Woodchester Valley Vineyard Shortlist*
Woodchester, Gloucestershire
Good Hotel Guide Review
Amid the green fields of the Stroud valleys, Fiona Shiner’s family-owned vineyard and winery shelter a modern B&B. Spacious duplex suites in a sympathetically restored barn each have a mini-kitchenette and a log burner-warmed sitting area; private terraces and huge windows take in long-reaching views across the valley and vine-covered hills. Set off on the walking or cycling routes that wind through this part of the south Cotswolds; return for a vineyard tour and a tasting of the award-winning wines. Breakfast hampers (charged extra) include freshly baked bread, croissants, preserves, yogurt, fresh fruit and juice. Stop by the Cellar Door shop to stock up on bottles from the vineyard before heading home.
