On a few special Friday mornings throughout spring and summer, we open our farm for a limited number of guests to show how we craft our delicious cheese.
Join us for a tour of our farm, learn how cheddar is made, explore the 'Cathedral of Cheese' where huge truckles come of age and sample our cheeses, before tucking into a delicious lunch just along the road at The Beer Engine.
[H3] Cheese Tour
There's a lot to pack into your visit to Home Farm...
Welcome talk and hear the intriguing history of the Quicke family.
Step into our Dairy Viewing Room and learn how our cheesemakers expertly craft each truckle by hand.
Whilst in the Dairy Viewing room there will be a tutored cheese tasting, where you'll enjoy the complexity and diversity of the Quicke's range.
Whizz around our cheese stores and see how we age our clothbound cheddar, learn about our unique mould garden and the traditional skill of grading cheese.
Hear from one of our Farm Team about how our cows are so special and see our milking parlour.
Pop to the Quicke's Cheese Shop to do some shopping and pick up a free tote bag.
