WELCOME TO HENCOTE
Set high above Shrewsbury and the Shropshire countryside, the Hencote estate is a reminder of what England, at its best, has to offer. An insistence on authenticity and a keen eye for detail has driven the creation of this unique English experience that comprises wine tasting, vineyard tours, a hilltop restaurant and luxury accommodation.
Stroll through rows and rows of maturing grape vines, learn about the marriage of modern thinking and traditional techniques that encapsulates Hencote’s singular approach to winemaking, and enjoy bold and exciting dishes from around the world – all within the grounds of the private Hencote estate.
ACCOMMODATION
Luxury onsite accommodation is available in the shape of the Grange, an elegantly restored Georgian farmhouse, and the glamping village, a series of lavishly furnished luxury lodges. Each residence is outfitted with its own hot tub - the perfect vantage point from which to take in the view of the Shrewsbury skyline and the vibrant vineyard that sits below.

THE VINEYARD
At Hencote, our values start with our vineyard. Our team carefully nurtures each individual vine using traditional practices. We welcome you to walk through the vines and witness first-hand how we produce quality English wine in Shropshire. Each visit to the vineyard is unique. As the seasons change, observe the stages of growth and learn about the work that goes into creating sparkling rosés, rich reds and crisp whites.

“We had a great day. Could not fault anything.”
We had a great day. Could not fault anything. Lovely wines, delicious food and brilliant hosts. We are lucky to have this facility on our doorstep and can't wait until the restaurant opens. Highly recommended.

“I have just returned home after a wonderful stay at Hencote.”
From the moment I reached Hencote with its beautiful surroundings I began to relax. Hencote itself is pure luxury. The sumptuous bed, free standing bath and gorgeous fluffy towels were my personal favourites!

“Thank you so much for the amazing hospitality.”
The care and attention showed by the fabulous team. Luxurious yet homely feel to the accommodation. Thank you so much for the amazing hospitality. I could stay here for a month/year! I don’t think that I have ever felt so relaxed!
