OUR VARIETIES
We have many varieties of apples and pears, including some delicious old fashioned varieties you may not have tasted for years.
​
All our varieties are subject to seasonal availability and our own high quality standards. We will never buy in product from elsewhere to sell.
We grow everything here on our own orchard.

APPLES
Available now:
​
Peasgood non Such - our fabulous big cooking apples.
Royal Gala - very sweet and delicious this season.

​
Still to come:
Jonagold - a big apple with a bit of acid and a bit of sweet.
Lord Wolseley - a slightly tart cooker that collapses at the sight of a pot.
Braeburn - like us they have enjoyed that extra sunshine this season.
Candy - we know you look forward to these late-pick sweeties.
Granny Smith - no explanation needed here. Good eating or cooking.

​PEARS
Available now:
​
Red Bartlett (a bon Chretien with a red skin) - only smaller fruit remains.
Worden Seckel - these little pears are just the sweetest thing you've ever tasted!
Russetted Comice - unique to Peelview - fantastic taste for immediate eating.
Doyenne du Comice - our all-time favourite - these will need a few days in the fruit bowl if you like them soft and juicy. (Pears have to be picked firm)
Taylors' Gold - Doyenne du Comice's fully russetted sister - these will need a few days in the fruit bowl if you like them very soft and juicy. (Pears are picked firm)
Beurre Bosc - great either crunchy or soft - whichever you prefer.
​
Still to Come:
​
Winter Cole - an "oldie" but still a "goodie"
Winter Nelis - very hard to tell the difference from Winter Cole.
​
Sold out:
William bon Chretien (Bartlett) - a great bottler but for eating fresh as well
Krispie (Kiddipack only) - our pear/nashi cross
