CLASSES, FAMILIES AND TEAM BUILDING Private
Classes:
If
you want to spend a day or more cooking with family or friends in a relaxing atmosphere
with expert tuition, Manna from Devon is the ideal place. Whether you are a hen
party, a book club, a college reunion, or just friends wanting to learn together,
we can create a class to fit your exact requirements. Just call or email and we'll
start planning. Prices depend on numbers and the menu chosen but start from around
£75 per person. |
|
All
workshops will be custom built to suit your ideal needs and can take place here,
at you home or at another venue. Alternatively
combine cooking with another activity :
- A
morning's Fishing on followed by a Fish Cooking Masterclass and supper at the
Cooking School
- A
day cooking then an evening on the River Dart enjoying the food you've cooked
on the Picnic Boat
- A
morning at one of South Devon's award winning Farmers Markets then an afternoon
cooking and eating our purchases.
- A
Fungi Foray or Wild Food Forage around Kingswear then back to the school to cook
anything edible we find along with a selection of other wild mushrooms.
- Slow
Cooking: spend the morning preparing a wonderful, slow-cooked meal; think Beef
Bourguignon, Cassoulet, Porcetta or Lamb Tagine. Then we set off on a Guided Coastal
Walk taking in the dramatic coastline and rolling hills of South Devon . Having
worked up a great appetite return to the Cooking School to sit down to a well
earned feast.

Events and Team Workshops:
David
has worked in training and development for 15 years, and still works as a team
and leadership development consultant to a number of companies. His experience
means that he is intimately aware of the needs and requirements of corporate and
teambuilding events. We can run corporate events for up to 25 people at Fir Mount
House at a very cost effective price.Here are some ideas of how your day might
run, but each event would be tailored to meet your exact requirements:
- A
relaxed morning of demonstrations followed by lunch. A pressure free reward
for a hard working team.
- A
day of hands-on cookery tuition. Learn together as a group, get to know each
other and share a common experience outside the office environment.
- A
challenging day of tasks for your team. We turn the heat up with a series
of challenges for the team, providing expert input along the way. The team will
need to work together, communicate, learn and apply their learning, organise themselves
effectively and demonstrate initiative and resourcefulness. By the end of a full
day the team will have produced a top class dinner which they can then relax and
enjoy in the Fir Mount House dining room.
- Catch
It 'n' Cook It. Half a day in Start Bay on a well appointed fishing boat followed
by half a day at Fir Mount House preparing, cooking and eating your catch
- Wine
and Food Matching. Prepare the finest food, match it with the finest wine
and eat it in the finest company. We will bring in a wine expert who will teach
you how to choose wines to match your meals.
We
are also able to offer off site corporate and Team Events at a location to suit
your group. Recent
