“We had a wonderful afternoon tea here - the classic combination of sandwiches, small cakes, scones and cream with individual pots of tea chosen from a wide choice of teas. Everything was just perfect from decor to service to the view from the windows.” Trip Advisor

“The Column Restaurant at Hestercombe House, near Taunton, serves the most wonderful Champagne cream tea, for £24.95 per head. There is a superb selection of finger sandwiches, scones and various little delicacies, along with a big range of teas. Their Masala Chai is the best! When you book, if you mention vegetarian or other dietary requirements, you will be fully catered for. Just don't plan to eat dinner afterwards. You won't need it! Before your tea, there are beautiful gardens and a woodland walk to enjoy, to sharpen your appetite.” Trip Advisor

“Went here last year for my mum's birthday...it was lovely, tasty and indulgent!” Facebook
