Country House Cookery

Programme for 2008 / 2009

Country House Cookery hands on classes have been created for people to learn, have fun and enjoy great food and wine. We endeavour to source the finest ingredients and local produce, using our own organic beef and lamb from Longhorn Cattle and Swaledale Sheep reared here at Fermyn Woods Hall in 350 acre park.

In addition to the calendar below, we are able to offer specially organised days with a choice of themes - including Men in the Kitchen - for individual groups of friends, for school gourmet clubs and for corporate training so please do get in touch. Cookery days begin at 10.00am for 10.30 with welcoming coffee and finish around 4.00pm. Prices are fully inclusive of refreshments throughout the day, lunch with wine, all cooking ingredients and a folder brim-full of delicious recipes and chef’s tips.

Gift vouchers are available for all Country House Cookery days.
