The Kitchen at Chewton Glen, Milford-on-Sea, Hampshire
For the ultimate gourmet escape, spend the day at Chewton Glen’s new cookery school then, check in for the night and enjoy a relaxing spa break, too.

Chewton Glen’s newly-opened cookery school is firmly on my foodie bucket list.
When it comes to choosing a cookery break in the UK, it’s fair to say that this world-class country house hotel has got a finger in every pie. You can learn new cookery skills, pick your herbs from the kitchen garden and eat in the cookery school’s own restaurant.
The cherry on top? After a busy day in the kitchen, relax in the hotel’s spa and then check in for a peaceful night in the forest. Foodie breaks don’t get much better than this.
