Great time. Go. - Great time. Beautiful venue. Our tour guide Zoe did a great job. Go. (Here I am filling in space. Now filling in more space because TripAdvisor makes me type at least 100 characters. Which is stupid. )

Tour and tasting. - Visited for the distillery and brewery tour with my son-in-law. We were both very impressed with your guide who definitely knew her stuff. The art work is amazing and the bar is a great place to sample your beers which are all excellent by the way. can't wait to try your malt when it's ready.

Do the tour! - The tour was amazing and the staff (Emma especially) were incredibly friendly! It is different from other distillery tours and very modern feeling. The space is very cool and worth the visit. I've been to several breweries and their selection of beer is delicious. I recommend the forest dweller. Worth the visit. Right next to the bridge and shops!

Tour - Interesting new distillery. The hotel bar and brewery are beautiful. The tour itself suffers from the fact that there's not much to see. The spirit that is made there is sent elsewhere for warehousing, the maltings is done elsewhere so you won't see as much of the process. More significantly they've not yet made any whisky. At the end there was a miniscule tasting of the new make and a blend (that's got none of the distillery product in). Neither were great, but there was so little of them it wasn't too much of a chore. The graphics are very nice but the tour was a let down, for me. I'd visit the bar and not bother with the tour.
