Wensleydale Creamery in Richmondshire

Stopped off for a short while - nice shop & cafe. Lovely trying the cheeses!

Popped into the shop after a walk in the dales. Plenty of samples to nibble on before you buy. I felt the prices of the cheese was really good value for money. Look forward to visiting again.

Brilliant cheese tasting but if you want to see cheese being made make sure you go there first to book a time to save waiting around

Great fun. Fab cheese tasting and wonderful afternoon tea

Wow it amazing places i like it went u go big room just taste different flavours of cheese

we went for the cheesy afternoon tea and it did NOT disappoint! staff were lovely, cheerful and very accommodating to our needs as we do not drink alcohol and wanted meat free options. mac and cheese was to die for. we were surprisingly full. not a fan of the cheesecake but everything was really nice, definitely would go again. there’s a gift shop too!

Had an enjoyable time finding out how cheese is made and then tasting different cheeses. Had a very nice meal in the restaurant. Both had the steak and ale pie. Good food, great views and good service.

Lovely restaurant, had the afternoon tea which was delicious. Gift shop is great with so much to buy and cheese shop has plenty of lovely cheese to buy and also taste.

Did the cheese experience, where we: got a live demonstration on how the cheese is made, learnt about the creamery history, admired the Wallace and Gromit section and tasted some very nice cheeses! The gift shop had a lot of selection from homeware, gifts and treats! We also had food in the cafe, I got a rarebit- decent portions and I treated myself to a ice cream after. Fun few hours!

Fascinating demonstration and history of Wensleydale cheese-making by Martin. Then loads of scrumptious cheeses for tasting. Excellent shop for cheeses, beers, crackers, chutneys etc. All in a gorgeous setting in the sunny (at least for 1 day 😃) Yorkshire Dales.

A great experience for lovers of cheese and Wallace and grommet! A great factory tour and amazing gift shop split in to a cheese section and one with all the yorkshire and Wallace and grommet merchandise you couk ask for. The selection of cheeses are amazing I can recommend the extra mature cheder, the traditional wensleydale and the caramelised onion mature cheddar, all are sublime. Well worth a couple of hours of anyones day, but bring your wallet cheese isn't as cheap as you think ( when you buy a boat load of it!) All in all a top notch experience. Keap up the good work.

Great visit - good value cheese experience with an interesting talk and lots of cheese to taste - well worth it

Worth calling in to, souvenir and cheese. Café ice cream and clean toilets for customers

We watched the presentation on how the cheese was made, which was quite interesting if a little overpriced. That said, all day long, it was sold out. The cheese was fantastic and we bought several different types. We used the coffee shop whilst we waited for the presentation and was less than impressed. Too many things on their menu were sold out. I would return for their cheese and possibly try the afternoon tea in the restaurant.

Visited just an had the Wensleydale Cheese Experience. It was fun to have a better understanding on thr heritage and cheese making process. The gentleman doing the introduction was comical and engaging! Unfortunately, there was no one working on Easter Sunday (or any Sunday). So we could not see the operation of the whole chese making process. Tried the different cheese flavours and the Cranberry, Apricot as well as Pineapple Cheese hit it right for me! Can be a little busy but thats a good thing! A good 1-1.5hours well spent! Highly encouraged!

Lovely little visit, many cheese samples

Beautiful place with Great authentic place for cheese lovers, Cafe is so reasonable and used very good quality fresh ingredients. We tried Sandwish (Wensleydale Cheese+Baby lettuce+Carrot and chutney with Home made soup of the day. Yummy and we enjoyed it

Booked into the restraunt a few days before- more relaxing than the cafe option but best to book it. We didn't book a look around the creamery and we should have because it was full when we could go. Had afternoon tea here with my friend and it was delicious. The staff were very attentive and friendly, as were the shop staff. Didn't have to wait long for anything. Well stocked shop with lots of variety of gifts and treats 👍

We had a great time at the creamery teaching our 5 year old son how cheese is made. He absolutely loved the Wallace and Gromit bit. Would recommend

