Come and visit our Gift Shop and Plant Centre by the Courtyard.
Notice
KIDS GO FREE THIS EASTER, Monday 7th April to Monday 21st April.
Applicable for children aged 15 and under.
From Monday 3rd February, the Stables Restaurant will be open only on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The Gardens, House and gift shop are open daily as usual.
The Secondhand Bookshop
The Bookshop is moving to a new location in the Visitor's Centre, next to the ticket office, plant sales and restaurant. The shop will be closed between Monday 21st April and Thursday 24th April while we relocate. The best bit... you will no longer need to pay garden admission to shop!
A book lover’s paradise, the Secondhand Bookshop lends itself to some serious browsing. With a wide selection of categories available covering gardening, travel, fiction, children’s, cookery, specialist titles and more, there’s something for everyone.
Making a book donation
The Book Shop is stocked by book donations and run by a fantastic team of volunteers, meaning all proceeds raised go directly to the Hestercombe Gardens Trust. These proceeds help us to continue with the maintenance, restoration and development of Hestercombe.
When making a donation, please bring your books in bags which you are happy to not be returned.
