Very pleasant experience, the gardens are majestic and the paths are good for little ones to explore. Definitely worth a visit if looking for a mellow but thoroughly day out. Very reasonably priced also with children under 5 free.

We came here for lunch on our visit to Hestercombe house & gardens, excellent restaurant. We was greeted promptly and seated by a polite staff member. It was quite a hot day and we was offered a jug of water with ice and an lemon slice. Which was just what we needed. We both ordered the chicken burger and chips and it was lovely.

Always so impressed by the food here! We've had many lovely lunches and today was no different. I had the seafood bisque with crab gnocchi which was divine, it was so refined it almost felt as though it could have been on MasterChef! It's always nice to sit outside on a sunny day too, the courtyard is an amazing suntrap. Never disappointed, highly recommend!

Great resteraunt that you can visit without paying the entrance fee to the main gardens. Food was very good with friendly staff. Resteraunt set in the old stables there is outside seating with a cafe that offers cakes and sandwiches.
