Delivery
Our FAST FREE delivery means you can be planting next week.
We dispatch once a week in the summer and then delivery will take 3-4 days. Prices include UK delivery with very few exceptions.
For the vast majority of orders, we do not charge a surcharge for Scottish Highlands and Islands and other remote areas. However, we reserve the right to contact you if we can't get a viable rate. Unfortunately, for large or extremely remote orders, it is likely that we will need to pass on some haulage charge. Please see FAQ for full details
For Isle of Man and the Channel Islands please see FAQ for details
If you wish to pick up we offer a 15% discount. By default, this option will only appear for local postcodes. If yours doesn’t appear, use our postcode DD3 0QN in the “Deliver to Address”. You need to select local pick up and also put code Pickup in the coupon box. Also to help us, put “pick up” in the “deliver to address”. Note that your order may still take a day or two to organise and we will contact you when your order is ready. We operate on a working farm with machinery, vehicles and livestock and so please keep children and pets inside your car when picking up. This is only available for orders up to £50 – if you wish to pick up a larger order, please contact us prior to ordering.
We are reluctantly forced to close our online shop to customers in the EU and Northern Ireland. 17/12/20 saw the last order come in from France. Full statement and further information here.
If we get a parcel returned to us due to wrong details we will charge you postage to re-send. Please check the details on your confirmation note and inform us immediately of any mistakes. Small typos are easy to do!

If you want a specific week, let us know at checkout box and we will do our best to send it out then. We recommend that you get your potatoes in plenty of time to chit. If you plan to plant in March, we would suggest delivery in late January/February to give 4-6 weeks chitting, if you plan to plant in April, a late February/March date would suit. OVER 98% success rate last year! (not available for late season potatoes)
All products ordered will be sent together in the same delivery. If you require us to split the delivery please do two orders. Bulk discounts are only available for the same order.
To ensure your order arrives in the best possible condition, deliveries will be made as soon as all the varieties on your order are available, using an appropriate courier or postal service.
If you choose to pay by BACS or cheque we will not begin to process your order out until your payment has been received and cleared. This could take a few days and may not be checked each day.
During times of frost or low temperatures deliveries will be held back until more favourable conditions prevail.
Some deliveries may be delayed if we have to re- stock our nets, we will try to keep you informed of any delays.

Not sure why everyone raves about this potato. At one time, it was the most cultivated potato in the USA. So certainly not a spcialist potato in any way. It is good, as it made a very, very amazing mash topping to a fish pie that we made. But that had some seasoning in it. By itself, I find this potato to be just average in taste. And a bit gluey in texture. A couple of times, I decided to try and make hash browns with it the traditional way, like I remembered eating in the USA. I failed miserably. Yukon Gold is a watery, gluey potato, so the hash browns didn’t crisp up, and the end result was likely to bung me up. I still give it 3 stars, because the mash is excellent, and there are ways of cooking it that it is suitable for. Its just very picky in how you can successfully use it.
I also find it to be pickier than some varieties to grow. Qutie susceptible to wireworm. And if you use too much manure, it won’t grow compared to varieties. Make sure its grown in ideal conditions. Loose, very well draining soil.
Its pickiness is why its declined in commercial cultivation in the USA. Its still grown due to its fame and customer demand, but if farmers can avoid it, they do.

Here’s my dilemma – to write a well deserved 5 * review so that everyone gets to know about how good Yukon Gold potatoes are or to keep quiet so that we get to have Yukon Golds all to ourselves!! These really are a fantastic potato – round in shape with a sandy looking blemish free skin, butter-coloured inside and a terrific taste. And The Potato House is great to deal with too (especially Amy) so you just can’t lose!
