We had an excellent experience at Chapel Down winery. Our host Andrew took us on a tour of the vineyard and we enjoyed some delicious wines in the tasting room. It was a nice group size - not too big so that you could still hear everything the host was saying. We’d love to return in the summer!

Andrew led our winery tour and tasting - he was fantastic! Very knowledgeable, engaging and funny. The tasting was very generous (I'd recommend getting a taxi to your next destination if you want to enjoy the tasting to it's fullest), and, of course, the wines were absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to go back! This would make a great gift for a wine lover.

Wine tasting with cheese pairing was thoroughly enjoyable. Freddie who took the tour was a great mix of knowledgeable, approachable and dry sense of humour. The vineyard and production tour was very interesting, and the wine tasting with accompanying cheese didn’t disappoint. We stayed at the nearby Print House in Tenterden (who even drove and collected us!) making it all the more enjoyable. Book a tasting, you will not regret it!

My wife and I really enjoyed our tour of Chapel Down. The setting is beautiful and the weather was also fantastic, which no doubt helped. Andrew, our guide, was knowledgable and generous with the wine samples (our small tour group size was a definite benefit here). We also came away with a few bottles, so all in all a great afternoon out. If you're in the area and like wine, I'd definitely recommend a visit.

An absolute wonderful day out for the wife and I. We went for the wine tasting for 2 and tour of the grounds. Weather held out for us, which was a bonus. Was a very informative tour, really impressive lands and the best bit, the wine tasting! Had really good fun, mingled with others, and everyone became much chattier after a glass or 2! 😆 James was a great guide and the shop is amazing! Not just the wine but local foods are fantastic too. Wonderful range.

We all really enjoyed our winery tour by the wonderful, funny and very informative Andrew... who knew that it takes 6 turns to remove the protective bottle wire 😊 All the wines that we tasted were fabulous. We also ate in the restaurant which was also ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! We would definitely recommend a visit to Capel Down.

Did the luxury dining experience with my wife on Saturday night and had an amazing time! We first had a group tour with Tom who was one of the best guides I’ve ever come across. Super engaging and informative. This was followed by a wine tasting spanning 7 wines and then a 3 course meal with wine pairings. We were also gifted a bottle each to take with us. Besides it being excellent value, the wines taste great as does the food at The Swan. It’s a beautiful venue and we left very much looking forward to our next glass of Chapel Down wines!

We did the vineyard tour in June 2023 our guide Andrew was absolutely excellent, making it informative entertaining and professional. We had a great time and I would thoroughly recommend it. We were there most of the day as we took the opportunity to have lunch there afterwards in the restaurant which is absolutely superb. It’s not a cheap restaurant but it’s fine dining and the food and service I can thoroughly recommend. We were staying locally and found it hard to get taxis as the location is rather between towns so it’s worth pre-booking taxis if you need them. An altogether great day out. 5 Star. Martyn

Had a wonderful vineyard tour here and wine tasting. Tour guide was lovely and even came out buying 2 wines! Would definitely recommend for a day trip during lovely weather. Has a lovely garden area to sit and have some wine and relax in the sun!! Will definitely come back

Excellent tour of winery given by Andrew, who made it humorous and fun. Beautiful setting with Tenterden Town only couple miles away. Not a keen white wine drinker, but learned a lot about wine-making in general and tasting wines. We were lucky to have sunny weather and sit outside after tour and sample some additional wines. Great day out
