Vineyard Tours & Tastings
Nestled in the heart of the Kent countryside, Green Farm is perfectly placed among some of England’s most celebrated and award-winning vineyards. Guests staying with us have a wonderful opportunity to explore the region’s thriving wine scene, with a variety of vineyard tours and tasting experiences available just a short distance away.
​
For a relaxed visit, you can enjoy a glass of locally produced wine or arrange a guided tour at nearby vineyards such as Gusbourne, Westwell, Chapel Down, and Ham Street - all within an easy 15-minute drive from the Farm.
