Our Chef de Parties
Working with our state-of-the-art equipment, our chefs are some of the most passionate and inspirational in the South West. A focus is always on our food - ensuring each dish is as beautiful as the next, with the flavours of each component being highlighted to their full potential. Dishes are always fresh and seasonal, with our chefs using produce both from our Estate garden team and our trusted local suppliers.
Our CDPs play a crucial role in our kitchen. The day-to-day duties of each section will be your responsibility, and commis chefs will look to you for guidance and development.
Previous experience in high-end food preparation and a passion for seasonal produce is a must.
