food is precious

At the Natural Cookery School, we’re passionate about cooking delicious, wholesome and inspiring plant-based, food with locally sourced and organic ingredients – which Chef Erin Baker’s been doing for 25 years.

We host intimate classes in our state-of-the-art professional kitchen in the heart of the Cotswold town of Nailsworth, and specialise in showing everyone who visits – how to become a natural in the kitchen.

Christmas Bites

Christmas is coming and we have some delicious offerings, including festive nibbles, Christmas mains and a gorgeous cashew cheese selection, available for collection on 23rd December.

Cookery Classes

Natural Cookery School recipes are inspired by the season. Classes are a combination of hands-on and demonstration, with plenty of added tips and knife skills. You will work in small groups in our teaching kitchen, creating the recipes and tasting along the way.
