Llanerch Vineyard, Vale of Glamorgan
Llanerch Vineyard, which was bought by Ryan Davies in 2010, dates back to 1986 when the first vines were planted. Located to the north west of Cardiff, just outside Hensol, it claims to be the first vineyard to have opened a dedicated hotel in the UK.
The 26-bed facility opened last year after the vineyard secured a £2 million loan, aiming to simulate successful oenotourism models found in New Zealand and Australia.
The vineyard also hosts tours, tastings, weddings and corporate packages. It operates a restaurant and bistro and produces a total of 10,000 bottles of wine a year under the brand name Cariad Wines.
