Hestercombe House & Gardens, Cheddon Fitzpaine, Taunton, is a quintessential English country garden but is unique in its combination of three periods of garden design including a Georgian Landscape Garden, a Victorian Terrace and an Edwardian Formal Garden designed by Edwin Lutyens and Gertrude Jekyll.

Comprising over fifty acres, Hestercombe has been lovingly restored to its original splendour and is now a historically significant garden of international acclaim.

The award-winning visitor facilities include the warm and welcoming Stables Restaurant with a bright, airy courtyard, gift shop and plant centre. Inside the historic Hestercombe House find Hestercombe Contemporary Art Gallery, gallery shop, second-hand bookshop and period rooms, providing lots more to see and do, whatever the weather.
