Looking to hire a private chef in Cumbria?
I'm Shaun, a travelling private chef for hire in Cumbria. I come to you - your home or holiday cottage - and cook! After agreeing a menu for your meal, I shop for the ingredients, bring all of my own kitchen equipment to Cumbria, cook the meal, serve, clean up and leave the kitchen spotless - allowing you to relax and enjoy the food and company.
Cumbria is familiar stomping ground as I cook throughout the North of England - Yorkshire, Lancashire, Cumbria and beyond. If you're looking for a private chef who will travel to your home, holiday cottage or hired venue in Cumbria, have a look at what I do and get in touch. It would be my pleasure.
I cover much of Cumbria – particularly the South (Kirkby Lonsdale, Kendal, Morecambe Bay and Windermere) and West (the Western Lakes, up towards Penrith, the North Pennines and Western Yorkshire Dales), but it’s also a pleasure heading towards the Cumbrian coast. When I’m not in the kitchen you’ll often find me fell walking or kayaking – this part of the world was my playground as a child – and is familiar territory as a local private chef.
Shaun came in and cooked for a 50th birthday party where one of the party was gluten free and dairy free. We had a beautiful 3 course meal, flavours were delicious and all ingredients were top quality. Shaun was great with all the organisation... he is friendly, diligently works in the background and left a very tidy kitchen. Would highly recommend.

How much does it cost?
I charge a set amount to travel to you plus a price per person for the meal. For an estimate, you can get an instant quote
The cost is fully inclusive - it includes the shopping, prep, travel, cooking, service and cleaning up, leaving the kitchen spotless.
A £100 deposit books and secures the date. Half of the remainder is due a fortnight before the meal, with the balance payable on the night, either when I arrive or after the meal.
