We can design a package to suit you, for example:-
Smaller groups (15 people)can participate in ‘hands-on’ cookery where, under the instruction of our cookery tutors they can cook the recipes of choice from scratch. They then get to relax and enjoy the fruits of their labour in our ‘garden room’ with a glass of wine.
Or we can run a ‘demo & dine’ session for a slightly larger group of 20 people where the group watch a series of cookery demonstrations with tastings of all food prepared, followed by lunch and a glass of wine.
