Hurdlebrook Dairy in Somerset is home to a beautiful herd of Guernsey cows who produce some of the most delicious milk imaginable. The milk is sold raw – cooled, but otherwise untreated.

Milk, cream and yoghurt from the farm are available from markets in London, Oxford, Guilford, Somerset and Hampshire, for more information please visit the site below.
