Looking to make the most of your newfound freedom by taking a break and enjoying some delicious booze? Then we’ve got the perfect competition for you. A chance to win a VIP trip to The Lakes Distillery!
Last Friday was St George’s Day which is a perfect excuse to marvel at the increasingly varied and wonderful world of English whisky. And with restrictions being gradually lifted but international travel still tricky, a fantastic holiday idea would be a tour of some of the country’s finest distilleries.
Few can boast quite as many things to do as The Lakes Distillery, which not only has a range of spirits (not just whisky) to taste but also benefits from being located within the Lakes District. Which is a pretty amazing place, if you’re not familiar with it. There are even alpacas roaming the distillery grounds. What’s not to like?
If you’re thinking this is sounding like a dream trip, then wait till you see what we’re offering here today in our latest competition. It’s a VIP trip to The Lakes Distillery with all the trimmings. Here’s what you can win in full:

Fancy a chance to visit one of the country’s most beautiful distilleries?
The Prize
The winner of this one will be truly spoiled. Picture a Roman noble lounging on a bed while being fed grapes. That’s how spoiled we’re talking. But this is so much better because grapes are being swapped for delicious English whisky.
In full, your prize includes:
- A VIP trip to the Lakes Distillery for one person (and their lucky +1), including UK travel and transport for the duration of the trip.
- One-night accommodation for two people including breakfast
- Tour of the Lakes distillery including access to the whisky maker’s blending studio
- Lunch for two in the on-site bistro which includes 3-course lunch and 1 drink; and
- A whisky and chocolate tasting experience – with the Lakes finest single malt whiskies, paired with handmade luxury chocolates.

Just pick up a bottle of the new Lakes Whiskymaker’s Reserve No.4 and you’re in it to win it!
