It is an incredible place with a truly great exhibition programme. I was there on business but will definitely be revisiting this stunning house and gardens.

We were very fortunate to visit Hestercombe on a near perfect winter day. But even if it had been raining we would have enjoyed it's spectacular walks. Very well organised, with a friendly and helpful staff, it was worth our 2 hour car journey. We had both coffee and lunch in the Stables restaurant/cafe which was good. It can get busy so do book a table for lunch.

Lovely gardens, that are a well maintained landscape. Several interesting follies and spectacular cascade.
As a bonus there is good food in the cafe.

A wonderful garden. Something for everyone, with formal planted gardens, but also excellent walking up through the combe to the far end of the estate. Dog friendly too! 🐕

Loved the gardens / very quirky with unusual buildings dotted about. Snowdrops were stunning. Fantastic licensed cafe. Make great cheese scones served with cream cheese and chutney

Nice quiet place to visit. Even though it's winter, the plants are lovely. Plenty of room for children and dogs to run around

Always a joy to visit no matter the weather. I wish they would ditch (or recycle) plastic cutlery and take out cups used for events

Not the cheapest place to stop on a trip to Cornwall but excellent restaurant lovely grounds and interesting art if the weather is bad it is worth the entry price.

I found area beautiful in which Hestercombe sits was lovely. There is a lot that they could do with the gardens, which I guess comes down to funding.
I will be honest and say I was a little disappointed with the Christmas light display, but perhapsI have been spoilt with some of the other displays I have had insight to.e.g. Wakehurst Place, Kew, Eltham Palace.
I also found the general condition of the house very sad. No furnishings, damp smell and no art displays. Perhaps Herstercombe could really do with a big cash injection or a wealthy investor like The Newt in Somerset.

Lovely illuminations - not a very long trail, so it was over too quickly but very well designed

I treated my husband for a birthday present to see the illuminations. Wow! We were not disappointed, they were amazing. Such a beautiful evening, so many to see. We walked around the lake with lights all around. Thank you to Hestercombe for all their hard work.

Great festive lights in the garden! Coffee shop on arrival doing take aways so you can walk round with a fresh cup of coffee or mulled wine. Coffee shop serving drinks, cake and food at the end the route. Took about an hour slow walking the route but some really hypnotic lighting!

Went to see the Lights at Hestercombe Gardens. Good, but expensive. Food in cafe was also expensive.
We think Hestercombe members should be given discount.

Have not come to the garden in the day we did the Christmas light .It was a lovely night .The grand looked beautiful and well laid out .The cafe was open for hot drinks and snacks .

The experience was alot quicker than expected. The elf welcomed us where the children made reindeer food and did some word searches and wrote letters to Santa to post in the box. It would have been good to have some general colouring or Christmas card making/sticking for smaller children who are not able to do word searches yet. The children enjoyed Santa and loved their presents.
