FAQs

Are under 18s allowed?

Under 18s are welcome on the tour free of charge, but will not be able to partake in the cider tasting.

Do you allow hen and stag parties?

Yes! Weve hosted many hens and stags over the years and welcome such groups. The format of the tour would be the same as described above with a focus on learning about the orchard and cidermaking and whilst there will obviously be cider consumed, it wont be in huge quantities.

However, if youre looking for a more pub like experience in a beautiful private setting, with or without the tour, we can gladly provide that. Please get in touch with us directly to discuss your event.

Can I bring my dog?

Well behaved dogs on leads are welcome although be aware that we have free range chickens in the orchard and two inquisitve cats! Less
