Thanks to Karen and Simon for a lovely afternoon at Little Waddon vineyard. Unfortunately the poor weather meant we weren’t able to spend as much time amongst the vines as you normally would but the tasting room has been beautifully converted and the log burner was very welcome. 4 of us enjoyed the humous, bread and olive platter which was delicious, served with 2 wines from the vineyard - a sparkling white and a sparkling rose, both very drinkable .

We visited on a beautiful August Saturday afternoon and attended a wine tasting event. The owners are very enthusiastic about their vineyard. The vineyard is small but loved and cared. The owners chat about the challenges that they have faced but have overcome, with the wonderful wines that they produce. All the wine we tasted was full of flavour with many layers of flavours hitting our taste buds. The terrace with the tables overlooking the vineyard is delightful and you could very easily imagine that you're sat in a French or Italian vineyard. We would definitely return if we come to this area again.

Myself and 2 friends went for a vineyard tour/cheese and wine tasting afternoon here back in June. It’s was absolutely stunning. The hospitality was faultless, the wine selection was beautiful (brought 2 bottles to take home with me) and the large platter of cheese & other nibbles wrapped it up nicely. Beautiful vineyard. 100% coming back next year. Tom

I was gifted the "Fizz on the Terrace" tour and tasting for my birthday and it turned out to be even better than I could have imagined. A very informative tour of the beautifully scenic vineyard followed by a gorgeous cream tea on the terrace. Even a little rain couldn't dampen the experience. Plenty of little extra touches from the owners turned a wonderful afternoon into an amazing one. Would thoroughly recommend to everyone.
