We are so excited to welcome you to the DropWorks Distillery!
The DropWorks Distillery is located at the Stone Shed at Welbeck in Nottinghamshire. Full address is: DropWorks Distillery, Stone Shed, Welbeck, Worksop, Nottinghamshire, S80 3LX.
We find that downloading the What3words app and using the reference Streak.when.champions has been hugely successful where phone signal is limiting as you venture on to site – so if you can download in advance it is highly recommended!
We have a map that you can use to help locate us on arrival at Welbeck, and you will need to look out for signs for Stone Shed (not DropWorks Distillery) due to the exterior signage available at present.
It has been recommended by the Welbeck team that bringing guests in and out of Lady Margaret Drive, as shown by the blue dot on the map here, is the most direct route for our visitors (instead of the main entrance) this should limit the potential for getting lost when navigating the area.
There is a security gate near the junction with the A60 which is monitored 24/7 an intercom to the security office in case of an emergency or issue.
Streak.when.champions is the what3words app location which has been great to support navigating the site, as the signal in the area is quite poor.
Welbeck is a private and busy rural estate, including residential properties so please take care and be respectful when within the grounds and do not wander off/ take any photographs outside of the Distillery without permission. If you do require any specific photographs from outside of the Distillery, please let us know and we can put you in touch with the Marketing team at Welbeck directly.
We apologise, but telephone signal isn’t the best so if needed please email hello@dropworks.co.uk for any questions in the mean time.
We would love you to share your pictures of the your DropWorks Distillery experience with us after your trip. So please tag us on social and leave us a review on Google or Trip Advisor.
Why not make a day of it? There are so many wonderful activities available on the site where we are based. Visit www.welbeck.co.uk to find out more.
