A bit about me
After graduating with a degree in food science and food nutrition I worked at Le Manoir aux Quatre Saisons. Since then and for nearly 20 years I have worked as a private chef. My love of cooking, all things food and my appetite for adventure, has taken me to the highlands of Scotland, the arid hills of Southern Spain, chalets and chateaux in the Alps, a remote island off the coast of Maine (with only an inflatable boat to get me to the shops), the galley of The Royal Yacht Brittania and the kitchens of Kofi Annan, Hugh Grant and HRH The Prince of Wales. As personal chef to HRH The Prince of Wales I catered a full schedule of engagements. I am now based in Devon.


"A delicious cook" - Hugh Grant
Family party
"We were so grateful that Kate was available to cater for my daughter's wedding in May 2023. We had invited 150 guests and Kate devised the most wonderful menu. We were bowled over with her efficiency, expertise in menu choices and absolute reliability. Nothing was too much trouble. It was obvious from the start that Kate would do us proud and the guests afterwards gave us so many compliments. Her wedding breakfast was a triumph.
I am sure that we will ask Kate to help us again for family celebrations in the future. We cannot recommend her highly enough." - Lady Stewart Chiswick and Salcombe

"I wanted to email you to say how delicious your canapés were, they were outstanding. The presentation of each tray was absolutely beautiful, the serving staff were efficient and polite, delivering everything with a smile and the compliments haven't stopped flooding in about the catering, I’ve never known such enthusiasm for party food before. So, thank you so much to you and your team, you nailed it, highly professional and I would recommend to anyone." - Teresa and Jonathan Petit
"We are living in Dubai but wanted to come home to the Cotswolds to have our two children christened. We needed someone to organise the event in our absence. After listening to our requirements Kate found us a venue, suggested menus and had the day set up with ease. We were delighted with the food she provided paired with lovely wines - delicious and exactly what we had hoped for. Her presence on the day meant I didn’t have to do a thing and our guests throughly enjoyed everything she made. Kate is professional without being too formal and contributed greatly to the success of a very special day…….thank you.” - Mark and Nettie Ryder
