Federico brings a hands-on Italian pasta evening to the kitchen of your stay. You roll up your sleeves and make fresh pasta from scratch — kneading the dough, then rolling and shaping it into tagliatelle and his hand-folded tortelli — before sitting down together to eat everything you've made, dressed in the sauces he brings along. It's relaxed and genuinely interactive: your hands are in the flour from the start, a glass to hand, no performance to watch from a distance. The evening flexes around your group. Keep it a pure masterclass and dinner, add a flight of wines paired by a sommelier, scale it up into a feast for a bigger celebration, or have Federico host a served supper club where you're looked after from start to finish. Based near Bath, he travels to Cotswolds stays with everything needed and handles the setup and clear-up, so all you bring is the appetite. Best for groups of around four to fourteen gathered at a stay — families, friends and celebrations — with smaller parties and larger gatherings arranged on request. No experience needed; everything is taught from the first fold.
Make it yours
A hands-on session making fresh pasta from scratch in your kitchen — kneading, rolling and shaping tagliatelle and filled tortelli by hand — then a sit-down dinner of everything you've made, finished with Federico's sauces. Properly interactive, warm and unhurried, with a glass to hand. Group prices on request.
A scaled-up, sociable version for bigger gatherings and special occasions: everyone hands-on, then a generous shared feast. Wine and beer tastings, nibbles, or a fine-dining course from a guest chef can be folded in. From this price, shaped to your party.
Tell Federico what you have in mind: the occasion, the group, the twist. They’ll come back with a quote shaped around it.
