PRIVATE COOKERY CLASSES
Whether you’re celebrating a 60th birthday, planning a family get-together, or throwing a children’s party, our private cookery classes offer a truly memorable way to bring people together. From hands-on cooking to relaxed dining and tranquil gardens to enjoy, you'll have the entire space to yourselves—perfect for making memories around the table. Our ideal group size is 12, though we can comfortably accommodate up to 16. We're happy to tailor the experience to suit any dietary requirements or preferences.
​
Just 19 minutes by direct train from Edinburgh Waverley and moments from the East Coast trainline, the Yarrow Cookery School is perfectly positioned for private events. Set on East Lothian’s beautiful coastline, in a fully restored 450-year-old steading, the school offers free on-site parking, EV charging and coach access—making it easy for groups to visit from near or far.
​
Whether you're looking to knead, chop, sauté or simply sip your way through a one-of-a-kind experience, our private classes are all about connection, creativity, and laughter.
