What an enjoyable experience we had visiting this fantastic brewery. Wonderful to hear all about its history and facts about the brewing process from our knowledgeable and friendly tour guide Chris. We also very much enjoyed the beer tasting session at the end. Well worth a visit!

Hook Norton Brewery

Brewery tours run Monday to Sunday, starting from the Visitors Centre, they last approximately 2 hours. The first 1½ hours are spent around the brewery where you'll see our original steam engine, learn about our history and how we make our range of delicious beers. Once outside the Brewery, don't forget to keep an eye out for our working Shire horses, which still deliver beer to our local pubs. In any event, the tour of the brewery includes a tour of the stables so you won’t miss out on seeing these amazing animals. Upon completion of the tour, it's back to our sampling bar in the Visitor Centre for a ½ hour beer tasting. It is essential to book a Brewery Tour by contacting us on the phone or email. Costs from £12.50 - £15.00

We stayed locally and came to the restaurant here twice for a great breakfast. We stayed for an absolutely fascinating tour from Chris, who introduced us to the shire horses and did a brilliant job educating our mixed-age group about the brewery building and process, including its steam engine. A really wonderful bit of local industry since 1899 - producing great beer (we filled the car boot!) and offering really wonderful sustenance and first rate hospitality.

Reviewed By CatherineTh0mps0n - Leamington Spa, United Kingdom

Well COVID was in danger of Kiboshing my daughter Alices birthday. However our day spent with Mikey and Mark our chefs at a one day cookery class at the Manoir pulled triumph out of the jaws of defeat. We were treated like royalty and were privileged to receive such great tuition and culinary encouragement. Absolutely brilliant experience and I am one extremely grateful parent.

Loose Cannon Brewery

Reviewed By Schirr007 - Worcester, United Kingdom

Visited with friends the first Saturday we were allowed after easing of lockdown. Online booking was really efficient, staff friendly and helpful. We were sitting outside and felt very safe (just need to remember a coat next time!!!) Beer was great and non beer drinkers enjoyed the local cider! Thank you to all the team for adapting to the rules.

Our philosophy at Bothy Vineyard is to produce the highest quality wines from grapes cultivated in as environmentally-friendly a way as possible.

The local micro-climate, warm sandy soils, long ripening season and mature vines produce wines of consistent depth and quality which have won many awards. Visit us to experience the freshness and character of English wine at its best.

If you are visiting Oxfordshire, Bothy vineyard is a fantastic place to stop by. The owners are very passionate about wine and very welcoming. I enjoyed all stories and facts they shared with us and feel inspired to learn more about wine produced in England. It's a small, family run vineyard which makes this place even more special and their wine is delicious.

What a lovely surprise to find we have such an amazing distillery in Oxford. Was bought this as my Mother’s Day present from my youngest son, hubby came to. We got the bus from central oxford to within a 3 minute walk. Easy, no hassle and at the top of South Park looking across beautiful views of Oxford. We could have been collected by minibus free of charge if we wanted. Greeted by Edward and Ruth who made us one of our first of many G&T’s all made at TOAD Great tour, nice to see how it all started and where it’s going, funny, witty and the 2 hours passed by too quickly Taken back into Oxford by minibus with lots of goodies we tasted throughout the tour. Not just gin but vodka and whiskey ???? Would definitely go back again ????
