April Showers – 5 Things To Do When it Rains!!

1. Cheshire Cooks

You don’t need fair weather to enjoy a cookery course at a school in the heart of beautiful Cheshire. 

Cheshire Cooks was founded by Philip Martin (Chef Patron at The Green Bough Hotel and Olive Tree Restaurant in Chester) whose passion for food and innate knowledge, together with a desire to share his experience with others, resulted in the creation of his very own cookery school in Cheshire.

Why not make a weekend of it and stay at Philip and Janice’s hotel The Green Bough, in the heart of Chester. If the weather fairs up, you can also enjoy a spot of shopping in the town centre.

2. Rothay Manor’s Special Interest Holidays
