I'm a student so I got in for £5/6 which is good value. WOuldnn't want to spend anymore. Nice gardens, plenty to see. Watermill is nice and the feel of the place is good.
Free electric car charge point if anyone is interested.

Went on a cloudy dry day. Enjoyed sections of the gardens and the interesting watermill. Nothing realy of interest and no activities for the children. We enjoyed coffee and lunch time baguettes and panins. Entrance fee aprox £10 depending on age.

Truly stunning scenery. Beautiful formal gardens and if you are looking for peace and quiet just wander into the woods and either amble along or take a seat and enjoy the views from numerous hidden spots along the way. I loved it so much I have been back 3 times in the last week. And as an extra treat don't miss the cakes in the cafe.

My husband and I have wanted to visit the Gardens for ages but decided we would make time on this trip to the West Country. It did not disappoint. Fabulous views and plenty of interest in the Autumn Gardens.

We chose a damp day to visit but that didn't distract from the beauty of everything. Slightly disappointed that we were obviously too early for the autumn colours despite it being halfway through October.
Lovingly restored gardens were a delight to walk around with the added bonus of being able to bring the family dog with us - top marks for making us feel welcome with him, thank you.
A very tasty lunch was had in the cafe but I would have like to have had a toasted sandwich without the obligatory salad and serving of rice (my husband ate those two offerings for me), but this meant that I'd paid about £6 just for a toasted sandwich. So maybe a simpler menu please?

If you like gardens you will like this one. Quite large and well worth a visit. Go and see the restoration that has taken place, set in the heart of the Somerset countryside.

Despite visiting following torrential rain, these gardens still managed to retain their beauty at the beginning of Autumn! Plenty of winding paths for children to explore and beautiful views aplenty. There is a lovely cafe serving superb and very reasonably priced homemade food. All the staff were friendly, welcoming and knowledegable which always makes a huge difference. All in all a facinating day out for adults and children alike, not to mention dogs, which are welcome in all areas of the garden and with a covered seating area outside the cafe, they can even join you for coffee!!

Got married here in November. Everything was perfect from the entrance of the bride, food and staff (both on the day and before in preparation for the big day). We would thoroughtly recommend you to have your wedding here in the Orangery but also to visit the fabulous gardens.
