A Visit to Daresbury Ice Cream Farm 🍦 

We still think Daresbury Ice Cream Farm is a bit of a hidden gem. Tucked away in the Daresbury countryside, it’s the perfect place to call in for a scoop (or two).

We stopped by on our bikes and weren’t disappointed. I went for a mix of salted caramel and raspberry ripple—both spot on. My friend went bold with the hot cross bun flavour… definitely an interesting choice!

If you fancy a trip out for some top-quality ice cream, they’re open 12-5pm Thursday to Sunday.

We put a video up on our Instagram—check it out! And if you want to see more, here’s their Facebook page: Daresbury Ice Cream Farm.

Theres some video footage as well over on our Instagram page.
