What you'll do
I am located 30 minutes from Belfast in a thatched cottage on the shores of beautiful Strangford Lough. This is an area of outstanding natural beauty. The traditional Irish bread making experience takes place in my farmhouse kitchen. My home can be accessed by public transport or you can travel by car. Start time is usually 11am and we would normally finish around 1.30pm. You will arrive to my homemade Soda Fruit Bannock as it comes out of the oven. This will be served with tea and coffee. Then it's times to roll up your sleeves and get floury! We won't weigh or measure anything - these Northern Irish Breads will be made in the traditional way! All breads will be made on your Griddle and will be cooked within 10 - 15 minutes! You'll make Soda bread, Wheaten bread and Potato bread. You will also enjoy a demo of my Soda Focaccia bread. You'll have worked up an appetite and Tracey will have set the tables with her fine bone China. You'll enjoy freshly made warm breads along with some of Tracey's homemade treats. You'll take away a big bag full of your homemade breads and you'll receive a copy of the recipes for everything that you have tasted and made in the session.

Traveller reviews
Wonderful time w Tracey and her team at the farm learning to make fresh soda bread at their lovely country farm. Nice folks with warm hospitality and a quaint cozy atmosphere.
Fantastic family experience that was ideal for multiple ages. Great guidance from the staff and a really good afternoon that left us full of delicious bread. And dont mention the naughty goat...
I can't say enough about how great of an experience this was. Tracey was a lovely and kind host that clearly knows her stuff. She has created an incredibly comfortable and welcoming space - it's the perfect setting for some traditional bread making. If you like eating or baking, this experience is for you. I would give it 10 stars if I could.
This is sooo worth the hike out of Belfast to this lovely little excursion. This place is a gorgeous little house right off a beautiful Lough. We were able to walk down to the louh and I’ve never felt more at peace than there. Our teacher Irene was sooo patient with us as we were complete beginners. The tea and bannock/soda bread we were fed before starting made it feel more personable so that we could understand the differences between them and what we will make. We were also able to go out and see the farm animals in the yard which made this experience feel you are living on a farm or homestead. This place was picturesque and the bread making was so much fun!
We stopped at Tracey's to learn to make soda bread and for a lovely lunch. We were welcomed into their home as if we were family. The lunch was fabulous and the atmosphere was so relaxing. Their back yard is so inviting. I cannot stress enough what a wonderful stop this is. It is a must do when in Northern Ireland. #LuxuryGold
We were on a tour so there were 29 of us and we all made our very own soda bread. But you don’t have to be on a big tour. If you’re looking for an interactive and fun cooking experience, this one is for you! After Tracey shows you how, you’ll don an apron and try for yourself. You can eat one of your breads slathered with butter and homemade jam. And take the rest home for the next day. If it’s a nice day, wander around the yard and enjoy its beauty and some of the animals. Such a fun experience!
What a lovely way to spend an early afternoon. We baked bannock which is a soda bread baked on a hot griddle. Then we had our bread with a lovely lunch. You spend your time at her lovely farmhouse. I highly recommend this experience!
It was so much fun having tea and bread with 32 travelers at Tracey’s. She demonstrated how to make soda bread and anyone who wanted to make it could do so. She was very warm and welcoming, and encouraged us to go in her backyard to see their farm animals.
