The Tinwood Estate’s vineyards are situated in the heart of West Sussex at the foot of the South Downs National Park. Producing some of Sussex’s very best sparkling wines, a vineyard tour and tasting is the perfect way to indulge in something extra special. If that’s not enough, you can also stay in one of the estate’s three lodges that look over the vines. With jacuzzi baths, saunas and a fully stocked wine fridge, we think you’ll want to return time and time again.
