Food

Our food on the day comes courtesy of Bakestone, founded by Hannah Thomas.

Various salad plates Peaches and pancakes

Based in the South Downs, Bakestone celebrates the seasons, gathering local, sustainably-farmed provisions to create memorable culinary experiences. They cook naturally and thoughtfully to reflect the time and space, paying attention to detailed flavour and trends. They take high-quality ingredients, cook from scratch and bring them to you crafted with care.

Hannah is an intuitive, self-taught chef who has gained her experience through hosting her own events and working in various kitchens across the country. Notable experiences include working at a beachside fish & open fire restaurant and more recently a weekly baking, menu planning, and monthly wood fire supper club at the Kinsbrook vineyard.

Bakestone make special events come to life and we can’t wait to feast with them.
