Bubbles & Castles in Kent

Yotes Court Winery - Tour & Tasting

We will have a tour and tasting at the vineyard which is located to the west of Yotes Court, an historic English Heritage Grade 1 listed manor house between the picturesque villages of West Peckham and Mereworth in Kent.

Originally a soft and top fruit farm the vineyard was meticulously planted in 2016 following discussions with Stephen Skelton MW who identified it as a perfect site. The land is a beautiful south sloping site looking towards Bidborough Ridge and Tunbridge Wells with free-draining soil full of chunks of Kentish ragstone. When it comes to the soil for growing the perfect grapes the rockier the better. 

Enjoy a tour and tasting at Squerryes Estate, a 300 year old 2,500 acre estate that bottles joy in the form of vintage sparkling wine. In 2021, Squerryes was recognised as one of the top five sparkling wine and champagne brands in the world by the International Wine Challenge. Learn about the history of Squerryes Winery, before enjoying a tasting of vintage sparkling wines in the Cork Room.

Hever Castle & Gardens

The childhood home of Anne Boleyn, Hever Castle & Gardens was the seat of the Boleyn family from 1462 to 1539. Hever later passed ownership to Henry VIIIs later wife, Anne of Cleves. William Waldorf Astor saved the castle from falling into decline by investing time, money and imagination into restoring the castle, with the 'Tudor Village' and magnificent gardens and lake being commissioned to transform the Castle into a home that envisions wealth, history and passion.