This place is very easy to find, it is very well sign posted. On visiting the Dairy there is lots of parking. Visiting the Gift shop, there is hand sanitisers and a one way system which seamed to be working well, we visited the 1897 coffee shop and it is well organised, staff where very polite and friendly, we then visited the gift shop and again the staff are really friendly and the lady at the till had a long conversation with us. Visiting the Museum and factory could be better sign posted as it was a bit of pot luck to find the entrance! As a working factory we didn’t just want to wander around! We paid and there is so much information to read, all very good and interesting, including the Wallace and Grommet experience! And a chance for some photos! We then visited the factory and did see some of the cheese making but a family decided to take up the whole of the viewing area and where not moving! We moved on to watch an amazing cheese making demonstration which is well worth the money! Again a very friendly staff member and happy to answer any questions, very knowledgeable!! In all it’s a great day and worth a visit! I think we will visit again!!! 5 stars and well done to all the staff!!!

Fab day, friendly surroundings, great selection of local cheeses, tour and talk very interesting and cheese tasting was very mourish

Absolutely beautiful cheesy afternoon tea to celebrate my birthday. The staff were attentive and helpful and the food was gorgeous.

La cremosa rareza de Wensleydale fue increíble: la mezcla correcta de queso, cerveza y condimento, es la mejor que he probado y servido en masa madre.

Inexpensive, informative and cheese tasting at the Creamery - Plus the gift shop is a Cheese and W&G lovers paradise!

Ate in the restaurant food was fantastic hot and tasty. The staff were friendly and polite was impressed lady who took our order could understand me as I have a speech problem. Definitely worth the money and staff in the shop were friendly and lovely too . We felt very well looked after will come again

Great to visit and see the hands on approach to cheese making still being utilised. Saw a demonstration as to how the cheese was made in the past and how it has been made until recently when more machinery was added to the moulding section. Tasting the different ranges of Yorkshire Wensleydale was amazing and the range to buy in the gift shop was great. Came away with butter, Brie and lots of cheese.

Interesting factory tour and shop

My husband, 11-year-old son, and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Wensleydale Creamery. From start to finish, it was a fantastic experience, and we would highly recommend it to anyone with an interest in cheese-making (or eating)! We attended a talk by a lovely man named Clive, who was incredibly passionate and knowledgeable. He spoke about how the cheese is made, where it is sourced from, and its rich history. His enthusiasm made the talk engaging, and we learned so much—including the fascinating fact that nothing in the cheese-making process goes to waste. One of the byproducts is even used by a local firm to generate electricity, powering nearly 2,000 homes! The demonstration lasted around 45 minutes and was a great way to start our visit. From there, we moved on to the factory area, where we got to sample a variety of different Wensleydale cheeses—every single one was delicious! There were also fun Wallace and Gromit displays and interactive exhibits for both children and adults. We could see into the factory, but as it was a Sunday, production wasn’t running. We’ve already decided we’ll return on a weekday to see the process in action. After our tour, we explored the gift shop, which was well-laid out and had a great selection. One of our favorite parts was the cheese shop near the café, where we had the chance to taste even more cheeses. We appreciated that there was no pushy sales approach, making it a relaxed and enjoyable experience. In the end, we purchased four different cheeses—though we easily could have bought more! We’ve already said we’ll be returning with my parents, as we know they’ll love it just as much as we did. It was fantastic value for money and we highly recommend a visit!

Gran visita con un montón de degustación de quesos y una disponibilidad para comprar una amplia gama de quesos. El café estaba bien surtido y la taza de sopa casera de bocadillo de queso era delicioso. Mientras que el tipo que dio la demostración de la fabricación de queso era muy entretenido, pensé que £ 7 era caro para la experiencia de media hora.

Great place, plenty of cheeses to sample

Lovely food and beverages, also very busy!

