Swanaford Vineyard

About

This South West vineyard between Exeter and Dartmoor was started by Ben and Caroline Goulden in 2012 after they swapped London life for vines, and it's become a proper family affair with dogs, kids, and wedding guests all welcome. You can tour the place, stay overnight, help with the harvest, or just pop in for a browse of their online shop. It's racking up serious ratings at 4.9/5, so clearly they're doing something right.
