Dairy farm with it's own ice cream shop…read more Fresh made ice cream is for sale, so many flavors available. So many different cone options - 5- , a nice indoor cafe, because they don't just sell ice cream, but other eating options as well, such as sandwiches and what not. Out side, you can watch the cattle in the field or let your young ones play in the wonderful play yard. While I was there I saw several young families taking advantage of those facilities. One thing i noticed, they had a sign out front (And presumably because they're the first public open thing on a relatively long road) That read something to the effect of "We don't charge for the use of our facilities but if you bring in outside food, there will be a $5 charge.

This was a nostalgia trip. I remember being a kid (primary age) and getting to go here with my…read moregranny and grandad just for a wee tub of ice cream for the occasional after dinner treat. My granny loved rum and raisin, and I developed the taste for it too. That is about 20-25 years ago, and for the past few years I've wanted to go back but had little opportunity. That is, until I convinced Smurf that she wanted to go out there for a birthday treat. I hold my hands up, I manipulated her good, but thats what all the best aunties do. Its not as far outside Dumfries as I remember, I had prepared myself for a long trip and it actually took about 10 mins. We got there and Smurf headed straight towards the outdoor play park and I headed over to the cows at the other side of the fence. I have a thing about cows, I love them. I'd actually have one as a pet if I could. After a while, we went inside and ordered ice cream. All in, it cost about £10 for a mug of coffee, a pot of tea and 2 bowls of ice cream (3 scoops in each and a flake). I scoffed mine, and it was good. Smurf ended up playing with hers for a bit then left it to go and play with the other kids in the play area at the back of the shop. The cafe area wasn't overly busy at 11 am but it looked like a mothers group or bunch of friends had chosen it as a meeting place, kids were happy with ice cream and toys, mums were happy with coffee. Service was good, prices were decent and I really enjoyed my visit. I will definitely not be leaving it over 20 years for my next visit.

This is a perfect cafe and a place to hang out, I would definitely recommend going here. When I…read morefirst saw this it was closed due to low supplies, and I'm not surprised. The hot chocolate is the most delicious hot chocolate I have ever tasted. And the churros had the right amount of cinnamon. And the chocolate sauce tasted just like the hot chocolate. The staff were friendly and helpful and provided tasters of the drink. The WiFi is locked with a password, this may seem like a downside, but it isn't, it protects the network and stops high traffic so it is good . Pricing is very reasonable, 6 churros, large hot chocolate plate, chocolate caramel slice, tea and a tub of ice cream equates to around £15 pound. Better than other shops around the area. I enjoyed it greatly and I highly recommend. Only drawback is the font is papyrus.

This one in Cockermouth is an ice cream parlour and coffee shop. I think vanilla is the best, but they have every flavour imaginable - the ones incoporating local produce such as raspberries are also divine. If your not travelling too far, you can also buy the ice cream by the box load!!

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.

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.

Rich's Ice Cream Coffee Shop and Gelataria is based along Southport's shopping boulevard. 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.

To be honest, both my wife and I absolutely loved the food. It was different as you can tell there…read morewere effort in the designing of the menu. The biggest problem for us however was the fact that the food took literally 45minutes to come. At 35mins when I followed up the food, the waiter said you will be the next order. I mean I know you guys are classy and serve brunch whole day, but since when was that kind of time frame acceptable? We had a baby, and in the end the baby got bored and over tired waiting that he also started screaming. Let's just say, it was definitely the speed of the food's fault. I'd have rated the food a 5 star. But my over all experience can at most be a 2. I had to rush so badly that I basically had to just smash the food down. Improve on your speed in delivery and you'd get a better rating, if I get to return one day, or if I get a refund for my food. (You know I was in a rush when I didn't even get a chance to photo my food, and I'm such a photos guy!)

Listen, I realize they're not really using Yelp all that much in the UK, but for the American…read moretourists who are...here ya go: This place is amazing. It was actually recommended to my friends and I from the owner/operator of a kayaking company in Bowness-on-Windermere. He said he visits Homeground all the time. Anyway, the restaurant is located on a busy little main street full of restaurants and cute shops, which makes for great walking post-meal. Parking can be kind of a bitch. If you're lucky, you find something free on the street. If you're not, you find a nearby pay lot. The restaurant itself has that whole hipster/earthy vibe to it. Even the employees fit the look. It's open, it's woody, and the first thing you see when you walk in is the big coffee apparatus (listen, I don't drink coffee, I have no idea what those machines are called...) and the barista. Food is brought to your table and cleaned up for you. Our cashier was friendly, even when he was barraged with a ton of questions from a very picky eater in our bunch. He actually took the time to explain the process of poaching an egg to her, despite how busy he seemed. (FYI: If it says poached egg, you're getting a poached egg. This is not a "cook eggs to your liking" kind of place.) And when I asked him for recommendations on a sweet treat, he gladly shared his favorite. The menu is amazing (see photos), so I had a hard time choosing what I wanted. In the end, I ordered the Homeground Sarnie (not realizing it was a sandwich). This was a hell of a sandwich, loaded with everything from bacon and eggs (an add-on) to a weird (but delicious) fried hash brown patty. (Also, I'd like to say that I love how arugula is so widely used in the UK.) In addition to my sandwich, I ordered a scone with a side of butter and jam (when in Rome...). The scone had dried fruit, which added some additional sweetness; it was crusty on the outside, soft on the inside - yum! And because I'm a girl who loves to eat (and has a major sweet tooth), I also ordered one of the pastries on display. Unfortunately, no photo, but it was a blueberry frangipane bar with a lovely dollop of cream on top. I didn't eat this till much later, but it was tasty. I also had a few bites of my friend's Huevos Rancheros order and WOW - a definite recommend (although, make sure you're hungry, as this is a pretty big portion). Get the chorizo - it's fantastic. If I ever find myself in Windermere again, I'd definitely go back.
