Took a wine tasting tour here. Beautiful vineyard and winery with knowledgeable, engaging winemakers. America is charismatic, welcoming and so passionate! She made my mum and I feel very welcome. Her husband, Nick, led the wine tasting and kept us all laughing while he taught us all about the gorgeous wines they produce. Can’t recommend enough.

Stunning stay at Oastbrook Estate!

We had a wonderful time staying in the Oastbrook hobbit house with bbq and hot tub.
Frequent visits from the adorable Vinyard dog Lora went towards our stunning stay.
The family run estate is glorious and the whole family are beautifully welcoming.
We did the tour and tasting which was highly informative and delicious. We loved it all.
Thank you Oastbrook!

We stayed here for two nights and had a wonderful time! America and Nick were so insightful and welcoming. We had such genuine interactions with the owners learning about their vineyard. additionally the wines were really special and tasty we especially enjoyed the pinot blanc and curvee. I would definitely recommend to visit for a tour and tasting and to stay in the glamping tents which were fully equipped with everything you needed to have a great getaway experience. Will definitely return!

Brilliant day at Oastbrook today, Nick was a fantastic host and the wines we tried are a reflection of his and his wife America's passion. Anna and I will be back very soon!

Visited here with my sisters for the wine tour and tasting as well as spending the night in one of their bell tents which was perfect. Facilities were great and exceptionally clean.

A special thank you to America who gave us the tour and really added value to the whole experience with her knowledge, passion and friendliness - she is brilliant.

Both Nick and America are amazing and their wine is fantastic.

I will certainly be recommending this and hopefully visiting again.

Impressive estate and vineyards. America and Nick were so pleasant and know hospitality. We came down from London for the winery tour and tasting. You must either cycle from the train or plan to hire a taxi in advance if you don’t drive.

The format of the vineyard needs to include more walking- if not through the vineyards than at least a perimeter tour, or at least allow people to drink some sparkling wine if we must stand in one place standing still for an hour.

Great stories overall though, and the tasting was really informative. Loved all of the wine- they are masters of their craft.

My boyfriend and I stayed for 1 night on the 31st August in the Glamping tents to celebrate my birthday which included the wine tour.

Pros: The surroundings of the vineyard were beautiful and the Glamping tents were of a good standard with excellent bathroom facilities. I was impressed by how professional Nick was throughout our stay - very clear and knowledge and loved the morning breakfast drop off!

Cons - the check in to our Glamping tents was not the smoothest. We had finished the wine tour and asked America if we were able to check in but we felt it came across as an inconvenient ask at the time and was told to find Gaby whom we hadn’t met before. We went away wandered around and returned and waited for a while as no one was able to assist.
We were then eventually shown to our tent where we were staying but unfortunately there were very little niceties and just a list of what we weren’t allowed to do which wasn’t the warmest welcome to our stay.

It also became apparent that Charcoal was not included for the BBQ so a word of note to others staying. This would have been nice to know about prior to staying and would have also been a nice throw in considering the price of the tents.

With regards to the wine tour - the wine tasting with Nick was excellent and wonderful wines though during the wine tour itself through the vineyard there was a lot of repetition and swearing which came as a bit of a surprise.

My boyfriend also mentioned that I was gluten and dairy free of which they said they can only do if available. Given my intolerance this is not a negotiable. In the end I was kindly provided with a gluten and dairy free breakfast which was great but clearer communication up front would have been appreciated and knowing that I could be accommodated for.

All in all a nice experience, for me a few areas around communication can be worked on in my opinion especially when celebrating my birthday these aspects make a difference.