Esta visita fue simplemente brillante! Fuimos primero a la demostración de la quesería, fue interesante sin ser aburrido y después fue tiempo de degustación! El queso es absolutamente delicioso 😋 El lugar en sí está muy bien configurado y hay mucho que ver y ver. Hay algunos restaurantes encantadores, una tienda de regalos muy agradable, tienda de quesos y recomendaría encarecidamente su pastel de frutas para acompañar su queso! Gracias por una gran tarde Wensleydale Creamery 👍

Good staff frendly good cheese making demonstration tells you step by step how it’s made

The cheese making exhibition is very entertaining and seeing the working factory is interesting. A pleasant time had sampling the different cheeses. The 3-cheese quiche from the cafe is recommended.

Milky discharges have been seen coming from the Wensleydale Creamery, into the adjacent river.

Called in for a tour and a meal, however the restaurant was closed for emergency repairs, not that anything was being done while we were there. Had soup and tea in the cafe which was very good. The shop sells a lot of souvenirs. The tour is good and takes about an hour. Check times though. The tourist leaflets have a two for one voucher on the rear. Naturally an extensive cheese shop on site.

A pesar de los horarios de apertura publicitaria la cafetería de 1897 cerró a las 15 : 30 , el miembro del personal nos dijo que no se servía comida caliente a las 14 : 45 . Preguntamos por qué y la señora dijo que el chef tuvo que irse para recoger a sus hijos de la escuela. Dejamos la 14: 00 tour de preparación de quesos (degustación de quesos) temprano para asegurarse de que no llegábamos demasiado tarde para el café Si los últimos pedidos de comida caliente son anteriores a la hora de cierre anunciada, debe indicarlo claramente. Hicimos cola durante más de 10 minutos para que nos dijera esto una señora que no se disculpaba. Esto realmente atenuó nuestra visita y nos fuimos extremadamente decepcionados

Had a lovely day here today with my wife and son. We had a afternoon tea in the restaurant which was amazing. Will come back again for sure.

Very enjoyable tour at the creamery factory, very informative teacher while showing the process of making cheese. Lots of cheese sampling and the onsite cafe has great choices of food and drinks.

We came for the cheese making demonstration and lunch, and if I could give it more than 5 stars I would. The demonstration was fantastic in showing a step-by-step demonstration for 30 minutes, then going to a second building to see a glimpse of the factory, taste their cheeses, learn more about the creamery's history, see the infamous Wallace & Gromit, and other kids hands on displays. The demonstration itself sat 60 people, but everything was still easy to see as they have a thoughtful setup with a camera pointed at the bowls and projected on TVs. I'd recommend getting there a little before to read the signs/objects around the room and get your preferred seat. It was very informative and a great value at £5.95 for adults. The cafe was also delicious, and extremely vegetarian friendly with all the cheese options! The restaurant was fully booked when we arrived before 12, so recommend prebooking if headed there. The cafe was also a good value, with many mains, hot drinks, and pastries on offer - along with a good countryside view. Outdoor tables also available. The shop was also decent sized, with a good assortment of Yorkshire, sheep, Wallace & Gromit, and other items available. The best part, though, was the cheese area as you can sample and buy all of the cheeses, along with other food items like chutneys or crackers. Facility wise: They have clean toilets in the shop area. The car park in front is small but there is a larger car park in the back.

Just a great trip out. The tour as they make the cheese is quite interesting. Little kids love it with their nod to Wallace and Grommet

Canny get enough of this tasty cheese. Edit: 2 Mar 25. Same rules apply. Come here for the tastiest cheese.

Great place to visit! Cheese making session definitely worth it, especially with the tasting room. Really recommend going to the restaurant for afternoon tea as well - but make sure you’re hungry!

We called in without reservation and were seated immediately. The Cheesy Afternoon Tea for Two had been recommended and we weren't disappointed at all. We can highly recommend. Great service, beautiful food in a lovely restaurant 5*

