The Kent Cookery School is based deep in the heart of Kent, in the picturesque setting of the Mersham-le-Hatch Estate, bordering the 190-acre deer park and 1000-year-old woodland.
Walk through the cobbled courtyard and discover an idyllic countryside haven.
The school was the first purpose built cookery school in Kent. Established in early 2011 and makes use of the old listed barn.
When the school was designed we wanted students to feel welcome and feel at home, we want all our visitors to relax and enjoy themselves during their time with us. You will not find the cold clinical stainless steel of a professional kitchen, instead, you will find rustic oak beams, modern equipment and friendly chef/tutors.
