Alison Rowe –

Excellent afternoon. Informative without being boring. Wines very good and excellent food.
Highly recommended.
10/10 for Value for money and Staff friendly and no strong sales push which in itself is refreshing
Will definitely be back

Catherine Browning –

Just come back from an amazing afternoon enjoying the ultimate wine and food tasting tour. Could not recommend more highly- the guy was brilliant- so informative! Bolney is in a beautiful location too. Very delicious wine served in very generous amounts- and delicious cheeses and charcuterie.
We will be back!

Katie& Mark Summers –

We have just come back from your wine tour and I wanted to email and say how wonderful we thought the lady running it was. She is INCREDIBLE! We couldn’t have been more impressed if we had tried. She was passionate, knowledgeable, personable, enthusiastic… and funny! We left wanting to shout Bolney Wine Estate from the rooftops.
We haven’t been before, brought 2 bottles of wine as she was so wonderful when selling/ telling us about them (they were glorious!)& will be booking in again soon!
Thank you so very much! We had a wonderful time.