Nut allergy sufferers BEWARE While in the Wensleydale area we visited the Wensleydale creamery for a visit as heard it could be good. We were disappointed but not because of the information, that was nice although quite repetitive but by how staff acted. They were friendly but dismissive of concerns. The tour is basically a few corridors into a room with a kitchen and lots of benches to watch the process, it takes about 45 mins to an hour for the demonstration and is quite repetitive. You then get to go take some pictures with Wallace and Gromit, try some cheeses and see where the factory is doing their work. NOTE: The factory is closed on a weekend completely so all you see is a lot of metal trays and pipes, but nothing in action which was disappointing. I have recently discovered I have a NUT allergy so of course, avoid anything with nuts. When we got to the cheese tasting area, there are little pots with cake and cheese in them. After searching to ensure the cheeses and things do not have allergens, I found a faded sheet around the side to check for allergens. I asked as saw one item said it had peanuts and then was told by the staff member, that ONLY the chutney has any form of nuts in it and nothing else so could try everything there. This we found was untrue. We picked up a pot with the cake and cheese, and thankfully topped up before tasting anything. At the end of the counter, there is a notice that says the Fruit cake DOES contain NUTS - NOT next to the tasting pots. When we said this to the staff member, he just said - its just almonds. WE clarified, that is a NUT and you said it was only in the chutney and he just shrugged it off and went back to sorting things. We have put in a complaint to the company regarding this as it is an unsafe practice.

Nice visit cheese making was good to watch visitor shop was good cafe was good

Pedimos el té de la tarde. La comida estaba caliente, bien presentado y delicioso. La comida nos pareció muy buena relación calidad-precio. El personal era muy amable, profesional y claramente trabajador. La tienda de regalos es grande con un montón de productos locales disponibles. Recomiendo encarecidamente una visita!

The coffee shop was awful. All tables had dirty pots on . And coffee served in paper cups. Won't be calling again

Excelente relación calidad-precio y un día muy bueno. Tim que proporcionó la narrativa y la demostración era a la vez conocedor y tenía un excelente estilo de presentación manteniendo el interés y el humor para todas las edades. 10 / 10

Whilst you couldn't spend a whole day there it was definitely a diverting couple of hours. If you're in the area and the weather closes in there's no better place, with generous samples for all (you don't even have to pay for the cheese experience).

Excellent value and a really good day out. Tim who provided the narrative and demonstration was both knowledgeable and had excellent style of presentation maintaining interest and humour to all ages. 10/10

Did the cheese making session as a family of 7. It was very informative and interesting. Great cheese samples. We then ate in the restaurant which was inexpensive. Excellent food. I can highly recommend the steak and ale pie.

Lots of cheese to choose from!My farviorite one is caramelised onion cheese.Also bought two lovely coaster.The staff is friendly!

Called into the cheese factory on the tour of Wallace and Gromit. First entrance to the shop and see all the Wallace and Gromit merchandise and local products then following through to the cheese room. Trying all the cheese on offer. Wensleydale and Apricot was delicious and purchased a wedge, Called into their own cafe for cheese on toast and a cream scone. The cafe was busy, but didn’t wait long for food to arrive. The cafe has a wall of glass that look straight up the Hawes valley. Views are amazing. Also outside seating available. Two car park outside but unfortunately all full but there plenty of parking on the road outside the cheese factory.

If you are visiting the bijou village of Hawes, and you find you have 'not a lot to do' walk up the hill to where the Wensleydale Creamery (surely 'Cheesery' !) With an excellent shop, selling all sorts of cheese-centric goods, a cheese shop (surprise !!) and a café alongside the factory where they make, well, All the "Authentic"Wensleydale Cheese in the world, and other cheeses too)watch an exhibition of cheese making & the history of this remarkable product(and there's quite a lot of Cartoon stuff made famous by a plastercine dog & his pals) Very interesting, as long as you don't wear 'The Wrong Trousers" !!

