Vineyard tours and tastings

Visit a vineyard all year round

Sussex wine isn’t just winning fans in the UK, it’s rapidly gaining a worldwide reputation. The county has pretty much been the go-to for British sparking wine for a while, but the region’s still whites and reds are now more than holding their own on the global stage. Many vineyards across the county offer tours and tastings and, with lovely built-in walks and many offering good food into the bargain, it’s a great way to spend a day away from the hurly-burly.

Most Sussex vineyards offer tours and tastings year-round, though some do close to visitors in the colder winter months. Find a vineyard here and then check individual websites for dates and times of tours and events.

Chalkland butterflies

Many unusual butterflies haunt the sheep-grazed chalkland of the South Downs. One, the stunning Adonis Blue, is bright azure in the male and chestnut brown in the female. They love steep, south-facing downland slopes.
