The Ramsbury Experience Tour

2021 summer is going to be the year for staycations and exploring the UK! If you’re looking for a unique experience in one of the most picturesque parts of the country, then you’ve found yourself on the right page! We are delighted to be launching the ‘Ramsbury Experience’ which is complete with a lunch and a stay at our award-winning inn, The Bell at Ramsbury, an off-road tour of the Ramsbury estate which promises some of the most spectacular views across the North Wessex Downs and a tour of our brewery and distillery. For further information click   here. To book, please contact brewery@ramsbury.com  or call 01672 541407

What to Expect

You will begin the day with a warm welcome at our 300-year old coaching inn,  The Bell at Ramsbury, where you will be picked up by our tour guide and off-road bus for a ‘countryside safari’ tour of the Ramsbury estate. Throughout the tour you will get to experience each part of the production process and passion that goes into producing our award-winning spirits, craft beers and rapeseed oil, as well the abundance of wildlife and woodland that makes the estate its home.  You will then arrive at the brewery and distillery for your tour and tastings, where you will experience the delicious end result of both the farm, brewery and distillery tour.

What better way to end your visit than relaxing in the company of our Bell team, savouring the memories of the day and enjoying a 2 course lunch. The set menu has been devised by our Head Chef and uses fresh, local produce inspired by the seasons and landscape surrounding us. We’d also suggest an after lunch pint (or G&T!), and perhaps a stroll around the pretty village of Ramsbury to make the day complete.

The Brewery & Distillery

Back in 2004, we diversified into brewing. With over two decades of experience creating craft beers, we take inspiration from the Wiltshire landscape surrounding us, working towards being the most sustainable brewery and distillery that we can be. Here’s  how. 

Education

We believe that educating future generations about the countryside and environment around them is hugely important. This led to the launch of our education programmes which features a number of projects available for primary and secondary school, and colleges to get involved in. Find out more.
