Beautiful walks and excellent formal gardens, despite the reduced staffing level. The picnic area on the lawn, cafe level, is well socially distanced, with lovely views.

Fantastic example of several centuries of garden design, including the wonderful Lutyens / Jekyll formal garden. Great day out for garden lovers, for nature lovers. 🙂

A little tired after having had to furlough lots of gardeners,but wonderful landscaping by Lutyens and I would like to have seen Gertrude Jeykell's original planting.

It's obviously been difficult to keep the gardens pristine with reduced staff during lockdown but this is clearly signed and explained as you arrive. Still the formal gardens are beautiful and the informal gardens expansive. We would have liked a bit more information about the place itself and the things there. Dunster gardens had a whole section on the history of the site and the gardens and I feel hestercombe could do with the same

A fabulous place to visit even on the drizzle! A great contrast between the landscaped upper gardens and the formal gardens next to the house.

Fantastic garden, i think the lack of visitors due to covid has made this place not the very best this year. Still its worth a visit with lot of friendly people and staff around. Hope it will go back to its former glory soon
