A Worthwhile Wine Tasting Trip - We were excited to visit the beautiful Swanaford Vineyard and it didn't disappoint! Caroline & Ben were on hand to do the tour as there was a mix up with the times, but we had an excellent visit with our friends and it was interesting to learn about the process and hard work that goes into making the lovely wine we tasted. We wish them all the best for the future!

Great tour and experience - Great setting, Molly was a very thoughtful, knowledgeable and passionate guide. Tour around the 10 acres of different vines, explained the different taste and types, then back to the barn for 4 tastings. Great value for money.

Fantastic Vineyard Experience - Tim was a fantastically knowledgeable and passionate guide. Had excellent knowledge but also didn’t push too much technical jargon onto our group, which was fantastic for half the group who were only interested in the wine tasting aspect!! The vineyard is in beautiful surroundings and is a very well worth visit when in/around Exeter. The wines (2 still white, 2 sparkling white and 1 sparkling rose) are fantastic too!

Mollie, our guide, was knowledgeable and able to engage well with the group, making the whole experience fun, the time flew by. Tasting samples were generous! Good value for money.
