Cheese Lovers Must Visit

Patricia H, Dec 2024

Eleanor, our cheese master, was incredibly informative and entertaining. Delicious samples as well! A must see for lovers of cheese.

A wonderful way to spend an hour!

TMOH8, Dec 2024

We visited this small museum and learnt that it had only been open for a couple of weeks. I truly hope and believe that it will be a success.

In our small group of four we took one of their English language tours and learned so much about the history and process. Our guide, Evangelina?) was enthusiastic, through and entertaining, welcoming and answering numerous questions about cheese culture and etiquette.

It's only a small museum but well worth a visit. It costs €20 per person, takes a hour (and we could easily have stayed longer talking about the subject) and includes a tasting of three cheeses.

At the front of the museum element, there is a stunning cheese counter where you can buy your favourites, irrespective of whether or not you take the tour experience.

These people LOVE their cheeses with a passion and enthusiasm that is so refreshing. I wish them every success and will recommend others to give it a visit.

Bon chance!

woahh Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review after coming at the cheese museum :) so happy you enjoyed our place dedicated to cheese courious, amateur, and lovers !!

An excellent new museum and shop - worth a visit

An excellent experience led by staff who are passionate and very knowledgable about cheese and the making process. They tailored the trip to what you wanted to know and our guide spoke excellent English - and was interested in English cheeses and our tastes. They make cheese on the premises and showed the initial process

There is an excellent shop (which is accessible to all) with a mind blowing selection of cheeses to buy. Unfortunately our travel arrangements prevented us from purchasing.

We would recommend the experience for all who love cheese - as we do!
