Hestercombe Gardens
Discover Somerset and lose yourself (figuratively!) in 50 acres of lakes, temples, cascades and tranquil woodland walks, plus formal terraces, vivid colours and outstanding views.
One to take the camera along on! The restored 17th century watermill complex showcases the historic uses of renewable energy alongside the original working mill machinery and is set in the heart of the gardens. It's more accessible than ever now that they have a new Tramper Mobility Scooter which you can book ahead to help you get around, if you need it!
This is Hestercombe - a unique combination of 300 years' worth of garden design! Coplestone Warre Bampfylde's Georgian landscape garden, beside the Victorian terrace and shrubbery and the stunning Edwardian garden design by Sir Edwin Lutyens and Gertrude Jekyll. All of their gardens have undergone substantial and well received restoration works and today exist as gardens in greatly contrasting styles that continue to grow and develop within their borders.
