Tom has recently joined Winton as front of house manager
Tom Wellwood, who lives locally in North Berwick, joined hospitality venue Winton House in April this year as Front of House manager.
Tom is a self-confessed foodie and wine buff. As a qualified sommelier who was described in the Herald as “Scotland’s top young wine expert” in 2009, he will ensure the cellars at Winton receive the same care and attention that guests expect.
He knows a thing or two about whisky as well and is only too happy to share his knowledge and advice on an after dinner digestive.
Working closely with Scottish wine merchant Inverarity Vaults, recently voted UK Restaurant Wine Supplier of the Year, wines at Winton have been carefully selected to complement the wonderful dishes created in the Winton House’s kitchens.

by Sir Francis Ogilvy
There has always been a Christmas tradition at Winton, although, by design, it tends to be a bit different each year. Whether we go back to my grand parents’ period between the Wars or my parents era after the 1960s, the essence has not changed; there have been gatherings involving people from the Estate, often with a focus on the children.
We always had a large, 10 foot tree with a crib underneath displaying the nativity scene, as we still have today; this was decorated by the children staying at the time. It often had real candles so they needed a little help! If candles were lit, a watchman would stand by with a damp sponge on the end of a long pole (at that time our fire alarm was a large hand bell!).
