‘It’s in the kitchen where the warmth of shared memories, laughter and life create a recipe that spans the generations.’

The Old Rectory Kitchen offers a tailored catering service focused on providing our clients with a unique dining experience, using traditional methods and high quality ingredients.

what we can offer

Dawn-Elizabeth and Simon of The Old Rectory Kitchen will help you create delicious menu choices as part of their complete catering, dining and event management service. They will help you add inspiration and artistry to create mouth-watering dishes for your guests.

Their ingredients are mindfully sourced – local where possible, or homegrown in our kitchen garden, known as Hedgehog Corner (the inspiration for our logo). The Old Rectory Kitchen has a strong ethos about supporting local food producers and the rural community.
