Reviews
“On a wet day in January what do you do in the northern Lakes? Well a visit to the Lakes Distillery is a great idea. We have visited various distilleries around the world but this tour was one of the best explained ever. We came out feeling that not only did we now know how to make a whiskey but also that the folk here are passionate about their product and their wish to share that passion with their guests” 16th January, Tripadvisor
“As an almost non-drinker, I wasn’t that keen to visit the distillery but as everyone else in our retired group was going I went along. Well, I was amazed! It is a fascinating place and brilliantly put together as a vibrant business and a great tourist attraction. Our guide, Ruth, was inspirational, so full of enthusiasm and also knowledgeable. The introductory film was excellent though I am glad Ruth warned us about the swooping shots from the Helicopter! We then were taken through the distillery and the process was clearly explained and full of interesting. The ‘icing on the cake’ was the sampling session at the end where we were invited to sample whisky, gin and vodka! I tried it all and could almost be converted to a gin drinker! An amazing place!!” 2nd October 2017, Tripadvisor

Excellent idea for a gift
“We travelled from Manchester specifically for this tour and felt the effort was well worth it, we both had a great time, should have left the car at the hotel first though so we could both have fully appreciated the sampling session! GREAT QUALITY AND VALUE - don’t miss out” 19th January 2018, Tripadvisor
