About this space
Our Gin School offers a truly distinctive setting for groups of up to 16 guests. Tucked away from the main bar and overlooking our beautiful working distillery, this one-of-a-kind space is perfect for private gatherings, team sessions, or intimate celebrations.
Equipped with AV facilities, it's an excellent choice for creative meetings, workshops, or presentations with a twist. The space blends character and functionality, making it both inspiring and practical.
Want to elevate the experience? You can also take part in one of our immersive distillery experiences, right here on-site - a memorable way to engage your group and explore the craft behind our spirits.
