Kym Marsh visits "world's largest ice cream shop" with family and tries 50 flavours

TV favourite Kym Marsh recently unveiled an ice cream tattoo on her arm - a sweet tribute to her dad and his love of the sweet treat. So where better for Kym and her family to head for a day out than a place that hails itself "The world's largest ice cream shop"?

Kym and her family headed out to The Ice Cream Farm in Cheshire which boasts a giant ice cream parlour with some 50 flavours on offer every day. And Kym reckoned that between her and her family they tried almost ALL of them.

Former Coronation Street star Kym headed to the ice cream farm, at Tattenhall in the Cheshire countryside, alongside her dad Dave, who is battling incurable cancer. She recently shared images of her new ice cream tattoo with fans on Instagram, as a nod to her dad Dave's love for the dessert ever since his cancer diagnosis.

The Cheshire visitor attraction is also famous for its vast outdoor play area for kids, which was perfect for Kym to take her grandchildren to. The ice cream farm is so big, that it even now boasts a "drive through" area for those who need a more urgent cone fix than waiting in the parlour.

Kym said on her Instagram post: "Well what an amazing family day we had Sunday we visited @theicecreamfarm and it did not disappoint, the lovely staff introduced us to over 50 different flavours of ice cream and we got to try nearly all of them!

"As my dad @daveyboy113 is such an ice cream fan, he was in his element!! Thank you again to the lovely girls that looked after us and made sure all our ice cream needs were met, this was such a good day out for both adults and kids, we made lots of memories and we will most definitely be returning."

The Ice Cream replied in the comments to say: "We are so glad @daveyboy113 and the rest of your family enjoyed your visit to The World’s Largest Ice Cream Shop. It was our pleasure to host you and help you make precious family memories."

Kym last month shared a video of the special moment that she unveiled her tattoo tribute to her dad. She has had a large ice cream cone with two scoops on top inked on to her forearm.

Kym said at the time: "So…..I’ve had a new tattoo for my dad!!! Since his incurable cancer diagnosis he has been obsessed with ice cream! He literally has one every day!

"So I got an ice cream on the inside of my forearm for him to remind me of my wonderful dad, Every time I look at it!! He’s the best ever! Love you dad @daveyboy113."
