Cheese is handmade and therefore a variable product, the weights listed are all approximate. We hand-cut our cheeses (unless they are individual, individually wrapped or vac packed) and therefore certain weight variations can occur. We work hard to be as accurate as possible.
3. Cheese is Perishable.
Our cheese is freshly cut to order and is a perishable product with a limited shelf life of around 10 days. Please bear this is mind when placing your order and choosing your delivery date.
Payments are taken via Paypal

A full list of delivery charges is available at our Delivery and Returns page.
Please be aware that these charges can change at any time and that all delivery charges are non-refundable. We reserve the right to re-charge for delivery should the wrong delivery details be given which could cause delay in the courier delivery service. Whilst we endeavour to deliver your order on the date requested, please allow up to 7 working days for delivery of your order. We cannot be held responsible for non-delivery due to adverse weather conditions or situations beyond our control. Any delay in dispatch and/or delivery for whatsoever reason shall not be grounds for a claim for consequential loss.
5. Returns
Please notify us within three days of receipt of your goods if you have a problem. We can only accept returns for faulty goods, in accordance with customer’s statutory rights but unfortunately not for unwanted items.
