Step into the world of Britain's most iconic gin with our exclusive Bombay Sapphire Distillery experience. Set in the historic Laverstoke Mill in the heart of Hampshire countryside, this stunning distillery offers an unforgettable journey through botanical discovery, innovative architecture, and the art of exceptional gin-making – just 12 miles from Audleys Wood Hotel.
Your discovery experience begins in the Turbine Bar, where you'll craft your own complimentary gin and tonic using self-serve dispensers – the perfect introduction to the world of Bombay Sapphire. Continue to the Cinema Room for an immersive journey into the heritage and craftsmanship behind every bottle, before your expert host guides you through the distillery itself.
Explore the breathtaking Glasshouses – architectural masterpieces – where you'll discover the ten exotic botanicals that give Bombay Sapphire its distinctive character. From juniper berries to grains of paradise, each botanical tells its own story of global exploration and expert curation.
In the Botanical Dry Room, engage your senses in a unique experience designed to uncover your personal flavour preferences, before learning about the rare vapour infusion distillation process that makes Bombay Sapphire gin so exquisitely smooth and complex.
After your fascinating exploration of gin-making artistry, return to the charm of Audleys Wood Hotel. Check into your room and freshen up before enjoying dinner in our restaurant, where seasonal Hampshire ingredients are prepared with the same attention to craft and excellence you've witnessed at the distillery. Your evening can be complemented with a perfectly crafted cocktail in our bar – perhaps featuring your newfound appreciation for botanical gin.
The following morning, savour a freshly prepared breakfast before enjoying our grounds or exploring more of Hampshire's rich heritage – from Jane Austen's House to the historic towns of the surrounding countryside.
