Who we are
About the farm
In Bethesda, in the heart of Eryri (Snowdonia), we make unpasteurised sheep's milk cheeses and sheep's milk yogurt by hand, in small batches, with natural ingredients and traditional methods; the milk comes from local farms, and each batch is made with milk from an individual farm. We have converted Bethesda's old Catholic church into a creamery and shop (Llaethdy Gwyn), where visitors can watch the cheese being made and taste our products every day from 2 to 5 pm. We also sell our cheeses at several North Wales farmers' markets each month, and shops and restaurants in Wales and London stock them; Brefu bach was named Best New Cheese at the British Cheese Awards in 2016.

Write a review
How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
