Horsham & the Arun Valley

Nyetimber

West Chiltington · West Sussex

✓ Estate-verified · August 2026

England’s most famous sparkling wine house opens to the public only on a handful of Open Days each year — and the 2026 tours have already sold out.

The visit

Nyetimber is not a drop-in vineyard. There is no cellar door, no tasting room and no self-guided trail. Public access is limited to a small number of Open Day Tours, and if you want to go, the planning starts a year ahead.

Confirmed by the estate · August 2026

2026 Open Day Tours are sold out

Open Day Tours run at £50 per person, and the 2026 dates are now fully sold out. The estate occasionally receives cancellations and keeps a waiting list — email their customer service team to be added.

Planning for next year

2027 dates announced in Q1

The 2027 Open Day Tours will be announced in the first quarter of 2027, with the exact date still to be confirmed. The estate recommends signing up to their newsletter, which is where upcoming experiences and events are announced first.

If you want to go
