Return & Refund Policy

At Strathearn Cheese we want you to be delighted with your order. Our cheeses are handmade and perishable, so please read the following carefully.

Perishable Goods

Damaged or Incorrect Orders

If your order arrives damaged, or you receive the wrong items, please contact us within 24 hours of delivery. Email us at [your email address] with your order number and, if possible, a photograph of the problem. We will arrange a replacement or refund.

Quality Concerns

If you believe there is a quality issue with your cheese, please get in touch within 24 hours of delivery. We may ask for a description or photo to help us investigate. If the product is found to be faulty, we will offer a refund or replacement.

Cancellations

Orders may be cancelled up to 24 hours before dispatch. Once your cheese has been sent, cancellations are not possible.

Refunds

Refunds will be made to the original payment method within 7 working days of agreement.
