📍Puttenham

Greyfriars Vineyard has established itself as one of the top producers of sparkling wine in the UK. It is open all year round, with their beautiful vineyard, cellar door shop and tasting room welcoming visitors just outside Guildford and Farnham. Try their award-winning range of wines, including their IWC Trophy-winning Sparkling Rosé Reserve, as well as fascinating tours (usually in and around the vineyard in the summer months, and in their state-of-the-art winery in winter), supper clubs and pop-up events.

📍Chilworth


Chilworth Manor Vineyard
is a family-owned vineyard, established in 2013. They currently produce sparkling wine and a still rosé. The vineyard occupies a gently sloping 10-acre site in the heart of the Surrey Hills National Landscape, just below the iconic St Martha’s Church and adjacent to Chilworth Manor, a house and estate rooted in an extraordinary 1,000 year history. In the spring of 2024, they opened their Watch House tasting barn, which enjoys views out into the vineyard and up towards the North Downs.

📍Albury

Albury Organic Vineyard was planted by Nick Wenman in 2009. Nick had dreamed of owning a vineyard for 40 years. Key to Albury’s success is their commitment to sustainable winemaking with talented winemakers and vineyard managers. Originally known for their Silent Pool Rosé, Albury Estate sparkling wines now win international awards. This family-run vineyard offers a relaxed, informal experience - children, dogs and muddy boots welcome! Enjoy cheese and charcuterie on their patio with a glass of your favourite wine.

📍East Clandon

High Clandon Estate Vineyard’s cuvées are elegant, aged-matured and vintage only, English sparkling wines, which they call the Quintessence of England - their name for an English ‘champagne’. They are created in the traditional bottle-fermented method from the classic trio of champagne grapes, and aged for a minimum of five years on the lees. This multi-gold awarded boutique vineyard is home to the beautiful Glass Barn and an extensive wildflower meadow with spectacular views across the Surrey Hills towards London. Their highly-anticipated Art and Sculpture in the Vineyard events raise money for local charities every year. High Clandon’s celebrated Tour, Talk, Tasting is pre-bookable on Open Days - but they can also host bespoke groups. Thrillingly, you may even learn to sabrage!

📍Dorking

The award-winning Denbies Wine Estate in Dorking was founded by Sir Adrian White in 1984 and has since continued to be run by the White family. It is one of the largest family-owned wine producers in the UK, making wine that competes on an international level, winning multiple gold awards for both sparkling and still wines. Visitors can enjoy a host of wine-related events and activities, as well as seven miles of public footpath trailing through the vineyard, almost every day of the year. Their 17 bedroom Vineyard Hotel opened in 2019 and is the perfect base for enjoying the tranquility of the Surrey Hills, while the Wine Library is the perfect place for a private party or tasting. They also have a selection of restaurants to choose from, including the Gallery Restaurant and its panoramic views.

📍Kingswood

The youngest of the Vineyards of the Surrey Hills, Soloms Court is a small family vineyard, focused exclusively on the eco-conscious production of high-quality Pinot Noir vintages. Nestled within an ancient woodland ecosystem at 170m elevation, the vineyard offers views across the skyline of Central London. Peter and Elise are a husband-and-wife team who are working closely with winemakers, Litmus Wines, towards the release of their first vintage in 2026.
PLEASE NOTE: Soloms Court is set to open for private tours in 2025. Watch this space.

📍Leith Hill

An enchanting corner of the Surrey Hills National Landscape, Tanhurst Estate is only minutes away from National Trust’s beautiful Rhododendron Wood and Leith Hill Place – the childhood home of composer Ralph Vaughan Williams. Having planted their first vines in 2020, this family-owned vineyard has been slowly growing and expanding behind closed doors and now opens its Vineyard Café to the public on Saturdays, 10am to 4pm. As an added bonus for those looking to explore the Surrey Hills and enjoy our region's award-winning wines, Tanhurst Estate is also home to four beautiful holiday cottages. Watch this space for tours and tastings - as well as other ticketed experiences - which will be announced in the coming months.
