Hestercombe Gardens, Taunton - just two and a half miles from Taunton town centre are the spectacular Hestercombe Gardens. Over 40 acres of exquisite formal and landscape gardens and woodland, offering a year round destination for all the family. And your dogs are welcome!
Do run on the grass, splash in the pools, scramble in the woods or simply take time to 'stop and stare' at the breathtakingly beautiful views across the lakes, ponds and cascades with surprises around every corner and tranquil areas just for quiet contemplation. When every corner has been explored the day can be topped off with a sumptuous tea (with Chef's homemade cakes!) or a hearty lunch.
