Biddenden, Kent’s oldest commercial vineyard, is owned and managed independently by the Barnes family. Visitors are welcome to stroll round the 24-acre vineyard, which is open daily, to see how the 11 different grape varieties are grown on gentle south-facing slopes.
Tastings of Biddenden’s award-winning, estate grown still and sparkling wines, Kentish ciders and local fruit juices are available in the vineyard shop, which also stocks a selection of local and regional produce. Private guided tours can be pre-booked.
