Best Child & Family Friendly Vineyards and Wineries in Surrey

Updated 17 June 2026

Surrey's biggest vineyard is also its most family-friendly — Denbies has a train tour through the vines, nature trails, a garden centre and café, and enough to keep children occupied for a full afternoon. Albury is the more intimate option, with dedicated family events through the season. Godstone, High Clandon and Tanhurst round out the list for a more relaxed, low-key visit.

Denbies is the easiest choice for a family day out: the Vineyard Train Tour tends to go down well with younger children, and there are nature trails, pram-friendly paths, baby-changing facilities, a café and a garden centre on the estate. Albury runs dedicated family events through the season and welcomes children on the self-guided vineyard tour, with baby food permitted on site. High Clandon opens for events and open days rather than daily visits, but children get in free, and the wildflower meadows, wildlife pond and art exhibitions give families plenty to explore. Godstone has a relaxed, unfussy atmosphere — children are welcome on the vineyard trail and the outdoor terrace, and the format is low-key enough that it never feels like hard work. Tanhurst's café barn is the right kind of stop for families: outdoor seating, no pressure, and an easy base for a wander around the Surrey Hills.

Tanhurst Vineyard

(Shortlisted) (Visited)

Tanhurst's café barn opened in 2025 and welcomes families in the outdoor seating area. It is a relaxed, unhurried stop in the Surrey Hills rather than a structured family activity - but sometimes that is exactly what you need.

Denbies Wine Estate

Denbies is one of the most family-friendly vineyards in England. The Vineyard Train Tour is a reliable hit with younger children, and the estate has nature trails, pram-friendly paths, baby-changing facilities, a café and a garden centre - enough to fill a full afternoon without anyone running out of things to do.

Godstone Vineyard

(Shortlisted) (Visited)

Godstone has a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere - children are welcome on the vineyard trail and the outdoor terrace, where you can order wine alongside cheese and charcuterie. Low-key and unpretentious, which is not always easy to find at a vineyard.
