We make Barwheys Cheese exclusively from the unpasteurised milk of our special herd of pedigree Ayrshire cattle. The cheese is made by hand, bandaged in traditional cotton cheesecloth and carefully aged on wooden shelves for between 10 and 14 months.

Today we are the only cheesemaking dairy in South Ayrshire. We are proud to be reinvigorating the local tradition of handmade cheese a short distance from where Robert Burns’s mother made cheese and to be returning a few more of Ayrshire’s fields to the cattle for which they are so suited.
