Follow in the footsteps of some of the country’s celebrity chefs by visiting The New Forest.
Chef James Martin has a lengthy history on the television with various food shows. At the age of 22 he worked in Chewton Glen Hotel, in The New Forest as a pastry chef. Today, he is still involved in the kitchen at this luxury hotel plus you can learn from him yourself by booking onto one of The Kitchen’s (Chewton Glen’s cookery school’s) workshops where you can not only watch James produce some eye-catching dishes but then recreate them under his supervision.
At Lime Wood, in Lyndhurst, celebrity chefs Angela Hartnett and Luke Holder do the cooking, pulling together both of their much admired signature styles, to create ‘Hartnett Holder & Co’, the hotel’s relaxed Italian restaurant. Angela is one of the most high-profile female chefs in the restaurant world and formerly worked under Gordon Ramsay at Aubergine. Both Angela and Luke have worked in Michelin-starred restaurants prior to coming to Lime Wood. Fancy following in their footsteps? There is also an on-site cookery school where you can learn cookery skills from the basics, through to more technical cooking.
