GODSELLS CHEESE

Liz Godsell and her ‘cheese team’, including her husband Bryan, are behind the range of award-winning, hand-made cheeses created at Church Farm in Leonard Stanley. Each cheese has a story to tell as they are named after local areas or local legends. The Three Virgins, the Village Gossip and the Cockadilly Chilli sit alongside more recognisable varieties such as single and double Gloucester and a full-flavoured waxed cheddar in Godsell’s cheese selection.

One of their most popular cheeses is the award-winning Traditional Single Gloucester. This cheese has a P.D.O. – Protected Designated Origin, meaning it can only be made in Gloucestershire with milk from the rare breed Gloucester Cattle. There are five well-loved Gloucester cows at Godsell’s farm, who produce the milk to make this ancient cheese, which is traditionally matured and cloth-bound.

Their award-winning Traditional Double Gloucester is more fruity in flavour with a more fudgy-like texture than its single brother. Godsell’s own cheddar, the Leonard Stanley, won a gold at the World Cheese Awards and is traditionally matured for at least seven months, and cloth bound, creating a real depth of taste that continues minutes after being eaten.
