“Fab day out”
I got this experience as a birthday present from my son, having not heard of the Gin Bothy before. We were made to feel welcome as soon as we arrived with coffee & biscuits in the sunny courtyard, then a wander round the two rooms full of information and even got a free horseshoe. For the tasting the gin was beautifully laid out, we watched a video which well explained - and enjoyed a delicious cheeseboard. Followed by a visit to their well-stocked shop, this was a great day out!
