THE COUNTRY CHEESES’ VERY SPECIAL SELECTION

maturing and selling artisan cheese
The Home of 'Real' Cheese
Currently with shops in Tavistock and Topsham and Totnes.
One of the main reasons we started working with cheesemakers and selling their cheese was because we could not easily get hold of this wonderful product, despite living in the heart of Devon. We have worked for over 20 years at making cheese more accessible for anybody wanting more than just something to chew on, something in fact that will excite the palate and the mind, our sort of cheese is cheese with soul. Now we feel the time is right to spread our net even wider and send 'real' cheese to those of you who do not have much access to it. We hope you enjoy your shopping experience, and please be aware that there is always a team of happy, helpful 'Cheese operatives' in the shops to answer questions or take your order should you not wish to order over the internet.
So please take your time browsing around the site, there are so many different possibilities to be explored: you can buy wonderful Westcountry cheeses online, find out all about truly stunning Wedding Cheese Cakes which will make your day that much more special, and catch up on all the latest news regarding Country Cheeses...including the latest on the:
Country Cheeses
Tavistock 'Real' Cheese Fair
Our fantastic bunch of British cheese loving customers (that sounds like the customers are all British, we also have non Brits who have woken up to the smell of Brit cheese too!) ask when our fab cheese show is so they can organise the annual visit to these parts, or make sure no other arrangements clash with it. Also makes me feel warmer, thinking of summer...... All that soft white bloomy rinded cheese running and lusious, Wedges of wonderful cheddar and pickled onions with big hunks of crusty bread, time for lunch I think...So click here if those lovely thoughts of cheese have tickled your taste buds and you would like to know more about Tavistock's 'Real' Cheese Fair!