A Delightfully Cheesy Afternoon at Wensleydale Creamery! We recently visited Wensleydale Creamery for their Wensleydale Cheesy Afternoon Tea for Two, and what a fantastic experience it was! From the moment we arrived, the staff treated us exceptionally well—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, making our visit all the more enjoyable. The food was, unsurprisingly, a cheese lover’s dream! The Wensleydale Creamery Three Cheese Quiche was the absolute highlight—light, flavourful, and with a wonderfully thin pastry crust that melted in the mouth. The Ultimate Wensleydale Creamery Rarebit was another winner, rich and indulgent, complemented perfectly by the Chilli Chutney, which was absolutely incredible—we only wished there had been more of it! The Wensleydale Mac n Cheese, while decent, didn’t quite wow us as much as the other dishes, but the Chips were cooked to absolute perfection—crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and a perfect side to the cheesy delights. We rounded off the meal with the Yorkshire Wensleydale & Ginger Cheese Cheesecake, a beautifully rich and unique dessert that we thoroughly enjoyed. Overall, this was a fantastic experience, perfect for any cheese enthusiast. The quality of the food, the warm atmosphere, and the exceptional service make Wensleydale Creamery a must-visit. We’ll definitely be back for more!

Really nice tour and demonstration of making cheese

Vino a comer cuando estaba en un día libre y tuvo una comida increíble. Hay mucho para elegir, todo a precios razonables, pero optamos por el té de la tarde con queso a £ 17 cada uno, que incluía 3 tazas de té cada uno y 2 postres cada uno (ver fotos). Fabuloso servicio con excelentes vistas, así que ¿qué más se puede pedir? Y la comida estaba deliciosa, por cierto.

More cheese did I hear you say 😍😍 Absolutely blown away by my wonderful surprise trip to Wensleydale organised by my amazing girlfriend. So A I love Wallace and Gromit And B I Luuuurve cheeeese 🧀 An absolutely brilliant afternoon The cheesey afternoon tea is cheesetastic but the staff at this place are so so lovely, kind , caring and eager to help you enjoy your day. We couldn't finish it off in one go so toddled off to the demo for a quick break The cheese making demonstration was superb, full of humour , facts and of of course the practicalities of turning 8 pints of milk into one Wensleydale cheese. Not the original, you have to try the Kit Calvert version for that! ( see i was listening ) Then back for cheesecake and fruitcake topped with of course a lovely slab of 🧀 A massive 5 stars from us Fantastic day out Congratulations to all the staff and good luck to the restaurant manager for her knee op tomorrow Jan 20 at 1230 💗 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Friendly staff. Great cheese and some lovely gifts in the shop.

Gran día de excursión de experiencia muy informativa. Un montón de muestras para tratar de comprar. Tuvimos una cena en el restaurante.

Worth popping in and doing a loop of the cheese tasting room. Gift shop has some nice bits in it too

We visited Wensleydale Creamery Visitor Centre and ended up learning more about cheese than we ever expected. Our guide Martin was a true cheese enthusiast and made the whole process really interesting. The setup with cameras was great—you get a clear view of everything. The cheese tasting was fantastic—we tried everything they make. The restaurant, though, didn’t quite hit the mark. The food was a bit dry and not as exciting as we hoped. But the staff were super friendly, which made up for it. The views are stunning, and the atmosphere alone is worth the visit.

This Creamery is home of the famous Yorkshire Wensleydale cheese and is an award-winning, independent traditional cheese-maker and specialist blender of cheese. Mentioned by Wallace and Gromit

