We have a very good way here at the Kitchen in the Castle to take the headache out of your shopping. It is of course the Christmas Gift Voucher. Over the year we had a lot of very happy vouchers recipients that came to our classes and the comment "the best present I ever had" was heard often enough to be able to mention it here without sounding too boastful.  The Gift Vouchers can be bought for a range of any value, from €10 and used towards the cost of all our courses. Prices start at €25 for a demonstration, so there really is something to suit every pocket.  We have a large variety of classes to choose from, every taste and ability should easily be catered for. You can buy them by phone 01 839 6182. 
                                      It is a bit early for greetings, so on behalf of all of us can I quietly whisper ..., have a very H.... C.... and hope Santa will be good to you.
