Who we are

About the farm

We handcraft our Stilton and blue cheeses the traditional way in the village of Cropwell Bishop, Nottinghamshire, using recipes passed down by three generations of the Skailes family; our family has been making and selling cheese for more than 160 years, and Cropwell Bishop Creamery has been ours since 1949. Our milk comes from a handful of family farms in the Peak District, which we pay a fair market price plus a small premium. Our range includes Blue Stilton, Blue Shropshire, Beauvale soft blue cheese, Red Leicester and Potted Stilton. We welcome customers at our Cheesemaker's Shop and tearoom in front of the creamery, Monday to Saturday 10 am–3 pm, and we also send our cheese by mail order from our online shop.

Who are you?

As a producer, use the email address on your farm profile.

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.

Is this your farm?

If this is your farm, you can take over the profile: click the button and enter your e-mail address. If it matches the address stored for the farm or the website's domain, you receive an edit link at once; otherwise we verify you with an SMS code sent to the farm's known phone number, or with a short manual check. The link is valid for 30 days; your changes appear immediately marked "under review" and become final after approval.
