The BBC television personality and noted author will be headlining the nearby 2013 Gloucester Quays Food Festival from July 19-21. Held annually, the festival brings top name chefs, unrivalled menus and live music and entertainment to the English countryside.

The Gloucester Quays Food Festival will be celebrating its third year in 2013, and this year's three-day event will showcase food from around the UK as well as home-grown Gloucestershire and Cotswolds delicacies. Entry is free, and food lovers will be able to sample from more than 60 tempting food stalls. Live demos, hands-on food and drink master classes and plenty of live music and entertainment will round out the festivities. For those who would like to combine their love of food with their passion for shopping, the Gloucester Quays Food Festival is set in the heart of the Historic Docks, home to Gloucester Quays Outlet which offers unbelievable savings.

On July 20th, Gloucester Quays Food Festival host Chef James Martin will be making a celebrity appearance at Ellenborough Park for one night only to celebrate delicious food, wine, and goodwill in honor of the Gold Ticket Charity Dinner. Held in association with Cotswold Style Magazine, the Gold Ticket Charity event, benefiting the Gloucestershire Community Foundation, Cobalt Health and Cruse Bereavement, will begin with a sumptuous canapés reception, followed by a four-course dinner with wine accompaniment. Before the evening is over, Chef Martin will join guests for a meet & greet, where he will mingle with the crowd and discuss his unique cooking style.

Ellenborough Park prides itself on the high quality of the cuisine throughout the historic manor house, whether afternoon tea in the Great Hall or dinner at the property's fine dining restaurant, the Beaufort Dining Room, the quality and service is second to none. Executive Head Chef, David Kelman, has represented his native Wales in many culinary competitions, including the 2012 Culinary Olympics, and has been privileged to cook for her majesty, Queen Elizabeth, Charles, Prince of Wales, and England's Prime Minister, David Cameron. The wine program at Ellenborough Park, led by Head Sommelier Clio Giudici, has won numerous awards since its opening, including the prestigious Wine Spectator Award of Excellence two years in a row.

Guests are encouraged to spend this weekend of food and cultural festivities at Ellenborough Park, with nightly stays starting from £265 (approximately USD $415) for a traditional double or twin bedroom.
