"The tour was definitely value for money. The holidays aren’t cheap but you know you’re going to get excellent accommodation, wonderful hosting and excellent (and limitless) food and drink. Well worth the price."
~ Karen, January 2012

"It’s a winning formula with a very good balance between cooking, lazing and trips out."
~ Jackie, October 2011

"The class so very hands on, all very regional and home style so that I felt I could cook all the dishes at home. I enjoyed every minute of it."
~ Rie, October 2011

"During my stay in Sicily, I felt very welcomed and relaxed. The food was delicious and home made. We had a Pilates class on the beach, which was a fun and different experience. I loved it, honestly, this holiday was above my expectations."
~ Oksana, October 2011

"The holiday was excellent value for money as all included- only had to buy some souvenirs!"
~ Celia, September 2011

"The staff were pleasant, welcoming, interested in us and making sure our needs were met – they injected a sense of fun and laughter into all the lessons and other activities. We learned so much about local traditions and customs and the area, something that I would never have learned if I had gone as a tourist on my own."
~ Alison, September 2011

"Do you think the tour was value for money? Yes – seems expensive on paper but when you work out what is included (everything!) and the great quality of everything you are getting it is great value."

"Outstanding views, beautiful area, very relaxing – quiet, with beautiful views of the sunset."
~ Karen, June 2011

"The staff were excellent, friendly, helpful, couldn’t do enough for us.  I would particularly like to mention that I had a few food limitations and not once was it forgotten, either in the lesson or at meal times."
~ Lynne, June 2011

"The quantity of food and wine as well as the quality, not to mention the exceptional service made this a good value tour."
