Our Cow Molly Dairy Ice CreamRaw milk · Sheffield, South Yorkshire4.8 (2051 reviews)Our Cow Molly is a family run dairy farm at Dungworth on the edge of Sheffield, where the herd's own milk and cream are turned into small batch ice cream on the farm. The scooping cabinet runs from classics like chocolate and strawberry to Bakewell Tart, Wild Cherry Cheesecake and Cora's Chaos, with a couple of sorbets and take home tubs in two sizes.
Fresh milk is just as much of the story, with a vending machine shop at the farm open long hours every day and a doorstep delivery round. The ice cream parlour itself opens daily through the school holidays. - 2
Low Sizergh BarnRaw milk · Kendal, Westmorland and Furness4.5 (3140 reviews)Low Sizergh Barn is a farm shop and café at Low Sizergh Farm in Sizergh, near Kendal. They farm with the future in mind, looking after the soil, landscape and wildlife, and the main crop is the grass the cows eat all year round, which helps them produce organic raw milk. The gallery windows in the café look down into the milking parlour, and the cows are milked daily from 3.30pm to 5pm.
The shop opens daily and is well stocked with local produce, from beer to bread and cheese to chutney, plus farm grown veg and a deli counter. The café serves breakfast, lunches made from scratch and afternoon treats, there is a free farm trail to explore, and the farm also runs a small campsite with pitches for tents and caravans and a wooden pod. - 3
Tagg Lane DairyRaw milk · Bakewell, Derbyshire4.7 (1806 reviews)Tagg Lane Dairy produces raw Jersey milk at Monyash, near Bakewell. The milk is sold whole and untouched, with nothing added to enhance or stabilise it, and the dairy has become known for its gelato and speciality coffee as well. There is even a small caravan site if you want to stay close by.
You can buy raw Jersey milk at the dairy on Tagg Lane or order through the online shop, with bottles running from six up to twenty litres. The shop is open Monday to Friday, 10.30am to 5pm, and 10am to 5pm at weekends. - 4
Morwick FarmRaw milk · Morpeth, Northumberland4.8 (1384 reviews)Morwick Farm is a working dairy farm at Acklington, near Morpeth in Northumberland. The herd is mostly Holstein and Ayrshire cows alongside a few Jerseys. In the warmer months they graze Northumberland grass, and through the winter they are fed silage grown on the farm together with feeds made up by the farm's nutritionist. The farm states plainly that it does not feed Bovaer or any other chemical additive to its cows.
Milk from the herd goes into the farm's own gelato style ice cream, made on site and pasteurised. About twenty flavours sit in the counter at any time and they change often, from the plain fior di latte made with the Jersey milk to mango yogurt and salted caramel, several of them winners at the Great Taste Awards. The Parlour is open daily for cones, tubs, take home tubs and coffee, and the farm also makes semifreddo and ice cream cakes. Morwick no longer sells raw milk or milkshakes. - 5
Milk MaidsRaw milk & eggs · Bolton, Greater Manchester4.8 (1331 reviews)Milk Maids is an award winning family dairy farm at Over Hulton in Bolton, where the family has cared for the land and the cows for over 70 years. Milk from their own herd is bottled daily and sold either pasteurised or raw, and it also goes into their handcrafted gelato ice cream, with 24 flavours that change every month.
The farm shop sells the milk and ice cream alongside free range eggs from Staveley's Eggs, and you can order online for click and collect. The shop is open six days a week, closed on Tuesday, and opens a little earlier for anyone just after milk and eggs. - 6
Boydells Dairy FarmRaw milk · Braintree, Essex4.8 (1075 reviews)Boydells Dairy Farm is a small working sheep dairy at Wethersfield, five miles north of Braintree in the north Essex countryside. It is run by the Threadgold family, Roy and Cherry, with their son Kiley now in charge, and sheep milk has been produced here since 1987. The farm covers 42 hectares, all of it grass grown to feed the animals, some of it cut for hay. Around 300 milking ewes and their offspring make up the bulk of the livestock, alongside cattle, goats, pigs and poultry, plus a pony, a donkey and a llama.
Milking takes place in a modern rapid exit parlour in batches of 18 ewes, and the family make their prize winning cheese Plumley, yogurt in various flavours and their well known Yoggipops sheep yogurt ice lollies. Their milk also goes to other cheesemakers, including the makers of Lord of the Hundreds. They are members of the British Sheep Dairying Association. The farm is open to the public from April to the end of August with guided, hands on tours that include the sheep milking, and there is a small shop selling refreshments and dairy produce, a picnic and play area and free parking. - 7
Millers Farm ShopMeat · Axminster, Devon4.6 (1205 reviews)Millers Farm Shop sits on Gammons Hill at Kilmington, just outside Axminster, and is run by James and Olivia Miller. Some of the vegetables sold in the shop are grown in the farm's own fields, and the rest of the range comes from nearby suppliers who share the family's standards, from seasonal produce through to meat.
The shop is open Monday to Saturday from 7.30am, with shorter hours on bank holidays and Sunday opening in December. The Teapot Cafe on site serves from 9am to 5pm Monday to Saturday, and well behaved dogs are welcome in the cafe though no longer in the shop itself. - 8
Northney Farm Tea RoomsFarm shop · Hayling Island, Hampshire4.6 (1142 reviews)Northney Farm Tea Rooms sits on a working dairy farm in Northney village on Hayling Island, run by the same family that has farmed the island for over a hundred years. Mary and her husband Stan run the dairy side of the farm, milking a herd of 120 pedigree Ayrshire cows, while Mary's brother Simon runs the arable side and the farm shop. Some of the herd is crossed with the farm's Aberdeen Angus bull to produce beef cattle alongside the dairy operation.
Mary and Stan's son Tim set up Northney Dairy Ltd in 2008 and began making ice cream from the farm's own milk, and the dairy now also bottles semi skimmed milk. Both are sold in the tea rooms his brother James runs on the farm, where tables in the garden look out over the fields and the cattle. The drinking milk on sale is described by the farm as semi skimmed and bottled. - 9
Priory Farm EstateFarm shop · Redhill, Surrey4.5 (1289 reviews)Priory Farm Estate covers 150 acres of pasture, ancient woodland and lakes at South Nutfield near Redhill in Surrey, founded by the Shinner family in 1957 and still family run after nearly 70 years. Today the estate is best known for its award winning farm shop, garden centre, gift barn, cafes and the Discovery Land adventure play trail, open all year.
The farm shop carries seasonal fruit and vegetables, with crab apples, pumpkins and squashes grown on the farm itself in autumn, alongside a butchery making handcrafted sausages by hand, cheeses, bakery goods and deli lines. Much of the range comes from producers across Surrey, Sussex, Kent and beyond under the shop's Love Local banner, so the estate reads mainly as a destination farm shop and family day out rather than a working livestock farm. - 10
