Soak up those sunset views of the vines on a Three Choirs vineyard break for two! Spend a night at one of England's leading vineyards in the Cotswolds. superb views in a peaceful setting combine with a wine tasting & tour for a fabulous break away for two on a room with breakfast basis. Three Choirs is one of the largest & oldest vineyards in the country. Already really popular with visitors the winery team was always being asked about accommodation at Three Choirs. Time & time again visitors were saying that they'd love to stay
- so that's what the owners have done! Described as a 'restaurant with rooms' rather than a hotel the Three Choirs vineyard welcomes guests to stay in the heart of this unique winery setting. There a just eight rooms & each one offers a balcony with gorgeous views out over the rows & rows of vines. Very comfortably furnished with all the modern amenities you could wish for it's a great place to spend the night. & of course you're right on site ready for discovering the world of wine. Once you've checked in & made yourself at home for your midweek break it's time to get exploring Three Choirs. We can highly recommend an afternoon stroll in & around the vines along the vineyard trail with nature & wildlife at every turn. Wander through glorious natural habitats where flora & fauna thrive. See if you can spot the nesting boxes for the hedgehogs or the teeny ones for the ladybirds. Continue your very pleasant walk past the ponds & the stream & you might well encounter foxes owls rabbits & badgers too. Back at the winery it's the perfect time to embark on your wine tasting at the ' Cellar Door'. Here you'll learn all about the wine that's made at Three Choirs
- & it really is very good. We think it's the perfect prelude to a dinner in the Brasserie which is open in the evening should you wish to book a table for the evening of your stay. All done at a very leisurely pace we think this Three Choirs vineyard break is just great. The idea of relaxing at a vineyard drinking wine & learning about how it's made without having to think about heading off back home that same day is a real bonus. It means you make the most of your accommodation in the most wonderful setting accompanied by lots of delicious wine!
