Ideal for groups looking to relax and refuel. All beer tastings are strictly 18+ and contain gluten. The venue is fully wheelchair accessible.
Great family day out. Really enjoyed it. Great experience, guides were very helpful and professional but made it fun as well. Our tour went from Boley bay as there was an eastern wind but next time we will go to see the opposite side of the peninsula.
