Food & Drink

Visit the home of Kent's favourite ice cream.  Solley’s has been producing delicious real dairy ice cream on the family farm for over three decades, using Channel Island milk & cream.

With over 20 flavours to choose from, pick your favourites to enjoy hand scooped in a cone, or pick up a tub or two to take home. For those who just can’t choose, our famous Solley’s Super Bowl includes 12 scoops of ice cream and is perfect for sharing. Breakfast, light lunches and snacks are also available, made fresh on site, along with hot & cold drinks.

Explore the farm on our marked farm trail, then take a tractor ride (weather dependent and selected days).  The Pub at Solley's, our on site pub, is open throughout the year, with events such as live music nights, themed nights, pub quizzes and more.

Whether incorporating a visit to Solley’s with a day visiting local attractions, wanting to spend a few hours walking in the Kent countryside, or looking for somewhere to stay overnight before heading to the continent, the farm is conveniently located just 20 minutes from Dover, within easy reach of the port, Dover and Deal Castles and many other attractions. We also have a small campsite at the heart of the farm which can accommodate caravans, camper vans & tents.

Please check our website for the latest updates on opening times & visiting Solley's Ice Cream Parlour and The Pub at Solley's.

The Isle of Sheppey and Faversham - Where the wild coast begins

There is nowhere quite like The Isle of Sheppey and Faversham. Wild marshes stretch to the horizon. Seals haul out on mudflats within sight of the shore. The beaches are long, sweeping and blissfully quiet; the skies enormous.
