Baking Classes in Somerset

Somerset has a strong concentration of baking schools in and around Bath, alongside options further into the county's rural heartland. The Bertinet Kitchen in Bath, run by baker and author Richard Bertinet, is one of the UK's best-known bread schools, with classes covering croissants, pastry, and flatbreads. The Cookery Studio and Vale House Kitchen add further options in the city. Further south, The Gift of Bread near Martock combines breadmaking with sourdough in the Somerset Levels. Cider orchards, farmhouse cheese, and a long tradition of fruit-growing give the county a genuine connection to artisan food production.
