About

Be inspired!... and enhance your culinary skills.

Vaughan’s Cookery School in Devizes, Wiltshire offers a comprehensive range of cookery classes that can be found on our website plus bespoke sessions  for small groups and corporate team building & away days. All are hands-on, inspirational and fun.

The cookery class programme runs from Sept to Easter on mid-week evenings and Saturdays. In the spring and summer, Vaughan’s Kitchen caters for weddings and events so our tutors, who are qualified chefs, are busy helping to make that special day unique.

We are passionate about delivering a 'naturally balanced' style of cuisine that maximises nutrition as well as using seasonal, local produce where possible. Maintaining the ‘balance’ of the planet is also taken seriously and we have a comprehensive waste disposal system which incorporates not only separating as much waste out for recycling, but also collecting food waste and biodegradable items to go to be converted into biomass energy. Most of our pots and packaging are made from plant materials and can be disposed of in this way plus the cookery school endeavours to be single-use-plastic free environment.

Vaughan’s Cookery School classes cover a variety of different topics and, as groups are small (maximum 10) and tutors are well qualified and experienced, those who are less confident in the kitchen can be supported, whilst those who are already competent cooks can be stretched. Popular choices to improve skills in the kitchen are: Speedy Meals; Sustainable Fish cookery; Basic Bread; Sourdough; Knife Skills plus a range of classes that focus on specific styles of cuisine: Moroccan, Indian, Thai, French, Spanish, Italian and many more. 

The Vaughan’s teaching team is led by Peter Vaughan, a highly experienced and award-winning chef with over 30 years working in the catering industry. Peter is a member of the Royal Academy of Culinary Arts.

Here’s what some of Vaughan’s customers said about their cookery classes:

"I came away from the day feeling inspired and ready to reproduce the dishes at home. I recommend the classes to anyone and will definitely be going back for a further course in the future.”

"What a great day! It exceeded my (already high) expectations. Thanks."

"It has been a real treat to be taught by a team that are not only knowledgeable about food and cooking but are passionate about it too."

"…it is great to be in what feels like a professional environment – it feels as if we are really here to cook, not just be entertained."
