Meet The Chefs
The Little Cooking Pot began as a way of bringing people together around the table to share a meal of home cooked food. For Aitana & Sarah, it’s here that the magic of life happens. From this small seed, The Little Cooking Pot grew, into a regular Supperclub and later a seasonal and vegetarian catering company. Since then, they’ve been lucky to be welcomed into different kitchens around the world by the lovely locals they have come to meet on their travels and it is here that they’ve learnt to cook. In between the lines and around the margins of recipes, lie stories of family histories, cultural traditions and movements of people through time and space. It was these recipes, full of love and the flavours of life, that were kindly shared with Sarah & Aitana who in turn, share them with the people who come to sit around their table. The Little Cooking Pot cooks seasonal dishes using as much local produce as they can get their hands on. Community is at the heart of everything that they do and they are incredibly excited to set down their roots at Felin Uchaf.

We host regular evening events in the Celtic Roundhouse with storytellers and musicians coming from all over Europe and the UK, This magnificent subterranean performance and meeting space was built by schoolchildren and volunteers in 2008. There is a cauldron fire in the centre and there are fixed, cushioned, seating benches around the ring to accommodate around 60 people, though during the busiest months we welcome up to 100 people, using portable benches. There's a half time break for most events and the opportunity to stretch your legs, share a conversation, talk with the performers and enjoy delicious home made refreshments.
Posters will indicate the age suitability for some performances.
PLEASE NOTE: If you're coming to the centre for the first time - wait until you come INTO the village of RHOSHIRWAUN and see the brown and white Felin Uchaf Centre signs before turning off the main B4413 road. GPS systems can take you on a more circuitous route!
