"Very generously sized ice creams! Lovely friendly lady who makes these ice creams at home nearby. Choice of chocolate, caramel, toffee apple, raspberry swirl, Jaffa cake, peach and ginger, mango etc. Went for a two-scoop of double chocolate and jaffa cake and it’s the biggest ice cream I’ve ever had. The chocolate was almost like Betty Crocker’s devil’s food icing it was so rich. Only thing missing was a choice of peanut butter ice cream, but no one this side of the pond seems to get peanut butter chocolate combo. There’s also the option to have a 7 scoop polystyrene container as a to-go option. Apparently this is safe for 1-2 hour journey. Great way to eat ice cream at home. Will come back next time we’re in the area."

"We finished off our wonderful visit to Holy Island with visit to Pilgrims Gelateria. We had milkshakes which were absolutely delicious. Made from your choice of ice cream with the addition of milk. It was only when I saw oat milk being added that I learnt that all the ice cream is vegan, not that you would ever know the difference. I had the salted vanilla Lovely shop and great service well worth a visit"

"The best chocolate caramel fudge gelato I've ever tasted. Tastes like pure cacao. It's also vegan! Sadly I forgot to take a photo as I was too busy enjoying my cone."

"I was surprised and delighted that when we asked the staff whether they had any vegan options that in fact, all their gelato is vegan friendly as is their range of baked goods. Delicious ice cream (vegan and non-vegan members of my family all agreed) and friendly staff. Highly recommended!"

"We saw people walking around the island with these and had to find it to try one for ourselves as they looked delicious. And they were. The price is reasonable for what you get, there are plenty of flavours and the staff are brilliant. Highly recommend this place if you are visiting Holy Island."

"Came across this fab place and decided to step in, to see what they had. An extensive range of flavours from Jaffa cake and raspberry, to millionaire's shortbread and more! I decided to go with the toffee apple, which was a delightful flavour! The ladies there were extremely pleasant and made buying from them, an absolute pleasure! Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a treat!"

"What a fabulous ice cream shop on Holy (Lindisfarne) Island. An amazing range of very well presented flavours of ice cream, (see the pictures) served by incredibly pleasant and supportive staff too. If you're unsure whether to order a flavour, then a sample spoon is offered to taste An all round great experience and one not to miss when you visit the Island"
