Confident Cooking

Cookery Course

Caroline Yates runs her Confident Cooking courses from the kitchen of her manor farmhouse, on the edge of Salisbury Plain. There are a number of different courses to appeal to all levels of expertise, from hands-on cookery or demonstrations for those pressed for time to men-only, children-only and residential weekend courses. These are run in the style of a country house party – the only difference being that you, the guest, are cooking.

 Caroline grows her own herbs and vegetables for use in the courses. All other ingredients are seasonal and locally reared, grown or produced, so recipes and techniques change depending on the time of year you book in.

If you want to take a non-cooking partner along, they’d be welcome. There’s plenty for them to do in the area from a brisk walk on the Plain to a leisurely saunter around nearby Salisbury and Bath.
