Food & Wine

Cook, eat, drink

Do you want to learn to make an authentic Boeuf Bourgignon or produce a perfect Tarte Tatin? Do you wish you could bone a chicken without being accused of knife crime? Have you always wanted to know more about wine than just what you like: how do you tell a Bordeaux from a Burgundy or a Cognac from a Calvados and just what is 'terroir' exactly?

Get your apron on and grab the corkscrew, it's time to book one of our luscious courses for food and wine lovers. Learn cuisine with confidence from our passionate professionals, from the selection of ingredients, the combination of flavour and texture to the presentation of dishes guaranteed to wow your family and friends.

Let our experts guide you through the mysteries of wine and spirit production from grapevine to glass. From a half day to a holiday course: the choice is yours.