This is a superb and sensational attraction in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park and the town of Hawes. The visitors detail the story of Wensleydale Cheese and how started by the Monk during the Medieval Period and the cheese making process behind the famous cheese and details it in a very interactive, engaging, informative and enthralling way. There are two parts to the place with visitors going to the coffee shop, cheese shop and gift shop where you see a wonderful range of Wallace & Gromit Merchandise, Wensleydale Creamery Merchandise and other gifts and in the Cheese shop you can see a weird and wonderful range of cheese and such as Wensleydale and Blueberries and Wensleydale and Cranberries and you can enjoy a free sample of these which have a lovely light and creamy taste and texture. The other part of this place is the Cheese Experience which costs a more than reasonable £5.95 for Adults which is thoroughly enjoyable, engaging, interesting and informative where you learn more fascinating information about the history of Cheese Making in Wensleydale and how it was introduced by the Monks who came from France and how it has been through to the modern day. During the Cheese Experience you can also watch a Cheese making demonstration conducted which is excellent where they explain the processes of Cheese Making from Milk through to the final product of Cheese. After the Cheese making demonstration has finished you can wander into the second half of the Cheese Experience you can wander into the Viewing Gallery where you see the Cheese Making process first hand on the production floors and factory. In the Viewing Gallery you can see a great homage to Wallace & Gromit with knitted figures of Wallace, Gromit, Wendoline, Preston, Feathers Mcgraw, Wrong Trousers and Shaun the Sheep and also a further great display of Wallace and Gromit, Feathers Mcgraw and the Rocket from a Grand Day out and also a lovely display about Wallace & Gromits links to Wensleydale Cheese. In the Viewing Gallery there is an opportunity of tasting the cheeses that are made at the Creamery which are absolutely delicious. There is also informative small museum detailing the history of Cheese Making in Wensleydale and the Cheese Making process and you can see some interesting artefacts involved in the process, which are in great condition. The gifts shop has a delightful range of gifts at very reasonable prices and the cafe sells a range of delicious food and drink at reasonable prices. Overall this is a throughly marvellous and enjoyable which makes for an amazing and very memorable lovely day out. Well worth a visit in the Yorkshire Dales and Hawes.

Lovely place to visit in the Yorkshire Dale's.

Lovely day out. Interesting lots to see and learn about cheese making. Plenty of reference to Wallace and gromit and areas for children to discover. The cafe, restaurant and gift shop were all well kept, clean and inviting. Bathrooms available again all nice and clean. I bought the fruit cake and ginger version of the Wensleydale as it tasted the best to me, even if it sounds strange. Entrance was really cheap as my children were free. Quite far out to drive to, but the countryside scenery was beautiful so it didn’t matter.

Couldn't recommend more! If you are a cheese lover this is the place for you. With their generous samples of a great range of homemade cheeses and very informative and engaging demonstration on how to make the infamous Yorkshire Wensleydale, how could you not love it! Can't finish this without a huge shoutout to Tim. He was brilliant in the demonstration, had vast knowledge, could answer every question and the kids loved him!

A great time at Calvert's! The food was so tasty and tasted very homemade. But the real credit were the staff who couldn't do enough for us - and they were super friendly and helpful. I can't wait to go back

Nuestra primera visita al restaurante con mi esposa, cuñada y cuñado para nuestro almuerzo anual de Navidad en algún punto medio entre Blackpool donde viven, y Bedale, donde vivimos. Qué suerte tuvimos de encontrar esta joyita. El personal del restaurante era muy atento y amable y la comida era excepcional y con una gran relación calidad-precio. Compramos más de lo necesario en la quesería donde Clive nos ayudó a navegar por la gama de quesos que se ofrecen. Su asistencia fue muy apreciada. Sin duda volveremos a visitar Calvert's Restaurant de nuevo.

CHEESEEEE GROMIT! We watched the cheese making presentation then spent £50 on cheese. What's not to love?

Restaurant was lovely, but we were turned away from the visitor centre after travelling over two hours and arriving at 14:10. Would be good if the opening hours and overview on Google/Apple maps reflected this or we would have known to come earlier.

Wonderful place to visit- we had a range over ages from 5-70 years old, and everyone enjoyed their visit! Tim the demonstrator was amazing and engaging! Highly recommend!

Great gift shop and delicious cheese that you can try before you buy

This is a lovely place to visit. Very interesting and a lot of fun. There is a cheese tasting section and lovely gift shop.

Good venue to visit for an education in how Wensleydale cheese is made. There's an opportunity to taste the many cheeses before buying your favourites. There is a cafe and a restaurant onsite and parking nearby.

Visited for the 1st time in over 20 years ( due to raising family) and being from Norfolk, wasn't disappointed so pleased for these people who took over when it was either dale farm or dairy crest who decided to close the site down !!! Wonderful experience and lovely staff, great day out and got my favourite supply of Wensleydale and cranberry 😁

Very interesting and informative talk on cheese making and nice Wallace and Gromit display for the children

Enjoyed the visit and very informative guide. Interesting to hear how the local community supports the factory and feeds the local economy, and they don’t ration the freebies lots to taste.

