Description

Long established, award-winning vineyard in the heart of 1066 Country.

SITUATION
Yew Tree Farm is set amid the Sussex Weald, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty around half a mile from the village of Westfield, which offers a good range of local amenities, primary school and Post Office. The much larger coastal town of Hastings is 4 miles and the historic town of Battle 3 1/2 miles offering a variety of retail and convenience stores plus a range of independent shops, cafes and both primary and secondary schools. The main A21 is within 1 1/2 miles of the property and offers direct transport links to Hastings in the south and to the M25 30 miles to the north.

DESCRIPTION
Established in 1971, and under the same careful management ever since, the vines are spread over very gently sloping south facing land, and are a mixture of Reichensteiner, Gutenborner, Schonburger, Ortega, Dornfelder and Bacchus and the classic champagne varieties, Pinot noir, Pinot meunier and Chardonnay.
In 1983 the propety produced the first commercially available traditional method sparking wine made in England, taking advantage of the favourable cliamte, relatively low 40 metres height above sea level and clay loam soils. Shelter is offered by Hastings Ridge to the south. The estate has enjoyed considerable success gaining over 150 awards in international competitions.
The principle dwelling is a converted three-bedroom coach house, alongside which is a two-bedroom annex together with shop and cafe.
The winery is contained within the original stables and barns which have been converted and are largely constructed of brick together with more modern, portal framed buildings, with five separate areas having bonded status.
