Philip, our Chief Executive here at Hestercombe, joined the list of names honoured with an MBE last weekend in recognition of his services to Historic Garden Restoration. It is a well deserved appreciation of the 20 years of work he has devoted to recovering Hestercombe Gardens. It's a really exciting moment for Philip and for Hestercombe as a whole and we are all really pleased as it means greater national recognition for Hestercombe and a very promising start to 2013. Philip has shared his gratitude with the team, and hopes to continue the progression of Hestercombe with some exciting developments planned for 2013. As a small celebration we all enjoyed some delicious fresh pastries this morning and Philip recounted the story of opening the letter from the crown one month ago, only to be sworn to secrecy!
Notice
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.