As always the cheese tasting section didn't disappoint. The shop is great and the cafe has an excellent selection of snacks

Great coffee and cheese scone. Fantastic selection of cheese to try and buy. Would definitely recommend

Absolutely brilliant day gorgeous cheese

Wensleydale Creamery at Hawes - watch cheese being made, sample delicious cheeses and I defy anyone to leave without buying lots of cheeses. Hawes is a lovely town to visit as qell

Found this a really interesting educational experience with great tasting to complete the package. What a great hour it was.

If only I could give Wensleydale Creamery more stars! We had a super few hours here, a great place to visit. So interesting. Started with the demonstration (Yorkshire Wensleydale Experience), enthusiastic staff keeping you engaged about process of cheese making and the history through the years. You are able to go on after to see the factory floor where the magic happens at the viewing gallery and also, get to taste the varieties of cheese too (The Taste of Yorkshire). No need to rush either there is plenty on offer, they wont run out! There is a wonderful restaurant and again, we couldn't fault it. Quality food and really helpful staff.... easy on the pocket too. It's a busy place, testament to the standard of this attraction / working creamery. This is the place where local does local extremely well! *Tip - If it rains get there quick, it'll fill quicker than a milk tanker! PCB 👌🏻

Fabulous cheese, as always. We always look forward to our visit.

This time, we went to the demonstration and tastings. It was worth every penny. We learned so much, and the guy was so good that he kept us all enthralled.

Bought from Spar. For price paid aginst usual competitor , brands /abels so similar..wishing you well..too exoensive/ couldn't find value added compared to price point.🤷‍♂️

Great visit - wonderful selection of cheeses with generously-sized samples to try, and a great shop with a big variety of Wallace & Gromit merchandise. If you're a fan of Wensleydale cheese and Gromit (like me) you can't afford to miss this place. Had a nice lunch in the restaurant, too. Keep up the good work!

Wonderful experience! The cheese making tour is amazing...it'll help pay for all the cheese you'll eat in the shop as you can taste every cheese they make! This is also a great location for numerous walks/hikes around the area with many waypoints of interest. We have made some great memories of our time in the Yorkshire Dales and at the centre of them is cheese!

The Wensleydale Creamery is a must-visit for cheese lovers and food enthusiasts alike. The on-site restaurant is a highlight, serving up delicious food that goes beyond just cheese. The menu features hearty dishes that showcase local ingredients, with their cheese-infused dishes being particularly impressive. If you're looking for great food in a scenic location, Wensleydale Creamery won't disappoint!

Only went in for Cream Teas. Not impressed. As we had our dog fair enough we had to sit outside. It was cold out and apart from an umbrella on the table there was no outdoor cover for people with dogs. Tad annoying as it says dogs welcome. Yeh but not inside Good job it didn't rain. Regards the cream team. Not happy. The scone was very nice. Jam nothing special the local supermarket wouldn't sell. Now the cream. That's the 1st time I've had cream tea with squirty cream. Isn't it meant to be clotted cream. This was pure white and foamy, ypical out of a can.This was no doubt my worst cream tea I've ever had and considering we were at the creamery I was shocked. Won't be going back again.

You need to like cheese! Every dish in cafe contains the stuff. Quick service and lovely setting especially outside. Good for filling snacks. Havn't tried the restaurant.

Very interesting experience, learning how the cheese is made, lovely shop and cafe

Well worth a visit! Tim who did the cheese making demonstation was fantastic, funny, informative and incredibly interesting. And as to the cheese, divine!

An interesting little demonstration on the art of Wensleydale cheese making, plus a wide range to try and buy.

If you like cheese and are wensleydale it's a no brainer. Wensleydale Gromitt.

An absolute amazing experience. The lovely lady in the restaurant who could read minds, and went above and beyond. A truly exceptional way to end a difficult day. First class service, a fantastic ambassador for the company. Heartfelt thanks

Plenty of choices and tasters cheese wise, and all delicious!! Lovely gift shop to suit all pockets!!

Good demonstration on how cheese is made
