A private chef finishing a plated meal

Private dining during a Dorset break

For a gathering around Bournemouth, Poole, Dorchester, Weymouth or a rural location, send the exact property postcode and your planned meal time. Group stays can involve different arrival times and kitchen access, so choose a chef start time that allows preparation before guests sit down. You can book up to eight hours per chef day.

From coastal properties to rural kitchens

Tell us about parking, unloading, entrance instructions and any restrictions on deliveries. At a holiday property, check oven space, hob capacity, refrigeration and the crockery available for the group. If the venue is away from transport links or the booking covers several days, tell us whether live-in accommodation is available.

What your private-chef booking includes

Your chef fee covers the chef’s booked time, up to eight hours per day. Our team matches the chef and confirms the arrangements directly with you. Tell us your cuisine preferences, allergies, dietary needs and kitchen details in the short booking form.

Building the meal around your guests

Include dietary requirements, preferred cuisine and the style of meal in the booking. If you select bespoke menu development, we create the menu for the occasion and brief the matched chef. Ingredient costs are confirmed separately by invoice. For more than twenty guests, request an individual quote so the team can assess the menu and staffing.

Private dining questions

What happens if my Dorset group has more than twenty people?

Enter the guest count and send the private dining request. The team provides an individual quote for larger groups before payment rather than applying the standard eight-to-twenty-guest day rate.

Is the advertised price per person?

The advertised private-chef fee is per chef, per day, for a party of eight to twenty guests. It covers up to eight hours at the times you select. Menu development, ingredients and any agreed accommodation are additional costs.

Can I book Christmas dinner or New Year’s Eve?

Choose Christmas dinner, New Year’s Eve or another occasion in the booking form. Select the actual dates and daily timings you need. The team confirms the chef match and practical arrangements directly with you.

Can I book fewer than eight guests?

The online private-dining service has a minimum of eight guests. For a different household requirement, contact the team to discuss what you need.

Can I ask a question before paying?

Yes. Use the booking-help form or email info@reliefchefs.co.uk. You can discuss your menu, property and additional service requirements with the team.
