Manor Farm Cookery School

Set on a beautiful farm in the lush, green countryside, Manor Farm is run by Diana Thompson who has a wealth of cooking experience and has also trained at the Tante Marie Culinary Academy.

As well as this, she’s an expert at creating fabulous dishes from store cupboard and left-over ingredients so feel free to pick her foodie brain. Whether you’ve recently found a new passion for cooking or have been cooking for years, the school offers a range of brilliant classes for all food-lovers – everything from dinner-party essentials to bread making. You can even learn to perfect a new cuisine by booking into a Thai or Japanese class plus, there’s also plenty of classes for kids and teenagers to get stuck into even during the school holidays.

Whether you’re local to Leicestershire or coming from further afield, you can make a weekend of it and book onto a lunchtime/evening activity including croquet, clay pigeon shooting, table tennis, pilates and more.
