Tastings take place in the Manor House. The Manor Tasting changes its wines every week, and the house also serves breakfast and lunch, with picnics in the garden. The sources disagree on opening hours: the insideguide portal says daily 10:00 to 17:00 except Tuesdays, with bookings required from eight people, but gives no date; other listings say Wednesday to Sunday or Wednesday to Monday. Check with the estate before you drive out.
