Founded by Lis and Christiaan, our journey began with a collection of independently owned tearooms and guesthouses in the beautiful Cotswolds. Inspired by the joy of hospitality, we created the Cotswold Baking School to share the recipes and techniques behind some of our most beloved tearoom treats.
Our teenage children often join us on weekends, adding energy and laughter to the kitchen. For us, baking is as much about family moments as it is about flour and sugar.
Community is at the heart of what we do. Every month, we host a social gathering for local retirees, serving tea, coffee, and fresh pastries — a tradition that’s as much about friendship as it is about food. These moments of connection inspire the welcoming atmosphere our guests love.
