Restaurant-quality dining in your estate
I cook in country houses and honey-stone cottages around Chipping Campden, Broadway, Stow-on-the-Wold, Burford, Bibury and Tetbury. House-party weekends, Sunday lunches by the fire and long tasting dinners for family and friends.
The Cotswolds give me Cotswold lamb, Gloucestershire Old Spot pork, Single and Double Gloucester cheese and asparagus from the Vale of Evesham in May and June. Autumn and winter bring partridge, pheasant and venison, and the hedgerows give wild garlic, elderflower, sloes and blackberries. I cook over fire and with ferments, so classic country food feels lighter and more modern.
I have spent a decade in Michelin-starred kitchens, as Sous Chef of R&D in the Noma group and Head Chef at Kokkeriet, and I bring that standard to every table I cook for. My story.

Private chef in the Cotswolds: good to know
Can you cook for a full house-party weekend?
Yes. I can cook from Friday supper to Sunday lunch, including a proper roast and a lighter tasting dinner on Saturday.
Do you cook game in season?
Yes. From autumn to early winter I love cooking local partridge, pheasant and venison over fire.
Can we forage with you in the countryside?
Yes. In spring and autumn I can take you out for wild garlic, elderflower, berries or mushrooms where foraging is allowed, then cook what we find.
Getting married in the Cotswolds?
I cook weddings at stone barns, country house gardens and marquees in the Cotswold hills, from an intimate dinner to 500 guests. See wedding catering in the Cotswolds.
