Nigel holds these exclusive classes in his very own kitchen so you can enjoy the pleasure of cooking in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. All the equipment we use is similar to what you will find in domestic kitchens up and down the country so whatever you learn you can recreate in your own home.
We limit our class size to a maximum of 4 so it doesn’t matter whether you’re an accomplished cook or can only switch on a kettle, we have the time to teach everyone some new skills and give you the individual attention you deserve.
All our courses, whether it be a half day session or a full day course with lunch, are fully hands-on and at the end of the class you can take your dishes to enjoy at home.
The Academy is tucked away in a small North Lincolnshire village called Goxhill, approximately 5 miles from the Humber Bridge. It’s easily accessible by car, roughly an hours’ drive from Lincoln, Leeds, York and Sheffield. You can also reach us by train, our nearest mainline station is Barnetby and we can offer a collection and return service to the station if you’d rather not drive.
HALF DAY COURSES
Classes start at 9.30am and are an excellent way to try new ideas and dishes under Nigel’s expert tuition. They are fully hands-on and include the loan of an Academy apron, refreshments, all ingredients, recipe booklet and suitable containers to take home your work. The class finishes at 1.00pm.
ONE DAY COURSES
There is lots of choice here with a variety of classes to choose from. Your day starts at 10.00am with coffee and an introduction to the days recipes. You’ll enjoy refreshments throughout the day and a delicious lunch with wine prepared for you by Nigel. These are fully hands-on courses and include a recipe booklet, suitable containers to take home your work and an Academy apron which is yours to keep.
OFF-SITE CLASSES
We are able to offer groups of 4 or more the opportunity to enjoy an Academy Day in your own home or business. You can choose one of our current classes or we can tailor one to your own requirements. As we bring all ingredients and equipment with us all you need to provide is a suitable kitchen large enough to accommodate your group. If you have any doubts about the suitability of your premises or have any special requirements just let us know and we will be pleased to advise you on how we can help.
We have the equipment to provide a first class cookery school experience even with very limited facilities. The cost of these courses will be the one day course cost per person plus travel expenses. (If your premises need essential kitchen facilities these will be charged separately.)
