eckington manor cookery school
Worcestershire
Our small, friendly team all share the same passion and desire to ensure our
guests have a wonderful time during their visit. Judy Gardner, the founder of
the school, believes that life doesn’t get much better than good food in a
relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere. She has spent her life working in the food
industry – initially founding Garner’s Foods which specialised in quality
pickles and dressings. She perfected all of the recipes herself, building a
brand through the 90s which became synonymous with ‘the best’ amongst retailers
and consumers alike. Her next venture was the acclaimed Belle House restaurant
in Pershore where modern dishes and relaxed surroundings have proven to be a
winning combination. In 2004, Judy bought Manor Farm in Eckington, with the aim
of sharing her vision of modern entertaining with everyone. Her ambition was to
create a cookery school that allowed guests to learn all sorts of skills by
offering outstanding facilities set in a beautiful location but without losing a
sense of fun.
