Lose yourself in fifty acres of
lakes, temples, cascades, tranquil woodland walks, formal terraces, vivid
colours and views that take your breath away.....
This is Hestercombe - a
unique combination of three centuries of garden design: Coplestone Warre
Bampfylde's Georgian landscape garden, the Victorian terrace and shrubbery and
the stunning Edwardian garden design by Sir Edwin Lutyens and Gertrude Jekyll.
All have undergone acclaimed restoration works and today provide important
examples of gardens in contrasting styles that continue to grow and develop.
The Pergola by Jason IngramThe award-winning visitor facilities include the
warm and welcoming Stables Restaurant & Coffee Shop with a bright, airy,
stylish Courtyard. The Gardens Shop is full of beautiful things for the home
and garden and the Plant Centre is well stocked with a wide variety of plants.
Lutyens Gallery, part of the Stables Restaurant has exhibitions by local
artists with new works on display every month. These facilities and the
well-appointed picnic area and under 7s playground have free entry.
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. Hestercombe is open all year round (except Christmas
Day), has lots of exciting events and loves your dogs! Hestercombe is an
independent charity and all proceed from garden admission, retail and events
support the restoration, maintenance and development of these beautiful
gardens.
