The price of this course may vary. Please use the drop down menu to find dates and prices.


Our wood fired oven has become an integral part of our kitchen. We not only use if for baking artisan breads, but also for roasting our meat, grilling our fish.

Because our results have been so fantastic, we wanted to show you how to build your own. Be prepared to work hard, with this very interactive course, as you dig the mud, mould the clay, and knead the dough.

The course begins at 10am taking you on a short walk to find and dig local clay. Then everyone will get their feet dirty mixing the muck. By lunchtime the oven will be built.

We will then break for a seasonal lunch, including the traditional wood fired pizzas you have just baked in the oven.

The afternoon will be spent making dough, shaping loaves and baking bread.

You will receive an info pack with diagrams and explanations of how wood-fired ovens work; how to build one and how to bake bread in it. We will also include all the recipes from the day.

The day will end around 5pm with loaves for everyone to take home.

Bring wellies and waterproofs, and wear warm old clothes.

Timings: 10.00am to 5.00pm

Hugh availability: Please note - Hugh will not be at this event

Recommended Age: We would advise that this course is only really suitable for 10yrs of age and upwards. Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult. We put these guidelines for the safety, comfort and enjoyment of all our guests.
