This isn’t just any gin distillery, however. Shed One offers a range of gin experiences, including the popular Make Your Own Gin workshop, botanical-inspired Afternoon G&Tea, and informative Distillery Tours and Gin Tastings. We’ve also made sure our facilities are accessible to all visitors. We have wheelchair access throughout and hands-on tours for visually-impaired guests. Groups are kept small so every guest can relax and feel free to ask questions and be involved. After visits from a Mystery Shopper, Shed One won Cumbria Tourism’s Experience of the Year. It’s due to this award that we were put forward to VisitEngland Awards for Excellence.
