Advantages: Strong flavour and a lovely buttermilk colour. Disadvantages: None although of course cheese is full of cholesterol.
I rather like a nice chunk of strong cheddar and often go for Canadian as these rich cheeses are lovely with chutney and crackers. However recently I noticed a new cheese in Waitrose which is also available through the online delivery company Ocado called Cornish Quartz. There is something about the name which really appealed to me, so I purchased a small piece first to see if I liked it.
Waitrose have done the correct thing here, I feel, which is to sell the cheese in three sizes. At the moment Ocado have a half price offer selling the smallest piece for £1.34 for 100g, and the largest is £1.97 for 350g so it is an excellent time to see if you like it.

Advantages: everything and more! Disadvantages: absolutely none!
is very clean and safe. There are lifeguards on the beach and the sea is calm on its best days; quite the opposite to Newquay which is on the opposite side of the coast. There is usually a bouncy castle also on the beach for kids to use. The beach has its own water sports centre where you can hire boats, wetsuits and fishing equipment etc. at a reasonable rate and on a daily or weekly basis. There are also banana boat rides which you can pay to go on, very fun! There is a boat launch facility also which I have used in the past, you can take your on boat and they will help you get it in/out of the water. The beach has been given a high quality standard from the MCS (The Marine Conservation Society) and they recommend it for bathing.
There is a large shop which caters for all holiday shopping needs. It sells everything from fresh food ...
Advantages: Free tasting, good prices, wide selction of products Disadvantages: The elderflower wine is yucky!
I have been to this farm several times now (I think about 6) and have loved every visit. The first time I went I was only 16 and could not try the free samples and was a little bored. I was at that age where the tractor ride was not impressive, the tour was boring and the shop was out of bounds. I do think however that this would be a great place for adults and children alike. If you are planning to visit Cornwall this month try the Cornish Cyder Farm (formerly Callestock Cider Farm).
I hope I have covered everything in this review.
***HISTORY***
The farm is about 150 years old and the buildings reflect this age. The farm is the largest Cider maker throughout Cornwall. The products can be found in every tourist shop in Cornwall from Lands End to Plymouth so living here there is little requirement for a visit to the farm - but it ...
