We offer in-house cooking schools - hands on and/or demonstrations in a light-filled commercial teaching kitchen at our guesthouse Flinders Island Retreat, Cooma House, where we cater for private functions too. Minimum numbers apply or book the whole accommodation for your getaway for a time away with friends or a special get-away like an intimate wedding. It's not conspicuous consumption at Cooma House. We have what we use and we use what we have on this amazing island - and we don't mind sharing . Your host and owner, Wendy Jubb Stoney is a trained teacher with a background of cooking with some of Australia's best chefs. Understand the science of cooking. Indulge yourself with meals using produce from the garden and the local environment. Take the recipes away with you in a bespoke folder to use later. Sit at the century-old dining table and enjoy being served, matched with local wine. Stay a few days, slow right down. You are catered for at our guesthouse with five guest rooms and en-suites with separate toilet. The attached accommodation has bespoke furnishings and artworks. The sitting rooms, library, open fire, north facing courtyard have views to the sea, whatever the season.
