Become an artisan home cheesemaker and experience the ageless craft of making cheese.

The day cheese course is usually a demonstration of four different cheeses - Cheddar, Mascarpone, Feta and Ricotta or Gouda, Camembert, Liptour and Quark. The day begins at 10am and I work through from the milk to the cheese, stopping for a light lunch of cheese and biscuits, then ending the demonstration around 3pm. Afterwards there is time to purchase any specialised cheese making equipment that you may require.

The evening session is a concise introduction and demonstration of "Mozzarellia" followed by a cheese tasting and an accompanying glass of wine. These evenings are usually by appointment, in people's homes or special functions, they are informative and a great social event.
