A Vegan Toolkit in April 2026

Are you a new vegan or an old hand stuck in a rut? Frustrated about eating the same old unsatisfying dishes? Struggling to feed the vegan in your life? Wanting to cut down on your consumption of animal products? If that’s you, we’ve got you covered whatever your level.

By the end of this 4 day, 5 night cooking holiday you will:

• be able to create satisfying and delicious vegan food every day with no compromise
• have a toolkit of ideas and techniques to create your own dishes and veganize old favourites.
• know all about must-have vegan storecupboard ingredients
• be able to wow your guests, including omnivores
• understand nutrition
• satisfy those cheese cravings!
• not feel hungry all the time!

All of this means that by the end of the course you’ll be a confident, inspired vegan cook, unafraid to experiment or try new ideas.

The detail of what we cover depends on what’s good in the market that week but you’ll make 6-8 dishes per day including:

• Making Tofu tasty
• Delicious and indulgent desserts
• Street food favourites including burgers, falafel, bhajis and flat breads
• Techniques for getting the best from vegetables including braising, searing and baking
• Making your own sauces and condiments from scratch such as mayonnaise and gravy
• Vegan cheeses
• Decadent vegan snacks

This course can be booked with or without accommodation.  Often we don’t have enough rooms to accommodate everyone, so we’ve teamed up with an excellent local b&b a very short walk away which means that everyone who wants a room can have one.  All our rooms are single occupancy with en suite bathrooms unless you book with someone you want to share with.  You are welcome to share your room with someone who isn’t doing the course, and they are welcome to join us each day for a light breakfast.  However if they want other meals, there’s a supplement to pay at the time of booking of €250 .  There is no supplement for people doing the course.  There’s more detail on our accommodation page.
