Gluten Free at River Cottage - A Weekend in the Westcountry


For anyone wondering about whether they should head off to River Cottage in Devon to bake up some gluten free goodness, on a Thursday in November - I'm here to tell you yes!

Take the weekend off and start your Devon odyssey with my course at River Cottage on Thursday 17th November. We'll be baking Cheaty Chestnut Sourdough, buttery almond pastry and the best coconut brownies ever! Whilst your gluten free treats are baking you can fill your lungs with delicious Devon air, enjoy a two course River Cottage lunch and say hello to the sheep, cows and chickens on the farm.



On Saturday you could potter through Bridport's lovely street market, have lunch at the Bull Hotel (who are very good at catering for gluten free diets) before heading over to Poole for the Festival of Massed Voices.

Sunday should always be lazy, so maybe you could take a leisurely walk in the lovely dunes at Studland Nature Reserve and enjoy a Sunday Roast at the Knoll Beach Cafe?

Sounds like a great reason for a long weekend to me!
