GETTING HERE

Parking: There is plenty of parking available at the vineyard.

Which route: We advise using the Seven Mile Lane > Mereworth Road > Forge Lane > Stan Lane route, as Swanton Road is very narrow.

Please go past the spotty barn, through the white gate (which will be open during opening hours), and follow signs to the Cellar Door.

There is an entrance to Yotes Court Manor House on Mereworth Road, please ignore this and follow the signed directions to the vineyard entrance on Stan Lane.
