The play-barn is a good place for the kids to run off some energy. Throughout there's an emphasis on informing and educating as well as entertaining, which we liked. There's a good farm shop too, and a great restaurant/cafe -- we very much enjoyed the lunch we had there. All in all, an excellent place to visit -- highly recommended.

We need more of these Frurt shops around Manchester! It is simply DELICIOUS and healthy too (well…read morecompared to other desserts for sure). I tend to go for the natural flavour in a medium pot with raspberry's and honey, this costs between £3.50 and £4. Totally worth it. They usually have 4 or so flavours on offer. Today they had natural, peanut butter, match green tea and mango. You can have a little taste before you pick. They have a range of toppings too, ranging from fruit to chocolate and a variety of sauces to top it all off. In addition to the yummy fro-yo they also sell coffee and tea, as well as snacks including delicious protein balls that are vegan and healthy. The customer service has always been 5* in my experience, can't fault the guys that work here. The actual shop is a fairly small unit with about 5 seats inside and a few outside when the weathers nice. To be honest I'm surprised they've got 5 seats in there but they have, and it's comfortable. Most people tend to buy to take away. I also like that they offer a loyalty card, after 3 visits you get a free topping and after 6 you get a free small fro-yo. A must visit.

Now *this* is more like it, Manchester. For eons I've been obsessed with fro-yo, lamenting the fact…read morethat I'd presumably have to hop on a Virgin Train to London to enjoy it freshly made, watching the supermarket freezer shelves like a hawk for the yogurt versions of Ben & Jerry's Phish Food and Fudge Brownie. Want to know a secret? I actually prefer frozen yogurt to ice cream. It's true. It cannot be touched in terms of light, delicious brilliance. So how excited was I when I saw the bright, inviting colours of Frurt on Whitworth Street West, just off Oxford Road round the corner from Cornerhouse? All kinds of. Shortly after spying that I joined my flat-hunting amigo in an estate agents' office two Saturdays ago and picked up a copy of Urban Life to flick through. What did I see but a Frurt advert, noting their opening weekend at the end of July? Oh, now I was even happier. While I didn't make it to their grand sample give-out due to weekend commitments, the hideously cloying weather had me making a beeline for their enticing, clean and fun-looking shop. I couldn't resist. Instantly I was intrigued by the Fruit Parfait, which at £3.50 is one of the best value things on the menu (and they're all great value, believe me). You get your generously scooped and whipped fro-yo, with a choice of four flavours - au naturel, chocolate, strawberry or green tea. As soon as the last one was mentioned I was decided. Then it's topped with granola, a delightful drizzle of honey and your choice of two fruits - for me it had to be strawberry and mango. Off I wandered... and I stopped. I'm so silly for thinking I could eat this on the go. It demands your attention. You have to savour and enjoy it, and I found myself a peaceful spot of street and gave my treat the focus it deserved. And I didn't want it to end. It was almost breakfasty with the granola, fruit and honey, and there are plentiful topping choices if you want to feel a little naughtier. Just know that the base fro-yo is stupendously healthy. Isn't that just awesome? Going to a movie at the Cornerhouse? Grab yourself a cheeky takeaway treat beforehand. They're open until 10pm each day and it's our duty as independent business-loving Mancunians not to let them down. Frurt is one of those specialist places we sorely need in these parts, so let's enjoy it!

So I'm half saddened and half delighted whilst writing this review. Delighted because Ice Cream…read moredoesn't get better than Holdens yet saddened because it's April and I should be able to eat Ice Cream every day out in the sun by now and it's bloody raining.. Ahhh the good old north west ey! Anyhow, back to this creamy genius: Holdens Ice Cream is a staple of any Bolton childhood and it remains my favourite ice cream to this day at the grand old age of 24. I can still remember the days when my grandma would take me up to Edgworth on a summers day to eat gallons of Ice Cream and play on the park for what seemed like 10 minutes but likely was closer to 5 hours - it literally is a taste of summer for me! In recent years, the family of the inventor have rebranded the Ice Cream and started to introduce a whole range of flavours where previously it was just vanilla. You can get all sorts, like pistachio, strawberry and about 15 other fruity combinations, but for me its always the original, and it always will be! If you're in these parts for a nice walk or watching the local football/cricket - definitely brave the queues and grab yourself some of the best homemade Ice Cream around!

