For 2021 the Great British Bake Off has set up its iconic tent on the lawns of Down Hall Hotel in Essex.
Set in 110 acres of park and woodland, the luxury 98-bedroom hotel and spa was home for the contestants, judges and presenters as they isolated together to film the series earlier this year.
You can find out more about the venue including how to book a visit or overnight stay from the official website at DownHall.co.uk
The 2021 season of the Great British Bake Off once again has introduced twelve of the best home bakers in the UK to the show, going on a journey to bake, ice, whisk, beat and knead their way through ten weeks of testing challenges.
At the end of each week judges Paul and Prue will decide who’s going home and who is the week’s star baker.

They’re joined by Giuseppe Dell’Anno – 45-year-old Chief Engineer from Bristol; Jairzeno – 51-year-old Head of Finance from London; Jürgen – 56-year-old IT Professional from Sussex; Lizzie Acker – 28-year-old Car Production Operative from Liverpool; Maggie – 70-year-old Retired Nurse & Midwife from Dorset and Rochica – 27-year-old Junior HR Business Partner from Birmingham
