Accolades were awarded to 72 English attractions covering all aspects of what makes an outstanding visitor experience. Last year, the centre received a Hidden Gem award for its brewery tour experience.

“We are delighted that our Visitor Centre has again been recognised as one of the country’s top visitor attraction experiences,” said Shepherd Neame’s head of customer relations, Giles Hilton.

“Thousands of people visit to enjoy our brewery tours each year, learning more about Britain’s oldest brewer.

“A small but dedicated team work hard throughout the year to ensure the experience is as welcoming as possible, and this award not only recognises this but also the part played by everyone behind the scenes in the brewery.”
