Guided Tours -
arranged from April to October by appointment in advance - can be tailored to suit the various requirements of your particular group.

A tour consists of a conducted walk around the vineyard with information presented by an expert guide - normally the owner or manager of the vineyard. Details of English wine in general and of Sedlescombe Organic Vineyard in particular are presented in a lively, informative style.

A full tour also takes the visitor on the Woodland Walk, filled with bluebells in May , and home to many species of birds. The walk across the rough hewen tree trunk at Judge's Bridge is another highlight of the wooded walk. Then on to a visit to the Winery, where participants can learn first-hand about the art of wine making in the traditional, organic way as well as see the plant and equipment required for apple juice and cider production. To conclude the tour, the group will be given a tutored tasting of Sedlescombe organic wines, etc.

The complete tour and tasting takes approx. one hour and there is plenty of opportunity to ask questions as well as purchase wines in 3-packs, 6-packs, and cases, all at discount prices.

Tour Operators and coach drivers are advised that coaches should drop off and collect their party at the vineyard entrance - NOTE there is not enough space to turn large vehicles in the vineyard car park!
