ loďou Christie Belle 15 minút po rieke Dart k prístavisku Greenway. Iná možnosť je cestovať autobusom - veteránom z Torquay priamo ku Greenway House.
