There are a lot of paved carparks for this cellar door but they are shared with the very popular "Tasting Shed" Restaurant next door so does get busy around lunch time
This cellar door is set amongst some beautiful casually landscaped gardens with lawns surrounded by informal garden beds filled with trees and shrubs. There is also a pretty lilly pad covered pond at the bottom of the garden and a giant chess set
Commercial
The tasting room is reasonably modern, with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and slate floors
