Rose grew up on the Nettlebed Estate: a 2,000 acre family estate owned and ran by her Mother and Aunt, which has been in her family, The Fleming Family – of James Bond fame – for 100 years. Yet she migrated to London to become first an actress, before ex-offender worker and then Borough Market stall holder, specialising in selling Scottish produce. When the future of the dairy farm came up for discussion, Rose decided the time was right to move back and help make the farm viable. Becoming organic, they seeded complex herbal leys for better soil and pasture and reduced cow numbers from 500 high-yielding to 130 mixed breed cows (they have Friesian, Swedish Red and Montbeliarde) for quality milk. This quality milk was then destined to be made into cheese, and in 2015 the dairy was completed, complete with eco friendly woodchip boiler and solar panels. Several cheeses have been developed, all named after their local landmarks (Bix Village, Highmoor town and Witheridge Hill). They are all superb examples of their diverse pasture, milk quality and the hands-on traditional French approach they use to cheesemaking.

All our cheeses are cut fresh to order unless they are small individual cheeses produced in that size by the producer. We cut, wrap and pack orders on the day they are sent out on a next day service and will arrive to you with at least 14 days life. We have partnered with DPD as our trusted courier partner who will keep you updated with tracking information when they receive the parcel from us. Upon checkout you can choose the day you would like to receive your products and can also choose a premium morning delivery slot.
