Looking to hire a private chef in Swaledale?
I'm Shaun, a travelling private chef for hire in Swaledale. I come to you - your home or holiday cottage - and cook! After agreeing a menu for your meal, I shop for the ingredients, bring all of my own kitchen equipment to Swaledale, cook the meal, serve, clean up and leave the kitchen spotless - allowing you to relax and enjoy the food and company.
Swaledale is familiar stomping ground as I cook throughout the North of England - Yorkshire, Lancashire, Cumbria and beyond. If you're looking for a private chef who will travel to your home, holiday cottage or hired venue in Swaledale, have a look at what I do and get in touch. It would be my pleasure.
I arranged a surprise 30th birthday celebration for my partner and wanted to make the evening extra special. After finding Shaun online and doing some research, I was blown away by how incredible his food looked.
From the very start, Shaun was fantastic helping us craft the perfect menu for our group of 14 while accommodating various dietary requirements. His communication and professionalism throughout the process made everything effortless.
On the evening of the celebration, Shaun arrived promptly and immediately got to work. Despite never having cooked in that particular kitchen before, he moved around with ease, as if he’d worked there for years. Every ingredient he used was fresh and locally sourced, and he took the time to explain each course as it was served.
The portions were generous, and every dish was bursting with flavour. The entire experience was flawless, and our guests were beyond impressed.
If you’re looking for a private chef who delivers outstanding food and a seamless dining experience, I can’t recommend Shaun highly enough!

We had a fabulous family dinner with Shaun. The tapas feast was a perfect way for us to share delicious food as well as each other’s company. Shaun was attentive to every need - even preparing a separate meal for the kids.
We couldn’t possibly recommend him more highly - 11/10.
Can’t wait to get back to Yorkshire and hire him again.
