Our History
-
Award winning speciality...Date: 2018Carron Lodge’s Inglewhite Buffalo cheese goes from strength to strength winning Best Speciality Cheese at the International Cheese Awards in Nantwich. Filming also took place for a prime time TV Show due to be aired in February 2019, featuring an award winning Celebrity Chef and our Buffalo Herd! Once again Carron Lodge passed it’s SALSA Specialist Cheesemakers Association audit and added it’s smokery to the scope, becoming an accredited smokehouse.
-
Fresh curd...Date: 2017With 2 generations of the Rhodes family previously running the business, 2017 saw a fresh face in the form of Tom, Adrians’ son who came into the business as Operations Manager. Tom settled in quickly, looking to push the company towards the future.
(Tom’s the one on the right)
-
New connections and distribution...Date: 2016Carron Lodge Ltd. opened a 4th distribution centre in Wimbledon, to enable greater coverage of the South East along with daily deliveries to wholesalers, independent retailers, hotels, bars and restaurants in the capital.
-
Where the buffalo roam...Date: 2015Due to the closure of the Buffalo milk supplier Carron Lodge decided upon maintaining its own herd of water buffalo to enhance the product range, producing Inglewhite Buffalo, a hard cheddar type cheese and Shipston Blue, a semi -soft blue veined cheese, matured in our cave. Carron Lodge is now one of the major wholesalers and distributors of cheese and associated products throughout the UK.
-
Acquisition and expansion...Date: 2009In June 2009 Carron Lodge Ltd. bought Park View Foods of Market Rasen, Lincolnshire increasing the distribution area to cover East Anglia and the South East of England. In the same year 4 Gold Awards were won at Nantwich International Cheese Show including Best Farmhouse White Cheshire
-
Spreading our wings...Date: 2005In 2005 a second satellite depot was opened to serve the South and Southwest of England in Birdlip. A decision was taken to commence work towards BRC Global Standard for Food Safety.
-
The more the merrier...Date: 2003In 2003 a major building upgrade began in order to improve standards to the BRC Global Standard for Food Safety. Park Head Farm increases size of herd and all cows milk is now sourced exclusively from Park Head Farm’s herd of pedigree Holsteins. Both goat and sheep milk were being sourced from local farms to increase the cheese range.
-
An increase in production...Date: 1988With the help of his wife, Annette, the business grew steadily until 1996 when the business was incorporated and became ‘Carron Lodge.’ Cheese production increased to 170 tonnes and milk now sourced from local farms as well as their own.
-
It all began...Date: 1904…in the early 1900’s when Duillia Rhodes made cheese for her parents on the family farm whilst her brothers worked the land. She married Bob Singleton and this eventually led to ‘Singletons Dairy’ being established. The Rhodes family had lost their cheesemaker but the recipes remained intact until 1988 when Adrian Rhodes, together with his parents revived the art of cheese making on the farm trading as ‘Rhodes Cheese’ supplying the ‘Farmhouse Cheese Makers Association’.

Farmhouse White and Coloured Cheshire
Even though we’re from Lancashire we know a fair bit about making great tasting Cheshire. Master Cheesemaker John Jackson has perfected his multi-award winning recipe over
the years and annually goes head to head with the UK’s best Cheshire makers at the International Cheese Awards in Nantwich, the “spiritual home” of Cheshire cheese.
Tangy, fresh and crumbly our Cheshire pairs well with fruit and and even fruitcake or makes a wonderful “Cheshire Rarebit” with a dash of Lancashire Sauce 😉
