Christmas 2020 Order Update

This has been no ordinary year, and it’s no ordinary Christmas. Several of our most popular products have sold out, Christmas delivery slots have been snapped up and our team have been working night and day to ensure you have the best Wensleydale Christmas Ever. Our small, local food producers have been feeling the pressure too!

Due to the handcrafted nature of many of our products, we simply cannot increase the speed with which they are made and packed to meet the overwhelming demand.

Unfortunately, we have now stopped taking orders until further notice.  We want to ensure that we can fulfil all orders placed & don’t want to let anyone down.

We are working as hard as we can and would like to thank you for your support and understanding.

For those looking for Gift Vouchers. Click here!

Wensleydale Creamery Gift Vouchers make a lovely gift for your loved ones. Our vouchers can be redeemed online or throughout our Visitor Centre. Enjoy Free Delivery on all Gift Vouchers. Please note, last order dates for Gift Vouchers is midnight 20th December for Christmas Delivery.

For those living in Tier 2 areas, our Visitor Centre Cheese & Gift Shop is now open, where you can find a selection of your favourite cheeses and local produce such as fruit cakes, chutney and crackers, as well as fantastic unique gifts for the whole family.  You can build your own hamper too! Our restaurant is open serving Christmas lunch, light bites, hot drinks and cake, so you can combine some fantastic food with your Christmas shopping too.

Our website will reopen for a limited amount of orders each day from 28th December so you can shop all your favourite cheese, deli items and hampers!

    I am so upset that I can’t get my Wensleydale this year.

    Disappointed as I am not to be able to order more of your delicious cheese I fully understand the reason. The discovery of your mail order service has been a bright light in an otherwise dismal year. I will definitely be ordering again in the New Year. Happy Christmas to you all.

    • Wensleydale Creamery

    It’s great that more and more people are buying locally produced goods. My order has no Christmas deadline, so no worries.
    However, would you mind e-mailing me when you are taking new orders, please. I did sign up to subscribe to the newsletter, but I’ve had nothing in the past few months. Keep safe and well.

  • Stephen BINSLEY

    As much as I understand the reason for stopping I am also a little bit peeved as we delayed our order when you mentioned about not ordering too early as the products might not last. We live in East Yorkshire ( Tier 3 ) not much chance then!

    • Wensleydale Creamery

      Hi again Stephen, we’re really sorry about the confusion. All our cheese had 2021 dates and we were offering Christmas Delivery Slots so you could order early for Christmas. Please make sure you sign up to our email newsletter to receive all our stock/order information. We’re so sorry to let you down on this occassion. We hope you understand!

  • Beryl Turner

    Please let me know when I can order 3 Great Wensleydale Hampers at £65 each. I am happy to wait till the new year as I understand how busy you must be -which is good news for your business!

    My three children live so far apart they will be happy to receive their Wensleydale cheeses in 2021.

    Best of Yorkshire wishes. Beryl Turner

    A little bit of warning to your regular customers would have been kind.
    I just logged in to place my regular order and found you had stopped.

  • Barbara Dutton

    Coming to Hawes on Thursday. Hope to be able to pick my own cheeses etc for 2 hampers. Have you thought of making hampers for one person who would not necessarily need a lot of cheese but biscuits etc. I am hoping to do one ,for one on Thursday. Love your shop and your cheeses.

      Hi Barbara – you can shop our range of ready-made hampers or build your own in our Gift Shop. We look forward to seeing you soon!
