Stay, cook, eat, or create..

Would you like a private woodfired cookery course experience just for you and your family, friends or colleagues? Join us to learn to make the best slow fermented pizzas with the finest ingredients or gain confidence in creating an Italian or Persian feast for a special occasion. Not only will you learn, but you'll eat delicious food and be well looked after with locally sourced organic drinks. 

 

At The Bakehouse, we use organic and locally sourced foods because it matters to us & we know it matters to you. As we specialise in private group booking, why not come with your partner, family, friends or  colleagues for a birthday treat, unique party or celebration? Our friendly, private cookery classes for up to 8 people are suitable for everyone from absolute beginners & give you the opportunity to learn something new & do something different, enjoyable & creative in a beautiful environment.

We use our brilliant Gozney wood oven to make delicious food with you which you can enjoy over a glass or two of organic wine or a Luscombe elderflower fizz. All our recipes can be made at home in conventional ovens too!

With a minimum group size of 2 for our pizza course & 4 on other courses & a maximum of 8, we offer a free place to the organiser for groups of at least 6 people. Contact Emma to enquire or book a date for your own group- allow 4 hours for cooking & eating on the pizza course & all day for the other courses. 

Perhaps you'd like to treat someone to a course as a really unique gift experience?

“I felt so relaxed- it was a perfect day!I shared a wonderful morning with good friends today making pizza, focaccia & chocolate & hazelnut meringues. Emma & Kevin were extremely welcoming & great tutors...we all sat down together to eat pizzas we'd made- it was like a big family lunch.”
