Hestercombe Gardens: Visit Hestercombe and step back in time as you savour the delights of the unique gardens.
Hestercombe is unique in having three complete period gardens. The Georgian landscape, Victorian terrace and the formal Edwardian gardens combine to create one of Britains premier garden sites widely recognised as being of international importance.
Hestercombe is situated on the southern slopes of the Quantock Hills with extensive views over the Vale of Taunton to the Blackdown Hills beyond. Much of the character of the buildings and gardens at Hestercombe is derived from the local stone that lies close to the surface and frequently outcrops.
