Colwith Farm Distillery

Though technically not a wine-related experience, Colwith Farm Distillery is a fantastic day out for booze-lovers. This authentic distillery delicately produces award-winning vodkas and gins for you to enjoy, and is based on five generations of farming history!

It's Cornwall’s first plough-to-bottle distillery, meaning that the whole process - from potato to spirit - is done right here on this fantastic farm. 

A huge amount of effort goes into producing these special spirits, from fermenting to bottling, and all this heart and hard work have combined to create delicious, top-quality products.

Discover the distillery on a guided tour, go to gin school and try your hand at distilling your very own bespoke gin, or do both with a gin masterclass. You can even shake your way into the cocktail masterclass - how refreshing! 

Colwith is based in Lanlivery, and you can stay nearby at one of our Lostwithiel cottages.
