    Bodnant Welsh Food - Ice cream from the icecream parlour

    I'd call this a hidden Welsh gem. Freshly picked and local…read moregrown fruit and vegetables, traditional Welsh cheese and butter, local meat and numerous local beers, chutneys and herbs and spices. In the middle there is also a selection of chocolates to die for along with a mini bakery with freshly made Welsh cakes and bread. With all the produce being locally sourced, you know what you're getting. But bearing this in mind, the prices aren't cheap. There's also a cafe, icecream parlour, wine shop and bee centre located right outside so everyone should be able to find something to suit their taste.

    Although the Bodnant Food Centre is only a few miles from home until today we'd never visited. It's…read morethe sort of place you need to go out of your way to get to and in any case we'd heard mixed reviews of the place. However one quiet Saturday afternoon we needed something to pass an hour and with nowhere else to go we turned south down the Conwy Valley and headed for Furnace Farm. The centre essentially comprises three parts for visitors the Hay Loft Restaurant, The Furnace Tea-Room and the Furnace Farm Shop. There are however other parts of the business including a cookery school and a bee keeping centre. We didn't try either the restaurant or tea-rooms on our visit but instead headed for the shop. My first impression was that it was bigger than I'd expected, it's maybe the size of an average convenience store but for some reason I'd expected a tiny little room. There's everything you'd expect from a shop like this including meat, veg, dairy produce, preserves, cakes, beer and all manner of cooking ingredients. Surprisingly for a Welsh food centre some of the produce wasn't Welsh, I spotted produce from Shropshire, Gloucestershire and Yorkshire amongst others, but most of the stock is Welsh. There's some genuinely local produce too including beer from the Great Orme Brewery which misleadingly isn't located on the Great Orme but is in fact located about a mile to the north of Furnace Farm on the outskirts of Glan Conwy. They also stock preserves from Baravelli's of Conwy and cakes from Swigr a Sbeis and Ty Hwnt I'r Bont, both of which are located just down the valley in Llanrwst. They also stock locally reared meat and game, some of which is reared on the Bodnant Estate and rest elsewhere in the Conwy Valley. What isn't surprising is that the prices are often a bit hefty, this isn't somewhere many people will go to do the weekly shop. We bought a few items (mainly Great Orme beer!) but I think for most normal families this is somewhere to purchase couple of treats rather than do any substantial shopping. In many ways it's more of a tourist attraction than a shop for the locals and I'm sure they'll be looking to attract coach parties to boost their trade. Although we will no doubt return at some point in time it's not likely to be anytime soon. However I do hope the business succeeds. It does provide much needed employment in a rural area and also provides a place for local food produces to sell their wares so it's not all bad.
