Here’s a fun comparison: you don’t have to fly to Tuscany for a vineyard view. Surrey and Kent have proper English vineyards that produce award-winning sparkling wine. Denbies Wine Estate, for example, is massive and only 40 minutes from Waterloo.
You can walk the vines, do a tasting, and feel super sophisticated. It’s a classy escape that feels like a mini-holiday in France, but with better train connections. Cheers to that.
So, next Saturday morning when you’re scrolling aimlessly, remember this. You aren’t stuck. Your perfect getaway is just one hour and a train ticket away. Which one will you try first?
