Can you cook at venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is Arundel close to London?
About 49 miles from central London.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.
Is the paella cooked on site?
Yes. We arrive with everything we need and cook it there and then, serving it hot from the pan.
