"I didn’t know English wine could be so good!"
I attended the vineyard tour and tasting evening with 2 friends on a whim after looking for a different kind of Sunday activity locally.
Gorgeous views, and gorgeous wine – I didn’t know English wine could be so good! The tour felt really personal as the owners took us around and you can tell it really is a labour of love, with their passion showing in all they do. It was such a nice evening, I can’t recommend it enough.
I’d love to come back to the cafe or to buy a bottle and soak up the views of the vineyards before the summer is fully out!

"I'm not sure you could get something like this anywhere else locally."
Highly Recommend!!
3 of us went this weekend on one of the wine tours and had an amazing time. We were treated fantastically and had a 1 on 1 tour with the owners. Their passion and enthusiasm were clear to see which was reflected in the taste of the wine!
We were able to learn lots of new information about how they make their wine whilst admiring the amazing views from the Surrey Hills. I’m not sure you could get something like this anywhere else locally.
Thank you so much for having us!

"What a super event at the Tanhurst Estate Vineyard last night."
What a super event at the Tanhurst Estate Vineyard last night – Midsummer Music and Wine – a thoroughly lovely couple of hours spent sitting in the setting evening sun, sipping the delicious Tanhurst cuvee, hoovering up some delicious canape bites, enjoying the view and a good old catch up with a friend, whilst being entertained by a very accomplished professional harpist. A fantastic location, wonderful biscuity, curranty bubbles, and Colin, Sarah and cat Milo were great, relaxed hosts.
Will definitely be looking out for their other upcoming events at this smashing little, fully independent vineyard just a stones throw from Leith Hill and Forest Green. We’ll be back for a proper vineyard tour and wine tasting too.

"Tanhurst is rapidly becoming one of my favourite places to visit."
Tanhurst is rapidly becoming one of my favourite places to visit for a coffee or a glass of wine.
In its idilic location, Colin and Sarah have done such a wonderful job of making the farm a really special place. The beautifully converted barn with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating has lovely views over the vineyard and countryside. I recently did the vineyard tour and tasting which was great value for money and a superb experience led by Colin. You get generous tastings of all their wines alongside a delicious cheese selection.
I’m excited to try their red which is due for release at the end of the summer.

"What a lovely find this place was on our club group ride."
What a lovely find this place was on our club group ride. The gravel drive up can be a little dicey on road bikes, but fine for mountain bikes I would say. Once in the grounds you are greeted by lovely 360 views of the surrey hills.
The coffee shop has lovely rustic decor and a good selection of coffee and cake and very friendly staff. We will definitely visit again.
There was only one thing that we were halfway up the fearsome Tanhurst Lane with the nasty half to go with a stomach full of coffee and cake!

"Our vineyard tour was excellent. Informative, enjoyable and relaxed."
A Gem in the Surrey hills. We had a vineyard tour with Colin late afternoon on a sunny Friday. It was excellent. Informative, enjoyable and relaxed.
The vineyards, winery and in fact the whole site are beautifully kept. Colin has a real passion for the land and the nature it supports. All of the wines that we tasted were very good and the accompanying small plates were delicious.
We had the added benefit of staying overnight on site in our small camper van. A level pitch right next to a vineyard. We will be sure to return, highly recommend.

"Though as a local, should we keep it a secret so it doesn't get too busy:)?"
My son booked us a wine tasting treat for 4 of us. Such a quiet and beautiful spot.
Colin and Sarah were so welcoming and down to earth. Very enjoyable and the most ‘no-nonsense’ wine tour I’ve had. Highly recommended.
Though as a local, should we keep it a secret so it doesn’t get too busy:)?

"Plenty of parking space and lovely local walks. What a great place!"
So pleased to find this on our walk. Café in a beautifully converted barn selling locally roasted coffee and of course their wines.
Really friendly owners and you can even have a free tasting of some of the wines!
Plenty of parking space and lovely local walks. What a great place!

"Ideal location to rest after a bike ride around the Leith Hill area."
Excellent addition to the Surrey Hills, superb coffee, cakes, soup and a stunning range of locally produced wines. A real gem. The owner Colin is extremely welcoming to cyclists (bike racks, and e-biking charging sockets). Stunning views on south facing slopes. Ideal location to rest after a bike ride around the Leith Hill area. This place is very special. The listed barn is over 300 years old, with very high ceilings and exposed oak beams. Highly recommend.
