ALISON’S BEST ICE CREAM review

Nothing can beat an ice cream stop on top of cliff during a coastal walk, sat on a harbour wall in a Cornish seaside town or sat soaking up the sun on a beautiful beach.

So many locations to choose from but here are a few of my favourites.

First Choice would be at Callestick Farm found just outside Truro near the North Coast so really close to Starlight Barns. The farm is home to 300 cows and makes this famous local ice cream there at the farm. They have a tea room where you can also enjoy this rich creamy ice cream. The grass fed herd help make the ice cream so tasty but they tell us the main reason is the type of cream they turn the milk into - clotted cream! The ice cream is available all over the county but we like to visit the farm.

Second choice would be Swanpool Beach where there is a lovely little café which is the home of quirky ice creams! Enjoy a lovely walk from Falmouth Gylly beach around the path for a pit stop at Swanpool. Order a Hedgehog or Malt Pleaser - they use Callestick ice cream and smother it in clotted cream then top the cone with a variety of extras from jelly babies to Maltesers - not for the faint hearted! Take a pew on the sea wall and enjoy watching the waves. (Car park and toilet facilities are available)
