Excellent cheese spoilt by the rudest and most unpleasant staff I’ve ever come across. No prices on anything. We would have gone back but would rather have spent our money somewhere where they knew how to treat their customers.

If you are buying cheese this is THE place to go. Any true cheese-appreciator (or dare I say, aficionado) will love this shop! They have something for everyone, are incredibly knowledgeable and stock an amazing range of local cheeses. Come Christmas it is advisable to order ahead (if you can, though half the fun is looking in the counter and trying everything) as the queue is out of the door and it isn't unusual to have to wait 20 minutes or so to be served. This is far from a problem when you realise the service you get; select your cheese, try it if you aren't sure and then wait while it is sliced, wrapped and labelled by hand. They also sell all cheese-related accompaniments for people who actually put cheese on things rather than eating it in lumps.
