Cornish Yarg is a semi hard cheese wrapped in nettle leaves to add flavour and help it mature. Our Wild Garlic Yarg follows the same recipe but is slightly firmer in texture with a gentle garlicky taste. Cornish Kern, a World Cheese awards Supreme Champion, is a longer maturing hard farmhouse cheese made to a Gouda recipe with Alpine cultures. Our cheeses are available from delis, cheesemongers, selected supermarkets and farm shops. We also sell directly from our dairy.

Some pairings just make sense, and this one starts with geography.

We've paired our Stithians with a Cornish Pink Sparkling Cider, produced by Trevibban Mill, letting two local makers shine together. The cider's bright acidity and fine bubbles cut through the cheese's buttery richness, while soft cherry and dried fruit notes echo its depth.

We thought this was a nice way to end our Cheese of the Month - a true taste of Cornwall in one bite and sip.

One of our favourite ways to enjoy Monmouth coffee from our shop.

Take the coffee you love, pour it over some Brickell's ice cream, and watch it melt into something wonderful.

Simple, a little indulgent, and easy to make at home. Two of our favourites, together at last.

Brickell's ice cream has become a firm favourite in our shop.

Made in Somerset, they make their ice cream base using a traditional French custard recipe with only four ingredients: milk, cream, egg yolk and (British) sugar. No stabilisers or emulsifiers.

The milk comes from our fellow cheesemakers, Westcombe Dairy - you'll find their cheese in our shop too.

The Ricotta in their Ricotta Stracciatella also comes from the family farm.

It's the kind of thing we like: good ingredients, no shortcuts, done properly.

Straight from our own cows to our shop. Pasteurised, non-homogenised, with refillable bottles. Real milk, real simple.

Expect a cream layer on top.

Some of our proudest work happens outside the dairy, in how we work with the people around us.

First cut of the day for Cornish Yarg.

For anyone who's curious, we set the curd using rennet. This first cut starts releasing the curds from the whey.

Our shop sits alongside the dairy in Ponsanooth. Cheese first, but not only cheese.

Alongside our own, we stock a selection of guest British cheeses. Fresh bread is delivered daily from Stones Bakery, and there's a refillable milk station using our own pasteurised, unhomogenised milk.

We also have your staples: butter, eggs, yoghurt, coffee and ice cream.

To drink: wine, port, cider and beer. And the things that go alongside a cheeseboard - crackers, jams, relishes and chutneys.

If you're ever passing, pop in to say hello.
