The Cookery School
Home
It is my aim to
tailor-make courses to each group’s individual requirements;
I can
accommodate 4 to 6 people at a time, (up to eight for a group of friends who
don't mind sharing the space and a discount!) and can demonstrate a wide range of
cookery skills, from complete beginners, to accomplished cooks!
I will also
be running courses for men who would like to ‘wow'
the special person in
their life!
The full day course makes a lovely gift, and vouchers are available!
Below are some of the scheduled courses, for the winter-into-spring. Dates for bespoke courses, for groups who wish to cover their own agenda, are still available, including over the Easter holidays.
Short courses are £50, per person. The full day is £125, per person.
Discounts for couples and groups.

Summer Entertaining

Whether it’s ideas for a picnic, or smart foods to impress friends on a lovely day in the garden, you will pick up some great tips so that you can make the most of your time outside, rather than slaving away over a stove this summer!

The Back to Basics Cookery
10 a.m.- 4.30 p.m.
If you don’t know one end of a chicken from another, if the thought of cooking salmon for friends fills you with terror, or you wouldn’t know where to start on baking a cake, come and spend a ‘full-on’ day with me! I will cover a vast array of basic cooking skills in one day, my belief is that everyone can cook; sometimes you just need someone like me to jump-start the Process! There will be a recipe pack to take home. Morning coffee, lunch, and afternoon tea are inclusive. All you need to bring is yourself, everything, including a notepad and pen, is provided.
For anyone who hasn’t met me, do be aware that the courses may over-run!
