Why haven't you been yet? This place is incredible. Firstly, the wine is on-point. I literally couldn't pick a favourite from the 3 types of Sussex sparkling they do (I think it would really depend what you were eating) I am actually very champagne fussy but these were up there with the best. Secondly, the Tour and Tasting was excellent, a special mention to Amy who spoke eloquently and passionately about what they do here. The tour isn't too long but very informative. The tasting is not rushed (and you get to drink 3 glasses, not just taste!), which makes it excellent value for money. I also had the luxury of staying the night in one of their lodges thanks to my husband gifting me for our 10 year wedding anniversary (tin; but would also work for a 5 year anniversary - wood). The lodge was beautiful, and attention to detail made it extra special. Despite there being 8 lodges, it feels very private. The breakfast that was sent in the morning, a discreet little knock telling you it's arrived, was fantastic and so very much more than just a few pastries. Lastly, the tapas from the Vinyard Kitchen were exceptional. Honestly, well done to the family for what they have created, a very intimate and unique experience. I will be recommending to anyone who will listen.

An incredible stay - we booked it very last minute to celebrate our anniversary. The lodge was stunning, completely private, with the most amazing views over the vineyard. We had the best evening enjoying tapas and wine on the terrace, going for a sunset bike ride, and relaxing on our private sundeck. In the morning, a fresh and warm breakfast delivery that was FULL of goodies and set us up for the day. All of the staff we’re lovely and I can’t recommend a stay here enough!

The lodges are perfection. The layout, fittings and guest information are second to none. Following a relaxing sauna we enjoyed our delicious tapas while surveying the vines from the patio. We both slept so well and the breakfast basket was delivered as promised with lots of homemade treats. Can't wait to return!

Had a one-night stay with my husband in one of Tinwood's lodges. The rooms were very well presented with a high level of detail. The bed was incredibly comfortable and we enjoyed a wonderful jacuzzi bath.  …

Loved staying here overnight, very relaxing overlooking the vines. The lodge was amazing, very spacious and comfortable with a great bathroom. Stunning views across the vines and countryside. Staff were very friendly and helpful.We did the wine tasting and lunch which was very enjoyable. Great idea to combine with the tapas style lunch whilst tasing the sparkling wines. The food was delicious.Finally, the bikes were a nice touch to explore the vineyard or visit the nearby pub for an evening meal.

We've enjoyed our stay at Tinwood's. A very good tasting, lunch. We've stayed for one night in a lodge and have a look at the sky at night, have a great view on the vineyard in the morning .... it was heavenly. The lodge itself had all you want , even a choice of different wines.

We stayed at Tinwood for one night in one of their new cabins and had an afternoon tour. The cabins were fantastic and perfect for an evening overlooking the vineyard. The kitchen is open until 5:30 for you to grab a picnic of food to take back to the rooms. There is two saunas and free bike hire on site for you to see the full site, though beware of the bees as you cycle around! We will definitely stay again!

We came here as part of my sister’s hen do and had a wonderful time! Thank you to the team for the communication beforehand to make sure the day ran really smoothly, I had to make changes along the way and their emails were always timely and helpful. The wine tasting was really fun and it was the perfect setting for the hen! She loved the experience and we couldn’t have asked for a prettier backdrop! The wine and non-alcoholic options were delicious! Love that Tinwood are so flexible and happy for guests to enjoy the day, you never feel like an inconvenience, they all want you to have fun and enjoy their venue for as long as possible. Thank you Tinwood for a wonderful afternoon!
