Cookery Courses to inspire, not intimidate
Cookery Classes for Everyone!
Our small cookery school classes with a maximum of 6-8 students will inspire those of you who want to learn to cook or increase their repertoire. The ethos for our cooking days is to reflect the seasonal produce that is available, therefore each class has a different menu. Most one day classes will include starter/soup, 2 to 3 main courses, dessert and baking.
Each class includes demonstrations and plenty of hands on experience. But above all they aim to be confidence building and fun!
Gift vouchers are available for all our cookery courses. You can purchase a Surrey Hills navy cotton apron for £10 to go alongside the voucher if you wish.

"I really enjoyed the 2 days and took away much more from the experience than I expected. I have been practicing some of the dishes at home, my brothers and sister are very impressed. I especially like the fact that the dishes are so adaptable and of course minimal washing up is always a good thing. Long may the course continue." Madeleine
