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.

This place, for my family, all started when a local pub stocked it for their puds, we already knew…read moreit was good when we discovered it was literally just down the road from one of my highschool friends. We'd ride our bikes here, using the ice creams as treats and calorie deficits, or come here to see the alpacas and come for lunch. The place is a little farm, caravan park, campsite, with rabbits, cattle, poultry, alpacas, goats you can feed, sheep, allsorts, and a little chalet where you can have your lunch, or buy farm shop type goodies. Lunch is pretty basic, a few choices of soups, sandwiches, salads, and the beauties that are Staffordshire oatcakes. But hell, I know that's not what you're after. You guys want the icecream don't you? Well, it's awesome, get yourself a big fat banana split, a sundae, cones, tube, to eat in, or you can purchase little cinema style single serving tubs, or treat yourself to varying litres, yes, litres. I'm personally always a fan of a banana split, as I can pretend I'm not being completely awful to my waistline, and you get to pick three flavours. My current absolute favourite is the Jaffa cake icecream, I described it to my other half, and he said its description was more unnecessarily arousing than the old marks and Spencer's ads. This isn't just any icecream, this is: tiramisu, Turkish delight, vanilla, blackcurrant, tutti fruity, bubblegum, chocolate, blackcurrant and licorice, ginger and lime, cappuccino, strawberry, dulce de leche, banana, banoffee, mint n choc, cherry, honeycomb, and so so much more thick, creamy, jersey cow deliciousness. Ps; there's also an owl sanctuary...

There are loads of flavors, my favourites so far are raspberry swirl, humbug and honeycomb - yum yum yum! It's really cheap considering it is home made ice cream. You can buy it by the cone or in various sized tubs. Obviously the bigger tub you buy, the cheaper it works out per litre ( by the biggest!! He he ). There is a lovely field outside with picnic benches, perfect to drive, cycle or walk to. If coming from Stafford it is possible to get there on a cycle path, google it.

Think of an awesome flavour of milkshake that you've never tasted, seen or heard of - and I'm not talking about goat curry or Lego & vinegar - I mean like Dime Bar, Oreo or ginger cake, or any combination thereof; mint Aero & bourbon or peanut butter and Minstrels. Then imagine you can have that flavour explosion handed to you in a cup. That's Shakeout. I have never tasted a milkshake from Shakeout that was anything less than delicious.

There are big teddy bears of Kermit the frog and Bob the builder plus a kind of jaunty, colourful interior. Only a few tables here, for Curly Cornet's select eating in customers. Otherwise people just run in, get their ice cream and go. The menu is basically toasties here- ham and cheese toastie, tuna and cheese toastie, you get the picture. But it is cheap, my toastie was nice - I declined ice cream, it was far to cold. This is Manchester, well Derbyshire, lets not forget. The staff at this place are so friendly. I'm sure it didn't hurt that some of my family stop in regularly but when the lady behind the counter heard that I was jumping on the train to Piccadilly later she told me all about the Hadfield, Dinting, which way around does the train travel mess. So sweet and helpful which meant there is a really nice camaraderie about the place. If Cheers were an ice cream and toastie shop...

Freshly made on site with milk and cream from the farm's cows, this ice cream is creamy without being sickly and comes in a huge range of flavours, from the usual vanillas and chocolates to tangerine. My favourite is hokey pokey, which I certainly recommend. It is a bit out of the way but definitely worth a visit. There's a car park and the cafe is accessible by wheelchair.The ice cream is available in large tubs to take home, and they also sell a wide range of homemade jams and preserves. They do bits of food too - toasted teacakes and fantastic bacon sandwiches. The staff are really friendly and it'd be a lovely place to go with the family. In terms of the farm, there isn't a great deal to see - a little walk and a couple of animals, but the cafe is the star attraction for me!

Tong Lane, Bradford…read more BD4 0RP 01132852728 This is more than just a farm - this is a b & b too so you can stay here for the night and take it easy or just call in for a couple of hours. The kids loved all the different farm animals and wouldve happily stayed there all day but we became a bit hungry so we needed to get food. There is a small cafe there with a few outside tables too and they do the normal range of small cafe foods - sandwiches/buns, etc with a nice selection of home made icecreams which were gorgeous. They do a nice cream tea which was very filling and gorgeous. The place as a bit hard to find so make sure you have directions before setting off. The prices are a bit steep but well worth it for a nice afternoon out or even a stay overnight. The place is nice and tidy with the exception of farm smells obviously. The staff are very friendly and even invited us into their house to look at their new kittens., how trusting is that? A lovely day out.

It's adorable- all big trees and cobbles, and the most enormous goat I've ever seen in my life. Everything was planted up pretty, and little old guys scooting up on their mopeds for a scoop. I'm 99% sure this is the best ice cream in the land. You can choose from so many flavours, I had fanuttytastic and carrot cake, the latter was particularly exceptional, but I was also tempted by the white mountain, the banana, the Turkish delight, the sloe and damson gin, the elderflower and rhubarb and the maple and walnut- so I'll just have to come back, won't I?

ERMAHGERD this ice cream is amazing!…read more Seriously, Snugbury's is a one of a kind place. A small little farm-style set up with an onsite creamery and a shop selling no less than fourty, YES - FOUR-ZERO - flavours of ice cream and frozen yogurt. Once you've made your decision you can plonk yourself on the numerous benches or prostrate on the garden lawn (if you overdo it on the cream) and there is also a short country walk if you'd prefer to burn off some of your sugar intake. Every flavour is churned on site and given a suitably cheeky name (think B&J pre-Unilever). They also have seasonal limited editions like Summer Pimms and have previously partnered with a local Cheshire bakery for an apple pie ensemble (with whole apple pie churned into it!). In the interest of research (and gluttony) I opted for the double scoop, one of 'Driving me Cherries', a rich chocolatey flavour packed full of juicy fresh black cherries, topped off with the creamiest coconut ice cream I have ever tasted. Most importantly they give good cone - if you're a selling me an ice cream in a wafer cone, then frankly you can shove your wafer where the sun don't shine! I want a cone of equal calorific value to its contents and Snugberry's deliver with their crisp and sugary waffle cones. A right proper handful. Tactical ice cream tip: the servers are real pro's with their scoopage, filling the cone completely. So if you are going to get a double scoop ask for your favourite flavour first to get the most of it. Am I over thinking this? Possibly. Do I care? Not a chance.
