Visited in October 25. The formal gardens are beautiful and the estate grounds around are magical with lots of garden houses to sit and enjoy the stunning views. The house is full of history and there is a great second hand book shop and cafe. We had lunch, the food was delicious and the coffee the best I've come across.
Really lovely day.

Well worth the voluntary donation to enter. Beautiful setting in historic surroundings. We particularly enjoyed the current exhibition on the Monmouth Rebellion. Thank you.

Was primarily interested in the history of the army regiments from Somerset, and it didn't disappoint.
At Rourke's drift, Lt John Chard was commissioned in the Royal Engineers, but was a proud Somerset man!
Worthwhile paying a visit for all that is on offer, and making a small donation.

Loved our visit on Saturday 12th July 2025. Full of amazing rare artifacts and exhibits. Favourites for us were the mosaic and the Cheddar Brooch. It was thrilling to see the objects in person rather than just on the TV.
Staff and volunteers were really friendly and knowledgeable and you could tell they were happy to be there.
The cafe was reasonably priced and the food we had was delicious, especially the cheese scone!!
Will be visiting again and highly recommend that you do too. It is free to visit but please make a donation as we need to keep places like this open.
