Award-winning Ludlow Distillery is delighted to be among the few winners of a Tripadvisor Traveller’s Choice Award 2024.
In June 2023, the team behind the acclaimed Ludlow Gin proudly opened the doors to their brand-new distillery and visitor centre at Ludlow Farmshop.
Just one year later, the distillery has earned recognition from Tripadvisor as one of the top 10 per cent of global tourist attractions, receiving a Travellers’ Choice Award for 2024, one of only four in Ludlow.

The company remains the only distillery in the region that opens daily to the public, since becoming a must-visit destination for spirit enthusiasts. Their distillery tours and gin school have earned them the only five-star rating on Tripadvisor in Ludlow, with customers praising their engaging, hands-on experiences and friendly, welcoming team.
Visitors can enjoy a relaxing drink in the stylish bar area, browse a wide selection of spirits in the distillery shop, and even sample some. For those looking to delve deeper into the fascinating world of spirits, visitors can take a behind-the-scenes distillery tour, where they’ll discover the artistry behind the production process.
The gin school experience offers visitors the opportunity to craft their very own bottle of gin using a mini copper still. Ludlow Distillery provides an unforgettable visit for all who walk through its doors and invites visitors to see why it’s one of Ludlow’s top five tourist attractions for themselves.

Founder Shaun Ward is passionate about the impact the distillery has on Ludlow and its visitors and is “absolutely thrilled” to have won the award.
“What a fantastic way to celebrate our first anniversary at Ludlow Farm Shop," he said.
“Since moving to the shop last summer, we’ve hosted over two thousand guests on our distillery tours and gin school experiences,” Mr Ward said. “If you’ve not had the chance to visit us yet, we can’t wait to welcome you – come join us and discover the spirit of Ludlow!”
