Hiring Oughtershaw Hall holiday home and looking to hire a private chef to come and cook for a dinner party in the Yorkshire Dales?
I'm Shaun, travelling private chef for hire - I can provide private dining at Oughtershaw Hall. After agreeing a menu for your meal, I shop for the ingredients, bring all of my own kitchen equipment to the Yorkshire Dales, 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 Oughtershaw Hall
Oughtershaw Hall is a familiar kitchen for me, having cooked there before. If you're looking for a private chef who will travel to the Yorkshire Dales, have a look at what I do and get in touch. It would be my pleasure.
A gleaming kitchen after cooking at Oughtershaw Hall in Upper Wharfedale, Yorkshire Dales. Last time I cooked here I served a freshly prepared three course meal for a party of ten: fresh locally baked bread and olives; pan-fried chilli and garlic king prawns; chicken and chorizo roasted veg with crispy triplo potato chips; rhubarb and vanilla crumble with clotted cream ice cream …all with a kitchen left spotless and sparkling. What a fabulous holiday home and lovely guests – a pleasure to cook for.

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.

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.