I am 45 now and Holdens would be a place I would frequently visit with my mum and then stepdad 30 years ago.

It…read moreprovides a welcome break after a long walk along the promeade because you can wind down in this lovely cafe whether it is to sip a mug of coffee, slurp on a luscious sundae or bite on a toasted sandwich. Most strikingly through their window, you'll easily see that their speciality is selling beautiful ice cream for your delights (at a cost)! However, you'll find a generous variety of flavours to make your mouth water. My favourite has to be Pistachio, which I found to be just as good as the one I had in Venice. Certainly worth the money if you enjoy it! As well as ice cream and hot drinks, they strangely combine their sweet business by offering a selection of savoury snacks, such as breakfast butties and soups with rolls. These dishes are are a bit pricey but when you consider it's prime location and fine dining experience, it is second to none. All this makes Rich's such a tempting place to visit and why not on a gorgeous day. "I scream, You scream, We All scream for ice cream!"

And now, back to an establishment that is a bit more traditional in Southport, Rich's Coffee Shop…read moreand Geleteria. Although, saying that, 'geleteria' does sound a bit exotic and unusual, doesn't it? It does sound more enticing than 'ice cream shop' though, so I can see why they'd use that instead. Rich's is primarily a nice little café at the quieter end of Lord Street which offers its customers a pleasant atmosphere in a reasonably-sized area that gives shoppers the chance to take the weight of their feet and have a hot drink and a sandwich or light snack. However, where Rich's really excels is in its range of desserts. As their sign says, Rich's sells ice cream in a variety of flavours and colours, meaning even the fussiest person could find a flavour to suit their tastes (I usually play safe and stick to chocolate myself, but each to their own). Their dessert menu also features a selection of homemade delicacies such as sundaes and huge chocolate éclairs which at three quid are pretty expensive but are definitely worth it, as my éclair-loving friend will testify.

This one in Cockermouth is an ice cream parlour and coffee shop.

That's how things are done at Brymor. While you can buy Brymor ice cream in a lot of places in Yorkshire I have a soft spot for their parlour at High Jervaulx which I've been coming to since I was a little girl. They specialise in super creamy ice cream, mostly with traditional flavours (no Oreo here, but you'll get rum and raisin) as well as some sorbets. You can have cones or pots, or you can choose one of the indulgent sundaes. They have plenty of space and you can sit in the cafe or buy cartons of ice cream to take home. They also have play areas for children. They sell gifts and cards as well as a few non-ice cream items like milk and cream from the Guernsey herd and local cheese and honey.

Fabulous ice cream - both really good quality and rich base (milk and double cream from Guernsey…read morecows) and a mix of classic and more unusual favours including lemon Wensleydale cheesecake, rhubuarb & ginger and elderflower. You can choose from nice waffle cones or tubs. Loads of seating space and free wifi (although it didn't work when I visited).

Charlotte's real jersey icecream parlour…read more As soon as I heard about this place I thought as an icecream lover it would be rude not to visit when I was in the area so straight in the car and off we went into the beautiful West Yorkshire countryside near Dewsbury to grab some yummy icecream. I thought the setting was wonderful it was possible to see for miles around. I was pleasently surprised how much this place had to offer as if all that icecream and cakes wasn't enough for you there is also animals which includes donkeys, rabbits, goats, geese, and of course cows and a playground and mini golf. Yes there is mini golf with the most amazing views of West Yorkshire The icecream was simply delicious I have to admit it was difficult to decide from all the yummy flavours 24 in total lucky that it is possible to have scoops of different ones together in one tub. Also they sell large tubs to take away and store in your freezer. It is possible to eat inside the cafe or the is seating outside which is lovely on a nice day. We went on a saturday afternoon and it was busy this little spot seems very popular. Parking was free I suggest visiting the website for a map and details of how to find the place.
