A fabulous experience from beginning to end - Our visit to Cotswolds Distillery was part of my dad's birthday celebrations and we couldn't have had a better time. Lovely relaxed lunch in the Stillhouse Cafe made for a great start with decor being inviting and in keeping with the surroundings. Food was also very good value and we didn't feel rushed by staff at all. We then started our tour and tasting experience. Our guide was Darcy who did a fantastic job of telling us about the history, the production methods, and how the distillery tries to utilise every element in other ways so nothing is wasted. Darcy's knowledge and engaging delivery made for an informative and very entertaining hour or so, followed by lengthy tasting session in what felt like an exclusive lounge. For those who, like myself, were driving, they made sure that we didn't miss out and got to take home a wonderful selection of gins and whiskys to taste. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone with any level of interest in spirits and how they are made.

Excellent Distillery Tour & Tasting Experience. - This was the best distillery/brewery tour I have been on and I’ve been on a few. Great value for money we were taken around by Kevin who was highly engaging, knowledgeable and informative. Really impressed that drivers were catered for with the take away samples. All the staff across the shop, restaurant and guides were friendly and welcoming. Thoroughly recommend this tour.

Great experience and Cotswolds Gem - On arriving, the distillery had excellent visitor car parking with EV charging facilities. We were met by the very friendly Cotswolds team in reception cafe/restaurant and shop building and at the start of of the tour we were given a very informative briefing on the distillery history, sourcing of ingredients and machinery etc. as we proceeded around the different distillery buildings the explanation of each process was made easy to understand for a novice and appreciative of what’s involved. They openly encouraged photography without flash to remember the day. On completion of the tour we then went in the tasting bar where after an explanation of each whisky or gin visitors were allowed to try measures of their choice as well as measures selected by the tour team. Being the designated driver I was given a very nice Cotswolds distillery drivers bag with samples of my choice to take away which was a great momento. So to sum up the tour was 5 star and well worth tour fee. The staff were friendly, very knowledgeable and made the tour memorable. Thank you for a great experience.

Fabulous tour. We will be back - We really enjoyed the tour and the tasting. James and Chloe were both very informative. They made the tour really fun and interesting. I didn’t want it to end. I could have stayed in the Whisky storage barn all day. The smell is amazing and seeing all the barrels was fantastic. The tasting was great too, I’ve never liked Whisky but James explained how to taste it properly and I now have a whisky I can enjoy. The Gin as always was delicious. Great cafe too, good choices and reasonable prices.

Highly recommended, great experience - Amazing distillery. Sara gave us the most amazing tour of the distillery. A tasting after was astounding to get to know all the products of this beautiful place

Great place to visit - Fantastic place to visit. Very interesting. Drinks tasted amazing and what I liked was you can take home samples if you’re the driver. Fully recommend this distillery. Our tour guide was very informative and friendly. Great cafe too on site.

Enjoyable tour and tasting - Enjoyed a distillery tour and tasting. Informative tour led by Sarah who was friendly, fun and knowledgeable. The tasting session was relaxed with a good free-choice of drinks to suit your tastes. Option of low alcohol gin and takeaway tasters for drivers was great too. We also enjoyed delicious cake in the on site cafe, a lovely cosy space but with lots of outdoor seating too for warmer weather. Menu for brunch or lunch looked lovely too. Came away with some bottles of our favourite Gins from the shop.
