We got bought this experience for a wedding gift and we had a wonderful afternoon at Chapel Down. The guide was really friendly and informative and the wine tasting delicious! Chapel Down is a very pretty place!

Knowledgeable and engaging guide. Great beers, great atmosphere, my wife and I loved it.

Great wines with lots to try. An interesting tour even in the rain! Andrew our guide was very knowledgeable. Highly recommend

My wife and I had such a lot of fun. We were lucky in that we were the only two people in the group but Simone and Lily pulled out all the stops and made us feel so welcome.

This experience was truly wonderful. We were met in the car park and shown to a seating area where we had tea of coffee. We were led into a marquee where the owner explained how the vines are grown and tended which was both entertaining and informative. We were shown around the vineyard to see the various types of grapes growing. We were then led into the winery where the grapes are pressed and the grape juice processed and saw the various vats and bottling machines etc. We then went back to the marquee for the wine tastings which was great - the different flavours really came through. We had a generous ploughman’s lunch followed by a lovely cheesecake. We then went to the shop and purchased a box of wine. It was a really lovely relaxing experience and would thoroughly recommend.

It was a gift for a friend’s birthday and he loved it. Great food, beer and the service was excellent.

An extremely professional, informative and well-organised experience. Highly recommended

Although the actual tour was cancelled due to illness we still had the wine tasting. We were given a talk about the different grapes they use and how the wine is made. During the talk, by a very knowlegable gentleman, we were given a glass of sparkling rose wine then we had the tasting, a dry rose, a white and a red. They were very nice. We had a very nice time.

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!
