![]() About Us & Flavours Great Budworth Ice Cream Farm was launched in the Spring 1994. New Westage Farm is a small dairy farm run by the Wilkinson family with a herd of Friesian cows. After daughter Sarah had completed a degree course in Food & Dairy Technology the loose boxes were converted into a dairy and shop. Fresh Milk is transferred daily into the Dairy and combined with the finest natural ingredients to produce a high quality Ice Cream. Great Budworth village is only a quarter of a mile from the farm and is an attractive Cheshire village with St Mary and All Saints church. It attracts many visitors each year who wander along the avenue of trees, down the hill to a running pump and admire the timbered cottages. Free parking is available at the Ice Cream Farm so that you can walk into the village and back (approx 1 mile round trip) avoiding congestion along the narrow streets of the village. With these parking facilities it makes us ideal for Rambling groups, with many circular footpath routes. By prior arrangement you are welcome to park with us to use our facilities before you set off and then enjoy a hot drink and a freshly prepared cake or an ice cream on your return. We are delighted to welcome daughter-in-law Rachel who has joined our friendly team of staff who are always happy to meet you, and if you are here at the right time you can see the cows coming from the fields for afternoon milking. We regret the farm is not open to the public. Pre-booked tours can be arranged. School Groups, Guiding & Scout groups are welcomed on a guided tour, which are tailored to your requirements. By this we mean they are at the length you require and most importantly it is presented at a suitable pitch to the age range and abilities of your group. We show the many stages of a working dairy farm, using our moto ‘From Cow to Cone’. You are led (when available) by our very own qualified teacher and the Farmer. During school holidays, weather permitting, we have a bouncy castle to enjoy. Also, Throughout the summer we have weekend events taking place, which include carriage rides and the Bostock Band entertaining us. Over the past 6 years our Maize Trail has been open throughout the summer holidays and includes a free ice cream. Flavours
