Detailed itinerary

Immerse yourself in the world of natural wine and cider-making. Just 10 minutes from The Clifton Suspension Bridge you will feel a million miles away from the city, as you find yourself in a secluded rural valley in Failand, the home of Wild West Wine and Cider. Here you can find organically grown apples and grapes and experience the end to end process for making wine and cider in the traditional way, as it's been made for thousands of years, without the addition of sulphites or other additives.
On arrival you will be welcomed by your host. Walk along a rustic path to the vineyard and learn about the trials and tribulations of establishing an organic vineyard. Wander back through our beautiful organic orchard before sampling our wine and cider paired with local cheese.
