About Huntley’s

Huntley’s Owner and Managing Director Eddie Cowpe and his family have been farming in Samlesbury for over 800 years.

After the 2001 foot-and-mouth crisis, with the farming industry at its knees, Eddie knew that something had to be done to transform the business.

To supplement Huntley’s existing arable and livestock farming, Eddie built a 750 sq ft farm shop selling milk, home-made ice cream and meat to the general public.

Despite the risks, Eddie’s tenacity and vision saw that Huntley’s is now the thriving business it is. The Main Shop now boasts a successful restaurant, over 70 flavours of ice-cream, homemade cakes and more!

In addition to its loyal customer base, which sees visitors travel from far and wide, Huntley’s has earned lots of media and industry accolades.

From picking up the 2005 East Lancashire Retailer of the Year award to being celebrated as one of Rick Stein’s Food Heroes, Huntley’s is proud to be investing in local produce and delivering a high quality and personable service for you day in-day out.
