Due to staff shortages in our catering team (congratulations to our Head Chef who has just gone on paternity leave), over the weekends of the 11th/12th and 18th/19th May we will be serving BBQ food only from outside our Stables Restaurant, as well as cakes, sandwiches and ice cream in our cafe. A limited menu will also be available from Monday to Friday over the next two weeks. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
We have some really beautiful weddings at Hestercombe - unsurprisingly I suppose, with the landscape and formal gardens acting as a backdrop - but this one was a little bit different.
Chris and Rhian were married on October 11th 2013 in the Temple.
For those who don't know, the Temple is situated at the top of the landscape gardens. It has incredible views out over the whole valley, perfectly framed by trees with the Pear Pond spreading out below. It is a short hike for visitors, let alone wedding guests to reach, but we like to think it's worth it, and Chris and Rhian certainly did. I'm sure you'll agree looking at their wonderful photos!

With guidance from our Wedding Co-ordinator, Julie, you can be sure to create a day to remember. Plus, of course, a photo album of divine images!
If you're planning your wedding, or even if you've just got engaged and looking for wedding venues near Taunton, come along on our Wedding Open Day on Sunday 11th May, 11am - 4pm. Each unique venue will be set up as though for a wedding and there will be a handful of carefully chosen exhibitors to give you some ideas. Staff will be on hand to answer all your questions and there will be canapes to test and a glass of fizz on arrival! FREE entry for all couples.
