Surrounded by the stunning Clwydian range countryside and enjoying a micro-climate, Vale Vineyard is just a 10-minute drive from the cottages. While you may not automatically think of Wales being famous for its wine, we have tried for ourselves, and can highly recommend sampling the award-winning wines and local cheeses! This is a gorgeous and relaxing way to spend the afternoon.  The vineyard tour is extremely informative and provides you with an introduction to the grape varieties, production process and the opportunity to wandered amongst the vines. The wine and cheese tasting takes places within a gorgeous brick and timber Tythe Barn.
