Venn Valley Vineyard in North Devon

Visited on the August bank holiday . Wasn't sure what to expect as I have never been on a wine tour in the UK . It was really interesting and informative and the Vineyard is obviously a passion project . After spending some time learning about the vines we were treated to tasting of 3 lovely wines and a delicious champagne. Overall nearly 2 hours of really good fun . Suitable for my dog too. Highly recommend

Wow what a great venue and hosts, perfect for our family get together of 18 adults and 4 children. Alina put on a fantastic high tea with home made sandwiches, pastries, cakes and cream teas with coffee and tea. The bar was also open where we tasted and bought some of their delicious home made wine. Alina also provided a colouring table for the kids. We would love to return next year and try their wine tasting tour. Thank you Alina.

We celebrated my mums 80th Birthday with afternoon tea, what a lovely couple who run the place. Tasty sandwiches, loads of cakes and the all important scone, Devon clotted cream and jam

A fantastic independent vineyard in Devon, the tour was very informative and the wine tasting was delicious. We got 3 bottles of wine all for a very good price when you consider this isn’t mass produced wine. Will be back next time we are in the area.

Interesting to learn about the start up of this local vineyard its successes and problems. I learnt a lot at the wne tasting at the end and did buy some of the wine.

Had a lovely vineyard tour and tasting The owners are very knowledgeable and you can feel their passion for wine making They were also great hosts We were able to purchase some wine from them too

Today we visited Venn Valley Vineyard for lunch and a wine tasting tour. The food was wonderful and generously portioned, the service was excellent and the tasting tour terrific! We were greeted in the tasting room and provided water carafes to hydrate us before venturing out into the very hot sun. Tony then took us around the vines to start the tour and explained a little about the history of the farm, and the ypes of vines they grow, with information about how they do things and why. All very informative. Then as we returned to the tasting room Alina took over and proudly offered us a white and rose wine to taste, explaining exactly how to get the flavours from the wines. This was their own wine and the first times they have been able to serve it. They also served 2 red which whilst they weren't their own wines, were made from their winemaking company and were an indication of how they wish to develop their collection. They also offer corporate and wedding events and have some very ambitious plans for their future. They provided a great afternoon and experience and I would highly recommend this as a family/group/business activity to do. The restaurant and cafe are open all year, 5 days a week. Wishing them all the best on this venture, a fabulous thing to have here in North Devon!

On our most recent visit to Swimbridge to meet with Bill The Potter, he recommended that we have lunch at the Venn Valley Winery. Great smiling welcome and good food hosted by joint owner Alina. Updates on the progress of the vines in this new(ish) vineyard with delightful enthusiasm. Time to chat with friends in a relaxed, no pressure, atmosphere. Food arrived promptly and all freshly prepared and cooked. Look forward to their growth and interesting to know them at this stage of their development.
