Welcome to The Culinary Cottage - I’m so glad you’re here.

Based in Yorkshire, UK, The Culinary Cottage is run by me, Inês - I’m a keen but amateur photographer and my main aim in life is to inspire happier times around your table. I want to teach you all things hosting, homewear and homely cooking, so please, follow along wherever you’d like to join me.

Food isn’t just fuel.

It’s also a feeling. It’s home, wherever that may be, however long you’ve been there, whatever you’re eating.

It’s who you’re with, how you’re eating, what you’re eating on, the stories being told as you eat, and all the smells and sounds you can hear around your plate. The laughter, the jazz, the sweet but subtle candle burning in the background. Food is, fundamentally, an experience for every sense of the body.

Food is so much more than just fuel.

“The Culinary Cottage is a feeling of safety - it’s the smell of freshly baked scones on a Sunday with no-one questioning how much cream you dollop on; it’s a space that appreciates the art of hosting and above all, seeks to make all those sat around the Culinary Cottage table feel included, cared for and like they’re home, even if they’re not.”
