Experience highlights
Taste, make and discover
- From tasting to making. Explore differences between apple juices, or take an interest in a cider-factory visit and a workshop using apple-derived materials. One fruit offers several ways into its story.
- Meet the grower and the day’s harvest. Walk through the orchard, hear from the farmer and choose apples that are ready to eat. Conversation with the grower is part of the pleasure of harvesting.
A possible way to spend the day
An orchard visit with the grower
Rather than visiting everything in one day, start with the things you would most like to enjoy. Choose between, or combine, harvesting in the orchard and discovering the tastes of processed apples.
- Discuss your interests, such as tasting, a visit or a making activity.
- At the orchard, walk among the trees with the farmer and discover the apples of that season.
- Tasting harvested apples or juice can also be considered, depending on what is available.
Discuss your preferences
Tell us how you would like to spend your time.
A conversation with the grower, a comparison of apple juices or harvesting apples yourself: please share with your butler what you would like to enjoy during a day devoted to apples. We will ask about the dates of your stay and your preferences, and consider together whether to focus on harvesting or to enjoy visits and tastings, at a pace that suits you. We will check which varieties are in season and how the harvest is progressing before advising on places to visit and combinations of experiences.
