Better than the Estrella tour

Just finished a tour of Hawkstone Brewery at Bourton on the water. We have tried so many samples it’s a good job we left the car at the hotel and walked here. We loved all of them including the vodka. Our guide Sion was very friendly and informative, and very generous with the samples. We did a tour of the Estrella factory in Spain last year and, although it was very slick, the Hawkstone version was really authentic and very positively angled to support British farming.

Not for the faint hearted

Took my son as an 'End of Summer Holidays' treat. The location is perfect as there's free parking. It was a great experience, some nerve-wracking stages but overall a brilliant day out. Plan to go again and will definitely book through buyagift. Unfortunately my pictures are too big to upload
