Elmore Court (courses coming soon)

Elmore Court in Gloucestershire has been the seat of the Guise family for 750 years. It is a distinguished stately home set in thousands of acres of rolling countryside on the banks of the river Severn . As you come up the winding drive having passed through the wrought iron gates, you enter the magnificent entrance hall decked with family portraits and stained glass windows. Dinner in the grandiose family dining room is very special.

Kate ran a trial cookery school at Elmore as part of the Channel 4 documentary Country House Rescue . Most of the bedrooms and the kitchen area are currently being renovated. Regular cookery courses at Elmore are therefore not expected to start until early 2010.
