Who we are

About the farm

We farm the gentle south-facing slopes of a sheltered valley just outside the Wealden village of Biddenden in Kent; founded in 1969 as Kent's original vineyard, our estate is owned by the Barnes family and run today by the second and third generations. We grow 12 grape varieties by hand on 23 acres (about 9.3 ha) and produce around 80,000 bottles a year of white, rosé, red and sparkling wines, as well as cider and pressed juices. Our vineyard shop sells our own wines, ciders and juices alongside local produce; from May to September we offer guided and self-guided vineyard tours, in autumn and winter behind-the-scenes winery tours, and we deliver nationwide from our online shop.

Who are you?

As a producer, use the email address on your farm profile.

How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.

Is this your farm?

If this is your farm, you can take over the profile: click the button and enter your e-mail address. If it matches the address stored for the farm or the website's domain, you receive an edit link at once; otherwise we verify you with an SMS code sent to the farm's known phone number, or with a short manual check. The link is valid for 30 days; your changes appear immediately marked "under review" and become final after approval.
