The Woodspeen Restaurant & Cookery School

One of the joys of being a chef is sharing your knowledge and passion with other food lovers, whether they’re amateurs or aspiring chefs.

They run a wide range of courses, from cooking the perfect steak to baking the perfect sourdough.

And they host one-off demonstrations, wine tastings, seasonal celebrations and private events in their cookery school kitchen, throughout the year.  

Their cookery school kitchen also serves as the backdrop for their kitchen table private lunches or dinners – perfect for intimate business dinners, team-building exercises, birthdays, anniversaries or other personal milestones.

All their courses are run by Peter Eaton, or one of their other senior chefs. 

They have all been with them for years, and each has an encyclopaedic knowledge of food. 

They are also experienced teachers, who know how to put people at ease.

As in their restaurant, they use seasonal, local or homegrown produce wherever they can. In fact, their cookery school overlooks their vegetable garden, where you might even pick your own ingredients. 

They keep their class sizes small, to give everyone plenty of one-on-one time and hands-on advice. 

They do all of the prep work in advance, so you’re free to focus on the cooking. 

They’ll give you course notes and recipes to take home with you, but they also encourage you to ask questions and make your own notes. 

Above all, they hope you’ll leave feeling energised, with a headful of ideas and a sense of achievement.

Their cookery school is also available for private hire for your own events, for business or pleasure.
