Eating well has a profound effect on how we feel and how our brains and bodies function. This course explores the relationship between good nutrition and our wellbeing, examining which foods can help us to function at our best.

We will look at the roles of fat, protein, vegetables, grains and sugar in our diets and how best to create delicious meals and recipes which will help you feel balanced and well.

Designed in collaboration with our resident nutritionist Rhaya Jordan, this course will include plenty of expert advice on how to include the vital nutrients in your eating and cooking at home. Throughout the day you will enjoy recipe demonstrations and guided hands-on cookery sessions to create delicious, nourishing dishes, using the freshest ingredients in season from our organic farm and Market Garden. As you arrive, we will introduce you to your day over freshly made tea and coffee before you enjoy a series of demonstrations and guided hands-on cookery sessions, to create your own dishes.

Easter is always a special time of year at Daylesford, join us for this hands-on course and celebrate Easter time as we create a spring feast and delicious treats to mark the end of Lent.

Our Cookery School Team will guide you through a series of recipes over the course of the day, equipping you with the confidence to create a wonderful family meal on Easter Sunday or for entertaining guests at a dinner party over the bank holiday weekend. We will cover elegant starters, a beautifully prepared roast lamb, with simple yet effective accompaniments and a delicious dessert to celebrate this wonderful time of year in style. 

On arrival, we will introduce you to your day over freshly made tea and coffee, before you enjoy a series of demonstrations and guided hands-on cookery sessions, to create your own dishes. Throughout the day you will have the chance to sit down around our central island to eat everything you make, accompanied by a glass or two of Prosecco.

Nothing enlivens the senses like a curry night. Join us in the Cookery School for a very special evening of feasting, inspired by fragrant spices and classic Indian dishes.

You will be able to relax and enjoy a selection of curries prepared by our tutors that showcase the delicious organic ingredients grown and produced at Daylesford. As the meal comes together, our tutors will talk guests through mastering the art of balancing spices and key techniques to inspire your own cooking, before everyone shares a feast of curries, infused rice dishes and plenty of colourful sides and freshly made condiments.

With a relaxed setting, a wide variety of delicious food and drinks from our cellars, this dining evening is the perfect way to unwind at the end of a busy week. Our Curry Nights make for a wonderfully alternative way to spend the evening dining with friends and loved ones or as a relaxed Friday night treat.
