Excellent day out. Highly recommended!
We had a fantastic day at Shawsgate Vineyard. The tour was extremely informative and the guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. The lunch consisted of cheese, ham, salad and bread with a delicious cheesecake for dessert. There was no choice, but the food was good. The wine tasting involved quite a lot of wine, and we were able to choose a glass of our favourite for lunch - something to consider if you are driving! I would highly recommend this!

Slug & Lettuce
We received a buyagift voucher and chose to upgrade it which was a very easy process and was booking the meal at our chosen venue. The meal was very good and the venue managed the voucher process without any difficulty.

Wonderful Afternoon Tea
Wonderful Afternoon Tea at The Priest House by the river. Despite the poor weather outside, the staff were bright and cheery and couldnt do enough to make sure your visit was enjoyable. We will definately go back next year when the sun comes out again as I am sure it will be lovely to sit outside by the river.

Accessible for wheelchair users and great fun
Brocklebys where great. Easy to contact ( unlike buyagift) and made sure I was given a lower table to work on. The evening was great fun and our pies where amongst the best there (though we are both hands on arty people :-)

Little treat
We were 45mins due to the road being closed, I would have appreciated the hotel calling to let us know this, but once we arrived they were very accommodating, one of the parry was lactose intolerant, which they catered for. Very friendly, efficient service.
