Red Lodge Cooking Courses

Basic ingredients: A newly opened venture by experienced chef Peter Bunting, Red Lodge offers half or full-day cookery courses in a converted barn and shoot lodge behind a walnut orchard in rural Norfolk. There are a number of hands-on options, from Aga and slow cooking to Cajun and sausage making and you’ll spend your time gaining tips and tricks from the well-travelled and passionate Bunting.  An overnight package includes luxury accommodation, evening meal and breakfast. Half-day courses cost £55 per person and full-day courses cost £95.

They say: Whether you can’t boil and egg or are a food enthusiast looking to cook dinner for lots of people, you are sure to find a class to suit you and should leave feeling confident and inspired.

We say: This is a welcome addition to the quiet cookery school scene in Norfolk with some particularly interesting artisan courses on offer. It is certainly the only place for many miles offering Cajun cookery lessons.
