Some recent feedback: "Hi Simon, Since coming on your course my sourdough bread making has gone from strength to strength, and is much in demand by daughters and friends. I learned so much in that one day – certainly worth braving the snow for – and have made bread every week since. I can’t believe how easy and relaxing it is, so many, many thanks for sharing your knowledge, skill and enthusiasm. Best wishes, MP " See terms and conditions of booking.The venue is in the Forest of Dean between Chepstow and Gloucester, at Grange Village, Littledean Road, Newnham on Severn, GL14 1HJ.
