The Final Chapter of

Manor Farm Cookery School

After the wonderful years of sharing a love of food, and teaching so many different aged students (including some of my former Nursery School pupils!), I have now made the big decision to retire and so announce that Manor Farm Cookery School will be closing in the New Year. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has supported the school over the years.

While we are sad to say goodbye, there is still time to enjoy what we do best and experience the creativity and fun that has made Manor Farm Cookery School such a special place. Our final courses are running over the coming months, so this is your last chance to book a course.

In line with this closure, we will no longer be selling gift vouchers, and we would urge any of you who have not used your Gift Vouchers yet to book into the last remaining courses.

Our fantastic in-house tutor, Andrea Wallace, is available for one-to-one lessons and small-group sessions. To enquire, email andi_wallace@hotmail.com.

working protocolS

We are very keen that your time at the Cookery School is a fun and informative experience. We have always sought to maximise practical learning and these are our working protocols:

- The ingredients you need will be at your work station, pre-weighed and ready to go

- Students eat together in the dining room some of what they have cooked, or you may prefer to bring containers and take your meal home

Cookery & learning

is our passion

Founded by owner Diana Thompson, Manor Farm Cookery School is a rural enterprise dedicated to hosting and facilitating learning and skills with food.

Diana trained at the Tante Marie Cookery School and ran her own cooking business, ‘Frozen Assets’, cooking for private individuals, directors’ lunches and corporate events.

For 25 years, she ran a Montessori Nursery School, and is now enjoying welcoming old pupils back to the school to learn cookery.
