Next I will talk about the history of Perfumery from the Ancient Egyptians to the perfume houses of Paris. I will teach you how we describe scent and how it works.

Immerse yourself in our artisan distillery deep in the captivating Welsh Wye Valley, a stone's throw from Tintern and Trellech. Take in views of rolling fields and ancient woodlands, whilst sampling several varieties of Silver Circle gin. Together we'll tour the distillery, explaining how we create our different blends and demonstrating how each ingredient delicately influences fragrance and taste. Touch, taste and smell locally foraged botanicals, and mull over your own favourite gin flavours. We'll talk you through a variety of natural flavourings and guide you in your selection of ingredients to create your personal recipe. Our 5 wooden distillery stations fit two people, each with its own miniature copper still. As your gin drips gently through the still, there's time to relax and share a cup of something with your fellow alchemists before blending, measuring and bottling your individually crafted gin. The resulting bottle of gin will be yours to name, take home and generally show off about. Sharing is, of course, up to you. A discount is applicable when 2 or more people are sharing a still, bringing home one bottle of gin between them. This applies automatically to all bookings of more than one person. If you do not wish to share a still, please make separate bookings! Other things to note The experience is for two people sharing a still. Participants can come alo

Arrive at Cotshill Farm near Gloucester, and meet your host. Come outside to the stables and meet some of the 11 horses and ponies that we have on site. Enjoy the tranquil atmosphere and perhaps spot a few birds on our pond or feeding on Walmore Common which surrounds the farm ( a biological SSI). Then take a scenic trip through the Severn valley over the railway crossing and into the quiet Gloucester lanes. Keep an eye out for the local wildlife busy about their work unintimidated by the natural sound of the horses hooves and the silence of our carriages. There are plenty of photo opportunities as we pass through the landscape and the chance to get up close and personal with our our gentle horses and ponies. Experience the gentle nature of our horses and the joy of slower paced travel. Upon your return enjoy a delicious cream tea with homemade jam, a generous dollop of clotted cream all on fresh homemade scones!

Join me in exploring the Ozleworth and Lasborough valleys, two of the most quaint and secluded vales in the Cotswolds. Offering picturesque rolling hills, enchanting valleys and captivating woodland, this is one of the most charming and peaceful walks in the Cotswolds. We’ll start the walk at the chocolate-box hamlet of Ozleworth near Wotton-under-Edge and we’ll first explore the quaint Ozleworth Park. Boasting picturesque cottages, a Norman church, a stately mansion and tree-lined avenues, Ozleworth Park will enchant you at every twist and turn. We’ll then follow a bubbling stream across the secluded Bagpath valley. Next, we’ll walk through the enchanting Lasborough Park. Nested in a charming valley, Lasborough Park features a medieval manor house, an imposing farm and stunning parkland, and offers idyllic and picture-perfect scenery. We’ll finally walk through the peaceful and wooded Ozleworth Bottom which is filled with lush trees, earthy colours, gleaming lakes and bubbling waters. This circular walk is 6 miles long, takes 3 to 3 ½ hours, and includes steep ascents and muddy, overgrown paths. Throughout this walk, I’ll endeavour to share my passion and knowledge of the Cotswolds, and especially, the Ozleworth and Lasborough valleys. Dogs on a lead are welcome. Not suitable for pushchairs or wheelchairs. Additional dates available (message me).
