Explore Long Ashton on foot

Visit our new Walks page where you can download a series of Long Ashton walking trail guides that start from The Little Tipple.

Dunleavy English wines now available.

The Dunleavy Vineyard is located in the beautiful Yeo Valley in Somerset just outside Bristol at Wrington. They produce multi-award winning Rosé and sparkling wines from Regent and Seyval Blanc grape varieties.

Fancy a Little Tipple? Then you’re in for a big surprise.

If the Little Tipple’s Gaudi-esque sign above the entrance doesn’t give you a clue about the individuality of this family-run village shop in Long Ashton, near Bristol, then the weird and wonderfully organic timber counter and fixtures that greet you once inside certainly will.

It’s like a grotto, with every nook and cranny filled with interesting wines from small family vineyards from around the world and full-bodied craft beers from local breweries. And that’s before you realise that, squeezed between more familiar bottles, there are also some rather remarkable and tempting single malt whiskies, vintage ports, liqueurs, sherries and ciders each individually selected by its owners.

Mr Tipple burned motorbike rubber for the last time on Monday. And yes, that is the vicar leading the funeral cortege on his Vespa!

David’s family are very grateful for all the support and sympathy they have received from friends, customers and all the medical professionals involved in his care. Donations in David’s memory may be made to �davidgover.muchloved.com

DAVID GOVER
18 August 1932–14 April 2023
On Friday 14 April I lost my dad when he peacefully passed away at home. A kind, generous and good natured man who always had a smile and positive word to share with anyone passing by. He will be much missed by his two children, three grandchildren, three great-granddaughters and his many friends.
Although he was cared for by an excellent team from Network Healthcare and very experienced nurses from Sirona he had an underlying infection that he couldn’t shake off. He also had prostate cancer and the frailty of old age against him.
His funeral will be at All Saints Church, Long Ashton on Monday 15 May at 11am where he will be reunited with his wife Yvonne.

23 August 1931–23 December 2022
On Friday 23 December I lost my mum when she peacefully passed away at home. She was the kindest and most beautiful person I have ever known. Born the sixth of eleven children in 1931, during an economic depression and shortly before the outbreak of World War II, she certainly grew up in tough times. Following the big blitz of Bristol by the Germans she was evacuated, from Whitehouse Street in Bedminster, to Maerdy in South Wales and spent eighteen months away from her family. Soon after she returned home to Bristol her father and two of her brothers were tragically killed in a collision with an army lorry driven by an inexperienced teenager.
Then she met my dad, married him in 1955 and loved him every day for the rest of her life. In 1958 they moved to their dream new home in Long Ashton and lived happily in the village. They each delivered fresh milk daily to residents for nearly forty years in their beloved Land Rovers. In 1976 they bought what is now the Little Tipple and she cheerfully served customers up until two weeks ago. She was proud to say she was still on the payroll at 91! She loved children and was a devoted mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. But she also knew how to mother as well as be a mother and mothered plenty of others throughout her life. Thank you mum for a wonderful life. Norman
The Little Tipple will re-open at 4pm on Thursday 29 December.
