Working with Two Star Michelin chefs such as Nico Ladenis and Raymond Blanc have helped fine tune Darren’s cooking and working at hotels such as the Gleneagles Hotel, Auchterarder and the Bath Spa Hotel have taught Darren that consistently high standards will bring success.
His first head chef position was at Danesfield House, Marlow where he helped to achieve the status as one of the finest country house hotels in England. At the age of 28yrs Darren returned home to the northwest to lead the Highmoor restaurant to Lancashire life magazines restaurant of the year.
Darren joined Carringtons in 1999 and alongside wife Helen became co-director in January 2004. A local lad he firmly believes in the use of local produce and suppliers whenever possible and this has forged great relationships with all our main suppliers who can tailor make to any requirements that we may have.
Your entire team helped make my daughter’s wedding a wonderful occasion and a day that we will all remember for a very long time.
What can we say? We have had nothing but compliments about the food on our wedding day, from the canapés to the wedding breakfast and even the bacon butties in the evening. Everything was really spot on, I just wish we could rewind and do it all again, we would not change a single thing! You guys are the best! Thank you for making our wedding day so special!
Can we just say a big thank you to everyone at Carringtons for making our day so special. The wedding breakfast you prepared surpassed all our expectations and we are so grateful for the wonderful service we received from your team.

Thank you for the excellent service you provided recently for my Valentines Day surprise. From to finish the process was easy and efficient. From ordering the food to the delivery to my home, Carringtons made it a simple process.
Once the food had arrived the instructions that accompanied the delivery helped make me look like a master chef! The instructions covered how to cook and then present the dishes which took away any stress I may have felt.
I have no hesitation in recommending Carringtons Catering for their high quality service and food. I will always leave it to Carringtons and never to chance.
