The Vale Resort in Hensol has recently opened a craft distillery. Visitors can distil, bottle and take home their very own bespoke bottle of gin in the basement of the 400-year-old Hensol Castle. Located in the grounds of the four-star Vale Resort, the distillery features a bonded warehouse, gin school and visitor experience.

The marketing manager, Stephanie Metson, said: “Every maid-of-honour and best man want the hen and stag they’re organising to be unique and memorable. Where else can brides and grooms indulge in Wales’ largest spa, get involved in adrenaline-fuelled activities and enjoy a gin they’ve concocted themselves? 

"Their bespoke gin creations can also be re-ordered at any time, whether as a gift for the bride and groom or the bridal party. If the happy couple love their creation, they can even order the recipe as wedding favours for their guests on the big day.”
