Summer has a way of slowing everything down - longer evenings, impromptu gatherings, and those golden-hour moments that call for something delicious on the table. Our Getting Cheesy With It selection is designed exactly for that:a ready‑to‑open box of Northumberland favourites that turns any sunny afternoon into an effortless feast.
Curated for grazing, gifting, and easy entertaining, this online‑exclusive box (£28) brings together four of our most-loved cheeses, two artisan oatcakes, and a smoky, summer-perfect chutney. Whether you’re heading out for a picnic, hosting friends in the garden, or simply treating yourself, it’s the kind of box that makes life taste better.
A celebration of local flavour and small-batch craft.
Original - Our classic cheese:creamy, mellow, and endlessly versatile.
Nettle - A fresh, herbaceous favourite with a gentle lift from added nettles.
Chesterwood - A gently oak-smoked goats' cheese witha sweet, smooth, delicately smoky finish.
Cragside - A golden double Gloucester with chive and onions, perfect for pairing with something bold.
To accompany the cheese:
Northumbrian Pantry Smoky Tomato & Chilli Chutney - Sweet, smoky, and lightly spiced; the flavour of summer in a jar.
Stockans Orkney Thin Oatcakes - Crisp, light, and ideal for layering.
Maclean’s Scottish Seaweed & Black Pepper Oatcakes - Savoury, aromatic, and a brilliant match for Cragside.
This selection is built for relaxed, unfussy eating. Lay everything out on a board, add fresh tomatoes, berries, or a handful of nuts, and you’ve got a grazing spread that feels generous without any effort. The chutney brings warmth and sweetness, the oatcakes add crunch, and the cheeses do what they do best - shine.
It’s also a perfect picnic companion. The cheeses travel well, the chutney is picnic-proof, and the oatcakes won’t crumble in your bag. Just add sunshine.
If you’re looking for a summer birthday present, a thank-you gift, or something special for a host, this box hits the sweet spot. It’s personal, local, and delicious - and because it’s curated, it feels like a gift with intention rather than a last-minute grab.
Pair with a chilled white wine, a light rosé, or even a crisp cider. Add olives, charcuterie, or fresh bread if you want to stretch it further. It’s the kind of box that makes hosting feel effortless.
The Getting Cheesy With It selection is online-only, with the option to click and collect from the dairy - ideal if you’re passing by or planning a visit to the Cheese Loft Café.
