A PLACE WORTH KNOWING

Fire cooking and long tables in the woods

Learn to cook over fire or gather for a woodland feast. High Grange pairs outdoor cooking with the pleasure of sitting down to share what has been made.

High Grange is a reason to make a plan and follow the lanes into the Blackdown Hills. Luke and Sara’s woodland venue revolves around fire: hands-on schools explore outdoor cooking, while feast nights and more casual suppers put the emphasis on eating together. The setting is part of the experience, with trees, shelter and generous shared tables rather than a conventional restaurant room. Choose the format that suits your day, then check its location and date carefully, as some events take place elsewhere. Pack layers and sturdy shoes; this is an outdoor experience even when the forecast is less than perfect.

The lovely little details

  • Woodland fire cookery schools and shared feasts.
  • Advance booking for dated experiences.
  • Rural site with uneven grass and gravel.
