The Grange is situated in Whatley, a small hamlet in Somerset only 15 miles from the Georgian city of Bath, and the market town of Frome is just over 2 miles away. We are renowned for our warm friendly atmosphere. With the help of our staff we try our best to make all students, including those from abroad, feel very at the grange in our home. Every student is different, whether it be the speed with which they learn or the number of blankets they like on their bed - we are flexible and will try to help in any way that we can to make everyone feel comfortable throughout their stay with us.

A file containing the recipes used during the course is provided for each student. Aprons and all the required equipment are provided.

Students are accommodated at The Grange which is our purpose built home - it is large, light and airy and forms a courtyard with the 17th century farmhouse where William and Jane live. It is set in 20 acres of rich undulating farmland. A stream flows through our wooded valley, which makes a tranquil escape for quiet walks. It is a relaxed country home which is well decorated and has a warm, friendly atmosphere. Some single rooms are available but they are limited and carry a supplementary charge.

We have a tennis court and boules, croquet, badminton and rounders can also be played in our grounds. We have a games room with pool table, satellite TV and music. There is a computer available for students to collect and send e-mails. A golf course is close by and there are miles of beautiful walks, so don’t forget the Wellington boots.
