A warm welcome awaits you at Westons Cider Mill
Nestled amongst acres of apple and perry pear orchards, our 400 year old farmhouse, The Bounds, is the centre piece to a truly unique day out. Open 7 days a week, visitors of all ages are invited to discover the secrets of traditional cider making by joining one of our daily guided mill tours. CONTACT US ON 01531 660108.
Hear how cider is produced from the planting of the orchards to the moment it is poured. During your visit, stroll through our award-winning Henry Weston Courtyard Garden and into a converted seventeenth century cowshed to see our magnificent cider bottle collections, which is proudly one of the largest in the world.
Adults are invited to sample our wide selection of ciders and perries on offer in our onsite cider shop.
For those looking for a delicious meal made from fresh Herefordshire produce, a piece of homemade cake or simply a cup of tea, you will be spoilt for choice at The Scrumpy House Restaurant and Bottle Museum Tea Rooms.
Whether it's a refreshing pint of Stowford Press in the summer sunshine, or a warming mug of mulled cider by our open fire, a visit to Westons Cider Mill is perfect all year round.
Cider Mill Tours
Experience the unique history of the Westons family, learn how Henry Weston founded the business in 1880 and how this independent and family owned cider and perry maker has developed into the one of the country's finest producers of quality ciders and perries. Step back in time as you experience the tranquil and fragrant vat shed, housing our historic oak vats, some nearly 200 years old and all still used. A tour of Westons Cider Mill offers a truly unique back-stage pass to the traditional and very English art of cider making.
