Fabulous selection of cheese delivered for Christmas. Some old favourites like Baron Bigod and Comte, and some that were new to us; a lovely smoked hard cheese (that the kids loved), Dorstone goats milk cheese and a few others we'd not had before. All delicious, highly recommended!

My wife and I had the unfortunate circumstance of deigning to cross the threshold of this incredibly important woman's shop just this afternoon. As we entered it was as if we carried a great smell with us, or a dog had scurried in instead and put its filthy dirt trodden paw upon the counter, chancing for a scrap. Despite our smiles and our courteous entrance, no impression could be made upon the steely gaze that was laid upon us, bar disgust, and every further effort only served to distance us greater from an understanding. Realising our folly, and dispensing with small talk we proceeded directly to the cheeses, but only little information was forthcoming, as though we were spies searching undercover for vital information and having been caught doing so. We were lucky to be allowed to sample but one cheese without question, and we quickly pocketed this at the allotted price tag for fear of being shown the underside of her boot, and quickly the paving stones outside. Cautiously I ventured towards a second cheese, again making the mistake of a small amount of conversation around the subject, and was quickly batted down, like a step child out of sight of its true parent. The owner was incredulous, in a 'More... MORE??? (Oliver Twist)' way that left figurative raps across my knuckles, but through my sheer perseverance I benefited our company a single sliver of new yellow and blue soft cheese. Biting into it was such sweet and unexpected heaven, even under such scrutiny, and perhaps this is why the owner is able to exercise such fear in her visitors, as they cautiously, timidly, press for enlightenment on the great feast of cheeses on display. I'll say this for the place, we had two lovely cheeses and I'm eating one now. I just wish she could have been a little nicer. We would have bought an awful lot more.
Rude staff and overpriced, would not recommend!
Great place for that special cheese
