Graduate Video: Gidleigh Park Hotel
By: Chefs Academy
Gideligh Park Hotel is a 5 star luxury country house hotel set in the heart of Dartmoor National Park. Famed for its culinary credentials and award-winning restaurant, Gidleigh Park offers an air of tranquillity and romance within a Tudor-style country house, beautifully furnished and set within 107 acres of mature grounds.
Many of the graduates of the Ashburton Chefs Academy have worked in the restaurant kitchens over the years and in this video we speak to Executive Chef, Chris Eden about his food ethos and catch up with some Ashburton chef graduates working there.
Joining Gidleigh Park in September 2019, Chris Eden arrived from Driftwood in Cornwall after 12 illustrious years as Head Chef where he was the first Cornish born chef to hold a Michelin Star in their home county. Retaining the star ever since, Chris was awarded a Michelin Star at Gidleigh Park following the release of the Michelin Guide 2023.
