Book now for bread baking courses…
Eastcourt Manor is set in the Medway countryside near Rainham, Kent, about an hour from central London. The house has a rich and varied history dating back to the early 14th century.
Everything you will learn can be done at home without fancy commercial equipment — and course sizes are limited to ensure all participants get hands-on individual attention and tuition.
Your tutor, Steve, has been baking bread using sourdough cultures for over ten years. He is a dedicated self-taught baker, using a mix of techniques picked up from others and developed through elaborate (and messy) trial–and–error.
