Ten Acres Vineyard

Ten Acres is a small vineyard, campsite and glamping site near Winkleigh in Devon, making its own wine since 2008.

Toby and Esther McKinnel moved to Ten Acres in 2007, after five years living on a hillside vineyard in southern Hungary. The following year they planted the first of what are now more than 2,500 vines, on the south-facing slope of Winkleigh's former wartime airfield. Pressing, fermenting and bottling all happen on site, in a small wine-making cellar.
