Wine-Tasting Holidays with UK’s Only Vineyard Tour Operator

Visit Eastbourne.com has teamed up with the UK’s only vineyard tour operator, English Vine Tours to offer visitors to the resort the chance to enjoy a wine-tasting holiday in and around Sussex.

From full day tours taking in some of the region’s most famous vineyards including Carr Taylor, Plumpton College, Seddlescombe Village and Bookers, to half day tours incorporating a morning’s wine-tasting followed by a tutorial with a professional artist or an afternoon at the races, visitors can choose from a range of excursions to boost their break in Eastbourne.

Eastbourne Borough Council Cabinet Member for Tourism, Cllr Susan Morris said “The vineyard tours are fantastic and really offer visitors the chance to do something a little different while on a day out or holiday in Eastbourne. We are very pleased to be working with English Vine Tours to extend an already endless list of ideas for things to do in the town, and with several bookings coming in already, I think the vineyard tours will prove very popular all year round.”

English Vine Tours are working with VisitEastbourne.com to offer two dates a month for vineyard tours and experiences, kicking off mid September with a Wine and Horse Racing Experience.

Visitors can book now for a Red Hot Poker Day, combining a vineyard tour and tasting with a trip to the races. Visitors can enjoy an afternoon flutter with a unique racing experience.

Visitors booking the tour will be treated to an exclusive afternoon at the races, with a turf tour, chance to view the paddock rooms, free drink, afternoon tea and gallery viewing.

The only company in the UK to offer escorted vineyard tours, visitors travelling to Eastbourne can book now to enjoy a unique experience and explore the region’s beautiful vineyards and taste some of the south east’s top award-winning vines.
