About

Step inside a 16th century Cotswold thatched cottage to learn to bake English scones, visiting a village church and castle with locals.

This unmissable quintessential experience will get you making your own English scones in a typical Cotswold kitchen, using locally sourced ingredients and of course a local recipe.

While the scones are cooling, you will enjoy a short guided walking tour around the Cotswold ironstone village of Hanwell, visiting a 13th century church and a castle where King James l and Oliver Cromwell both stayed, followed by your cream tea with homemade jam and clotted cream inside the Cotswold cottage. Come hungry for history, heritage and of course scones with lashing of homemade jam and clotted cream!
