Always wanted to learn a few cooking tips and tricks from a superstar? Well, here’s your chance as Good Housekeeping is inviting you to join the ultimate trip for foodies.
This autumn and spring 2022, we’re hosting a culinary escape to Norfolk, where you can meet cooking legend Delia Smith.
Having taught the country to cook for over 50 years and selling more than 21 million books, Delia is a national treasure known for her no-nonsense approach to cooking.
During our incredible five-day staycation, you’ll be hosted by Delia for an incredible day of eating, drinking and learning for a full day workshop with chef Alex Mackay, cocktail expert Simon Atkinson and wine expert Jason Banner.
The fun-packed experience includes a three-course lunch with wine tasting, a cooking demonstration with Alex, cocktail masterclass and a special Q&A session with Delia and the team – this is your chance to ask the cooking legend about her kitchen secrets!
You’ll also dine at Delia’s Restaurant and Bar, and this is just the start of your Norfolk adventure.
As we don’t do things by halves at Good Housekeeping Holidays, our unforgettable escape will allow you to take in the region’s glorious countryside as you enjoy a ride on the Bure Valley Railway.
There will also be a chance to explore the breathtaking Norfolk Broads on a paddle steamer and you’ll visit Blickling Hall, a National Trust stately home so grand it’s fit for Netflix’s Bridgerton.
And that’s not all, as you’ll visit coastal towns and villages on the North Norfolk Coast, including Burnham Market, and spend time in Norwich.
