The Lighter Side
A photographic journey through joy at Hestercombe
This event has ended
A limited number of tickets have been made available for a private tour of the gardens on the evening of Wednesday 19th June in aid of the National Garden Scheme.
Please arrive promptly at 6pm for a glass of wine, and an introductory talk by Head Gardener, Claire Greenslade, after which there will be the opportunity to explore the gardens, accompanied by Claire.
This will be a unique experience to explore the gardens in the early evening when the garden is closed to other visitors.
