Hiring Ivy Cottage holiday home and looking to hire a private chef to come and cook for a dinner party in Casterton?
I'm Shaun, travelling private chef for hire - I can provide private dining at Ivy Cottage. After agreeing a menu for your meal, I shop for the ingredients, bring all of my own kitchen equipment to Casterton, cook the meal, serve, clean up and leave the kitchen spotless - allowing you to relax and enjoy the food and company.

Private Chef for Hire at Ivy Cottage
Ivy Cottage is a familiar kitchen for me, having cooked there before. If you're looking for a private chef who will travel to Casterton, have a look at what I do and get in touch. It would be my pleasure.
Ivy Cottage is a great kitchen to cook in, allowing me to offer my full menu in each season. If you like, there’s plenty of room to sit and chat with the chef, then separate dining room is a cosy cottage delight – it takes seconds for me to bring to food in.

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.
