Price: £10

The distillery is hard to find as there are no signposts and the distillery is down a number of single-track roads; instead follow the signposts for the cheese farm.
The tour I was booked on was late starting. Just before the scheduled time, we were told they were waiting for a “bus-load” to arrive. The distillery is only a small one and there was already eight of us waiting, so it was looking like it would be a cramped tour.
To wait, we were left standing outside in the sun on a hot May day with clear-blue skies. We weren’t told how long we would have to wait.
After 10 minutes standing in the sun, we were taken to the tasting room to sit down to wait for the bus to arrive. The guide started giving a speech on the cheese they make, until a couple arrived to buy cheese; the guide broke off from speaking to us to deal with the cheese customers.
While they were dealt with, and after they left, we were left sitting for over 10 minutes to then be told we’d wait five more minutes for the bus to arrive and start if they didn’t.
Five minutes later, they hadn’t arrived so the tour did start. Five minutes later they did arrive and I feared the worst, but our tour continued with the eight people and they followed on a second tour. Why this hadn’t been done 25 minutes before I don’t know.
The tour itself, once it started, was informative and we were told a little about the history of the distillery, the spirits they produce and then taken on the tour and shown the equipment.
The person I thought was the guide, didn’t run the tour. Instead we had one of the distillers running the tour, so they were fully informed and did give a good clear explanation.
After the tour we were taken back to the tasting room and able to sample several of the spirits they produce. As I was driving I did not sample the spirits (okay a little of the whisky), but opted to take one of the apple brandy miniatures (no whisky was available).
We were also invited to sample the cheeses produced on the farm; I tried a few and they were pretty good.
