“We spent an amazing morning visiting the stunning orchard with amazing views. We learnt a lot and enjoyed tasting this gorgeous organic cider at Dorset Nectar. I was not a cider drinker until today - these ciders taste pure, clean, just delicious.

I recommend a visit to anyone, not just cider fans. Our host was great- friendly, knowledgeable, making connections to us visitors' lives and clearly loving her vocation.”   

Suzanne - Oxford

‘What a hidden gem!!  The tour of the cider farm was absolutely fantastic and exceeded our expectations!

Laura

“What a marvellous surprise! The storytelling, and beauty was delightful, the cider tasting was truly lovely.

To see a family operation be so beautiful and successful warms my heart.”

Did we mention our ciders are Organic.
