Beautiful setting with Highland Cows! The food is excellent and there's no cost for wine tasting. Try to go on the weekend as they have live music which just adds to the stunning setting. Bookings are recommended.

Great atmosphere overlooking the vineyard. You can have a platter of food with your wine tasting too. If you happen to find Glen there on the day, he is super knowledgeable and you can tell his love of the grape and all the complexities behind the vine in the glass.
