Can I bring a friend?​

If you have already been to our micro-distillery, you will know that space is extremely limited. It may be possible to bring a friend to join in the gin making experience with you but you will have to get in touch with us before hand as it will be first come, first served. A fee of £25 will be required on the day for the extra person if there are spaces available. Please contact us via our contact page or social media.

Can we leave a vehicle overnight?

You are welcome to leave your vehicle overnight at the farm but you do so at your own risk. We accept no liability or responsibility for damage accident or loss.
