Description

Good to Know

Enjoy an 8-hour chauffeur-guided tour to the scenic Cotswolds and the renowned Cotswolds Distillery. Admire rolling hills, charming stone villages, and thatched cottages as you travel through this area of natural beauty. At the Cotswolds Distillery, enjoy a tasting session of their award-winning whiskies and gins, one of the finest in England. You’ll have the opportunity to purchase some spirits and relax in the visitor centre and café. Lunch, brunch, or cream tea can be enjoyed in one of the lovely villages (not included in the tour cost). This fully customizable tour includes complimentary pick-up and drop-off within central London (Zones 1-3). Travel in comfort with a private Mercedes, accommodating up to 7 people, and benefit from expert commentary from your driver-guide. Note: You must be over 18 to consume alcohol. Minors are welcome and provided with soft drinks.

A Must Do

Hatty our tour guide was witty, entertaining and informative. The tour was the perfect balance between providing in-depth information, but without dragging on. A large emphasis was put on tasting the various products and they were very generous. Those who were driving also got given a takeaway bag so that they didn't miss out. Carrot cake from the cafe was very tasty. The only thing to consider is, taxis from Shipston are scarce and infrequent so ensure you book them in advance.

Dear Kamrang1995, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this great review. I’m really glad to hear your family had a great day at The Cotswolds Distillery but we didn’t provide this tour as we offer a chauffeur service on our tours and so you wouldn’t need a taxi from Shipston if you had booked with us at Bespoke England Tours. Best wishes, David

Very interesting visit

A must for Whiskey and Gin lovers. Hattie our tour guide was friendly and very informative, it was good to hear how the company started , and to see the distilling process from start to finish. The tasting part of the tour was absolutely fabulous ,we were able to try several different flavours of our own choice and then the option to buy from the shop. For those who were driving not to be left out were given their tasters to take home to enjoy. The whole experience was pleasurable and obvious...read more

Lovely place to visit

We sadly couldn’t get booked into the tour because they were fully booked. But we still went to see the shop, cafe and watch the video about the beginning of this wonderful place. Stella was so delightful, friendly and helpful and we sampled many of their gins and a whiskey. Cannot recommend this enough!

Hi Carol, Thank you for taking the time to leave this review but I think this review was meant for The Cotswolds Distillery itself. We are Bespoke England Tours and we arrange private car tours from London to visit the Cotswolds area of outstanding natural beauty and on some tours we visit this distillery. Although on this occasion you didn't take this tour with us we agree that The Cotswolds Distillery is an amazing place and well worth a visit. If you had been on one of our private tours you definitely would have got to do the whole distillery tour although it seems you had a lovely day anyway. Thanks, David Garcia Owner Bespoke England Tours

Superb...would ho again :)

Great trip...Best value for money, David was great and we felt we had much more than what we paid for. Private tour is already a must do for couples and small groups and when you have such a knowledgeable guide with a great sense of humor it cannot go wrong. Car was spotless clean, David is very punctual and speaks 3 + languages....I strongly recommend this company, 5 stars.

Dear Lord Lippi, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We're extremely satisfied to read that you thoroughly enjoyed your tour. We look forward to setting up more tours for your family in the future. Best wishes, David
